This is the first essentially keokuk
war picture to be produced. In the
center is Private Thomas B. Stack,
who was severely eassed by the Huns
on the night of May %. At each side
is small French boy. The little fell
low at the left has only one eye, the
right ono. The left eye was put out
by the devils of Germany. The reader
will note, too, that the left hand OF
the little fellow is missing. There is
just the stump. The Germans did
that, too. Stack started to describe
what happened to the little fellow in
his letter to County Attorney e. W..
McManus, but the censor cut out
most of the description Of the afro

scendants Of Attia. Stack was In

CUTS OFF HIS FINGERS
. AND THROWS THEM AWAY

Harrisonburg, Va, May ia re-
port reached here yesterday from
Camp Lee that Berlin BiIlhimer, a
member OF the national army from
Harrisonburg had chopped OF the
fingers on his right hand in an effort
to prevent his being taken to France
when his command is sent across seas.
According to the report Billhimer
had a perfect horror of being sent
across the water to fight the Hun.
Some of his companions were joking
him about the matter when he stated
he would kill himself before he would
go. Shortly afterwards he went to a
wood pile in camp, chopped the fingers
from his hand with a Ratchet and
then picked up the severed mem bers
and gave them toss some distance
away.
Billhimer left Harrisonburg with
the first increment of Rockingham sol
diers and since then he had been as
signed at the stables OF his company
and also in the harness repair shop,
with which occupation he was thor
oughly acquainted.
He is a married man with one child
and formerly lived on West Wolfe
street. At the time he was taken to
Camp Lee he made a claim for ex-
emptio1 on the grounds of having a
dependent wife and child, but his
wife failed to bear him out in the
statement that he was contributing to
her support.
He is a son OF Benjamin BiIlhtmer,
who lives east of Harrisonburg
According TO the report Billhimer is
now in the base hospital under heavy
guard and ii was said that as soon as
he is sufficiently recovered from his
self inflicted injury he will be tried
by military court martial.
