PLAYING WITH THE PUBLIC

ITY HALL is carefully playing mouse with the
 public on the trolley fare question. Mayor Wilson's lips frame excellent talk but action is e slow and very impossible
 There for instance is the matter calling upon the Uli es commission to grant stay thing impossible of attain ment, because the law makes no provision for it.
 The law distinctly provides how rate regulation be managed in cases like the six cent fare The City Bridgeport ten citizens both must file petition with the Public Utilities Commission who then and not until then may take jurisdiction over the rate.
 And after the petition filed there must be the statutory notice. pretty about the city going to the Public Utilities commission the commissioners they will please grant stay but really procedure utterly useless and futile.
 It is of the utmost importance if there be early and genuine opposition that the city file its petition pension of the rate be sought during the hearing courts asked to grant it.
 Most likely the courts will decline suspend but
 might provide system of rebate slips passengers would be entitled to the of their funds in the appeal should be sustained
 This is in effort to predict Connecticut courts would do. merely reflects what frequently been done in rate in other states not too distant from lieut. five cent fare well and good But long six fare is question of the legality the action must begin before the Public Utilities commission with pe ton And the petition ought to be lodged immediately Even though out the extra fare they back at the end of successful acon the proper legal taken immediately It is plain that redress will be lost fares concerned which will be paid from the time the cent rate goes into effect until the tribunals make prov sion for the protection of the public either by system of of the other
 sincerely hopes that Bridgepors manufactur will stick the attitude which Walter B. Lashar has ar bued to them This element in Brdgeport population in it's character has hitherto been distinguished for the number helpful suggestions rather than for the zeal with which those suggestions transmitted into ton the protection of the city, if they really wish to do it.

 APT PUPILS FOR BRITISH OFFICERS TRAINING THEM IN TRENCH WARFARE

thing. We let 'em laugh and joke, but they just keep their minds on the game or we tell 'em a thing
 So they played a. game designed to teach concentration of thought on the exact words of command. The ser- geant began: When I begin a com- mand with the words 'O'Grady says you obey. When I don't, you stand stiff. Now, ready. 'OGrady says eyes right. OGrady says left turn, Front.
 There you are, four of you gone to sleep. Get back and touch the post in that wire fencing behind you and then keep your ears skinned for OGrady."
 It was merry game, but behind all it's fun and laughter one could see it's serious purpose and the fine young fellows who played it knew it better than we.
 Afterwards we watched what was an extremely interesting bit of train ing. A section of a communicating trench had been prepared with side pockets, so to speak, at intervals of five yards or so. In each of these was supposed to be one or more Germans, represented by sack. The object was to teach these young officers, so that they might afterwards teach their men the best manner in which to take the occupants of such a trench by surprise with bayonet in hand and to clean if m ss The last supreme impression which the visit made upon me was that of the immense seriousness and modesty of officers and men in the face of their task. We heard in France, as you doubtless have heard in England, that the Americans had come over boasting they had come to finish job too big for us. I've still to come across such an American. am con- vinced that the tales are a myth. These men had left their homes, their business and their amusement and came 5000 miles for what? Some silly school boy idea of bravado and bounce? They are not fools. and tho Boches will know it when they get to work. When all the weary fighting is over and done with, it will be that the two great Anglo-Saxon races will become swerd and blood brothers for all time.

YALE IS SHORT
 1900 STUDENTS
 ON FIRST DAY
Over 40 Members of Faculty Away On War
 Work

New Haven, Sept 27.-Yale opened its 21Sth academic year today with a registration of regular resident stu dents, cut by war conditions from $500 to 1000 or slightly more than one third
 All departments except the medical school, where the enrolment is about the same as last year, show large losses, especially the College which drops from 1892 students to about 800. The entering classes in the col iege and the Sheffield scientific school number about 300 each, being from 75 to 80 per cent of the normal registra ton. The sophomore class in the co., lege will have about 250 men, the ju- nior class 175 and the senior class about 100. The scientific school suffers somewhat less. partly because of the efforts made throughout the country to have engineering students com plete their professional training.
 The teaching force is also largely diminished. leaves of absence having been granted to over 40 members of Ithe faculty for war work.

American Training Camp in France, Sept. 27.--The Paris correspondent of Reuters has written the following ac- count Of his recent visit to the train ing camp of the American expedition ary forces:
 asked an English drill sergeant who had just given a bunch of 16 American subalterns a breathing spell after some fairly strenuous exercises what he thought of his chargeG
 What do think of these ere young gentlemen. sir, why. sir, we've jad'ad em in six days and look at 'em. They're training on beautiful
 'The best thing about 'em, sir," he went on with professional pride, "is that they are as keen as mustard We can't give lem too muc. They eat it up. You could see for yourself, sir, low we made 'em 'ustle. Just lettin' 'em see, sir, 'ow we do it in our little ar1ny.''
 Those points you see in the sun on the opposite slope" he said, fare tin cans on sticks. You will know their use in a minute or two. Ready, gen. tlemen,'' said the drill sergeant. ''pre- pare for trench bayonet practice by half sections. You're to take these three lines of trenches, lay out every Roche in the lot and then get to cov- CT and fire six rounds at them ere tin hats. Don't waste. shot. gentle men, every bullet Bocte. Now then, ready, over the top and give 'em 'ell right in the stomach. Fritz likes his yictuals, but not that sort. Get at 'em.'
 Over the top they went with what must have been some wild college yell. They ran some ten yards and dug their bayonets savagely into dummy Germans, made of sacks, who sung in the wind to meet them, and disap- peared in the firts trench. We could see the rifle butts lift and fall as they lunged desperately at the supposed foe. Then up they came and on again until we could see them spread-eagled behind a shallow trench. blazing away at the cans which rattled down. Then as they marched back the second sec- ton got ready to begin it's stunt.
 ."To ease 'em up a bit between real work the sergeant explained. we give lem games, but each of these ere games is meant to teach 'em some-
