BIG LOSS IN NET REVENUE
President Nudge of Rock Island in An
nual Report Shows Why Roads
Need Increase.

New York-Some insight into the
railroads side of the rate argument
was disclosed in the annual report of
resident H. U. Nudge of the Rock
Island system submitted to the stock
holders of the road A chapter of the
report was entitled "A Twelve Year
Review" and it was this chapter that
was particularly intended for the gen.
eral public. In it President Nudge
says he has shown that within a short
time, if we keep on as we are now,
only a very wealthy government can
afford to operate big railroad.
President Nudge estimated that the
enforced reductions in rates and the
steady increase in taxes and wages
would reduce the Rock Islands net
revenue for 1914, on a basis of the
revenue for 1913, by about $10,000,00O.
The actual reduction, I however,
amounted to over $16,000,000. The
figures on which the report was based
were taken out of the reports required
and accepted by the interstate COM
merce commission.

Springfield rifle was the best weapon
of its type in use anywhere in the
world. 1t was simple, strong, accurate
and it could be loaded and fired rapid
ly. After single-shot rifles went out
the American army adopted maya
zine rifle which later was discarded
for the new model magazine Spring
Held, which is made in the govern
ment factories. 1t is said to be a
weapon of extreme ease of manipula-
tion and of deadly accuracy at long
range. 1t is a superior rifle, experts
say, to that in use anywhere in the
world.

chief of ordnance, General Crozier,

60 MAD UNDER FIRE
Soldiers Driven Insane by Big
German Guns.
Many Wards in British Hospital at
NetIey Filled With Men Whose
Minds Were Shattered in
the Trenches.

Southampton, Eng.-Insanity and
nervous prostration are claiming large
numbers of the allies who have lain
for weeks under German fire in the
trenches about Ypres. The insanity
wards in the big government hospital
at Netley are filled to overfiowing and
all the hospitals in the south of Eng
land have many patients who suffered
absolute nervous collapse and have
been sent back to England for treat
ment.
Most of the cases show decided i'm
provement as soon as the men get into
new surroundings. Many of the pa
tients suffering with nervous aftiic-
tions, who declared when they left
Belgium that they could never endure
further service under the fire of heavy
guns, clamor to return to the field or
action as soon as they get grasp ON
their nerves
An amazing number of invaded sol
diers never have been touched by a
bullet or shell and show no physical
signs Of disability. Some of the most
desperate cases are men who were
terribly shocked by shells which eX-
ploded near them. One sergeant, a
boy of eighteen, who recently left Net
ley for trip to the home of relatives
in Manchester was hurled through the
air for fifty feet by the force of an
exploding shell, not fragment Of
which touched him. Both of his ear
drums were broken and he was uncon-
scious for several days. His brain was
so affected that he was unable to see
anything for weeks in case he became
the least excited
When he left the Netley hospital he
still walked somewhat unsteadiIy and
complained that dark spots frequently
appeared before his eyes. Physicians

as speedily as possible, SO that they

feet, or exposing their arms and hands
to the fire of the enemy that they may
suffer wounds which will relieve them
from service in the trenches. This is
attributed, in many cases, to shattered
nerves, although there are occasional
courts-martial in cases where there
is reason to believe that cowardice in
spired such action. In engagements
where the fighting is at close range
it is simple matter for a soldier to
expose his hand or arm and catch
bullet from the enemy's trenches.
Bad teeth are playing havoc with
the English troops exposed to cold and
dampness in the trenches. Many dem
lists have been sent to the front to
treat defective teeth which have
caused neuralgia and diss Sled men

No More Game Dinners.

Among the several changes made in
the game laws there is one which con
Germs the serving of wild meat. ACcor-
ding to the new law the meat Of any
deer, wild bird or trout other than
Lake Trout, cannot be served at any
club, hotel, restaurant or camp at any
time, while other wild animals may
be served only during the open seas
on.
The object of this law is to prevent
the fraudulent sale Of game. There
has been law in force for several
years, covering this point, but many
hunters got around it by saying that
they gave the meat away. 1t is now
impossible to even give it away with
out being liable.
The law as it now is, reads as fol
lows: mo keeper, manager or stew
ard of any restaurant, club, hotel,
boarding house, logging camp or min
ing camp shall barter, serve or give
or cause to be sold, bartered, given or
served to guests or boarders thereof
the meat of any deer, wild bird, or
trout of any variety other than lake
trout, at any time, or the meat Of any
other wild animal during the closed
season thereof.

Game Preserve Inmates Escape.

On Monday afternoon almost the
entire herd of wild animals in the
game preserve on Trude Lake near
Mercer escaped. One moose, three
elk and eighteen deer walked out
of the preserve when the gate was
unwittingly left open and are now
at liberty in the free and open and
chances are that they will never be
recovered.
1t appears that one of the men in
charge of the preserve was accident
ally cut about the hand, while he
was welding double bladed axe
in pounding stakes, In the excite
ment in taking the man to the
house some distance from the pre-
serve, the gate was left open. The
big moose was the first to discover
the open gate and Immediately hit
the trail for parts unknown. When
last seen the creature was beating"
it across the Northwestern railroad
tracks this side of Mercer. A North
western engineer nearly ran his
train into the moose late Monday
afternoon.
Following the moose, were the
elk, the deer and the antelope The
antelope did not care to remain
away from the preserve and like
the prodigal son" came back.
The game preserve Is owned by
a Stock Company i'll which Charles
A. Comiskey. manager of the Chi
cago White Sox and other Illinois
men of prominence are interested.
Comiskey each year spends a month
or more at this place to rusticate,
The moose which got away was
secured from Canada, while the elk
were obtained from Lincoln Park,
Chicago at great expense.
