Today-"Without SOUL in which
Clara Kimball Young is more than
beautifully lovable, deals with most
interesting question-namely the
question Of life after death.
In this photoplay DR.. Barnhelun
commended that the soul did not
escape from the body at death. His
life work was devoted to experiments
which might prove his theory. He
finally succeeded in bringing the dead
to life, but it was by no means a
pleasant accomplishment 1t was the
drama of his life, and few there are
who would care to undergo the same
experiences that were his. If you
have never given serious considera-
ton to the question of life after
death "Without a Soul will set you
thinking. 1t will also thrill YOU
charm you, and leave you tremend-
Cusly entertained.

ITALIAN ARMY NEEDS ENCOUI
AGEMENT

ITALIAN ARMY NEEDS ENGOUR-
AGEMENT.
The first report on Sunday, Oct. 2s, by
the Italian war office concerning the at
ttude of some units of the Italian army
on the Julian front when the Austro-
German forces attacked viii be likely to
stir up considerable feeling in Italy, a
feeling which will not be wholly placated
by the hastily corrected version OF the
report issued later in the day. To charge
whole Italian units with cowardiee in the
face of an enemy advance is serious
matter and is not calculated to improve
the morale of the entire army, as we
have had recent proof in the case of the
Russians, Moreover the Italian war of
flee did not strengthen its position with
its allies by making this public charge.
1t is probable that the troops in ques
ton were in much the same frame of
mind as is the contestant who enters a
test against much Wanted adversary;
he feels lack of confidence, is shaky and
almost panicky at the outset and, as the
result, he allows his adversary to gain
the initial advantage, later finding him
self" so to speak, acquiring confidence
and then throwing himself determinedly
into the encounter. 0ftentimes the her
aided prodigy is found to be made of
common clay, gifted with little more
superiority at the start than mere repu-
tation for strength and cunning, and the |
panicky contestant eventually lands a
winner as he gradually exerts his own
great powers. So it may turn out to be t
in the case of the Italian army, which is /
now shaken by the Discrimination of some
of its units to fight the Teuton prodigy /
The British and the French have proven
that the German is not such a terror at
fighting, can even be beaten back Pos
sibly the whole Italian army viii grad
ually recover its poise and learn the same
thing after making desperate stand at
some advantageous point What it needs
is encouragement, perhaps a little en-
couragement in the shape of reinforce
ments from the British and the French.

Big Austro-German
Offensive On Italian
Front is Expected

Rome, March 27.-(Via Paris IA
great Austro-German offensive on
the Italian front is being predicted
freely throughout Italy. Information
reaching the Italian press from
Switzerland has convinced the news
papers that such campaign has been
planned by the central powers for
this spring. There is no uneasiness
apparent, however, but general
confidence that Italy. is fully pre-
pared.
General Cadorna is quoted by the
Giornale D'Italia as saying to Sal
vatore Barzalai, governor of the &C.
cupied Austrian territory:
whether they come or not, I am
acting on the principle that they will
enforce. am conscious of having
neglected nothing that past expert.

posts.
"The first element of success is the
active faith of the nation in, itself.
For the army to resist, the country,
whose every feeling is reflected by
the army, must resist also. Let 1t
have faith in itself and it will have
victory"

Belgians Deported
To Germany Are
Starving to Death

Havre, France, March 27.--The Bel
gian government has received by
trustworthy means letters from re-
sponsible Belgians who have been de-
ported to Germany. The letters,
dated at the end of February or early
in March, were written from the
camps in which the men are being
confined. Some passages follow:
Since February | we have had
only two meals a day. The one in
the evening has been discontinued
That was the best one, because we
had corn"
From another letter: at is fright
full here. We are dying of famine. We
have a ration Of bread, water and
beets. That is all. We are skeletons,
covered with skin. Thirteen men we
counted in the morgue yesterday and
fourteen today. That is from among
the 5000 or 1000 here. Conditions
are more frightful in the and
camps. If any one gives US a
little soup or something else to eat
he is punished with five days in
prison"
From another letter: 1.-THE situa-
ton becomes more and more unendur-
able from day to day. Every morning
two or three dead are found in the
huts. The doctors decline all respon-
sibility. Today l20 are dead at Camp
-. We hope for our deliverance

