and was still in use a short time
ago. just east of the "Green
Lane" road, on the canal, were
two frame factories or shops, the
ownership of which was unknown
to me, but which obtained power
from the hydraulic. The mill races
led into the old bayou, and were
favorite places for the boys to
hunt for blood-suckers. What was

guess that one of them was used

time.
1t was at the mill race of one of
these abandoned mills that an oc-
currence took place that might
have turned out to be a fatal ac-
cident, but luckily it proved to be
nothing very serious. One of the
chums of my schoolboy days.
Charlie Kelley, and myself, were
playing at one of these mill races.
Part of the wooden frame work
was still in place and long plank
projected over the race just where
it entered the old bayou. Charlie
crawled out on this plank and be-
gan showing how nicely he could
"teeter' on it, as it was rather
springy, when suddenly the plank
snapped and my chum disap-
peared. dropping about twenty
feet to the bottom. Luckily, per
haps, for him, he landed in nice
soft place-mud and water-and

God Caused Italian
Collapse, Says Kaiser

A MSTERDAM, Nov. l7.-Ad-
vices received here from Ber-
lin say that the German Emperor,
In addressing a Brandenburg
regiment on the plains near the
Tagliamento. recalled the SOL
diers' share in the battles of the
Champagne, at Verdun and
Tarnapal. The Emperor said:
But you have had a greater
task, that of breaking through
the Italian front near Flitsch and
Tolmino---a heavy task consider
ing the high mountains and the
enemy's immense means of de-
fence. Your success exceeded all
calculations so greatly that
higher power than the power Of
man must have been at work.
The enemy's collapse was the.
judgment Of God"
In q later speech the German
Emperor said: 1--WE are fighting
for faithfulness, justice and
truth, and it is these that will
win."

Col House was particularly pleased
by the evidence that has come to him
that the members OF the American mis-

The plan has been that each American
member shall represent a department Of

authoritatively, thus results are rapidly

Of Young woman secretary TO a Vice
president Of this organization few days
ago. The young woman in question ~

Two weeks ago the Navy Department,
over one Of its privately leased telegraph
wires, ordered from the electrical sup
ply house in question large quantity
Of wire for subsea use. The order was
received by the vice-presideut. who in
turn transmitted II 10 a shipping clerk
long in the employ OF the company and
known TO be tried and true Two hours
after the receipt OF the order a message
was on its way to German agent In
Mexico informing him Of the transaction
and its probable significance.
The next day two secret service opera
tive. arrived in the offices Of the cleo
trical company's vice-president they
questioned him as to the means employed
! to safeguard the secrecy of the Govern
ments order and were told that none
:
I a Young woman long in his employ. and
| the shipping clerk knew of the transac-
! tion. The secret service men then an
nounced that a message to a German
agent In Mexico had been intercepted
nv tho cable censor and TUNED over TO
them. This message was the one which
| told OF the transaction.
The Young woman was called into the
| room and after being put through the
! third degree by the secret service agents
| admitted that she was the author OF
! the intercepted message to tho German
agent in Mexico. She said that while
her salary as secretary to the electric

she said. and this person offered her a
/ ann, equal to her salary II she would
communicate with the German agent In
| Mexico every time the Washington Gov
ernment placed large order with the
concern employing her. This. she said
she had successfully done for several
months.
The young woman was told to com.
municate with her family and arrange
TO have her effects sent to her at Ellis
island. She was interned that night, II
was announced yesterday. and few
days later she was shipped South to a
camp, where she Is now detained.
Secret service men declined to discuss
the case last night. hut from one Fedora

here told were correct. 1t was ex-
plained that no discussion OF the case
