Time may and should soften the as
perities of the nations now engaged in
the great struggle across the seas, but
a growing humanity will look with
growing horror upon those features of
the war that have thrust chivalry and
all the finer instincts aside and put on
the pages of modern history records
that would shame the annals of re-
hottest and darkest savagery. A week
or so ago Miss Edith Cavell, an English
nurse, serving in Belgium, whose ten
der ministrations had been given to the
sick and wounded of all the warning
nations alike, was taken out before a
file of German soldiers and shot to
death. She was charged with having
been implicated in some intrigue
against the German government. and
the charge may have been true, but
history will not run far enough to re-
lieve the German government of the
odium that will attach to an act of such
utter inhumanity. The sinking of the
Lusitania and the execution of heroic
women will constitute Germany's
shame, while the nurse who died will
be accorded her place in deathless
bronze beside Joan of Arc, Nelson,
Hale, Emmett, and all the heroic fig
ures who coupled devotion with high
ideals and won place in the world's
Valhalla.

LAMENT ABSENCE OF GENIUS
Frenohmen Wonder That Great War
Has Not Produced Literary Man
Of Great Ability.

That the epoch 1914-15 has not pro
duced q single genius in France 10
made the occasion for comment by the
French journal, LIE Cri de Paris.
In fact" says the Cri, ut appears
that the stars in our literary heav-
ems have been growing pale for some
time. But the time has produced an
astonishing. almost miraculous phe-
nomenon. Certain works already an
cient, Of which the authors are dead,
have suddenly become noted as in
comparable, which before were not
considered 80 beautiful. It Is the war
that all at once has revealed their
splendor, and today they evoke uni
versal enthusiasm. One may count
them upon the fingers, for there are
but four OF them: A poem, a piece Of
music. q sculpture and a painting.
THE poem is the hymn of Victor
Hugo. The Devoted Ones Who Died
for Their Country Few French knew
1t before the war; now everyone
knows it by heart, or pretends to know
1t. The piece Of music is The Mar
ceillaise.' The young people imag-
ined 1t was a ritournelle, mere -four
ish. They have just found that 1t is
masterpiece. The sculpture is the
'Marseillaise' that Rude cut upon one
Of the door jambs of the arch of tri-
umph. The painting is q panel by
Puvis de Chavannes, in the Pantheon.

So in the midst of the storm that
which was great has become very
great; and that which was mediocre
has become small, very small"

break of the present war, announced
that a process of steel and powder
manufacture had been evolved that
decreased erosion; but the factory is
understood to have refused to con-
tract to supply a large number OF
great guns under guarantee of $50
pounds accuracy-fire life.
Cheap Process For Refining.
In placing aboard the Queen Eliza
beth the 15-inch weapon designed for
her class, British navy officials are
understood to have depended upon a
cheap process for refining, perfected
by their engineers. TO offset the short
life of the gun. Ii that be true it is
probable The Queen Elizabeth soon
may be compelled to return to Eng
land and have new guns placed
aboard if the steady pounding at the
DardaneIles forts exhaust her main
battery
1t has been suggested that 16-inch
guns could be substituted for the
14-inch batteries of the American bat
tleships now under construction, plac-
ing them two to a turret instead of
three and giving the ships eight guns
each instead of twelve. Navy officers
say, however that the cost of such
an alteration would be very great if
it could be made at all. They also
hold that the American 14-inch gun
is the equal of the British or German
15-inch for all practical purposes
Has Equal Range.
With any target in plain view, it is
said the American gun has equal
range and nearly equal penetration,
the difference being more than coun-
terbalanced by the larger number Of
guns carried. Thus. in action against
such a ship as the Queen Elizabeth
the Pennsylvania would have twelve
l4-inch guns against eight 15-inch
and would have SO per cent. greater
opportunity for scoring hits. For in
direct fire, such as the work in which
the Queen Elizabeth shared in the
Dardanelles, the 15-inch guns great
er range would be important; but it
is not believed it would be factor in
a purely naval battle.
During the present war. big gun
naval engagements have been fought

miles, effective distance for either ~
or IA inch guns.

U. S. FOOT TROOPS
GIVEN LARGER TENTS
Cavalry Shelters Will Be Supplied to
Infantry-NcW Ones Are
Heavier.

Washington, March 18--By a deci-
sion just rendered by Secretary Gar
rison, all foot troops of the army,
numbering about $4,000. hereafter
will be supplied with the shelter tents
now issued to mounted troops.
The present shelter ten for dis
mounted troops has been condemned
on the grounds that it is too small and
does not afford proper protection
from rain.
The dismounted tent, with five pins.
as carried by each soldier, weights
two pounds, twelve ounces, while the
mounted heller tent, with poles and
five pins, weighs four pounds seven
ounces. These tents variously known
as dog tents" and bungalows each
shelter two soldiers, with the mats
divided between them on the march
The tent for dismounted troops is
much smaller than the cavalry tents
and Is supported by the rifles of the
occupants, thus doing away with the
necessity for poles.

