Fighting Over the Lorraine Frontier Has Been Terrific Since the War Began But
 Little Is Known to World

Nancy France. January 24-tVia Paris, 11:20 D. m.)--Throughout the war the veil of secrecy has hung thickest over the Lorraine frontier, where fighting unsurpassed for stub bornness or picturesqueness has oc- cured. Command of the heights meant that the valley was a death trap; for ests screen artillery from aerial re- connaissance, and the conditions of the wildness of the civil war ln the United States often are reproduced
 In Nancy the thrifty. tidy capital of French Lorraine, life seems more near ly normal than in Paris. though Ger man aviators need only fly 20 miles to drop bombs in the city. Nancy is as brilliantly lighted as in peace tlme until 10 o'clock in the evening. when all the lights are put out. Officers rosy checked from facing the noun tain gales, come in from the front to dine at a restaurant.
 From the high points in the suburbs the gun firing from some directions is audible any hour of the day, which means that some French battery has discovered some Germans in its range working on a new trench or is touch. ing up German battery.
 The correspondents first of three tours was northward in the direction of Pont Mousson and the Lepretrs for est, which are on the French front Of the German wedge in the French lines between the fortresses of Toul and Verdun. Itos a dull day in Pont-A- Mousson when no shells fall. The peo- pie take to cover with the first, and go on with business when the shower is over. In the Lepretre forest, as in the other forests of the Vosges, the winter life of the troops is similar to that of a healthy winter camp in the Adirondacks.
 Forests Scared
 The forests are scared as by lum- boring operations where fields for fire have been cleared; but usually there have been only scattered cuttings so a5 to leave enough branches to form a screens.
 The French army in the Vosges is having a healthy woodland outing. Rabbits and other game, including wild boars, are to be shot. The drtil- lery is not popular because a shell from it striking the limb of u tree makes splinters with power of pene- tration enough to cause nasty wounds.
 The French soldiers literally are stuffed with food. Many live better than at home. The bracing mountain air gives them keen appetites. An of- ficer told me the men of his company now averaged five pounds mora in weight than when they went to war
 In the forest regions where the lines are close together as trenches are taken and retaken at critical points Red Cross cars are waiting on the sidings to take south the wounded, N.s -is 4
 In the open country when there are no trees to screen the guns ingenious pains are taken to hide them. The cor respondent and his party literally walked into one today.
 The only sign of its existence was a cellar-like opening for descent under the timbered roof, covered with d'rt and such as might be used to keep

O'Brien-Dixon Bout @ Should Be Hummer
B. O. Stags In Past Have Provided Surprises Thrills ''Rube" Heinie On Bill Tomorrow Night-Tickets
 Going Fast-Big Crowd Expected
By RICHARD F. I.USSIER

Manager Bill Streit stated yesterday that everything was in readiness for the best stag event of the season at the B. A. c. tomorrow night. 1t was stated that the ticket sale had been unusually large and that one of the most representative audiences ever gathered in the city was expected to see the "Yanl<" O'Brien and "Sailor" Dixon 10-round setto.
 "Yank" OBrien has never fought Tn this city but comes with the reputa- ton of having knocked out Eddie sIen- lon of Atlanta at Jack sonville last Thanksgiving day. This is considered sufficient to make him a formidable opponent to Sailor Dixon, who had his troubles with Hanlon some weeks ago.
 oBrien has been in the city for sev eral days in active training for the match with Dixon. He is small in build but very fast and is expected to put up whirlwind battle against the bat tier from Bessemer. It is certain that OBrien is carrying about a sleep punch as several of ambitious young- sters who have tried him out in joust with the gloves know with painful regret. O'Brien has severely pumnieled all the habtues of the Athletic club and confidently expects to make Dixon cry out "calf rope" long before the 10 rounds are over tomorrow night
 As for Sailor" Dixon, that aspir-

To Exchange Troops

Rome, January 24.-A Vienna dispatch to the Giornale DItalia, says the journey of Archduke Charles Francis of Austria, lelr apparent to the throne to Berlin and his meeting with Emperor William is con- nected with a vast plan providing for ex- change of forces between Germany and Austria.
