tor Of the $10,000,000 campaign Of
the American Jewish Relief Com
mittee in behalf of the Jewish war
sufferers in Europe, announces
from all parts Of the country re-
suits exceeding expectations have
been secured through mass meet
ings held under the committees
auspices.
In nearly every city where mass
meetings have been held sums dou-
BILE those given in the first two
years of the war have been contri-
buted toward the 1917 fund.
Many prominent speakers have
given up their other work to adj

Magnes, DR.. Stephen S. Wise, Rab-
bi Leon Harrison Of ST. Louis, Nor

In addition to this, the effort to
secure some one in each community
who will agree to give 10 per cent
of the total contributions in that
community, as Julius Rosenwald,
Of Chicago, has pledged himself
to do for the entire country up to
$10,000,000, has been very success
full. Mr.. Rosenwald is willing to
give 81, 100000 himself. Six other
men have agreed to give 10 per
cent of the entire sum raised in
their respective states, and nearly
forty men have agreed to do the
same in their respective cities, the
following having been added dur
ing the week to the latter: Isaac
Rubin for Minneapolis; Hyman
Krupp for Ell Paso, Tex; Henry
Weinberg, for Seattle, WASH; Ju-

May Is, 1917.

The news coming from many
provincial towns of the arrests and
punishments meted out to the anti
Semitic leaders brings much joy to
the Jews. The hope is entertained
everywhere that the old regime
will never return and that the new
era of peace and many blessings
has dawned for the Jews. The po-
grom agitation in southern Russia
is still in progress, but the soldiers
are everywhere the real pro-
tectors of the Jews. In Benderi, in
Bessarabia, real pogrom occur
red, but the soldiers scattered the
hooligans in time.
The donations for Jewish tenn
pie of liberty, towards which the
Jewish millionaire, Bernstein, gave
a quarter of a million roubles, are
constantly increasing. The latest
large donation comes from a Chris
tian, Zivotovski, who gave 100000
roubles in cash and large house,
which is valued at nearly half
million roubles.
The Jews of Odessa subscribed
to the new government liberty loan
the sum of thirty million roubles.

AT THE ELKO


Bessie Barriscale plays twin SIS
tiers in a. new Triangle play, "The
Snarl." produced under the supervi-

Miss Barriscale has never created
finer character studies than the twin
sisters, one of noble, inspirational
charm and the other frivolous
creature without soul.

BASEBALL PITCHERS WOULD BE
FINE GRENADE TOSSERS
BY Mark Shields

BY Mark Shields
If Cap. Illusions plan to have the
balplayers try military drill in spring
training camp is adopted the Mack
men, Cardinals, Reds and a few 9TH
ers will have a big advantage in
knowing how to dig themselves in.
And there are more than a few
pitchers who would do well in the
aviation corps.
The umpires need no war drill.
They know all about murder and
sudden death.
American baseball stars could play
a big part in the effectiveness of the
United States army in case of war
with Germany and if an expedition
airy force was sent into the trenches!
Trench fighting has reverted in a
sense to the primitive and the hurl-
ing of hand gTenades and bombs
plays an important part in the battles
being Waged between the men in the
frst-line dugOuts.
"A great pitcher would be worth
his weight in radiUm to the armies
on the western front, says Paul Yer
dieT, a French officer, now in the
United States. Baseball stars, men
who are accurate thrOwers, would be
Of inestimable value.
French soldiers can throw fairly
accurate, bUt~a man trained in base
ball would be able to throw further
and with much greater accuracy.
THE allied troops on the western
front have far exceeded the Germans
in bomb hurting, but there is much to
be desired"
This brings to mind the new hand
grenade, suggested by baseball and
invented by an army officer, formerly
a West Point pitcher.
The grenade is the size of a base
ball and is so made it cannot be de-
tOnated unless thrown from an at
rchment in the thrower's hand

=
fetal spitball
The attachment slips off the ball as
it leaves the hand after it has given
the ball a spin and sets the plunger
which causes the bomb to explode
on contact.
The invention is regarded as one of
the most important developments in
bomb warfare.
Hand grenades now used in Eu-
rope are dangerous. They explode
easily and are not equipped with
safety devices to protect the throw
er. They are often dropped with
disastrous results in the trenches or
in charges.
The American invention may be
thrown or dropped without eXplOd-
ing unless the plunger is set by the
hand attachment.
The formula for the explosives in
the bombs and the secret of the de-
tOnatOr are carefully guarded secrets
of the ordnance bureau of the army.
