NEW YORK.-Col. Henry O..
Seixas, member of a well-known
Louisiana family and Confederate
veteran, who committed suicide by
shooting himself here in 1911 at the
age of 70, was not penniless as he
believed, but left an estate here and
in Louisiana and Alabama worth
more than 100000. according to ap-
praisal. Col. Seixas, who came to
New York more than twenty-five
years ago, but who never gave up his
residence in New Orleans, believed
that his fortune had been lost largely
through the collapse of the famous
Hooking pool in January, 1910.

The tax report states that Col.
Seixas was enormously alleged to
have been a member of the pool and
that the state has rejected many of
the claims against him by persons
who suffered losses in this movement

BRITISH TANK new
ENGINE OF DEATH
CRoTESQUE MACHINE FLOWS
THROUGH LINES WITH EASE.
DEAD FILL TRENCHES.

BRITISH FRONT IN FRANCE
(via London) The work of the new
armored cars in cooperation with the
British infantry in their charges In
Yesterdays successful attack is the
one theme of the talk throughout the
army to-day.
"The idea was so good when it was
offered" said the staff officer, that
we had some built, and the way they
have gone over the German trenches
and have enfiladed them with ma
chine-gun fire is some return for the
surprise the Germans gave us with
their gas attacks in the first battle OF
Ypres."
Kept 1t Secret
Evidently the British were able to
keep the building of these cars Sc
cret. and the first that the Germans
knew of their existence was when IN
the misty dawn they came thunder
inp across shell craters and over tree
stumps. cutting down many small
trees on their way toward the Ger
man trenches, on to the second line
and even the third line The return
to earth of Ichthyosaurs or Dyno-
saur spouting bullets from their nos
trils could not have been more amaz-
ing. ~
3'Tanks" is the slang word the
army staff has applied to these
strange creations of machinery, but
they look less like tanks than any
thing else. 1t is hard to say what
they look like. They have been
compared with both the Armadillos
and measuring worms and to many
other weird creeping or crawling OBJ
iects of natural history. A man-of-
wars turrets crossing field and out
of gulleys and through fences would
present a spectacle resembling their
progress.

She Knows All Your Secrets if She

The telephone girl sits still in her

who is happy and who has the blues;
she knows all our sorrows, she knows
all our joys, she knows every girl
who is chasing the boys; she knows
of strife, she knows every MAJ who
is mean to his wife; she knows every
time we are out with the boys, she
hears the excuses each fellow en-
ploys; she knows every man who's
inclined to be fast.
If the telephone girl would tell all
she knows, it would turn half our
friends into bitterest foes; she would

New Element in War.

1t is small wonder that anybody
who saw in action one of the new
armored cars should hold up his
hands. They have brought new
element into the grim, motonouss
business of war, trenches, shells and
bombs. 1t was the "tanks" day and
the "tank" made good. :,
According to reports trenches full
of dead were left in its wake when
the occupants of trenches tried to
hold their ground and did not sur
render or fly from its approach. Yet
destructive as the fire of the tanks"
was many German prisoners began
laughing when recalling the first
glimpse of them.
The "tanks" have added an ele-
ment of humor which put the army

while a soft collar can be done just

that they are great improvement in
the matter of free and easy move

Long Diamond Drill Holes.

A horizontal diamond drill hole,
1875 feet long, near Juneau, Alaska,
has attracted attention in the west on
account of it's great length for a flat
hole and the practical difficulties of
handling such long line of rods. AS
pointed out by George Newett of
Ishpeming, 1900 feet for a diamond
drill hole is nothing remarkable in
Michigan, where holes of 5000 feet
depth are common. But it should be
remembered that horizontal dia-
mond drill hole is much more difficult
to drill than a vertical hole, by rea-
son of gravity, freezing and other
troubles
