BRITISH TROOPS
HAVE ATTAINED
PROMISED Land
Twelve Months of Toll in
Sinai Desert Followed
Pleasure in Rata.

With the British Forces in Pa1es-
tine, April 25.-After twelve months
of incessant toll in the Sinai desert,
sometimes fighting hard, always dig
ging, making military works, build
ing railways, constructing pipe lines
and roads. and marching over the
inhospitable wastes, the British troops
have at last come into the Promised
Land, says the story of the British Of
fetal eyewitness with the expedition.
What a marvellous change Of scene!
Behind them is a hundred miles and
more of monotonous sand, blazing
and shimnering under a torrid sun,
with here and there group of palms
to relieve the sameness of the desert.
Behind them, too. is the intolerable
glare of the MONDAY sun, which is
never softened except when the
jkhamseen lifts ire dust and forms a
screen through which the sun appears
as during an eclipse. But the sand
storm is a worse torment than the
penetrating rays for it's brings addi-
tional heavy labor to men with parch-
ed Threats and scorched skins.
The British troops in the desert
column are now free from these try
ing conditions. They are in Palestine.
Before them, as far as the eye can
reach, is unfolded picture Of tran
scending beauty. When the troops
from the desert come 4up over the
ridge to Rata and look out over the
billowy downs, they invariably break
into rounds of cheers
Before and around them everything
is green and fresh with the greenness
and freshness of springtime. Big
patches of barley, for which the plain
south Of GAIA is famous, shine like
emeralds, and the immense tracts Of
pasture are as bright and warm as
the rolling downs of Berkshire. There
is an abundance of gorgeous flowers
lighting up the vivid greenness Of the
plain as if in welcome to the oncom-
ing army. The effect of this scene on
troops who have become desert veter-
ans can better be imagined than des-
cribed.
Beyond Rata, reconnaissance par
ties may see the high ninaret of
GAIA above the dark framework Of
trees enclosing the town. The mos
que was formerly a Christian church
built by the knights Of Templar in
the twelfth century when the Cru
saders fortified themselves within Ga
Za's walls
Away on the right. beyond the
abandoned Turkish stronghold of
Wah Sheik Naron is Beersheba, tuck
ed in the plain beneath the southern
end Of the hills Of Judea.
The first town in the Promised
Land entered by the British troops
was Khan Yunus, a not unlovely col
lection of houses amid wonderfully
fertile gardens hedged around by i'm
penetrable walls of huge cactus with
stems two feet in circumference. From
a distance the green foliage of or
chards and gardens provided de-
lightful foil to the sand dunes which
hid the view of the Mediterranean's
blue waters. Khan Yunus is mere
shadow of it's former self. 1t has
a mean bazaar, and there are ruins
Of once sumptuous palace.

APRIL RUSH FOR
MARKERS STOPS
CENSUS OF CARS
Work Probably Will Be Re-
sumed About May 1, at
Capitol in Hartford.

Hartford, April 25-Work on the
taken in this state under the direction
of Frederick l.. Perry, secretary of
the state, has been stopped tempprar-
lily on account of the great rush Of
autom obile owners to get their 1917
markers and will not be resumed I'M
til about May 1. The April rush of
autom obile owners has been greater
than ever before in the history Of the
autbm bile department and the total
receipts for the department will
amount to very near the $1,0O0,OOO
mark before the rush is ended
Approximately 800 cards have
been mailed to owners of pleasure
cars, trucks, side-cars and motor
cycles since the census started and
the work is only about half COM
pleted.
class of questions comes from car
owners who ask how long they shall
have to pay for the maintenance and
upkeep of their cars while in gov
eminent service? How their insur-
ance will be affected and what are
the conditions under which the cars
will. be taken over by the state? In
reply it may be stated that it is not
the intention Of the census to inter-
fere in any way with the full and free
use by the owner of any vehicle or
vehicles offered for use in case Of
emergency. Should any Of the cars
which have been or hay be thus Of
fered to the state be called for in the
case of an emergency all details COW
ering their USE insurance and upkeep
would be arranged for at the time.

GREATEST PITCHERS HAVE.
aFAILED TO PITCH NO HIT
e CAME, RECORDS DISCLOSE

New York, April 25.-Pitching no
dit game is an achievement, albeit at
tended generally with a bit or luck.
Some of the best pitchers baseDall mas
known never have succeeded III pltcn-
ing a no hi game. For instance, In
all his years Of success, Walter john
son has never succeeded In getting
away with a no hit game. A few sea-
sons ago Johnson lost the distinction
by an unfortunate ground rule, winch
gave Frank Baker a double into a
crowd on opening day when ordinarily
the ny would have been an easy out.
Eddie Plank, veteran of many
years, has never yet landed a no hit
contest. The same goes for Grover
Cleveland Alexander, one. Of the best
in the game for several seasons
Quite frequently pitchers have been
beaten out of the distinction. Beals
Becker deprived Nap Rucker OF such
laurels in game in Brooklyn few
seasons ago by throwing his bat at
pitch in the ninth inning with two out
when he wasn't really trying to hit
the ball at all.
The season just beginning promises
well for American league hurlers. Al
ready two no hit games have been
registered. Edd.s Cicotte Of the White
Sox,l after IL years in big league COM
pany, succeeded in his ambition. Now
Mogridge has added to the total. Last
season there were three in the Amer
lean league. asDutch" Leonard and
George Foster, both Of the Red Sox,
went through nine innings without
allowing a hit. Joe Bush Of Connie
Mack's Athletics also performed the
feat.
Seven seasons out OF a total Of II
have failed to produce a single no hit
game in the American league. This
proportion gives in a measure an
5'ea of the difficulty Of the perform
anco.

Sources Of War Finances.

The United States is financed In the
war by loans and taxes. 1t obtains
funds from the people by taxation and
sale of bonds, then goes into the mar
kets and buys from the people what 1t
needs.
There are three sources from which
the country can draw its sinews OF
war. First is the fixed property OF
the nation. representing farms, fac
tories, mines, railways. and all other
property, including accumulated saw
ings. From the body Of none OF these
except accumulated savings, will the
government obtain war funds, and
even from accumulated savings 1t Will
draw a relatively small portion. They
are invested in businesses and indus
tries necessary to the country's well
fare. 1t is only that portion of these
savings that is seeking investment,
that the government will receive in ex-
change for bonds
The second and great source Is a
tax on the wealth produced during the
war. The annual production of farms.
mines, factories and other sources
amounts to fifty billion dollars year,
and out OF this will come the funds
with which the country will finance
/ itself
By taxation this generation Will pay
its proportion Of the costs Of the war.
| BY the sale of bonds, the third source
of income, the next generation is call
ed upon to pay its portion and this
will come from the wealth produced
after the war.
By these three methods the capital
of the country, its sources OF income
and wealth, are unimpaired. 1t Is but
the yearly increment of this property
that is called upon to bear portion
OF the cost of the war. Thus despite
the waste of war the country may
emerge from the conflict stronger IL
nancially and even more wealthy than
before. The government receives funds
from the people without impairing the
sources of wealth, and passes 1t back
in exchange for the products OF the
country.
