GUN PLAY
 OA FIRING LINE
Associated Press)

PARIS, Jan. 1S.-A French artillery captain tells the following story of operations in Alsace:
 we had decided to get rid of a machine-gun shelter that had been annoying us a great deal and while we were about to knock the front line of German intrenchments to pieces The lines were so close that the ig colonel ordered all the front trenches evacuated except for my lieutenant, who had volunteered to stay there ana direct the fire.
 My battery opened fire and after a few rounds my lieutenant telephon- ed that we were doing we'll but tFat if we shorten our range twenty yards, 1t would be still better. As the range was over $500 yards, I asked him If he was sure I could shorten it with out danger to him. He answered that it was quite safe. After numDer of rounds he telephones again to shorten the range, this time Ly ten yards. 'Then,' he said, 'yonr shells will be falling right on the front line of German trenches I told him that would do it, but that he would, of course, retire to the second line.
 | gave him time to get away, and then began again. Ten minutes later, to my amazement, the telephone rang again. My lieutenant had stayed at his post although a perfect hail of trench shells were bursting on the German trenches just seven yards away from him. We measured the distance. It says something for our gunners that only one shell had burst ln the French trench"

A. 1. vERDUGO RECEIVES. 4 LETTER FROM FATHER.
(By B. F. Flyl

Those who do not agree with Gen. eral Shermans world-famous expres- sion that ''War is Hell' should call on my friend A. l.. Verdugo, at the Toggery, and get him to read letter he received this morning from his honored and beloved father, written from Choix, Sinaloa, Mexico, on Dec ember 28, 1915. If after hearing the contents of that letter they are still clamoring for war, why not arm all of them, divide them in two parts, and then let them fight it out among themselves?
 MT. Verdugo's father has been in Mexico for several years, he and his San Francisco partner, J. B. Hosford, being engaged in working mine at the place above named, which is To- cated out in the mountains about 100 miles from a railroad He writes in cheerful mood, though he says that four days prior to his letter was the first time he had received a letter or paper from the United States for 15 months. During this time he had been thoroughly convinced that "war is he'll" The horrors witnessed by him perpetrated by both contending fac tions, were too horrible to enumeIare At times he and his partner, as we'll as everybody else in that section, were on the very verge of starvation, being completely shut off from food supplies by both warning factions. At the time he wrote he gave the pre- vailing price of the necessaries of life as follows:
 Coffee, BIO per lb.; Sugar, $8 per lb.; Lard, SIPS per lb.; Corn, $1.25 per h.; Beans, $2 per lb.; Meat, 50 cents per lb.; Cheese, $125 per lb. Oil, $1.50 per at. bottle; flour, $75 per sack, and clothing not obtainable at any price.
 1OWcNSI MI. NoTQuSO WIlL0S Iudl he expects great things of General Carranza, whom everybody in that section looks to to guarantee life, li- berty and property. He says that al ready great changes for the better have taken place in that section, rail road communication having been es- tablished and no acts of violence be l ing committed. He says he expects his mine to be one of the real big ones in the republic.
 It is unnecessary to say that MT Verdugo and his brother were delight. | ed to receive the letter from their father, this being the first they have heard from him in many months. The letter was sent through the regular consular service, going first to New York and forwarded from there to Yuma.

TO HAVE ANOTHER
 BIG ENTERTAINMENT

The Elk's are so we'll pleased with the New Years dance that they are now preparing to give an entertain ment that will fairly eclipse anything they have heretofore undertaken. It will be real old-fashioned Leap Years dance managed entirely by the ladies whose husbands, broiler- or sweethearts belong to the Elks' club. Not man will make his ap- pearance on the ballroom floor unless he has been asked by one of the ladies. Instead of Ray Hawver and two or three other active members arranging the program, and manage ing the affair, all of this will be in the hands of a selected committee of la dies who know how to do such things exactly the right way.
 The general public will be invited to participate in the affair, at one dollar per head, but when they reach the hall it will be up to the good la- dies to ask them to dance. It will be the crowning feature of Yuma's social season, and it goes without saying that it will be most pronounced suc- cess, for after reaching the dance hall each man will be able to find out lU his own satisfaction just how popu- lar he is with the ladies.

