Couldn't do my work only what had to be done. l had a physician and he gave me medicine, tho it didn't do me any good, and he advised an operation.

"GREAT CONFUSION"
Asserts German Writer Regarding Americans i'll Big Battle
 Last Week.

Amsterdam, Oct. 1.-The Berlin Taseblatt's correspondent, Hegeler, writing from Montmedy, Oct. 1, des- cribes the attack made by the Am ericans in the Argonne forest during a dense fog, in which American small, fast tanks. like phantoms. suddenly coming out of the depths, took part and fell upon the Germans in the rear
 ''The results.' says the correspon- dent, naturally was wild confusion.
 'They got right into our artillery positions.
 "Before the fog lifted, and that was late in the forenoon, we had some anxious hours.
 Contact between the regiments and with the higher command was broken, except for carrier pigeons and runners, as all wires were down and heligraphing was impossible.
 About midday the weather clear ed. We found a break through had failed, but the enemy held the line of DannevouX-Mon

rid of the bed sores and chilled feet. Each day for a while one quart of fluid had to be injected into his back to keep life in the soldier.
 The hardest blow to the American soldier is when he is told he must re- turn to the States before the game is over.
 Congressman Caraway spoke of the stories by the wounded soldiers as sacred stories and well they might be such.
 That when the mothers were wor- rying about the provisions and treat ment of their soldiers that it was paganda they had heard. "The American soldiers were well clothed and cared for. He said that at the battle of ChateauThierry the Amer jeans were expected to stand only a while.
 The first extra over Paris said the American army was holding the German army.
 The second extra said that the German army was Wavering and the third extra said that the Americans had advanced two miles.
 France calls America the saver of her country.
 Why, said Congressman Caraway any American private could have bor- rowed more money~from any bank in Paris than a rich man could on his promisory note in ,Jeerson county.

Two Boys With Bandages and Arms In Slings at

MONSTER CROWD AT
 LIBERTY LOAN RALLY
Senator Caraway Also Stirs Pine Bluff Citizens With
 Descriptions.
(By ISCOLA CARRINGTON.)

A patriotic Liberty Loan meeting was held last evening at the Taber- nacle in interst of the Fourth Liberty loan. Congressman Caraway of Arkansas graphically described the battle of Chateau-Thierry.
 Two wounded American soldiers were among the speakers.
 W. J. B. Cox opened the meeting With prayer for the soldiers over here and over there. In his introductory speech, Judge Sorrells said "We will never agree to peace with Germany but we will dictate peace to Germany. He said that not only German offic- ials but the German soldier was the biggest coward and earth, and would beg for mercy from the American soldier, and them shoot him through the back if he had a chance.
 Private Greer, who enlisted in the fall of 1917, was introdc~ed.
 He had been member of motor truck company. He told of how the ten inch shells bursted about his truck and threw him in the air, fell on his spine and shoulders. He display ed to the audience the plaster paris bodice which he was wearing and would have to wear for four months as the result of that shell. He was in France when the Third Liberty loan was launched and told how glad the American soldiers were at the success of the drive.
 Private Stanbrook was introduced and came forward with his arm in a sling. He said that he enlisted as soon as war was declared and was in France within two months.
 Before we reached shore we could hear the loud shouts of the French people, 'All Hail America, and hur- rah for the Americans"
 After landing they had two months training and then were sent to the front. Twenty days and they were sent to rest billets, but said the wounded soldier, there was no rest there for work was our middle name'' and we often slept only two hours at night.
 But the "Sammies" in France meyer forget the Christmas spirit for when Christmas came they got paid off for once and they celebrated.
 This is what they did: Collected two thousand francs and with the money bought warm clothing and toys and had Christmas tree for the French children who were actual ly suffering.
 "The hospital in which was taken was bombed.
 He said that when the Germans get a nurse or a doctor, that is equiv alent to a thousand men. Each time a she'll bursted the wounded soldiers would be given an awful jolt to add to their miseries.
 He said that he had to undergo six operations and that it took him a week to learn to walk again when af- ter s;x weeks from bed he had gotten

 Washington. Oct An admiralty board headed by Sir Erie Geddes, first lord of the British Admiralty. arrived in Washington today as the guest of he navy department. The party came in response 10 an invita- tion extended by Secretary Daniels, and i'll part to return the visit to England of Assistant Secretary Roose- vel. of the Navy Department
 For the last IS months We on our side have had the opportunity of seeing your navy al work and 1 am voicin2 the opinion not only oi the Royal navy and the British nation. but of the whole of the allies. when l say that your sailors, no less than yeur gallant troops, have won our deepest admiration.' Sir Eric said to the newspaper correspondents to- night.

