A DtrefuI Tragedy

The town L live in has had a fear

four hours. An automobile filled
with some of the best women of she
place who were out for a pleasure
ride-two ladies and two children.
owned and driven by the wife of the
beloved Presbyterian pastor. She
was an expert automobilist and no.
body dreamed of any accident or mis-
hap. A friend of mine, who lived
a few hundred yards from the rail
road crossing, saw the car, and
knew them all. She tells me She
also saw the fast passenger train
strike the car, and it was crumpled
up like an egg shell. The mother of
the pastors wife, lady friend and
one child were killed inside the
thrown under the rushing train, both
hands and feet were cut off. The
dear lady who drove was outside the
car, but perfectly frantic. The ladies
who were killed outright had their
necks broken, and the youngest child
died in a doctors office, where they
vainly tried to restore him.
There was curve in the railroad
and although the whistle blew, the
car went on the track, to meet its
doom.
The town is filled with sorrow and
gloom. Two homes have two coffins
each, and the dear lady who drove
is in a serious condition. Her moth
er and little daughter are a reminder
of her awful loss. both killed, and
how she escaped is now and will al
ways be mystery.
The other home is very sad. A
young wife, and herself an only child,
the idol of her family, and the deaf
little son, are in their collins await
ing burial. A few months ago we
had another tragic episode of like
character, the car filled with happy
people, and overrun by the same
train, at the same hour, but nearer
town. Truly. in the midst of life
we are in death. These automobiles
are to be looked at from two points
of view. Their mortality is simply
staggering.

March Denies Heavy
Losses Were Suffered
By the sd Division

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-Demobil-
ization in the United states is now
proceeding at the rate of $4,000 men
released from service in the army
every day, General March announced
today. 1t still is anticipated that
rate of 10000 a day will be reached
when the full momentum is attained.
The chief of stan set at rest ru-
more that the Eighty-second division
had suffered unusually heavy casual
ties, one report having been that 6O
per cent of it's personnel had been
killed. wounded or captured.
A report from the division, dated
November Is. two days after fight
ing ended. General March said, re-
corded that PA officers and 5,253 men
we're needed to fill the organization
to its full strength of approximately
$1,000 officers and men. The record
of this division shows that it enter
ed the line in the Argonne forest DC
tober 6, pressing across the Atre
river until October 20, after which
date there is nothing in the war de-
partment to indicate that it was in
action.
$4,000 Designated
The war depa! .fnent has now deS-
ignated a total Of $4,000 men in the
United States for discharge, an in
crease of nearly 100000 during the
last week. General March made 1t
clear, however. that designation OF
troops does not mean immediate dis
charge, but severance from the serv-
ice as their turn is reached in de-
mobilization.
Among the new branches of the
army TO be included in the demobln-
zation orders are $4,000 Porto Rican
troops ordered discharged. Of the
total of $4,000 men designated, 352,-
600 are in depot and development bat
talions and similar limited units. In
addition $4,000 men on Industrial tur-
Tough have been ordered released.
Rapid Demobilization
disqualification of officers is pro-
ceeding more rapidly than is the case
with the men. General March said
a total of 17,203 officers had been
honorabIy discharged since the arml-
stice was signed.
Summarizing the flow of returning
troops from France, General March
said a total of $3.50 officers and 1885,
262 men had been designated for re-
turn by General Pershing up to De-
cember IL. Of that number 1873 Of
ficers and 30.703 men have actually
sailed from France.
The Eighty-second division, which
was stationed at Camp Gordon before
il went overseas, was composed If
New York and Massachusetts troops,
but was largely Differed by Atlanta,
Georgia and other southerners.

Poll Perritt Says He is
 Through With Baseball
Finds Selling Automobiles in Shreveport More Pro fitable Than Pitching for Giants at Polo Grounds.

New York, March 2-Mr. George Perritt of Shreveport, La., right handed pitcher for the New York Giants, says he's through. No more baseball for him. He will not play for John J. McGraw in 1918, and never, never, never will bend another outshoot over the old pan at the Polo Grounds. So he says.
 It seems that Perritt, who is known as "Polp' to a few million persons, heard that John McGraw was plan ming to go to Shreveport, La, where Poll lives, to sign him up as a hold out, Standing in the middle of Shreveport's busiest street, Poll said yesterday:
 Ut won't do any good for McGraw to come here to sign me to anything unless he wants to buy an automo- bile. I'll sign a contract with him on that, and it won't be f. 0. b. Mar lin, Tex, either. I'm through with baseball-through forever. I'm sell ing automobiles now, and the selling is good. I have no dispute with the New York Baseball Club over any thing, but I won't sign to play ball because I can't I can make more money in the automobile business. Sc Mr McGraw might as well save his money and stay away from Shreve- port.
 At the Giants headquarters yester- day it was said that McGraw was or l bis way to confer with Davy Robert son, who lives at Portsmouth, Va Ferd Schupp at Louisville, Ky, anc Arthur Fletcher at Collinsville, III. and didn't intend to go to Louisiana So Poll won't get any coaxing. ever though he did win seventeen game: last year and lose only seven. ant stood second to Grover Alexander 1T l effectiveness among the Nationa League twirIers with an earned TUT | percentage against him of only IS! runs per nine inning game.

TWO MORE TANKS READY FOR
 SEASON

New York, March 2 - Slowly the Yankees are coming to terms. Two more were added to the fold yester- day. Frank Gilhooley. the right fielder, and Muddy Ruel, one of the young catchers, sent in their signed 1918 contracts. Gilhooley for the past two seasons has been victim ot serious injuries which have kept him out of the game for the greater part of both seasons. He broke his leg sliding to a base in 1916, and in 1917 he was put out of the game with a broken collar bone. On both occa- sions Gilhooley was playing good ball and showed promise of being one of the best hitters on the club.
 Manager Miller Huggins stated that the deal for Tillie Walker. now the property of the Athletics, had not been completed. He confidently ex- poets that the majority of his players will be signed by the end of next week. Frank Baker, Bob Shawkey, and Walter Pipp, three of the main stays of the club, have contracts which hold over for the present seal son.

 BASEBALL MEN

New York, March 2.-Baseball prac- tice for the Columbia varsity team will begin on Monday of next week in the cage in the university gymna- sium- Andy Coakley, who will be in charge of the squad, will receive the first batch of candidates daily at 2:15, and from that time until o'clock there will be regular practice until the base of operations shifts to South Field, when the squad will not report until later in the day.
 F'irty candidates have enrolled for the team, and by Monday Coakley ex- poets to have half as many again lined up. Veteran material is short, but there is wealth of promising youngsters in the freshman class who played on their school teams, and from these Coakley believes he will be able to organize a fairly strong nine
