MANY KRUPP WORKMEN
 CLAIM ILLNESS BENEFITS

VIENNA, July IT. - The annual re- port of the great Krupp works at Els sen says that out of every 100 women employed there 77 claimed relief from the sick fund during the year, as com pared with 62 men out of every 100.
 The number of women employed by Krupps has risen more than tenfold.
 In August, 1914, just before the war broke out, the company's payroll in cluded 36,S80 men and only 1,214 wo- men. At the end of April last these figures had risen to 55,949 men and 13.032 women,

CYCLING REVIVAL STRIKES
 ENGLAND

LONDON, July IT. - The war has caused distinct revival of cycling in England More bicycles are to be seen than at any time in the past twenty years. This cheapest of all sports is to a large extent taking the place of motor cars, which are gradu- ally being given up for reasons of eco nomy Women find that the fashion of short, wide skirts and high boots is ideal for cycling.
 No sooner did the governments campaign against the use of motor cars for pleasure begin to bear fruit than all the veteran cyclists arranged a merry rally on a road leading out of London that was popular with them in years gone by. For one day the historic road was almost like it was in the golden days. Wheel behind wheel, the machines came purring down the last hill, and the villagers stood by their gates. as they stood every fine Sunday twenty years ago, to watch and identify by familiar names the men who were once werO kings of the road.

DWELLING BURNED.

VALDEZ, July 12. - Following the removal of the body of Robert Eich- Ter from the building on Broadway, where it was found, on Monday after noon, a mysterious fire caused the de- struction of the dwelling. Although the fire broke out early in the after noon, no one appeared to have seen anyone near it about the time the fire started, and it's origin must ever re- main shrouded in mystery.
 All day Monday there was much talk about town concerning the burn ing of the structure, many advising such a course to prevent possible con tagion, as the body of Eichler was in a badly decomposed condition, and the stench was intolerable.

ARE IN THICK OF
 FIGHT

BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE, July 13. - American citi- zens have seen hotter fighting in the last two weeks than any American since the Appomatox campaign. They have endured as heavy shell fire as the German guns ever directed at the British front, and know what 1t was to charge into the German trenches with bayonet and bomb i'll pouring rain through the mud in the small hours of the morning.
 There are more Americans scattered among the Canadian battalions than most people realize. Some of these were living in Canada when the war began; some crossed the border and enlisted for the sake of being in a scrap" some felt a duty to strike a blow for the allies.
 If a man took the oath and put on a uniform a Canadian recruiting ser geant did not ordinarily bother, if he were a sound man, which side of the border he came from. Besides, the re- cruit sometimes had bad memory on that score himself. What part of Canada are you from?" a British of ficer asked Canadian private.
 Out west sir"
 What part of the west?"
 "The Far west, sir"
 What part, I asked. Haven't you learned yet to give a definite answer to an officers question:"
 Spokane, sir"
 Where is that; in Manitoba?'
 "In that neighborhood, sir"
 After a man has been wounded the truth is more likely to come out. Af- ter an examination of bad jaw frac. ture the surgeon said to one wounded American:
 You have a bad smash, but we shall pull you through and fix you up as good as new"
 Are you giving it to me straight, was the feeble question.
 "Yes, you can depend on it."
 Well, if that's the dope and no kid ding, I wish you'd write to my mother out in Ohio and tell her"
