CRIPPLE CITY
IS new NAME
FOR vienna

VIENNA, March ITO get an idea
present world war one has to visit
the Cripple City" of Vienna. Far out
In the tenth district, away from the
noise and hustle of the heart of the
Austrian capital, a small town OF
manned soldiers has sprung into ex-
istence. Every one Of the $500 inhab-
itants, with the exception of the sur
geons, attendants and instructors, has
lost one or more limbs on the battle
field
The Cripple City" was originally
a school for war invalids founded by
DR.. Spitzy late In 1914. The institu-
ton soon became too small. as cripples
arrived from all sides. When the
founder found himself unable to re-
ceive more unfortunates he appealed
to the Austro-Hungarian war depart
ment for aid and military hospital
with forty-two other large buildings
was turned over to him. During the
last six months a number of work
shops. and dormitories have been
erected and the colony now consists
of about eighty buildings.
Many of the inhabitants of this
strange. sad town have lost both legs
and are helpless when they arrive;
but within comparatively short time,
In three to four months, they not only
walk about with artificial limbs, but
also do useful work which makes them
self supporting. After the legless in
dividuals have been examined by DR..
Spitzy and his assistants their train
ing begins. Short stills are fastened
to the stumps of their amputated
limbs, and, hanging on ropes guided
by trolleys they begin to hobble about.
In a week or two most of them are
able to walk without the supporting
ropes. Then they receive higher
stills and these are heightened from
week to week until they reach normal
height.
After more practice, artificial legs
with joints take the place of the
wooden stills and the cripples are
soon able to throw away crutches..
They not only walk with ease, but also
run, jump. dance and are now ready
for instruction In some trade.

down the steps and laid her hand on
the princes arm. I'VE are free at
last" she sighed, happily. I'VE will
now go and free the other prisoners
So down into the deepest, darkest OF
dungeons they went, unlocking the
doors and calling to the pale, sick
people within to come out free. And
out they tottered. Men half starved
and thin as skeletons. So the prince
ordered the servants, who hated the
ogre, to bring food and wine into the
banquet hall, so that all could feast
and get back their strength. Then he
went to the stables, had the coaches
and horses all brought out and divided
among the prisoners and servants.
Here is the ogre's wealth." he said,
as he unlocked a great treasure vault
full of gold and gems. 1--WE will di-
vide this up between us all, and then
each shall leave this place forever in
his own coach"
At dawn a long line of beautiful
carriages drew away from the old
castle First came the servants, who
had bags of gold, loading down their
wagons; then the lords in their own
carriages; also full of treasure. And
last of all the happy prince and
princess.

NORTH END CLANS
ASSEMBLE AT 4:30

Into the several foreign settlements
and the negro neighborhoods OF the
populous north half of the fifth ward
the mystic numerals "4:30" went from
mouth to mouth in several tongues
shortly afternoon today.
To the initiated this means that the
clans were expected to assemble at
4:30 o'clock this afternoon for the pur-
pose of making foray on the twenty
fifth precinct polling place, North
Fourteenth and F streets.
Only ninety residents of the pre-
cinct had voted up to noon today al
though there are about $50 voters in
the precinct. The announcement was
made this afternoon that Henry
Schel1, north-end saloon keeper and
boss" of the twenty-fifth precinct,
had announced his slate to be, Harlan
for prosecutor, Mashmeyer for sheriff
and Brooks for treasurer. All are Re-
publicans.
Probably the full voting strength of
the twenty-fifth precinct will be
polled.

Step by step the prince climbed up,
though it seemed every moment as
if he would fall on the rocky pave
ment below. At last he clambered
into the narrow, round room of the
top of the tower, and saw the princess
standing in the center of the floor.
"If you wish to destroy the OGRE
she painted quickly, you must take
my advice. He is very strong, and it
is almost impossible to kill him, but
there is one way 1t may be done"
Tell me-" said the prince, land /