TONNAGE SUNK IN
MARCH FALLS OFF
British Data Indicates U-Boats
Destroy Less Shipping in
March Than February.
BEREsFoRD GIVES FIGURES

London, March 27.--Losses OF mer-
chant vessels amounting to more than
100000 tons thus far in March have
resulted from war measures of the
central powers, Lord Charles Beres-
ford said in the House OF Lords today.
In a debate in the House of Lords
on the British blockade, Lord Beres-
ford said that with longer days and
calmer weather the losses would IN
crease and that the public ought to
have the facts brought home to it.
The number of vessels destroyed thus
far this month was given by him as
2Ss.
Lord Beresford expressed the opin.
ion that captures Of submarines by
the British navy were not at all equiv
alent to the new submarines the Ger
mans were launching. He believed
the Germans had more men and more
food than had been imagined in Eng
land.
The foreign Office, he said. had too
much power over the navy to the de-
triment of the navy. The losses of
British, allied and neutral vessels for
February, he said, amounted to 281
vessels, with an aggregate tonnage OF
more than 100000. u
Figures given out in London on
March 3 placed the amount OF ton
mage DESTROYED by German stibma =
rines in February at about 100000.
No mention was made at this time OF
ships destroyed by mines. The Ger
man admiralty announced on March
10 that the aggregate gross tonnage
of merchant ships destroyed through
war measures of the central powers
was 78l 500. On the basis of the fig
ures given by Lord Beresford in the

HOLDEN ARGUES
FOR RATE RAISE
Burlington President Opens
Case for Railroads With
Plea for Increase.
HE GIVES SIX REASONS

Washington, March H.-The APP
pearance before the Interstate Com.
merce commission of President Har-
rison of the Southern railway and B.
F. Bush, receiver of the Missouri Pa
cihc, was the first official intimation
that the southern and southwestern
lines would ask increased rates.
President Holden of the Burling-
ton opened the argument for the
western roads.
Mr.. Holden based his application
for an increase in freight rates on six
grounds, as follows:
Increased wages to trainmen under the
Adamson law.
Increased wages to other employees, some
already granted, with others likely 10 fol-
low In the Immediate future.
Increased cost Of locomotive fuel-coal
and oil.
Increased cost of materials.
Increases in prices Of equipment.
Higher taxes.
Mr.. Holden said the roads had
come to the Interstate Commerce
commission first because they felt
that should the commission grant
their petition there would be less diff
ficulty in obtaining authority to in
crease interstate rates from the va
rious state boards and commissions
involved. Such applications, he said,
would follow ruling in the present
instance
1.-THE national outlook is clouded
with conditions of the most serious
character" Mr.. Holden said, "of suf-
ficient severity to indicate that the
transportation machine of the coun-
try must be brought to and MAIN
tanned at the highest possible STAN
dard of efficiency with the least pos
sible delay.
Need More Equipment.
"There is great need for more power
and equipment, more trackage and
larger terminals. To produce these
in the face Of these enormous in
creases in expenses requires sub
stantial increase in revenues through
an increase in rates, whereby addi-
tional money will be available to pay
increased operating and maintenance
expenses anu interest upon tue new
capital which will be required to
finance the Improvement and addi-
lions necessary"
The percentage of increase, Mr..
Holden said, was a subject which
would yet have to be determined. In
this connection he declared that re-
cent estimates fixing $60,000,000 as
the additional amount to be paid the
railroad brotherhoods under the
Adamson law was inadequate. and
that the amount would be consider
able larger than that figure.
Should the country go to war, Mr..
Holden continued, the resources of
the railroads, their plants and equip
ment would be placed, first Of all, at
the disposal Of the government. Such
action, he said, would not only de-
prive them Of large sum in CONNER
cial revenue, but would make scienti-
fic management OF the roads temper
arily difficult.
