MUNICH. August 2S.-Rev. a. Rott-

varian regiments on the western front,
writes to the "Muenchener Neueste
Nachrichten":
During one OF my pastoral visits to
our outposts 1 recently met lone Ba :
varian infantryman. The soldier was
sitting In deep hole and watched the
ground between his position and the
border OF small forest about a mile
and n half away. When he saw me, he
shouted: Pastor. jump into one of the
holes over there. or climb a tree. You
will see then how I catch q French
cavalryman. Our captain needs a
French horse
Il followed his advice and made for
one OF the holes. rs climbing trees is
not one Of my strong points. Through
my spy glass | discovered a fine French
cavalry officer. who cautiously ad-
vanced from the forest along the high
way. My infantryman calmly got his
rifle ready and when the Frenchman
was only five or six hundred yards from
US no caTeiuily aimed ana blaZed away
The French officer sank from the
saddle and his horse tried to run away.

when l started to administer the last
rites to him. my Bavarian came up.
Don't bother. pastor he said He
is not hurt In few minutes he will

He was right. The officer opened his
eyes and looked around In a dazed way.
after we carried him to one Of the holes
that had sheltered us. Within a half
hour he was ms we'll aa ever, and ONLY
n small bump on the side of his head
showed that he had been hit by some
thing. He was. OF course. taken pris-
oner.
When I expressed my astonishment
our sharpshooter explained: That's
very simple. always do 1t that way.
You see. I aim for their heads. which
are protected by heavy steel helmets.
The bullet does not penetrate the
metal; 1t stuns them. That's all I
want. because I get them and their
horses. Why should kill them? The
trick requires only n good eye and

In the course OF the battles in the

WARNS AGAINST BOYCOTT
President of Chinn to Issue Length
Mandate

Mandntc.
PEKlNG, August $50 serious has
the boycott OF Japanese goods become
that tho Japanese government has
made representations to the Chinese
government concerning IT. II was the
practice formerly in China for the
guilds or business societies to organize
boycotts and see that they were main
tanned by NIL the people whom they
could control or influence; but the
central government was seriously
alarmed during the negotiations with
Japan. which began in January and
terminated In May. and official instruc-
lions were sent TO all the governors OF
provinces 10 prevent any such boycott
The people. however. felt so strongly
with regard to the Japanese demands
that they passed the word from one
to another. and such a serious boycott
resulted that the Japanese trade
throughout China, which Is essential to
the heavily-taHed island kingdom. has
been seriously affected.
The Japanese legation in Peking has
again made representations 10 the Wal
ChiaoPu. the Foreign Ofiice, and Prcsi-
dent Yuan Shi-kai has promulgated
another lengthy mandate in which he
states: Although IL must be acknowl-
edged that our citizens are prompted
by patriotism. they should be wise
enough TO recognize what is more vital
and serious. To satisfy ones momen-
tary anger is not an action betting a
wise man. The people should, there
fore. be- peaceful in their vocations and
show no hostility to any one people
neither should they entertain any
suspicion. The Chang Chun (military
commanders) and governors should,
whenever they hear OF any boycott
against foreign goods or movement
anti-foreign in spirit, do their utmost
TO explain matters with view to sup
pressing such deeds. Any attempt to
disturb the peace should be strictly
dealt with. SO that our merchants may
not suffer any moro than they do now,
nor our diplomatic affairs be further
complicated"

son born to any family. provided the
boy was seventh son by one and the
same marriage. Under this ruling
many seventh sons have had to do
without the honor because the mother

nounced that he will become godfather

humber OF marriages the mother has
contracted, provided all seven boys are

Situation in East Never
So Grave as at Present
BY Associated Press

London. May 19.-"Never since the
war began has any one day brought
so grave a bulletin as that received
last night says the Petrograd cor
respondent of the Post.
"On this occasion, for the first time
since hostilities opened, l failed TO
find n indications hat suggest a
promising set-off to what on its face
seems something like a collapse of the
Russian forces. over a front extend
ing some 200 miles the Germans have
caused the Russians to retreat.
After the experiences of the past
few months this seems almost incredi-
BILE and almost compels the belief that
the best part of the truth about the
entire situation remains hidden. The
official onvey the impression
that what the Russians have done is
only to succeed in escaping annihila-
ton by a series of more CO less mas
terly movements to the rear. 1t is
admitted that the German plan OF
compelling the abandonment of an in
vasion of Hungry by a fierce onslaught
from Cracow has been successful"
