AMERICAN CARS HARD HIT
English Owners Can't Import Spare
Parts to Repair Old
Ones.

London.-A correspondent who is
thoroughly conversant with the motor
car business sends an interesting COM
munication to the Manchester Guard
ian with reference to the new reg
ulation prohibiting the importation
either of motor cars or spare parts.
The regulation affects in practice
only American cars and repair parts.
Practically no new cars are to be
bought at the present time except
American cars, and as the standard
lied self-starting American cars are
the simplest for an amateur to work
doctor or a commercial traveller who
wants a car naturally prefers in these
times to buy an American machine. 1t
seems remarkable that not even linn
tied import is permitted.
There are thousands of American
cars in use in this country by doctors
and professional men, commercial trav-
elers, military officers and others with
a good reason for having car. APP
parently, under the new regulation. as
soon as these cars need repair they
will have to be laid up. since spare
parts cannot be imported, and it is
quite impossible to get spare parts
manufactured in this country at the
present time.

NO STEADY JOB FOR HIM
Theophilus Had Good Reason for Civ
Ing Up Banjo Playing-Threat-
ened With Awful Disaster.

A southern man tells, of a darky
named Theophilus Baxter, known as
"the champion banjo player of Ala
bama."
Wishing to afford a northern friend
an example of real darky music, a
Mobile woman went to Bakers house,
with view to enlisting his services
at musical function. She found his
wife instead.
Very sorry, missy" said Bakers
spouse, "but Theophilus he amt play
in de banjo any more. He jest puts
in all his time fishin' now"
What led him to give up his play
ing?" asked the disappointed caller.
HAS he got religion?"
mo, missy, he amt got religion,
but he's done got skeered."
Scared? OF what?"
"Of dat minstrel show, honey. De
boss learns dat my ole man kin play,
an he offers him a Study job doin' it.
Yassum, an it skeered Theophilus so
bad dat he quit banjo playin' right
away."-Philadelph Ledger.

MEN OF NOTE DIE ON BATTLEFIELD

Italy went to war the Italians were
transferred to their own army, but
previously they fought brilliantly, and
two grandsons of Garibaldi lost their
lives in France.
1.-THE nucleus of the Second regi-
ment was formed on the evening OF
July 81, 1914, in Partisan cafe. Some
young Italians issued an appeal, and
as result about three thousand Eng
lish, Belgians, Italians and Slavs at
tended the meeting to consider how
they could best aid the country of
their adoption.
''In the early hours of the first day
of August / was passing along the
Boulevard Haussmann and saw thou
sands of foreigners waiting in a line
that extended for the greater part of
a mile.
THE British residents in Paris tried
as a result of the first meeting, held
at the Imperial club, about 500 men
offered themselves for enrolment.
The authorities, however, were unable
to accept the offer of a separate regi-
ment, and the same reply was given
to the corps of American volunteers,
SO it was decided that the British and
American volunteers should be draft
ed into the foreign legion.
35,4o0 in the Legion.
About four hundred of them began
drill at once in the exhibition grounds
of the Magic City. Every new recruit
of the legion had to pass an extremely
severe medical examination, which
was held beneath the shadow Of Ma
poleon's tomb, and about 20 per cent
were rejected. l believe the actual
number accepted was 35,400.
After the first few months all the
British members were transferred to
English regiments, but not before they
had been in several engagements and
suffered losses.
Most of the American members Pc
titioned to join the Flying corps, and
France has so many American flying
men now that squadron OF Ameri-
cans is being formed. Dutchmen,
Swedes, Danes and Americans, who
could legitimately have remained look
ers on, have cheerfully laid down
their lives on the battlefelds Of
France.
1.-The pay of the men Of the legion
gc Yha caua az that Of the other SOL
diers of Frsnce-five sous per day
and an allowance of tobacco and wine
so there is no question Of the mer-
cenary spirit having melted men who
have thrown up good positions to Eight
for France"

Writer Paints SorroWfuI Picture
of Trip From Lemberg
to PrzemysI.
SWEPT THREE Times BY WAR
Only Cities Were Spared, and They
Have Recuperated With Speed
That Would Seem Almost
Impossible.

The Hague.-Lemberg and Przemysl
how long it seems since our thoughts
were concentrated on those two Ga.
lician towns! In reality it is but a
few short months. To ride from Lem,
berg to Przemysl today is to ride
through one huge, vast churchyard.
Wherever you look you see graves.
There they lie in groups in the wilder
ness!
On some are transfixed a small gray
cap or German helmet, already rot
ting. On others the rough wooden
crosses are sinking into the ground,
as though they knew the pillow would
soon be there. Sometimes you see
huge graves, from which many-colored
regimental flags wave vigorously
above the pitiful landscape. 1t is al
most as if someone were laughing in
the grave below. The only break in
this terrible churchyard is formed by
some blackened, tumbled ground, once
a village.
Such is the country over which the
fury of war has ragged three times.
Only cities have been spared, and have
recuperated. with a speed which would
seem almost impossible. Lemberg is
as gay and busy as ever; Przemysl is
once more the peaceful provincial
town of peace days. The streets are
clean, the hotels are adequate and the
shop windows are full.
Then and Now.
/ stood gazing into the well-flled
windows of a confectioner. And the
thought came to me, What were these
windows like year ago?" A year
ago horse-fillet was the best that
riches could buy, and only very occa-
sionally a countryman crept into the
town to sell chicken, for which $40
was gladly given. Winter clothes
were not to be had then, and rich men
did not hesitate to walk the streets
wrapped in some woman's cast-off
mantle.
In this war forts have fallen like
rinepins. To Przemysl, alone has
fallen the honor Of a long siege. To
the garrison fell hardships which the
siege Of Paris did not know. In the
dead of winter there was not a window
in the town, and no glass could be had.
The bombs of Russian aviators had
broken them all. Horses were fed on

The Front Row.

The British army has raised its
age limit to forty-five years." said H.
E. Gresham, the British consul at
Cleveland, "The age limit originally
was thirty-eight.
'The army isn't so exclusive, either,
as to age or as to physique as it was
at first.
"A Stacker in Manchester tried to
get exempted the other day.
I've got such poor eyesight,. he
said. L can't see any distance at ALL
"'Oh, thatll be all right said the
surgeon. You'll have an excellent
view. Well give you trench in the
very front line"
