POLICE HANDLE
RECORD CROWD
Every Available Officer Re-
quired as Lid Is
..r Torn Off,"

Three hundred and fifty policemen,
including every available man on the
police force, maintained order last
night on Pennsylvania avenue north
west and other thoroughfares
amongst the biggest, noisiest and best
natured crowd that ever strolled up
and down that historic thoroughfare.
When the news reached the public
that hostilities had ceased, Mai. Ray
mond Pullman, superintendent of po-
lice. notified all precincts in the city
10 have every man ready for instant
call. Not a man was allowed to have
his customary night off.
The traffic problem was the most
complicated one the police have ever
been called upon to solve, and Mai.
Pullman stated that they did 1t re-
markably well. The number of traffic
accidents on Pennsylvania avenue.
where ii seemed that everybody in
Washington and within twenty miles
around had congregated, were so few
in number as to be almost negligible.
At least 5000 vehicles of every de-
scription were out, and all of them
loaded to capacity and many over
loaded and displaying glaring lights
and all of them footing their horns
for all they were worth.
The dexterity with which pedes-
trians lodged in and out between
moving vehicles without getting hurt
amazed the police. Small boys on
roller skates hung onto the rear of
automobiles and caused the police the
greater part of their worries.
A Regular steam Roller.
Maj. Pullman replied to a query
as to whether or not he intended to
put up with laXness on the part of
the public with this remark IF
you saw a steam roller bearing
down on you in such a manner that
you were convinced you couldn't get
away from it, what would you do?"
The crowd completely took pos
session of Pennsylvania avenue.
The lid" was off for the night and
the police were as good natured as
the crowd. Lots of things hap
pened which would ordinarily sub
Jsct the offender to arrest, but last
night was THE" night as far as
the public was concerned and since
such night comes but practically
once in lifetime, more official eyes
were "winked" than ever before.
1t cannot be said that the police
were caught unawares with the
news that big doings" would take
place. They had ample notice and
prepared for it in methodical man.
ner and there was absolutely no
confusion in the ranks as to what
TO do or when to do it.
Yet on the other hand, the police
did not have the benefit of weeks
of preparation that they usually
have when they receive instructions
to get ready for an inaugural pa
rade. Mai Pullman and Inspector
Grant both stated that the crowd
on Pennsylvania avenue last night
was the largest one they have ever
had to contend with.
Two engine companies responded
to false alarm at Tenth and D
streets northwest and with great
difficulty managed to get through
the crowd. The alarm sounded at
O'Clock. just at a time wnen things
were beginning to warm up"
Away from the crowd and in sec
tiOns of the city left without the
usual number of uniformed police
because of conditions on Pennsyl-
vania avenue automobile thieves
were busy and eight cars were re-
ported stolen.

Coal Miner Loads 438
Tons of Coal in Month

A splendid record for coal loading
has been set up by Rudolph Cheney,
a Confer. Pa. miner. Cheney loaded
43S tons of coal during the month OF
September, or an average Of eighteen
tons each working day for that
period, according to information fur
nished to the United States Fuel Ad-
ministration.
Although Cheney's work does not
establish a new high mark for coal
loading, it was such an exceptional
performance for the field in which
he was employed that the record was
reported to the United States Fuel
Administration.

THE BOYS AT THE FRONT
WATCHING LIBERTY LOAN
6y Lieut.. George Savage, Fighting
Priest Of the French Army, Who
Fought In the Trenches More
Than Three Years.


France did not want war. She did
everything that she could in honor do
to prevent war, but war was forced up
on her by Germany.
For four years France has waged
this war with her whole soul and now
America has come into the struggle
with all her power In man and mate
rial resources.
We are now sure that we can win
this war. We have for the last few
months witnessed the turning of the
tide In favor of the allies, but we
should not, however, be led away by
our recent successes.
Let the people at home understand
that they, as well as the men on the
fighting line, have to take their share
in the struggle. This war is not war
of soldiers alone, 1t Is war of ma
tons. The front is not lover there"
only, 1t is everywhere.
The men over there are doing their
share. They are giving their lives.
Let the people at home understand that
the only business today is to win the
war.
Let nobody be deceived as to the dur.
alton of the war, or conclude from our
recent successes that the end is near.
We shall win. We are at turning
point. But the end Is yet far away.
1t Is my cOnvlction-and all soldiers

the front, will tell you the same thing.
that this war may last two or three
years more. Woe to us, If, by false
optimism or weakness In our determi-
nation, we should come to slacken in
our efforts. Our mistakes should have
to be corrected with the blood of our
boys.
The boys at the front are watching
this Liberty loan. They shall judge
by the amount subscribed of the inter-
in the county, or town are taking in
their efforts and in their sacrifices.
They know that when the order comes
to attack 1t is their duty to go and to
give their lives If necessary, and they
are willing to do it. But they feel, too,
thar when the call comes from the
president to the people at home to give
the money necessary for the prOsecu-
ton of the war, it is the duty of every
one to give all that he can and that the
people at home should be willing to
do II. 1t is their share-and how
small when compared to that of the
lighting man-in the struggle.
Let the men ut the front know and
feel that the people ut home are heart
and soul with them in this war; that
the people at home are ready to make
every effort and every sacrifice as long
as will be necessary to win that com
plete and decisive victory which shall
secure for all nations freedom and
lasting peace.

1900 New York Doctors
Fighting Poison Gas.

Do you know that you folks at home
as we'll as the brave boys cover there"
are menaced by "poison gas"-the
insidious kind that steals away health
and the JOY of living, in the perpetually
recurring disturbances resulting from
gassy, sour stomach.
1900 New York physicians regularly
prescribe JOHNS DIGEST Z
TABLETS as the most perfect form
of relief known for these stomach dis
orders. The TABLETS are highly
beneficial for gastric and intestinal
indigestion, heartburn, acid or sour
stomach, hatulence and gastric catarrh.
They sure do vanish that poison gas
which is the basis of most stomach
ailments, as we'll as Danish bad breath
which usually heralds that gas-flled
stomach.
Get the TABLETS at your drug
store. Theyinsure quick, lasting relief
by taking three to six dissolved in a
glass of water or chewed before swall-
owing. Have JOHNS DIGESTIVE
TABLETS handy in the dining room
for chronic cases of gastric or intes-
final indigestion-as one or two TAB
LETS should be taken before each
meal. q