 brought about that complete unity of spirit and purpose between the two great navies to which the present visit of the board of admiralty bears testimony.
 "The dautless determination which the United States has displayed in creating a huge trained body of sea men out of landsmen is one of the most striking accomplishments of the war.
 :: Had ii not been effectively done, one would have thought it impos- SiDle.'
 The fact that the admiralty vessel which brought the party to the Uni ted States flew the admiralty flag may have significance. Never be- fore has this ensign been flown out of British home waters It meant that a board of the admiralty. vest ed With full power to make decisions fo' the admiralty which need not be referred for confirmation, was on the ship.
 Admiral Benson, chief of opera ticns. met the visitors when they larded and escorted them to Wash ington where they were received with full naval honors.
 The day was devoted to an inter- change of greetings, Sir Erie lunch ing with President Wilson al the White House, and tomorrow confer eEces will begin on all matters in- vclving the joint effort of the allies anI the United States to crush Ger man naval power and also to make safe the seas for troop transports.
 The exact nature of the subjects to be taken up has not been disclos- ed.
 About A hours out a young Am erican alighted on the radio aerials of the ship.

Varied Bill at the
Palace This Week

The bill at the Palace this week is
more varied in interest than usual.
Lillian Russell's return to the stage
and the American debut of Mile. Nitta
10 are the features. 1t would be pleas
ant to say that time has not succeeded
in thickening Lillian's waist nor thin
ming her voice-if time were not re-
morseless in such matters. But it is
not as famous beauty that she re-
turns to the stage. 1t is as Recruiting
Sergeant Lillian Russell, of the United
States Marines, that she. comes back to
fill purse depleted by war charities.
The first part Of her programme is
made up of airs from past comic operas
airs that sound strangely unsubstan-
tial beside the barbaric rhythms of our
present-day popular songs. The second
part is made up of several new songs
Mile. Nitta 10, La Gigolette Parisi.
enne, is a French character singer who
has attained a great deal of popularity
in Paris. She has personality, a voice
and a fair degree of art.
Harry Watson, jr., presented by Jack
Norworth, is very funny in two scenes
as commuter at telephone and as a
superannuated prizefighter. Frisco, the
dancer, remains for second week.

"Glorianna," New Musical
Piece, at the Liberty

Have the echoes of the lately de-
parted Going Up" fingered within the
walls of the Liberty Theatre to creep
into the score of "Glorianna," the play
with music. which John Cort pre-
sented last night with Eleanor Painter
in the leading role? After attending the
tenth musical piece of the season one
is likely to find a bit Of Kern in Hirsch
or bit of Hirsch in Frimi, or vice
versa. Do they all drink at the same
source, or have they gentleman
agreement to borrow from one another? :?
At any rate, what fault is to be found
with "Glorianna" is not on the score
of the music which Rudolf Friml has
composed. That does its best to be
what it should be, regardless of its in
s,piratlon, and it does often succeed in
toelng ingratiating and lifting. 1t is
,ne heavy, fiat footed weight Of the
pook, by Catherine Chisholm Gushing,

"BIanchette" Is Seen
r or First Time Here

"Banchette," play in three acts. by
time here at the Theatre du Vieux
Colombier last evening. 1t had been
announced that this performance was
the first in the United States.
In January, 1915, "Blanchette' was
given at the opening of d two weeks
season at the Toy Theatre, Boston.
Nine. Rosa Meurville played the title
role and Claude Benedict was seen as
Rousset. The preliminary performance
in New York by the same company was
probably the plays introduction to the
American public.
Having drawn the lamentable picture
Of a young woman whose excursions
into scientific farming only result in
the ruin Of her peasant fathers crops,
treated according to her instructions,
the playwright, in the original version,
provided tragic ending for the Of
Tending product Of the higher educa-
ton. A later and conventional ending,
afterward substituted by the author,
was used last evening.
The merits of the play lie in the first
two acts. Seldom has the soul of the
barred. The Roussets are real people.
SO are old Morilon and his son, and
the aged cantonnier, withered and SEN
lie. The acting, uniformly satisfac-
tory, did not surpass in individual i'm
personations the calibre Of an efficient
and versatile stock company.
Next week the play will be Donnay's
"Georgette Lemcunier."
