First Bombing Balloons Futile.

The first bomb dropping balloons
were humble enough and equally fu-
tile. Balloons had been used In war
as early as the siege of Maubeuge by
the Austrians for observation pur-
poses. The first talk of bomb drop
ping was in 1912, when the Russians
were said to have had huge balloon
for that purpose; but nothing was
done with 1t. In 1S47, however, the
Austrians, when attacking Venice,
sent up paper fire balloons, which were
to drop bombs into the town. But they
forgot to allow for contrary air cur
rents. The balloons got into such a
current and, drifting back over the
Austrian line, bombed them. instead
of Venice.

 T happened to be at the Pine Ridge Indian reservation in South Dakota during the winter of 1S90- 1891, when Pershing was a second lieutenant. He participated in the battle of Wounded Knee and re- mained on the reservation for months after the surrender of the Indians, commanding the company of Sioux scouts.

As he watched what seemed to him unnatural work for womanhood he observed one middle-aged woman, tall and white -haired. wnose busy fin gers were fitting finished cartridges into clips with wonderful celerity. In response to some remark she looked up with a bright smile, though with eyes somber and weary.

 mother carrying a babe. When the 1 train arrived she had to be told the
 mournful news that her husband had
 died on the journey. After a mo-

 self. and, holding her bady aloft
 cried: "Vive la France!"
 Could any spirit be nobler? And the ! same quiet courage is being showr

PUTTING DYNAMITE
 ON A CLOTHES LINE
(NeM York Sun.D

Putting dynamite out on a clothes line over No Mans Land does not mean that the explosive is camouflaged. It is merely one way the Canadians have of disposing of German trench mortars and machine guns.
 To carry out the operation the Ca nadian engineers and bombers wait for a boggy evening when the flare of star shells is less dangerous than on clear nights Perhaps five men go over.
 One man carries a wooden post some six feet in length. Two more have in sulated shears to cut the barbed wire and make a path ahead. The other men carry a wooden pulley and a coil or rope, one end of which is kept in the trench.
 The men go forward on all fours across the rough ground. They are all very careful. When within twenty five feet of the German cement emplace- ment they set the pole in the ground

P. C. A. On the same bill will be seen the American War Weekly which has proven such a popular source of information as to the doings of our country in the great war.

This has been heraldeo as the greatest war story yet pro- duced, and while it deals directly witt the selective draft and the now his torical number 20S, the war drama does not project a single battle scene But the interest is maintained throughout the entire filming, and il is said that the talented Mabel Talia- ferro, who appears in the principa role. scores one of the greatest tri umphs of her screen career in thi: film.