His Tack Bag Bursts;
Forty Autos Punctured

Johnstown, Pa, Oct. ga lum,
herman with paper bag of tacks con-
tanning six pounds of the kind used in
fastening down tar paper, caused
much wailing and profanity among
automobile drivers and owners here
yesterday.
Nat Hanson, the lumberman, who
lives in the mountains near New Flor
ence, did not notice that his bag OF
tacks burst just after he had started
for home, strewing the contents along
the highway, a splendid macadam road
much used by automobile travelling
from this city to nearby towns.
Every automobile that passed over
the road yesterday got from five to
fifty punctures. More than forty cars
were pulled into garages along the
route with fiat tires.
Investigation showed that for a mile
the road was thickly strewn with the
big tacks measuring an inch in length.
With their big. heavy fiat heads, the
punctures had landed point up when
they hit the road.
Angry automobilists hastily got to-
gether and prepared to prosecute the
miscreant who had barbed the road.
Hanson came to town to-day for more
tacks to replace those that were lost
and the story leaked out. He will not
be prosecuted.

Experimental Station to
Be Built at Philadelphia
Special 10 The Telegraph

Washington, D. c.. Oct. 29.-The eX-
perimental station suggested by
Thomas A. Edison, chairman of the
advisory board of the navy, probably
will be built in Philadelphia, if the ad-
vantages of Philadelphia as pointed
out by Mr.. Edison and several en-
gineers in the navy are recognized.
Mr. Edison recommended the selec-
tion of site on deep water on the
Atlantic coast and high officials of
the Navy Department are favoring
the selection of Philadelphia.
1t was stated to-day that Secretary
Daniels had apportioned $1,000,000
to the building of this station in this
years estimate, which will be sutfi-
cient to begin the erection. 1t is to
cost S5, 100000, when completed.
1t developed to-day that Mr.. Dan
iels, after looking over the best places
for the station, had come to the con-
clusion that it should be placed where
there is skilled labor, a good market
and near to the coal and steel fields.
Philadelphia meets all these demands
and is the nearest place to Washing
ton offering deep and fresh water,
which Mr.. Edison said is needed.

of the places where the Canadian re-
cruit finishes his military education.
Troops are mobilizing in every little
town along the border. The close of
/ the harvest season has brought a great
| influx of young farmers, who only
tarried to help the home folks gather
| the crops before enlisting. The troll
| ley cars connecting the different towns
are frequently side-tracked, while
special cars filed with raw recruits
take the right of way. The delayed
civilians greet the soldiers with loud
applause. Women reach out of the
car windows to wave greeting and
good wishes. Every one sings God
Save the King" with a fervor that
convinces you Canada is English to
the core.
Many Are Arrested
The street cars running between
the United States and Canada have
become a stage for dramatic Incl
dents. One never knows when he is
going to be arrested or how long he
may be detained, if he crosses Mag
ara River. The Canadian officers
make a close inspection of every pas
senger, and the customs house officials
of both countries exercise extraordi-
nary vigilance. Excitement is caused
almost daily by the arrest of stran-
gers suspected of being German spies.
The zeal of these officers sometimes
leads them far astray. An American
businessman, who for twenty years
has had thriving business in the
American city of Niagara, crossed
over the Canadian town recently. He
had paid his toll and had walked a
few feet, when a stern voice COM
manded, Halt" Two officers came
forward and placed him under ar
rest, and he was held several hours.
When he told his name and business
he was contradicted and informed that
he was known and would be held.
He was submitted to a most rigid ex-
animation before his captors would
comply with his request that they tel
ephone to his place of business for
someone to come and identify him.
Similar incidents are common. 1t
is said that forty or fifty persons have
been arrested daily throughout the
summer, upon suspicion. Most OF
them are released within a few hours
at the most.
The Canadian women are bending
ell their energies toward preparing
luxuries for the soldiers Every one
is canning fruit. The guild houses of
canning factories. Tag days have
been appointed to secure money to
buy glass jars In some towns, an
extra penny is accepted by the ticket
sellers of the moving picture theaters
for the benefit of the canning funds.
In Toronto last Saturday night over
20, 600 troops assembled for q monster
rally to obtain volunteers. Conscrip-
tioA will never be needed in Canada.
Young men and old are volunteering
more rapidly than equipment can be
provided for them.
Special trains for the transportation
of recruits have been provided by the
Canadian government. Several cars
