The presence of many Hungarian troops in

that the farther the Hungarians are taken away

ALIEN ENEMY WOMEN
NEED NOT REGISTER

Instructions received by United
Stutcs District Attorney Huber from
Washington yesterday stated that all
alien enemy women in the Territory,
both German and Austrian would come
under the Jurisdiction of the enemy
alien act, beginning yesterday.
There are two exceptions made in
this new order, however, and that is
that alien enemy women will not have
to be registered nor will they have to
have thumb prints taken and other
marks of Identification made. This is
evidently a modification Of the original
proclamation, which called for the fore
going procedure. -

GETS Il FOE BALLOONS
AND z AERDs ina DAYS
Lieut.. Luke Of American Flying
Forces Shows Daring in
Aerial Battles.
By the Associated Press.

-
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON
THE LORRAINE FRONT. Thursday,
September 1s.-Ldeut. r. Luke Of Phoe-
mix, Ariz.. fattened his record Of enemy
balloon destruction yesterday. by shoot
ing down two additional balloons, max
ing total Of eleven In four days. In
addition he brought down two airpIanes
in that period.
One Of the lieutenant's victories over
an enemy plane was confirmed by him
self. He landed by the side Of the fall
len machine to make sure that its oc-
cupants did not escape and turned them
over to the French. He then returned
to his squadron with the confirmation
papers in his pocket.
Lieut.. Luke. who on Tuesday night
DESTROYED three enemy balloons inside
the German lines, added an enemy air
plane to his list of victories at dusk
yesterday. The fight took place near
Verdun.
Gasoline Exhausted.
On the flight Lieut.. Lhke's gasoline
to depend upon the small emergency
thankful with which all American air.
planes are equipped. Lieut.. Luke
turned on this supply-sufficient only
for ten minutes-and, though on the
German side of the lines. he went
after his two opponents, in Fokker
machines.
The first was an easy victim. fall
ing in the French lines. The second
fell on the German side. and Lieut..
Luke was unable to follow because
of his shortage of gas, and so landed
a few gills of gasoline when he en-
tered the fighting, the last few min
utes Of which he had devoted stimuli
taneously to fighting, guiding his
machine and operating his hand gas
oline pump.
Lieut. Edward v. Rickenbacher of
Columbus, Ohio, has downed two more
airplanes during the past Week, one
being officially confirmed. Lieut..
Rickenbacher is now officially credit
ed with six victories. The group to
which he and Lieut. Luke belong has
twenty-eight enemy airplanes- and
balloons to its credit since the Of
fensive began. Confirmation of these
victories has been found in nearly
all cases.
Originated Night Raids.
Lieut. Luke originated the idea of
night raids on enemy balloons, and he
has been very successful in carrying
them out. He was late in returning
one night from a raid and came down
in a wheat field, discovering il was not
too difficult to land at night Ivy the aid
of rocket flares. He ascertained the
hour when the enemy balloons were to
be filed and most of his attacks have
been carried out as the balloons were
about to ascend.
On the first day of the American Of
fensive Lieut.. James Knowles. jr., of
Boston. flying. over the retreating Ger
man artillery, saw that the roads were
badly damned. He added to the Con-
fusion by flying at height of about
ening the horses. He reported the con-
dition of the roads and an American
night bombing squadron was sent out.
These airmen wrought havoc in the
enemy artillery and greatly increased
the congestion on the road.

SUES FOR POSSESSION.
Realty Deal of G. T. Harreu Gets
Into Court.

Purchasers of real estate should de-
mand immediate possession of the
property purchased or they may find
themselves in the predicament OF
George T. Harrell, whose suit for a
specific performance to make Sylves-
Ter r. Bowen surrender to him premises
1906 Decatur street was dismissed to-
day by Justice Stafford of the Dis
trict Supreme Court.
Mr.. Harrell, in the agreement to
purchase, inserted provision that
Mr.. Bowen should surrender posses
sion by September 10 at rental OF
5000 per month. Mr.. Bowen claimed
that the acceptance of rent placed
Mr.. Harre1l in the position of landlord
and brought him within the provision
of the Salisbury resolution as inter-
preted by the Municipal Court. Mr..
Bowen also stated in his answer that
he had purchased 1915 Delafield street
but had not got possession.
Justice Stafford declared that the
word rent" has specific meaning in
the law and, as the seller could not
deny, he was tenant after the pur-
chaser has accepted rent; neither could
the purchaser deny thatsshe had be-
come a landlord by such action
Mr.. Harren noted an appeal to the
Court OF Appeals from the action of
Justice Stafford.

