PARIS. September 4.-N1akers Of arti-

so busy as during the past year. Hos
pitfalls all over Europe are crying out
for legs and arms by the thousands.
Many OF these artificial limbs. for the
sake OF rightness, are made from a

OF the most famous makers get their
material from the Bank of France
When the stock Of old and withdrawn
banknotcs gets sufficiently large they
are brought into n special room and
before high functionaries of the bank
they are made into an indistinguisha bl G
mash, which is sold to the orthopoed-
lists.
SO. when one OF the mutilated heroes
limps along he may truly say that his
leg represents a fortune.

PANAMA ADDS TO POLICE
Number of officials and Men Reaches
Total OF 1.3OO.

PANAMA, September 4-Many new
policemen arc daily being added to tho
already numerous Policia Nacional of
the Republic of Panama. Three months
ago the national police are reported to
have numbered about 1000 men and
officers, while to-day the number OF
officers and men has reached 1900.
The national police already costs the
republic more than s1.250.00O gold a
year. and much opposition has beenl
heard in many quarters to the recentI
heavy increase which greatly adds tot
the expense. Many of the new officers
and men are to be stationed in the
two cities of Panama and Colon US
1t is declared in government circles
that the new men are being added sinE
anticipation Of the presidential and ma s.
tional assembly election next year. L.
is pointed out that they will be needed
to preserve order and assure a fair
election at what is looked forward to-.
as tho bitterest campaign in the re-
public's history. 1t is also stated that
the new policemen are being enrolled
so that interference to preserve peace
and constitutional authority by thas
United States officials will DO unneceps..

HOW GERMAN RANKS
SOLDIERS OF ALLIES

The special correspondent OF Paris
newspaper at the Russian front tells
OF talk he had with superior Rus
sian officer. a prince we'll known in
Paris society. This officer had been
charged with the duty OF questioning
German prisoners. He found that, in
their opinion. the French were superior
in artillery. the Russians i'll cavalry,
and the British in infantry.
(Which is the best infantry?" the
Russian asked.
1T is that which. in proportion to its
number, kills the most then 1t is the
infantry Of the professional English
regiments which came forward at the
beginning OF the campaign. These foot
soldiers never fired at random they
aimed as at target. and have no
equals for landing you ball in the
skin.
The French troops, carried away by
their enthusiasm, seek always the ha nd :
to-hand lighting, where, besides. they
are terrible. But 1t Is a general OBJ
servation that they often fire too high,
and we hear their balls whistle over
our heads. The same observation ap-
plies 10 the Russian Infantry"

"FRENCH" DESIGNERS
ARR; MOSTLY GERMANS

woman who is designer in Paris
for several leading New York houses
of modes, says that before the war the
most highly paid and most successful
designers of new modes in Paris were
Germans.
1t is to them this woman ascribcs the
extravagant and bizarre fashions OF
late years, which carried caprice into
fantasy, and reused the French people
themselves to wonder If after all their
old taste was gone or going.
The French caricatmist, Sem, insist
ed that tho modes OF Paris were in
spired from Berlin, and poked fierce
sarcasm at his women-folk for beir 6
such fools AS not to see that they were
making themselves ridiculous In tho
eyes OF the world by submitting to
wear such atrocities. These German
designers vanished when the war be-
gan. and left the heads Of some famous
houses In FIX. They did not know
whore to turn for others to replace
them. This Is the reason, she says.
that SO few modes have been launched
from Paris since tho war began.

gained notoriety as the result OF the
zabern incident. has been killed in
action.

anti-German feeling. Lieutenant Won
Forstner provoked several clashes be-

told the soldiers to bayonot any one
seen insulting the German bag. He
himself sabered lame shoemaker.
For this exploit he was tried and SEN
fenced to forty-three days imprison-
ment. although strongly upheld by
Colonel Won Reuter-. his commander.
