G. Faure Tells of Day and Night
Routine as Sergeant in
Alpine Regiment

From a wounded French sergeant in
the famous Alpine regiment known

letter has come recently to a woman
Of Honolulu describing the stirring
scenes OF activity that he knew be.

Let me tell you what / liked most
in Alsace. That was TO set out with
two other men who would volunteer
with me from my group OF AZ, fill our
knapsacks with hand grenades, and
leaving our equipment in the trenches
crawl at night toward the enemy.
Sometimes this would require hours Of
slow work.
When at last we reached the spot
we had set out for, we would huTl
our grenades at the nearby trenches
of the enemy" continues the writer,
giving them bad surprise.

receive the fire from our own howit-
zers aimed ready for them. Now they
try TO keep track of us by hooking
little bells to strings or wires
stretched in the grass. As soon as
these bells begin to tinkle they shoot
hundreds OF rounds out towards the
wires.
"0ne time." says the sergeant,

own men and in wounding me on the

have a great deal of fun even in their
trenches. The few wounds we get
don't bother us much any more.

made by the Alpine soldiers! We all
jump from the trench with our bay

INSPECT SEWERAGE
MEMBERS OF STATE BOARD
WILL MAKE REPORT-FIND
OUTLET A MENACE.

A report on the condition of the
city sewage disposal plant will be
made simultaneously TO the state
board of health and the city com
mission by DR.. w. e. Daniels. mem
Der of the state board, who, with Dr..
p. B. Jenkins, superintendent Of the
board, this week made an official in
spection of the plant, filtering beds
and outlet.
While DR.. Daniels today declined
to give out a statement in regard to
the matter, in his official capacity as
member of the state board of health,
it is surmised that the board will
take radical steps to cause changes to
be made at the disposal plant, filter
beds and outlet.
Asked If the system would be con
demned, DR.. Daniels said he did not
care to state at this time. Ii was
inferred, however, that the board
members found that the sewage
passes from the disposal plant over
the filter beds. instead of through
them, and flows, %untreated, down a
ditch on the south right of way of
the Milwaukee railway track, menac-
ing the health OF persons living in the
vicinity. and people driving along a
well travelled road in the east end of
the city.
II is understood that the board
members found the outlet wholly in
efficient in that it performs none Of
the functions for which it is intended
1t Is thought to be the opinion Of
Drs. Daniels and Jenkins that if a
man who would devote a day or two
a week TO the work. had been assign
ed to caring for the filter beds, bet
ter results would have been obtained.
Ii is told that the tiles in the bed are
loose and otherwise i'm a condition to
render them useless. 1t is said that
owing to the large volume Of muck
there at present, it would be impos-
sible TO make improvements and re-
pairs so long as the sewage is per
mitted to run onto the beds.
The opinion is expressed that as
a part Of the so called nuisance is on
the Milwaukee right of way. the rail
way company would probably be
made co-defendant I'm any action that
might follow possible condemnation
proceedings.

the result Of complaints made by per
sons living in the neighborhood Of

BALANCED.

Unable TO hold their opponents at
almost every stage of the game. the
Flandreau Indians were handily de
feated this afternoon at Athletic
park. In size the teams were pretty
evenly matched, and in the prelim-
mary practice. the visitors showed as
well as did the Normal school men.
1t was in the line attacks that the
redskins showed weakest. The ball
was almost continually in the terri
tory of the boys from the government
school.
The score was Al TO o in favor of
Madison.
The Madison players scored their
first touchdown within five minutes
after the kickoff.
The State Normal team, while not
put to its best efforts. showed well.
The attendance was smaller than the
play of the locals warranted.
Only a couple of automobile loads
of F%landreau rooters accompanied
their team. The fact that the Elan
