SHERMAN HAD THE
 'GRANDOLDOPE' ,
"War is Damnable, Stupid, and
 NonSensical," British Captain

New York, July 8.-The "big push which the British and French have at last attempted along the northern portion of the German line has been viewed by at least some of the officers in the British trenches as likely to entail a sacrifice of life that no gen. eral will be prepared to face," ao- cording to captain whose letter from the British front, written just before the big forward movement began, gives some interesting light on the present psychology of the men in the trenches. Ralph L. Shaniwald, a New York manufacturer makes pub lie the letter. without disclosing the identity of the captain who wrote 1t.
 We talked of a big push when I was in London,'' says the officer, "It may be attempted, and I may be in it, but the sacrifice of life will be something that in my humble opin- ion, no general will be prepared to face. Only those who have had some experience of trench warfare can ap- preciate the stupendous difficulties of a great forward movement, with it's attendant wholesale slaughter of the very blood that England requires most Mo- in my opinion, valueless though 1t be, our policy must be one of attrition-of wearing out the en- emy-a policy that I fully recogninze, however, may mean the bankruptcy of the civilized world. Verdun Is doubtless the last great effort of a desperate and wonderfully organized military nation, but its failure in that quarter will not render the task of overthrowing it's well-handed masses of under trench circum stances"
 What He Thinks.
 In other parts of his letter, the Brit | ish captain frankly discloses what he thinks of war:
 Between you and me-" he says war Is the most damnab1e, stupid, non-sensical thing that was ever in vented for settling disputes, and is carried on by bratnless, well-mean- ing men, that you wouldn't give the office boys job to. Incompetence, in- efficiency, and pluck; effrontery, in reference, red tape and ability, are all mixed up together out here, in 8 manner that would drive a business man like you crazy.
 "I have no intention of wearying you with tales of 'hurtling' shells and the deafening roar of cannon, making your blood run cold with stories of the sights that disgust you, and yet fill you with deep sympathy; of shocks and hairbreadth escapes; of tales of valor, and of trem mbling knees; of the brave British officer shaving under shell fire (although I have done that stunt many a morning. without cutting myself) of shots that pierced the tu- nic to be deflected finally by the small Bible presented by the blue and brown eyed maiden of Bloomsbury square; of the bullying officer being saved by the

A Safe Man to Tie To. (HartfOrd Post

One who watches the trend of na uonaI events and observes the manner in which one difficulty after another Is being surmounted in Washington is moved to wonder how long it will he before the great mass of American people see through the sham and shall lowness of political opposition to the president and conclude that Woodrow Wilson is a pretty safe man for the country to tie to in a crisis
 The advice that we should not swap horses in mid-stream is becom- ing more potent as the days go on. Suppose, for instance. we had pro posed to change national administra- tons in the middle of the Mexican crisis. Would the American people have the same confidence in a success full adjustment that we now possess |? Of course they would not
 lf Woodrow Wilson wore repub- ican instead of a democratic label in ms nat the same newspapers and pol 11clanS that are forever bounding him and distracting his attention now. would be hailing him as a second Lin coin or as a Lincoln and Washington rolled into one. The opposition to the president is not based on his kind of statesmanship or his fancied lack of it, on any issue of fidenity to Amer 1can ideals or allegations of infdelity. The opposition Is political-bunk- the party out of power desires to get back. No man in America is better fitted to be president of the United States at this time than Woodrow Wilson.

 Dispatches sent out from Bridgeport telling of the suicide of Erastus Ter wffliger in that city yesterday morn ing give Plainville as the place of his residence, although no one could be found here who knows of anyone in this town by that name. The man Is described as being nearly seventy years of age. He had been living in a rooming house in Bridgeport for two weeks, arriving in the city, according to despatches, after he had separated from his wife in Plainville, following a quarrel.
 Terwilliger is said to have been drinking heavily of late. He ended his life by turning on the gas in his room. His widow is said to be living in Plainville, although old residents do not appear to know her.
 Barber PoIe' Gates.
 Decorated in barber pole fashion. with black stripes on a white back ground, the new gates recently placed at the East Main street crossing pre- sent a rather fancy appearance.
 According to railroad officials the stripes were painted on for practical rather than decorative purposes. They b1e motorists to see the gates at considerable distance and in that way they add to the protection afforded at the crossing.

