SOMETHING ABOUT
FAMOUS WAR HILL
Hill No. 60 Only Slight
Rising; In German
Hands.

! lCorrcspoudonca Of the Associated Prcss)
! DGNkIRK, Aug lS.-The present
! position ato Hin No 60, which the
| British military authorities recently
! pdmitted had lapsed back into Ger
man possession, lis peculiar and of
great interest
The hill is really nothing but
| knoll Of gently rising ground that
| forms the end of the kleiu-Zillebeke
ridge The German trenches run in
/ a double tier along the crest and
upper slope while the British
| trenches form an irregular line along
ihc edge of the lower slope The
Germans are at the top Of the hill,
while the British are a little way up
! the side of it.
The whole face Of the hill presents
q picture of the widest confusion
Everywhere are huge craters, the re-
suit of mine explosions on the night
| of the British attack. Torn and gap
ing saudbags are scattered in prOfu-
sion, broken rifles, odds and ends Of
equipment of all kinds, smashed barb
wire, ana a mass Of other debris lies
in bcwilderng variety down to hill
side, the whole half hidden in the
long grass that has sprung up be-
tween the trenches.
The trenches twist and wind in a
remarkable manner. At one point
there is an old communication trench
running from the British lines straight
into the heart of the German position,
and down this two barricades have
been erected one on the English side
and one on the German side. Here
the opposing forces come within six
yards of each other. Between the
rival barricaders there stretches a
short patch Of ground shut in on
either hand by the crumbling walls of
the old trench.
At one spot railway bridge spans
the British position. and in the cutting
beneath it a large pool of stagnant
water has collected Beyond it
stretches the railway line, the rails
torn and twisted and partly covered
with the weeds growing between the
ties. The line is under direct fire
from the German lines, and to cross
1T in the open would mean certain
death from snipers in the opposite
trench forty yards away, In the pool
below the bridge a score or more of
bodies have been lying for some
weeks, and no man dares approach
to bring them out for burial.

GERMAN BEER MAY
Be CONFISCATED
Unless Brewers Consent to
Give Beverage to
Soldiers.

BERLIN, Aug. 1S.-Confiscation OF
4 part Of the German beer production
is possible though not probable
step to be expected because of the
abnormal state of affairs existing in
Germany today. Confiscation will be
resorted to by the government only
in case the breweries fail to set aside
a certain percentage of their normal
production-2O per cent-for the use
Of the army
Even the contemplation Of such a
step indicates the importance which
beer has in Germany ana puts it into
exactly the same category with bread
and meat.
In the semi-official announcement
denying that any confiscation1 is con-
templated Immediately, II is definitely
stated that this step will become nee
6ssary only if the breweries, contrary
to expectation, fail to supply volun-
tartly that amount OF the brew which
is regarded as indispensable"
with the strongly patriotic feel
ings that inspire all branches of our
people" continues the announcement.
'it is assumed without question that
the breweries will bear present con-
ditions in mind and will be willing to
do their share toward the well-being
of our troops"
The report adds that the soldiers
have to buy the beer which is indis-
Iensable to their strengthening and
well-being" out of their own pockets,
a circumstance which of necessity die
tates to the army authorities in their
establishment of prices paid or to be
paid.

HOW TO WRITE. A WAR PLAY,
knowledge Of Military % Matters Is
Least Thlng NCCCsSArY.

| care not II you knew nothing
about an army Nobody else is any
better off than you are. All they
know about an army is that its mem.
bers come onto the stage slapping the
dust out of their clothes. Actors do
this on purpose, ! I'm informed. They
pour lot Of dust onto themselves
while standing i'm the wing, and then
they go out behind the foOtlights and
slap it all off again. This is war.
The audience in this country never
knows when a war play is drivel. Some
absurd actor may give them a laugh
now and then, or the author may be
a little too raw in spots; but a good
stage manager can always pull the
wool over the eyes or a civilian pop

on his shoulders. A captain is a man

The other day when sun
Was beating hot ! saw
A man with loaded team.
The road was soft and wheels
Sank deep. His team was worn
And showed the signs of
Careless keep. | listened while
lie cursed and beat upon their
Backs with rocks and club.
| saw them strive to pull
And fail and strive to pull again.
And as ! came to where they
Stood, | saw the blood was
Running fast from sores beneath
Their collar pads. IaSlled
The man if this he knew and
Facing me with angry look
He answered, "No, it isn't that; it
Hant the sores that s botherin them
It's downright cussedness, and
With a curse he beat again
Upon their bOny sides.
Men like that should be compelled
To walk along a narrow trail
OF Jagged rocks ON naked
Tender feet and when the
Blood was Oozing from thousand
Cuts and they were prone to
Sit and rest, to jab them
With a sharpened stick and
Make them hurry on.

patches from abroad reporting Ger
man press comment did not contribute
TO the persistence of injudicious hope
fulness respecting Germanys official
attitude, and Washington conjecture
was obviously less optimistic. This was
responsible for a depressed opening in
stocks which was swiftly succeeded by
an all around rally. Short covering
encountered constructive purchases
and moderate competition of this sort
disclosed a scanty supply Of stocks
which lasted all day
Foreign Exchange Very Weak.
Again the foreign exchange market
presented features of emphatic signi-
ficancs in their proof of the increasing
strength of American finance and the
increasing strain abroad. All forms OF
remittances were weak. French ex-
change was extraordinarily weak,
checks being quoted at b.42, n p~.ce
for which recollection was unable TO
recall any precedent here. At the
same time with sterling at Paris away
up, sterling exchange sold in this
market down to its previous low level.
Italian bills exhibited renewed weak
ness which correspondent with the
character of the news reports from
Rome. On all accounts there was
ground for predicting n large expan.
sion OF tho gold import movement.
