REALISTIC Trench
LIFEAT MEADE NOW
Men Make Sport Of Hardships, Con-
WINGED That The Worst Is
Coming "Over There"
"YELL LIKE BL AZES."
Throwing Mud Grenades Now a Fea-
ture OF The Training And
Make Good Scores

Writing TO the Baltimore News from
Camp Meade, e. j. Heath SAYS:
THE. mud of Meade no longer has
any terrors for the men of the Seven
ty-ninth Division. They regard every
puddle as a forerunner of the worst
to come over there and plunge and
splash through cheerfully. A trench
system Of 600 or 700 yards will be
maintained here by day and night un-
der all .hardships that can be
imagined
"a turn in the trenches will be as
much a part of the training as a hike
or drilling. There will be an enemy
in another trench and the warfare
will be carried on almost continuous
ly The engineers will have the task
of designing and constructing these
trenches and the infantry will hold
them There will be a toot-toot of
whistle and a battalion will sally
forth to capture the enemy trench.
Real Fighting Trenches.
These will be real fighting
trenches and not merely exhibition
bitches The artillery will have its
place back from the front and there
will be places for the machine gun
ners and those with other special
weapons. Barbed-wire entanglements,
hidden machine-gun complacements
and dug-outs for officers and men will
he adjacent to the fighting line
Already the companies are taking
turns at cooking with a field kitchen.
The cooks are expected to learn how
to do as we'll in the field as in the
well-equipped kitchens that are built
into every barrack building. A field
baking oven is also in operation.
"a feature of the training now is
the throwing of 'grenades. made of
the mud Of Meade or consisting of
few stones in pieces Of burlap. The
baseball players are discovering that
it is an entirely different matter to
hurl a grenade from the simple op-
GRAFTON of throwing a baseball. This
war game is more like cricket than
bt seball The stiff-arm, sweeping,
Northumberland motion is the one ne
eessary, The men Of the Three Hun
bred and Thirteenth are making fine
scores. They are putting about S5
per cent of the grenades into the box
l. arlIed as the trench.
"Yell Like Blazes."
yelling is an important feature of
TIE sham battle Run hard and yell
like blazes' was the advice of one of
the officers The war whoops were
suggestive of descriptions of Indian
fights. The Canadians have made
noise a big part of their problem of
attack The Germans do not like the
sound"

MOVING PICTURE ATTRACTIONS.
AZ The COIonial Thealre Tonight.

William S. Hart, in THE Narrow
Trail win be the extremely pleasing
attraction at the Colonial for this
evening.
Ice Harding (Bill Hart) and his
outlaws have spent many days trying
to capture Pinto pony before their
Efforts are finally rewarded. Ice,
leader OF men, is strangely attached to
the Pinto, leader of horses-each a
king Of bis kind The Pinto, finally
broken. becomes a great asset to Ice
In his business of holding up stages,
and wonderful affection springs up
between man and horse. The sheriff
of the county knows it is almost a
hopeless task to capture Zee so long as
he rides the swift-running Pinto, but
swesrs to get him some Jay.
Late one afternoon, Ice and his men
sight stage as il comes numbering
along mountain trail, and telling his
men that ne will do the job alone this
time, Ice motions them into the brush
and rides his Pinto to a safe eoign of
vantage, from whence, just as the
stage rounds the curve, ne springs for
ward, black mask covering his fea-
lures, and orders Hands UpI"
Knowing better than to disobey that
c mmand, the driver OF the stage
coach throws up mis- hands, and Ice,
after ordering the passengers from
the coach, takes their valuables.
Among the passengers is Admiral"
Bates, vice king of San Francisco,
and Betty Werdin, his pretty niece,
who at heart is a good girl, and de-
tests being made to lure men to the
resorts of her Infamous relative
Bates and Betty are on the way to
Saddle City to enjoy much needed
vacation. AS Betty steps forth to
take the rings from her fingers, Ice
lifts his sombrero, makes a sweeping
bow and says he reckOns ne isn't
takin' jewels from lady. After a
prolonged stare of honest admiration
Ice bows again, raises his sombrero
calamity, whistles TO tie Pinto,
mounts and rides away.
The driver of the stage hsetens to
the nearest town and reports the hold
up to Inc sheriff, VINO gathers his
posse and starts in pursuit Of the
bandit, but as usual, Ice on his pony
easily outdistances them.
This is only very small part of this
extremely interest," g and entertaining
story. A cowboy race, one Of the
most spectacular scenes ever filmed, is
the flnish to the picture. Ii wins Ice
an honest stake and the girl he loves.
Victor Moore in highly amusing
comedy will also be shown. This is
a pleasing show tonight, don't miss it.

Baltimore City's Mortality Rate High.
Communicated.
ne Editor:

The Editor:
Those of us who are interested in
the health of the State would like to
know how the filtration plant in Bal
timore is helping reduce the mortality
rate of the city.
According to the weekly health
bulletin published by the Census Blu
reau, the number of deaths in Balti-
more for the week ending October 6,
was 1S9, making the death rate 1876.
This placed Baltimore in the foremost
ranks as per mortality rate.
The highest death rate was that of
Toledo, Ohio, 1876; Pittsburgh with
17.2, came next; Albany, n Y, with
III. and Lowell, Mass, with 1863, are
the cities with higher death rate
than Baltimore.
New Haven, Conn, had death rate
of 65, and Portland, Ore, a rate of
6.S. 1t may be interesting to note that
none of the Southern cities are listed
in the high mortality list, and that
no city in the Mississippi valley is
listed either.
If the low rate in Portland and New
Haven is due TO their latitude, then
New Orleans and Tampa should be
ahead of Baltimore in the mortality
list
L To one who has lived in Baltimore
and visited in New Orleans, it does
seem strange that our citizens do not
demand the causes for this uncalled
for mortality rate in Baltimore.
We may refer to Baltimore's slum
section. Have you ever seen the
slums in New Orleans?
You may mention the sewerage sys-
tenn of Baltimore. Have you ever
seen the streets in New Orleans?
Have you ever visited Mobile? If
so, you will wonder why Baltimore,
With her naturally superior advant-
ages should outrival her in mortality
rate.
Have you ever tried TO drink the
water in Baltimore? If so, then you
may not wonder why.
