their way to the battle line.
The battle line was lined with
trenches in front of which
were barbed wire entangle-
ments. The order that a SOL
der must not turn if a COM
rade be hit was very patiently
exempli6ed, for during the
time that the photographer
was taking the pictures two or
three fell in the trenches with
not even a word of consola-
ton from his neighbor who re-
manned standing with gun in
hand Kying TO pick Of" an
enemy.
Close by were seen the er-
ectyon of Red Cross hospitals
which are so sypical of Ger
man efficiency. From the
western front Mr.. Weigle jour-
neyed to Galicia, where the
Teutonac armies were pursu-
ing a successful campaign
against the Russians. Here
the number of wounded seem
ed to be greater, though the
work of conquest was more
speedy. In several instances
the wounded were placed in
street cars and just as soon as
they arrived at the hospitals
were fed. The number of
nurses seemed to be adequate,
as we'll as the number of sur
geons. From Vienna the cor
respondent visited Tarnow,
where the great artillery and
siege guns were in operation.
The photos we'll illustrate the
Terrible damage which may
be done with these big guns.
One of the larger guns is
shown to have drilled a hole
in the earth deep enough, to
show a we'll as a result. The
Russians were forced out of
Tarnow and in the short space
of twelve days half million
Teutolc soldiers were at
Przemysl, the fortress which a
few weeks previous had been
captured from the Teutons.
The Germans advanced rap
idly, so that the Russians had
hardly time to save their war
munitions. In retreating they
blew up a bridge over the San
river. This did not hinder the
Germans in their pursuit for
i'm a very short time the march
was in progress over a pom
toon bridge. Mr.. Weigle left
the 7eutonic armies at Lem
berg and journeyed to the Ty-
ro)ean Alps where the Austri-
ans were fighting with the ltal-
ians. The preparations that
were being made in the most
picturesque country in the
world required much that was
very tedious. Several ofspthe
As,rge field pieces were being
brought up the mountain sides

Saturday afternoon and even

mildly.
The most striking feature
of the six reels of motion pho

respondent E.dw. F. Weigle,
exempli6ed the great organi-
:zation of the Teutonic armies
in their campaign against the
Russians in the east, and
French and English in the
west. Every unit that goes
to make up the great Ieuton-
ic armies seemed to respond
to the orders given that just
as readily as though the whole
was one vast machine.

WILLARD WANTS To BE CHAMP
JUST FIVE YEARS AND RETIRE
Says He Will Retire Undefeated at End of That Time,
but May Be Mistaken if He Remains Out of Action
Too Long Now While Other Heavies Are Gath
ering Experience; Syndicate Wants $75, OOO
BY RINGsIDE.

, he viii head the heavyweight division
for five years is probably actuated by
events at Havana three weeks ago,
when he relieved Johnson Of his title
And we here divulge an interesting
fact.
johnson Is Al.
Johnson was at least Il years OF age
when he fell before Wizards on
slaught. The former champion made
this admission himself. and said IL in
such a manner as to indicate that he
was probably two or three years older.
JOhnson's white wife said she knew
her husband to be at least SO. And
JOhnson's characteristics make it pos
sible that he would withhold anything
Of an important nature from even his
wife.
The record books showed Johnson to
be 81 years days old when he lost
his championship. Bob Fitzsimmons
also had passed his 37th birthday by
days when he relinquished his laurels
TO Jeffries. So if Johnson really is be-
yOnd the 40-year mark. he beat Fits
longevity record for holding the cham
piOnship by several years
Is willard 83F
Another interesting sidelight is that
Willard is actually SO years old, not
q as claimed for him. Wizard has been
strangely mute on the question OF his
age. Now II Willard is really 80 years
old. we can readily understand why
he doesn't expect to remain in the game
more than five years. Even the great
Fitz wilted at 81; and willard has at
least four years Of hard fighting ahead
of him TO equal the freckled beauty's
record
The Willard syndicate has made it
known that before Jess next partal1es
in a ring battle with his championship
at stake, his palm will have to be
crossed with SIS 0OO as the guaranteed
sum for his services But we believe
that when the stage demand for VIII
lard's Thespian services peters out
those in control Of Big Jess will com
promise for a much decreased amount
Waiting on Mcfarland.
Mike Gibbons is still waiting for
Packey Mcfarland to come out Of his
secIusion and clinch the match the
stOckyards champion preached several
weeks ago.
Michael has posted a forfeit Of $500
for weight and appearance, but Patrick
is vet to be heard from, Gibbons has
agreed TO do 145 pounds at 3 o'clock,
which is at present an extremely low
poundage for the st. Paul Shroud. but
Mike wants to show the public that he
does not fear the wizardry OF McFar-
land.
