1 have to carry a gas mask wherever go; always have it with me"
 A few words concerning the unaVOid- able filth of the trenches recently va cated by the Germans and as hastily occupied by the advancing Canadians is not a pleasant part of the letter
 There are thousands of rats in the trenches" the letter says.
 q can't begin to tell you all," the young American officer writes, q am
 just trying to give you a slight idea
 of what 1 am seeing. To give you an
 impression of the noise Of the shells,
 just imagine 10000 express trains fly
 ing through the air overhead at the
 same time and blowing up. That is as
 near as l can describe the continual
 din. The damage the shells Go is
 frightful You should see this ground
 and no mans land It showed here
 yesterday and is cold as the dickens.
 l am writing this in my dug-Out forty feet below the surface of the ground.
 1 am having a wonderful experience,
 but when this is over, 1 will be readv to settle down and stay in one place. 9
 If that last statement is true, and his relatives hope it is. it required a world
 war to take the wanderlust and excite ment-lOVing spirit out of this soldier of fortune, one that carried him at the head of battalion of other American soldiers of fortune to fight a foreign foe in foreign land. Since he was ten years old Bernard Putnam mas spent little time at his home in Missouri. AL ways of a rowing spirit he came to Arizona and New Mexico at an early age, drifted into old Mexico with d surveying party and finally found his way up into Canada. He grew to like that new country. and when the war broke out he cast his fortunes with England and received 9 commission to organize a battalion of Americans for service across the ocean. They were called the American Legion. Promotion came rapidly to Bernard Pittman and he finally was made a major The American Legion was dashing, fight | loving bunch, and since their arrival on the I.ring line of the British forces in France have been in the thick of it making a name for themselves that a'- ways will occupy place in the history | of this war

TERRIBLE TALE 1T
 MAR CONVEYED BY
 FRENCH FRONT NOTE

"All hell broke loose!" Short, decisive, expressive is the description of night in the British trenches in northern France told in a letter received yester day from an American young man by his sister, Mrs. E. A. Young of Phoe nix The young man, who is command CT of a battalion of Americans now en- gagged in the victorious advance against the best of Hindenburgs army, is Ma jor Bernard c. Putnam He has brother, A. F. Pittman, living at Je rome. The letter. written in the trench es during brief lulls in the artillery dUels, was mailed on March p and re- Quired exactly a month to pass the in spection of the censors, evade the Ger man submarines and reach it's destina- tion al Phoenix
 Many things of interest are omitted in this message from the front firing line-the location of the battalion num- Der of troops engaged, the present for tune of battle those and other facts that are not permitted to be told to the outside WOrld,-but there is enough in the too brief letter to enable one to oraw q faint mental picture of the ter rible carnage, the overwhelming death by flame, gas and hurting metal, talk ing whole villages at a single breath and not the least, the heart and mind wrecking strain that makes it utterly impossible for living srlen to remian in . the front trenches for more than a few days at a time without relief
 Sherman said an earful when he described war" writes Major Pittman who has not outgrown or forgotten his American slang. q have been in the front line trenches for zen days" the letter continues, and have been in the supports for six more. We will be going out for rest soon, and I'll appreciate 1t, you may be sure. There has been lots of fighting since 1 have been here Every day, nearly, there has been something doing on our front 1 wish 1 could describe all this, but it is sim ply impossible. You have no idea how much the few lines that are cabled to tie outside world mean
 The first night that I went into the front line trenches the letter contin- ues, T went on duty at midnight. Ev- erythlng was fairly quiet until 3:30 in the morning except there was white iiare going up every few minutes. suddenly one of our machine guns opened up and kept going for nearly a -iinute-tney fire a thousand rounds q minute. Then all hell seemed to break

Anita Stewart a. the Hin

''The Glory of Yolanda" has three things to recommend it. First, Anita Stewart has the part of an innocent country maid fired by a desire to be- come @ great dancer and her fathers persecution drives her to the city to find her dream shattered. Secondly it is a picture of today with part that gives every emotion known to the screen artist a chance to leap to the surface in the action that circles this slip of a girl fresh from the country who battles the wolves of society in her fight for life and honor. Third, but not last, it was selected by Tally for his Broadway theater in Los Angeles and that is the real stamp of approval for to play Tally is to be marked for distinction wherever fotoplays are served.
 A Pathe News of good value is the added attraction.

At the Majestic

One of the best of the many parts that have been assumed by Carlyle Blackwell is the role that has been assigned to him in the forthcoming World Picture Brady made entitled "The Social Leper." In this production MT. Blackwell assumes the role Of a man who is accused of murder, but who is innocent of the crime. Never theless he is put through nerve racking third degree that leaves him tortured in body and soul and almost brings him to the point of confessing something that he has never done just for the purpose of obtaining peace. MT Blackwelrs many friends and admirers will be delighted with this production when it comes to the Majestic theater today and tomorrow. June Elvidge is seen with MT. Blackwell and Arthur Ashley and Evelyn Greeley are seen in the cast.

