EIFFEL TOWER DID
 BIT EARLY IN WAR

General Clergerie, who was chief of staff to General Gallieni at the Battle of the Marne, has recalled some cru cial events that turned the tide of the war. To begin with, the Eiffel Tower played a useful part, and those who never admired the 300-meter iron mon- ument are now reconciled to it.
 The German commanders, appar- ently under the delusion that the French were too stupid to know any thing about wireless, used the latter constantly in communication among themselves All these messages were tapped by the Eiffel Tower and, when necessary, decoded, but half the tims the Germans did not even take the trouble to use cypher. Thus amons other interesting pieces of informa : tion General Clergerie learned that General Won MarwitZ, commanding the cavalry in Won Kluck's army, in formed Won Pluck that his men and horses were spent and could not move for two days: that the mensfell asleef' with exhaustion on their saddles, and that nearly all the horses wanted re- shoeing.
Arizona republican., 1917-12-21

Another useful message tapped by the Eiffel Tower was one, September g. from Won Kluck himself, saying that he was retiring with his first army, and in fact telling the other army commanders bluntly, You must hurry up; I am clearing out
 General Clergerie also gives the first authentic account of the historic taxi cab day of September '. A new a. vision arrived that day to join the Paris army, but how to get it out to the front, nearly 40 miles away, in time? Railway transport. it was found could carry only 5000 men. How were the remaining 5000 to be got out?
 Clergerie had an inspiration. and decided to risk using taXicabs. Gal lieni approved. Clergerie had 100 taxis permanently at his disposal, bu, wanted six hundred. Each taxi could carry five men, and thus in two jour- neys 500 could bring 5000 men to the front. They must be ready by 6 o'clock. A requisition order was sent out at i o'clock. The news spread Ike wildfire in the taxicab depots and, as Clergerie says, it was a curious signy to see many chauffeurs driving fares in the Paris streets suddenly stop on hearing of the order, turn the fare ou, and start off at once ito go into ba,- tle," and by o'clock the 500 taxis stood ready at Gagny, just outside Paris. They were inspected by Gal lieni.
 Two routes, going and coming ro> the double journey. were mapped out, relief cars with tires and petrol drov. at intervals in the procession and stores were also placed at points alon> the road. The taxis, each carrying five men, started 20 yards behind one another, and in two journeys the 600 taxis had brought 5000 men by day break, ready to go into the battle or the Ourcq, and win it, which they dic.

f men in the major leagues are excel lent trapshots.
 Ty Cobb is as ardent a shooter as he is a ball player and goes at the shooting game just as strenuously as he does baseball. Tyrus, with E. S. Rodgers, of Cleveland, and John Phillip Sousa, Jr, own 6,000 acres of well-stocked hunting ground on the Savannah river in Georgia and on this private preserve the greatest sticksmith of them all spends the greater part of his vacation. On one excursion last winter Cobb and his partners bagged 250 quail
 Jack Coombs, one of the wisest hurlers that baseball has ever known is also an ardent shooter and every year he gathers a bunch of ball players to gether for an expedition in Maine.

With the baseball season over and the winter the knigths of the dia- mond show interest in other pas times. The great majority of major league ball players devote that off season to recreation as they see it for to them baseball is work
 A great many of the star ball tossers of the American and Nation al Leagues are excellent shots with the trapgun and devote considerable time to shooting in the field and at the traps during the five months that the pay check doesn't filter in with the mail.
 Chief" Bender, whose remarka- ble pitching with the Phillies the past season, is still the sensation wherever baseball is discussed, is old land of ours and the Chippewa may be located at the Reidemann Club traps in Camden, N. J., several afternoons each week.
 Bender, with Harry Davis, captain of the Athletics, Christy Mathewson, manager of the Cincinnati Reds and Otis Crandall, now hurling in the Pa cific Coast League, toured the coun- try several years ago as a trapshoot- ing squad and their performances awakened interest of other ball play CTS to the sport.
 Grover Cleveland Alexander, who has turned in thirty victories in each of the past three years for the Phillies, is another who is an excel lent shot and he paired off with Bender in a number of matches last spring. Billy Killefer, Alexander's battery mate, and Oscar Dugey, who is also on the Phils' payroll, are pretty nifty in the breaking of clay targets.
 Joe Bush, the veteran hurler of the Mackmen. is another, and is quite at home at the traps or in the field. He is just as good a shooter as he is a pitcher-and he is a mighty good pitcher. Iris Speaker is a good shot and so is Joe Jack son, in fact all of the leading bats

from George Neale, in charge of the Sacramento office of the Cali fornia Fish and Game Commission. Judge F. w. Henshaw of the Su- preme Court of California under took to capture some of these geese. Accompanied by Sam Lamme, pro- fessional hunter, Judge Henshaw went into the most unfrequented and inaccessible parts of a lake on the grounds of the West Butte Country Club, in Sutter county. Lamme's marvellous skill in calling wild fowl resulted in calling large numbers of the American white fronted geese. Lamme pointed out in the neighborhood a large goose and declared that these "tule" geese never join the white-fronted geese.
 Examination at the University proved that there are two well-de- fined sub-species of the goose here tofore known as "Anser albifrons. Of these, the bird which will be known hereafter as the white fronted goose" or 9nser albifrons albifrons,' is smaller, while the newly recognized Anser albifrons gambeli is considerably larger, the male weighing over seven pounds, while the other goose has eighteen instead of sixteen tail-feathers, and the naked skin at the edge of the eyelid is yellow or orange, instead of grayish- brown.