FRENCH PRONUNCIATION
NJ DR. FRAnlEa CRANE
(cspyrisht, 1Sia)
(Cspyrisht, 19iR)

A reader writes me and asks II II
won't please give the public = little
help on the pronunciation OF the
names Of French towns which We see
every day the paper1 -
In response, ]. maEea few. notes.
French pronunciation Is not hard to
learn. It. il not q hundredths part 80
difficult as English. Because It is
regular.
II you win look in the first few
pages Of almost any French grammar
you will find the rules for pronounce
ing the letters and combinations Of
letters. To these rules the exceptions
are very few and It will take but an
hour or SO to learn them. p
The reason why people stumble and
stutter over French is because they
have never learned these rules. They
would rather blunder for lifetime
than study one day.
For instance. the letters Az and
EAU wherever they occur are pro-
nounced like our o in GO. and they
never under any circumstances have
any other sound. yet haye heard
them often pronounced AW or OW.
EAU "a awater) is plain Q. and BEAU
There is not space here to give all
the rules. but you can find them in
the grammar.
A common mistake is to say that
French words are accented on the
has no accent. at all. Every syllable
should have equal stress. OF course
this seems to accent the last syllable
because in English we slur it. We
VIZ NNtr
word it would be enunciated SHE
CA-GO.
This makes the whole .tune" Of the
language different from ours. Be
sides, French has some sounds We
no TIL nor short Gas in bit) in
French. and we have no sound cor
responding to the French u.
So, in addition to learning the rules
it will be we'll to pay a few visits to
make the ear familiar with the
sounds.
And. just for greens, will add the
proper pronunciation Of a few French
Albert, Ahl-bair; scissors, Swah-song;
st. Quentin. Sang-kong-tang (you
mustn't really pronounce any of these
g's); Rheims. Ran(g)ce; Amiens. All
me-ang; Chaulnes, Shone; Chipilly,
She-pee; Ffsmes. Feem: Roye, Rwah;
sure to accent every syllable alike);
Noyon, No-yong Qong o. = esle, Nail;
Vesle, Vail; lIontdidier, Mong-dee-dee-
ay; Lens, Longce; Somme. Sum; Ourcq,
Cork; Aisne, Ain; Lys. Leece; Nancy,
Nahng-See, and SO on.
All Of which looks much more difficult
than it really is. !.
Compare it to English, where, for in
stance, the syllable ough has seven diff
ferent sounds, as in the couplet.
Though the tough cough and hiccough plough
me through,

He denies the wife,s allegations of
cruelty and desertion, and says that
she left him on more than one occa-

The husband admits that he repri-

whereupon she rushed at him with a

knocked from the table and the con-
tents splashed over his wife and himp
self, but the fluid was not hot enough
to injure either of them.

SHRAPNEL
Sidelights on the War
-BY-
OLIVER OWEN KUHN.

Frequently returning allied afrplanes
crumple up when landing at their air
dromes, though the landing itself may
be perfect This is due to the fact that
the machines are completely riddled by
enemy bullets, having just enough
strength to remain intact until 'shome''
is reached.
Men who are accomplishing great
things for the allied cause are the rfvet-
tons.
Riveters ordinarily work in squads Of
four, each squad consisting Of two ham,
mermen, a holder-up and a heater.
The last named is usually a lad, and
it is his duty to heat the rivets to q
He then passes them one at time to
the holder-up, who is inside the steel
hull, the two hammermen being on the
outside.
The holder-up inserts the point Of the
white-hot rivet through the hole that
has been previously drilled in the plate
for its reception. and holds a heavy
hammer against the rivet head while
the hammermen, with rapid alternate
strokes, knock down the Tivet point and
fiatten it out. There then remains
merely a slight lump on the surface of
the plate.
The above applies to manual rfveting.
But there are also machine riveters in
use, some quite small. others weighing
up to five or six tons. These force in
the rivets by means Of hydraulic and
pneumatic power.

Country girls are rarely beauties.
The bewitching country milkmaid is
