ENGLISH OFFICERS
SUFFER NERVOUS
BREAKDOWN
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Feb. 6.-The number Of
English soldiers and officers who have
suffered nervous breakdown more
or less approaching insanity as re-
suit of the strain of war; has shown
such increase that some of the leading
medical journals are pleading for
special consideration and treatment OF
this class.
Some cases" says the Lancet, ARE
certainly hopeless, but there are 9TH
ers-and happily these are in prepon-
derating numbers, where there are
good grounds for believing that they
may again become useful citizens"
The effects of warfare on the nerv-
GUS system are more marked in the
case Of officers than in the case of en-
listed men, the latter in many cases of
trench insanity" recovering tone
after continuous sleep Of from twen-
ty-four to ty-eight hours. officers
similarly afflicted are generally sent
to special hospitals for a rest of a
week or ten days, but if they fail to
show satisfactory progress after that
time they are invalied home on the
ground that it is impossible that they
could be again employed on active
service.
"The powerful effect which modern
warfare has on the mind is shown
writes a surgeon attached to Brit
ish ambulance, "by the dreams and
nightmares which disturb soldiers
sleep in dangerous positions. Nerv.
Gus subjects react in a most striking
way to the shock of explosions in their
immediate vicinity. Some develop a
tendency to sleep-walking and are
found wandering about the premises
with faces expressing the utmost ter
ror and anxiety. In the soldiers
dreams, the dread of losing contact
with his fellows seems to be felt with
extreme frequency, and the horror Of
isolation constitutes the commonest
nightmare Of men in the fighting line.
They dream that they are wander
ing through endless trenches as COM
plicated as an artificial maze, or are
picking their way through lonesome
forests. The slightest noise during
sleep calls up visions of exploding
shells or the tramp of armed men
throwing them into frenzy of shout
ing terror, to the indignation of their
resting fellows.
Another common night terror is
the dream of sudden call to arms
and the inability to find some indis-
pensable article of attire or arma-
ment, a conception productive of in
tense mental agony. Live-shells nat
urally occupy large share of the
soldiers attention in dreams, and an
exasperating nightmare is the sup
posed discovery in ones bed of shell
ready and willing to burst, associated
with the usual nightmare incapacity
to execute the necessary movements
to get rid of it. Several men have
had dreams centering around the ina
bility to withdraw the bayonet from
an enemy's body when urgently re-
CURED for self-defense.
yet these nightmare-ridden men
are as brave as the rest in face of &C
tual danger

LONDON, Feb. 6.-The Lokalan-

Qualities of the Allied armies. Accord

the Walloons to be of slight military
value but says that the Flemish regi-

Leland Dempsey; the sophomore, Edo

With these captains and the mate
rial that is turning out for basketball
the indications are that the tourna-
ment. which will be held shortly after
the Christmas holidays, will be a rec
ord-breaker in point of skill and of
the evenness with which the rival
teams seem to be matched. Ackley is
a veteran at the game and has played
in the intercIass tournaments since he
entered the school. Dempsey is an ex-
ceptionally good player, differing with
AckIey in that the former is more Of a
skilled player, holding down q for
ward position on the team, while the
latter is fighting guard, his chief
virtue lying in his everlasting perse-
verance. Ed Tabor is also one Of the
skilled players Of the school, and

The Bijou pool room in the 1900

burglar. who got $3.50 in silver and
pennies and probably made away with
some stock. Twenty dollars in paper
money in the cash register was over

Entrance WAS gained through the
basement By forcing in q door in the
alley. The burglar lighted some paper

proper. After getting to the steps he

end and forced one Of the planks of the
| trap door from its fastenings,
| With the hoard off he showed the
crowhar and his arm through the OPEN

trap door Accomplishing this it must
have required considerable labor from

| both OF which showed many marks
where the point Of the bar struck.
| After entering the pool room he
rified the cash register and other
drawers back of the counter which
contained pennies. He attempted to