sistant-Brief Items of Interest.
 Once more the Connecticut com the citizens of the town. This time the kick lies in the fact that despite the real summer weather now pre- valent, the company persists in using closed cars on this line. Last Tuesday crowds of residents had occasion to ride in the trolleys, and the faces of those bent on a day of pleasure inn mediately heightened when they saw their trip must be taken in the closed stuffy cars. It seems that whenever the company has a call for special cars for picnic purposes, the Berlin line is the first to lose the open cars in which 1t is a pleasure to ride on these days, and in their stead the heavy tucks, which oftentimes in win ter are cold as a barn and in sum- mer as warm as the popular concep- ton of the internal regions, are sub stituted. As the 11:2O trolley reached the triangle in New Britain this noon the open car was changed for a closed
  turning to their home were forced to ride in a stuffy atmosphere. It may he good policy from a financial stane- point to furnish cars for picnics, but the consensus of opinion in this town Reems to be that the Connecticut com pany should refrain from making the citizens the goats on every occasion From remarks heard about town this noontime, it is possible the matter will be called to the attention of the public utilities commission.
 That Postmastership
 Everyone on Warrington Ridge and in this district is wondering who will be the next postmaster. Despite the fact that Postmaster Henry l.. Porter's term expires on the twenty third inst, no one seems reasonably certain who his successor will be. It was thought at fisrt that A. B. Good rich, who filled the position in an ac- ceptable manner during Cleve1and's 8 second administration, would again receive the appointment but nothing has been heard from Washington or the postal department It was said there was opposition to MT. Goodrich s appointment, but who objected and why has not been disclosed Later it was rumored that MT. Porter. who is a Civil War veteran, would continue on the job but if has been impossible to obtain the stand of prominent democrats on the question. Mr. Por- ter will have completed twenty-four years of service, when his present term expires and opinion is divided, whether he will continue or not.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
A Hyphenated Person

To the Editor of The Age Herald:
1 am just in receipt of an anonymous
letter from your city. While it carries
no threat, it is filled with the most
vile black guard, vulgarity and profan-
ity, and the letter undertakes to charge
me with being "hyphenated" in the
most ungentlemanly manner. 1t alAo
takes some milder shots at The Age
Herald for having published my art
icles. But if you will grant space, I
will define what a genuine hyphenated
person is. Perhaps a proper concep-
ton of one will relieve such persons
as the one who wrote that anonymous
letter of their misconception of "hy-
phenates"
A real hyphenated person cannot be
a German American, just because he
is of German blood and an American
by allegiance. A person is not respCn-
sible for his ancestry. If this were
true an English American, an French
American, an Irish American, and so
on, would be just as much hyphenated
as would be German American.
America is chiefly made up of German,
English and French blood of the orig
inal revolutionary stock; and it is no
evil reflection upon either to refer to

Origin of John Pu.P

I'm answer to the inquiry as to the
origin of John Bull: Every country has
a nickname and is represented in pictures
by an animal. The British lion is the
animal that stands for England and John
Bull is its owner and master. The lion is
the country; John Bull is the nation. The
name of John Bull comes from a work
written by John Arbuthnet a witty doc
tor and writer, great friend of Swift
and Pope. He was born in 1867 in Scot
land and died in 1875. The sketch he
wrote dealt with the political affairs of
Europe at the time, and the countries
We're made to appear as men and women.
England was John Bull and Queen Anne
was Mrs. Bull. The church was Mr..
Bulls mother Scotland was John Bulls
sister Peg. England the nation and
country, was made to appear like a good
natured man, but not without faults. AS

tional dishes the name of Bull answered
we'll John was shown to be an honest
plain dealing man. courageous and rather
hot tempered He was supposed to be
always ready to meet the French King
with any sort of weapon, in earnest or
in play. He was difficult to deal WITH
especially if anyone tried to master him.
Treated with kindness and a little flat
terry, he could be led like a child.

Escaped from ASYLUM

Mobile. July 26.-V. B. Wheat, who
says he escaped from the insane asylum
at Tuscaloosa, was arrested by the
police. The department received COM
plants about Wheat from all over the
city, one among the others being that
Wheat had threatened to kill his
brother. Wheat declared, according to
the officers. that he had intended to
blow up the operating room of the
asylum because no one sent in there
ever comes out alive" While in his
cell at the station he wrenched loose
an iron pipe and defied the officers.
He was finally subdued and sent 10
the county Jail to be taken from there
to the insane asylum.