Nothing shall keep me from rescuing
you from this wretch"
81 am not his only prisoner" con-
tinued the princess. 1.-THE great, black
dungeon below this castle is full of
lords whose wealth he has stolen. He
has rooms full of gold and stables
with hundreds of fine steeds. If you
wish to kill him you must follow this
plan: When he comes tonight to ask
me if l will marry him, slip out Of the
door just behind his back as he comes
to the center of the room. Out in the
hall is an immense iron bar. Put that
across the top step and he will not
see 1t in the darkness. When he goes
away he will trip and fall to the bot
tom of the stairs. You can then run
down and with these golden scissors
cut from the top of his head the long
black lock of hair which grows there
If you cut this off he will never
breathe again.
The prince took the golden scissors
and slipped behind the door, for al
ready he heard the tramp, tramp,
tramp of the wicked ogre coming UP
the long, dark steps. When the door
was opened and the ogre strobe into
the room, the prince slipped out into
the hall There he saw huge iron

CAPTAIN STAYED
WITH PROVENCE
SAYS SURVIVOR

PARIS. March 7-Standing on
the bridge. Captain Vesco, commands
err Of the French auxiliary cruiser La
Provence, went down with his ship
when the former transatlantic liner
was sunk by submarine in the Med
iterranean on February 26.
AS the ship sank by the stern Cap
tain Vesco cried to the French sol.
diers and sailors massed on the deck:
Goodbye, my children"
Though they knew they were doom
cd to death, the hundreds of French
fighting men replied enthusiastically:
"Vive la France!"
The farewell cheer for their coun-
try was echoed by those who had
plunged into the sea and were swim
ming about and by those huddled in
small boats or on life RATS.
Graphic story Told.
A graphic story of the destruction
of La Provence is told in a further
report to thee ministry of marine by
Maurice Bokanowski, a member of the
chamber of deputies, who was proceed
ing to Saloniki in the ship when it
was torpedoed.
In order to lessen the grief OF
France ] want to tell you OF the fine
behavior of those, who between sea
and sky. prepared themselves to die
for their country in this terrible mo-
rlent," M. Bokanowski writes.
He says that the ship sank too
rapidly to permit the rescue Of a
great part of those on board. The
water penetrated the boiler rooms at
$40 p. M, and at 3:15 p. M, La
Provence disappeared beneath the
water.
NJ Bokanowski had thrown himself
into the water and was taken aboard
a raft from which he watched La
Provence sink. Several Of his COM
panions died OF exposure on the raft,
but there was no complaint.

ing and Juggling with all his might he
at last managed to place it just over
the top step, and as he did SO the
door opened and the ogre came out.
The hall was dark. Only one slen-
der ray of moonlight shone through
the tiny window. The ogre started
angrily down the stairs, but his knee
struck the bar and he fell heavily,
striking his head on the stone edge,
then tumbling helpless to the bottom,
where he lay still.
Without stopping to find out
whether or not the ogre was uncon-
scious, the prince ran quickly down,
stepped over him and with snip of
the golden scissors cut off the lock
of black hair at the top of his head.
At once the wicked creature ceased to
breathe and lay still as a rock.

500 PERSONS
STILL MISSING
FROM STEAMER

RIO DE JANEIRO, March Z More
than 500 passengers and sailors of the
Spanish steamer Principe De Asturias

lieved to have persisted when the yes
sci was wrecked off San Sabastao
Point on Sunday.
Government tugs sent from Santos

bastao Island and the coast is being
patrolled, but no survivors have been
found in addition to the 143 landed at
Santos by the Swedish steamer VEGA.
A dispatch from Santos states that
among those rescued by the VEGA was
Charles Tredek, the American consul
that the captain of the Principe De
Asturias shot himself on the bridge
when he realized that his ship was
doomed
Fog Blamed for Wreck.
The wreck is believed to have been
caused by heavy fog that had pre-
vailed over the coast at Santos for
several days. Despite warning that
the passage was dangerous, the
steamers captain attempted to make
1t. The ship was caught In a strong
current and thrust upon a sharp rock.
The liner sank in five minutes, &C
cording to survivors landed at Santos.
There was time for the launching of a
few boats and two Of these were cap
sized by overcrowding.
The Spanish ship was of S,170 tons
and was built in 1914. Most of the
victims were residents of South Amer
lea, having boarded the Principe De
Asturias at Barcelona, Spain.
