Here the escaped. convict decid-
ed that walking was too slow, so
selecting a handsome touring car
from among the many which
stood in front of the Catholic
Church, yesterday afternoon, the
desperate calmly drove toward
Mexico and freedom. AS the
stolen car passed the City Hall
the attention of Mounted Police

efficient officer gave chase, call
ing upon the fugitive to halt.
The car, was driven over to
Morley Avenue, and along that
thoroughfare toward Mexico,

took possession of theEar, which
belongs to Mrs. Harry Hines;
and it was returned to the owner
by the vigilant officer. The
prisoner No. 1897, was lodged in
the townsjail, and no doubt he
will be returned to Florence,

THE PASSOVER
The Great Jewish Feast CommemOra-
tive of the Escape From Egypt
Begins This Evening

| <AO ONI0SV CtllO OfOIlhS SllSl
will begin the great feast of thu
Passover. the great jewish fast
ivalcommemorative of thesparine
of the first born of Israel, and the
escape of the Hebrew people
from bondage in Egypt. 1t falls
on the first full moon of the
Spring, from the 18th to the 21st
of the Month Nizan, and it conti-
nues eight days.
While they remained in posses
sion of Palestine the Israelites,
at the time of this festival,
assembled in the tabernacle, and
from Solomon's time in the tenn
Pile. During the eight days of the
feast they were commanded to
eat only unleavened bread, be-
cause their hasty departure from
Egypt obliged them to take their
dough with them unleavened,
hence the name of Feast of
Unleavened Bread !" Upon the
evening of the first day every
family ate a lamb, served up
without breaking the bones.
Offering of the firstlings Of the
flocks and horns, and first fruits
were presented in the temple.
With the orthodox Jew the Pas
sover was and still is the princi-
pal festival of the year,
The supper of the Passover
was served with elaborate and
formal ceremonial, and there
were various dishes, each with
it's own peculiar significance, to
which allusion was made in the
course of the feast the recital
developing the story of the
Exodus from Egypt, and the
afflictiods suffered by the He
brews at that time.
In the days of the Second
Temple this festival was Ubserv-
ed in the most elaborate manner.
1t is related that in the year 65

SEICHEPREY Fight
AS BERLIN SEES IT
Attempt to Cast DisCredit on
Americans in Battle

The Hague, April 25.-The German
operations against the Americans at
Seicheprey still receive notice in Ber-
lin and other German papers received
here. 1t is now asserted that Paris re-
ports regarding the Seicheprey affair
are pure inventions, especially the de-
tails Of the reoccupation of trenches
given by the French wireless service.
The French version seems to be that
the Americans successfully recon-
quered the lost ground, while, accord
ing to the German report, no attempt
was made by the Americans to regain
their positions until about midnight on
the 21st, when their patrols cautiously
reconnoitered them. But, says the
German report, not till between and
6 o'clock on the morning Of the 22d
did the Americans resume possessi on
of their lost positions that had been
completely destroyed on the evening
of the 20th.
Those German propaganda reports
also say that the Germans never
planned to continue the occupation of
Seicheprey, which, being situated on
very low ground, is not In any way
suitable for defensive purposes.

front comment on the Seicheprey

Osborn says in the Vossische Zeitung;
according to the Americans own
assertions, they hoped to prove the
military superiority of American SOL
diers by surprising raids, by the ten
acity of nerve which Is the character
istic of a young nation, and by their
dexterity In hand-to-hand fighting
gained in the practice Of many sports.
But they have become victims of a
complete surprise in the section of
the Moselle hills that has been en-
trusted to them because at that shot
each opponent was able to look right
into the others position and observe
at long range any offensive prepara-
tons. Only a short artillery prepara-
ton sufficed to take two and half
kilometers Of their position, with
scarcely any loss on our part, and in
the fight OF man to man in and
around the village American boxer
tricks awaited little against our war
veterans. If here American troops
paid heavily for want of experience,
it is only fair to state that lack Of
ability in conducting operations was
responsible if their losses were In

troops were hurried to their aid from