RENT MORATORIUM
 FOR ENLISTED MEN
Associated PressJ

LONDON, Jan. 18.-Sir Alfred Mond's bill for a moratorium of rent for men entering the army, which would prevent landlords not only from raising rents on soldiers dependents but from busting them for arrears lh payment, is now under the considera- tion of the war office France pass ed such legislation on the outbreak of war, as matter of course. But England, as a volunteer country, has not until lately considered such a measure necessary. The general opin- ion is that the domestic situation is such that passage of the measure can not be long deferred.

FRENCH WAR LOAN IS
 FAVORED IN JAPAN
Associated Press)

TOXIC, Jan. 1S.-Subscriptions throughout Japan to the French gov ernment's 5 per cent war loan which have now closed, amounted to about three million francs. The subscrib- CTS were chiefly foreigners.
 On account of the favorable ex- change rate between Japan and France subscribers in this country were able to purchase a bond for yen 29S29, which was the equivalent of the issue price of francs S725. The rate of exchange was 2 francs 921a centimes for one yen.

tical point of view. But in respect of the newspapers published in French, there is more partiSanShip on the subject of the European war. L'Opinion in the morn ing and Independent in the evening are the word bearers of the Entente Pow CTS and especially of the French, though both are edited by natives of Saloniki. On the other hand, The Cou- rior of Saloniki and The New Country, both in French, are accepted as almost official pro-German organs. The former is a strong socialist paper closely affiliated with the German socialist party, and the latter is virtually the mouthpiece of the Austrian Consulate at Saloniki.
 One other French news paper worthy of mention the Journal of the French warship Charlemagne, which while not technically pub liShed in Saloniki has it's cir culation there. It is by far the newsiest sheet to be had in Saloniki, for it prints all the official communiqueS of the various countries at war, as we'll as a great deal of in formation gleaned from the wireless service of the French battleship. It is dls- tributed free of charge to all the Allied ships lying in the harbor, to the headquarters and various other offices of the Allied armies on land, and may be subscribed for by private individuals at the rate of fifty cents a month.
 Since the arrival of the British troops, an English newspaper has also been started and is said to be very prosperous. It is called "The Balkan News" and is pub liShed under the auspices of the editors of the French journals, "L'Opinion" and "L'Independent."

SALONIKI IS FLOODED
 WITH NEWSPAPERS

The French and British troopers stationed at Saloni- Ri since the beginning of the Allied Balkan undertaking, never cease to marvel at the number of newspapers able to live in a city of, normally, only about 15O,OOO inhabi- tants, of whom a very large percentage cannot read or write.
 Though the second city of Greece since it's conquest by the Greeks in the last Balkan war, Saloniki has never been and, is not now in any real sense a Greek city. Indeed, a scant 25 per cent of the population is Greek. Yet the city supports five Greek daily newspapers, 3 morning and 2 afternoon journals.
 Besides these, probably the most widely read of all is the unique daily, the For ward, which is printed in Hebrew characters for the benefit of the overwhelming Jewish population of the place but Hebrew charac- terS spelling out Spanish, not Hebrew wordsl
 The newspapers of all Greece play very important if not a dominant part in the politics so much the leading occupation of the Greeks. There is no such thing in Greece as a politically inde- pendent newspaper, in the sense that a newspaper may be politically independent in the United States or France. Every Greek daily is either for or against Venizelos- that being the cardinal poli- tical test. This is true, of course, of those in Saloniki as well.
 "The Light" a morning, and "The New Truth" an evening journal, are the big Greek anti-Venezelos organs though the former in addi- tiop to being bitterly opposed to the late Premier is also pronouncedly pro-German.
 "The Macedonia" and the
 Greece, both big morning journals, are the Venizelos organs in Saloniki, though the Anchor" an evening journal, while more militar- ist than anything else, also supports VeniZelOS.
 The Spanish-Hebrew eve ming paper, the Forward, !" is, as the name implies, so- cialist in politics, and pro- German.
 While a mixture of Span iSh and Italian is the current tongue spoken by the great majority of the inhabitants of Saloniki, French is also spok- en widely, generally under stood and universally read. There are, therefore, four French dailies published in Saloniki-a morning and an evenino naner for each noli-
