 The road will enter Arkansas through Sequoyah county, Okla, com ing into Fort Smith at the foot of Garrison avenue, the citys main thoroughfare.

It is proposed to build this bridge at this time along with the highway.

 The cafes in the bazaar are fre- quented by the old clientele, but it S a crowd in which tobacco and coffee are scarce.
 "The Turks have taken everything" said Turkish rabbi, "even the pig cons on the mosque are getting thin"
 Kurds and the rabble even footed the hospitals, carrying off stoves, bedding, medicines and drugs. The native personnel of the hospital let in their friends and shared the spoil.
 With this assistance even lenses were taken from the microscopes. Happily, the British troops arrived in time to save the beds, or the patients would have been tumbled out on the hard floor.
 On the right bank of the river is a scene of scientific havoc. The Ger man wireless station had just been completed at enormous cost. It was powerful plant and was in direct communication with Berlin. It was blown up on the morning of March Ii, and the engineer did his work well. The roof of the station was carried away, there was huge crater in the center of the floor, one of the giant masts had fallen, crushing a wall,- and one of the two great boi- CTS had been blown up.
 The money invested in the wireless, the railway stations, sidings, work shops, water towers, cranes and en- gineering plant must have been mill lions. The British troops reached the railway station at a. III. The last train had gone at 2 a. m.

 FOR MARINE CORPS

 The marine corps helmet, with which the entire corps will be equip ped. is compromise between the French and the British types. 1t conforms to the size and shape of the average head and can be snug;y fitted by the adjustment of a cloth cap inside. It is made of single piece of chilled steel. Under test, the helmet resisted eight steel-jac1etei bullets at 100 feet from the Spring. field rifle, and broke only upon the impact of the ninth missile.

VETS WILL MEET
 AT WASHINGTON.
 DESPITE WARTIME
Arrangements for Reunion of Confederate Soldiers
 Near Completion.

Washington. D. G., April 19.-The fierce rebel yell,' blending in ca dence with the inspiring strains of "rhe Star Spangled Banner" will awaken the echoes and arouse patri- otic enthusiasm at the twenty seventh annual reunion of the United Confed- crate Veterans to be held at Washing ton, the week beginning June 4.
 As the men in gray parade over the wide stretches of Pennsylvania avenue, sometimes termed the 'na- tional boulevard" the impulse will come to sound their battle cry of more than 50 years ago, when this country was engaged in a great internecine war; At this time when the United States is at war with a great foreign power, the picture of the parading units of the armies of Lee, Stone wall" Jackson, and other Southern generals, will be an object lesson worth while. The venerable veterans of Dixie will be participants in the making of moving pictures of past age on the nations screen at Wash ington.
 Col Robert N. Harper, chairman of ING SCHSFdl COIHAlllltC OA CIIiACAo Aa charge of the reunion, announces that plans for the great gathering are pro- gressing notwithstanding the patri- otic activities incident to the declara- ton of war against Germany.
 It has been definitely decided that the big parade shall take place Thurs day, June T., at II o'clock a. m. By direction of Gen. George P. Harrison, commanding the United Confederate Veterans, the business sessions of that organization including the an- nual election of officers, will be held June, ,. 6 and z.
 Other events in the same week will he the conventions Of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, the Daughters of the Confederacy and the Confeder- ated Southern Memorial association, besides regimental reunions, and the social functions which always are elaborate features of the reunions. The citizens of Washington are re- spending literally to the call of H. F. Carry, chairman of the finance committee, for funds to entertain and care for their guests from the sunny Southland.

 The four followers of Carranza, or Villa, whichever be their favorite leader, got off the train to satisfy their appetites at a nearby restau- rent. When the train started. the Mexicans came running out of the restaurent, their arms laden with foodstuff, and race of 200 yards be- tween the train and the Mexicans re- suited. The crew stopped the train, and picked the laborers up, amid lib- eral applause from the spectators.

Especial to The Republican,

GLOBE, March 23.-More than 500
miners in the Globe and Miami Miners
unions will turn out in a body Sunday
afternoon April l to protest publicly
against the alleged persecution of
Thurls J. Mooney, convicted bomb
thrower and labor agitator who was
recently sentenced to death by Super
ior Judge Franklin Griffin in San
Francisco.
But the demonstration may not take
place according to conservative mem
bers of other union locals, who assert
that a vigorous protest against the
demonstration is being made. However,
it is predicted that the more radical
miners viii ignore the requests of other
locals and will await any physical at
tempt to prevent them from staging the
demonstration.
Rumors of an actual clash on the
streets of Globe are current tonight as
both factions are determined in their
objects. G. H. Frank Seberling, who
was elected last night to serve as Ia
Dor iuryman" for the local miners at
the Wienburg trial in Oakland, Calf,
is scheduled to speak on Broad street
Sunday afternoon. Many of the more
conservative unionists in the district
have openly declared that Seberling
will not be allowed to say a word"
The Miami miners union will invade
Globe in a body early Sunday before
the time scheduled for the demonstra-
ton.

tonight with all the survivors, who
were feeling well notwithstanding
the hardships they had undergone.
To the Associated Press, Captain
Christopher said;
If we had not shown our lights
we might have escaped. At SIS
o'clock Wednesday evening. l was
in the cabin when aroused by a ter
rifle concussion. All the lights went
out, and l rushed on deck in my shirt
sleeves to stop the engines. l found
that a torpedo had gone through
amidships at the spot where the
ships name was illuminated brightly,
wreckinS the engine room. The light
clearly served as a target.
THE lifebOatS were made ready
and equipped for lowering. l rushed
back to the cabin in the dark and
was just able to grab q coat and the

shook the ship. This time it had
been torpedoed aft, setting the tanks
ablaze. TIE burning oil ran in all
directions necessitating a quick get

emily having been cut from the tow
line prematurely, had capsized near
the ship and none of its occupants
was seen again.
Meanwhile the HealdtOn was set
Ting down fast by the stern. One or
two poor fellows in the bunkers never
came up and l expect they We're killed
there by the explosion. l just had time
to jump into a boat.
THE submarine came up once and
looked at the sinking ship. No signs
could be seen on the submarine, which
Immediately dived under water again.
In twenty minutes it was all over. Then
came II hours in open boats, insuffi-
ciently clad and exposed to bitter hail
and snow storms, until We We're picked
up by the traWler Java. There was
one Spaniard in my boat whose clothes
had been burned off. He died of eX-
posure.
According to my calculations we
were well within the so-called safe
channel when the Healdton was tor
pedoed."
