VILLAGE CHURCHES
 SUFFER DAMAGE
CHURCH STEEPLES HAVE FUR WISHED MOST ADMIRABLE OB-
 STARVATION POINTS.
churchyard Tombstones Have Been Upset or Marked by Flying Splr- ters Of Shells.

Berlin, Feb. 26-The extent to which village c1urcaes have suffered damage is observed by an Associated Press correspondent wao recently visited many sections of the war area
 He found many regions where an uudamased building within teu-mla radius of recent battle lines was a rarity and an undamaged chruca a. most unknown With their high steeples the churches have furnished most commanding observation points and sooner or later some well aimed shells have struck them. strangc n.c- lures are occasionally presented ry these ruins At Bounue. a hamlet perchcd on the heights northeast of Namur shells have pierced the walls of the church tower from each side. The tower stands on four precarious corner legs of brick, and a gaping hole reveals the framework of the chimes whose tones are now hushed. The Begiaus had a lookout with a field telephone in the lower.
 The churchyard tombstones had been upset or marked by flying splu. ters or shells. and one coffin had been barred by a plunging projectue A hooded arrangement of iron. faced with glass, containing a wreath of immortelles, had been demolished. Here reposes the little body of our NJ says the inscription of the mar pie slab. The name, except for the initial letter has been deraced by a fragment of a shell.
 The fierceuess of the conflict at Bouuiue can be judged from the ap- pearance of a field near the church. It contans about an acre of land. A hed2e surrounds it. In all this acre there is no spot ten feet square where a shell has not fallen Evidences of equally tremendous shell fire are seen inside the fortress at Givet There, in a plot between two of the forts, some 14O by 250 feet 33 shells had pitted the earth. and 1G had struck upon the walls surrounding the plot.

EXTRA SESSION IS
 NOT PROBABLE NOW
DEMOCRATIC SENATOR'S ADVISE PRESIDENT NOT TO TAKE
 STEP AT PRESENT TIME.

Washington, Feb. 26.-Administra- ton senators tonight were inclined to doubt that President Wilson would call an extra session of the sena. after March 1 to consider the Colom- bian indemnity and Nicaragua canal right treaties or for any other pir- pose. The president and his cabinet discussed the advisability of such ac. ton during the day but so far as is known, no final decision was reached
 Members of the cabinet later de clined to talk Witnin the last day or two, it is known. some of the democratic senators have advised the president not to call the extra ses- sion. Republicans opposed to ratiu- cation of the Colombian and Nicara- guan treaties have declared they would fight against them all summer if necessary.
 It has been suggested that the fed eral trade commission nominations might be considered at an extra ses- sion, but the prospect of confirming all the nominees befora adjournment appeared brighter than ever before.

 OPENS APRIL 10

Buffalo, \. Y. Feb. 26.-The selec- ton of April 10 as the opening date of the Federal leagues playing sea- son, two days in advance of the first games in the other major baseball leagues, and the recommendation by the umpires of some minor changes in the playing rules, marked the opening sessions of the leagues an nual schedule meeting here today.
 Although the injunction proceed ings instituted at Chicago regarding the transfer of the Kansas City fran chise to Newark prevented the for maj adoption of schedule, the magnates went ahead with their work with the expectation that New ark would be in this years lineup.
 The tentative schedule provides for Newark to open at Baltimore, Buffalo at Brooklyn and Indianapolis and Chicago at home with St Louis and Pittsburs as the contending teams.

"In my opinion, l5c-2> hey met his
stunts in the air, because others
have gone farther than Beachey did
on that fatal day, but because of
faulty construction in his machine.
Beachey was not a man to watch de-
tails.
Again, I think that Beachey's ma
chine was too light for the terrific
strain he must have known would
be placed upon it. The little mono
plane weighed only $50 pounds. The
strain placed upon this machine in
a perpendicular drop must have
been twice what the wings of the
plane could stand.
"Of course, there is a great deal
of daring connected with the art Of
flying. But daring is found in every
walk Of life, and nine out of ten of
the feats that the onlooker thinks
hair-raising are mere play for the
capable aviator.
eft is in the knowing-nOt the dar-
ing-that the aviator is successful,
and I hope before long to convince
every man, woman and child that
my contention is correct. Among
the birdmen who have given their
lives to aviation is Cal Rogers, the