loose. Both sides sent up flares and rocket signals, and all the artillery in the world seeemd to be in action.
 Fritz gave us all he had, and he sure has got a good variety, mime werpers, rum jars, fish tails, rifle grenades, overhead shrapnel and high explosive. He threw it all at us, and we sent him a little better than he sent us. The machine guns and the rifles were in it, too, and to be perfectly frank with you. they scared me damn near to death. Have gotten used to it though, and now it doesn't bother me any more. 1 have seen quite a few fights between the aeroplanes and have seen machines from both sides brought down.
 This part of the country in a wreck. Villages are completely flat on the ground. One town near here was choked with gas sent over it by the Germans. It caught the civilian population in their beds Their bones are still there.

strono Bill at Columbia

For Thursday and Friday, Mrs. Yer non Castle. as "Patria" will be seen in most expressing episode. The action is tremendously intense and will startle spectators with it's realism. For those who desire good, clean, snappy show ing, "Pauia,' will fill the bill most satisfactorily.
 In addition to the above, Mabel Ia liaferro in "The Barricade,' will pre- 'sent Q Metro showing giving a strong exposition of Wall street operations. This is blended into an unusual tale of retributiCn that strikes the wrong ob- ject but happily accomplishes the effect of uniting two people long enstranged.
 A Scenic TraveIogUe will also be shown.

larities undoubtedly exist They point out how the different races of men show individualities and then trace down to the families comprising the nation. Change of surroundings will bring great changes in the disposition of people but the fundamental charac- teristics remain unaltered. Thus from a family of thieves, one member re- moved from such associations might develop great acquistive ability but the same impulse would be honestly followed where not transplanted it would find dishonest expression.

"TFe Bean Trust" a show with a world of classy music, was the title of the effort staged last night at the Empress. The large crowd present was highly eiatfd with the offering.

Banana Is City Of Future.

At the mouth Of the great konSo
river, here Us Wide rs an arm OF the
sea, stands the important city with
the picturesque name of Banana. The
Importance Of Banana lies in the fu-
ture rather than the present. 1t is the
port of entry to that immense wilder
ness filled with q thousand undeyelop-
ed possibilities known as the Belgian
KongO. If Belgium comes through the
war with her African empire intact
Banana will probably grow into the
leading Belgian colonial metropolis. At
present it is little more than q name
and a possibility.
Banana consists of an excellent nat
ural harbor and a village of q few
score homesick Europeans. Consider
ing the Importance Of kongo trade
even today it is surprising that local
development has not gone farther.
There is no adequate wharf or pier.
There are no adequate unloading IA
c%ilities. There are only stretches of
sandy beach dotted with noble palms.
great mangrove trees with their multi
tudinous earth gripping branches, a
pier Of rotting and battered piles and
native canoes with their ebony oars
The prospect is beautiful in a
natural way, but there is Il surprising
lack Of industrial development.

The History Of Pearls.

1.-THE modern recognition Of pearls,
dates back to about 800 b. c.. but they
were known to yet older peoples. and
especially to those of the East" says
the author Of a book published under
the title, 1.-THE History Of Pearls"
1.-THE Chinese records go still far
Their back, and oyster pearls were re-
ceived as tribute In the t~wenty-third
century B. G. It Is probable that they
were found in the waters of Cese0n
and India two thousand years ago. AID
the. Greeks OF course knew the pearl
and recognized its value. But it was
not until the Roman empire was be-
ginning to rise that the knowledge of
the value of the pearl became general.
1t seems that in early times Britain
played its part in the production of
these gems, and Tacitus refers to Brit
ish pearls, but calls them dull-colored
and dirty brown. Origen, on the con-
trary, declared that the pearls that
came from Britain held the second
rank In value. It was not, however,
until about the twelfth century that
pearls were used In England, when
they became conspicuous In church or
namentation."

DON'T NEGLECT FRUIT CROP
Numerous Trees In Garden or Yard

sects and Diseases.

Do not neglect the fruit crops which
are already planted. There are not
many farms but have fruit
trees and bushes planted In the garden
or yard. All these plants should be
protected from the ravages Of insect
pests and fungus diseases. This can
be done very easily by the use of ell
bow grease and the spraying pump.
Soon the gooseberry bushes will begin
to lose their leaves on accOunt OF the
gooseberry worm. See that each bush
Is protected with a coating OF arsen-
ate Of lead. Dilute this material at
the rate Of one pound Of arsenate Of
lead to every SO gallons OF water, and
completely cover the bush.
Useful commercial lime sulphur, one
and a half gallons to so gallons of wa
ter, and one pound Of powdered arsen-
ate of lead for apple trees. Spray the
trees just after the petals have
fallen. This Is the right time and the
only satisfactory time, to control the
apple worm. Peaches should be
sprayed with a mixture Of one pound
Of powdered ~arsenate of lead and
three pounds Of hydrated lime, diluted
with so gallons Of water, just after
the shucks fall.

The Last Of the Carjbs.

The Garth Indian was the first rep
reSentatiye of 10 the poor red man to
meet the tide of European travel. He
was the one found by Columbus and
the later Spanish explorers In the West
Indies. and he has given the Caribbean
sea his name. Thus he is assured a
monument rs long as geography shall
last, and he needs it, because as q
living race he has practically disap-
peared.
How many thousands of Cards
dwclt In the West Indies in 1892 is
largely a matter Of conjecture. They
quickly began to die out under the
hand of the c%onqueror. who worked
them as slaves. and shot them when
they made war. Today it is doubtful
whether there are n hundred pure
Q Caribs alive. Practically all
OF them live on the British island of
dominica, on Il reservation set apart
for them called Salybia.
