French Hero of the Clouds Here
To Startle New York by Stunts
Soulier, an Ace, Who
Has Downed Fifteen Boche
Planes, Will Circle Sky

AN ATLANTIC PORT, March g.
Sous-Lieutenant Constant Soulier, at
twenty one of the famous French
aces, with a record of fifteen Boche
planes to his credit, reached this coun-
try on a French liner which locked
here to-day.
Soulier is mere lad, shy and retir-
ing in manner, but during the three
years he has been battling the Ger
mans in the clouds he has received al
most every emblem for bravery in &C
ton presented by the French military
authorities.
Soulier walked with q cane, favoring
a right heel, shattered by German
explosive bullet in one of his latest air
engagements. Only his wound. his dec
orations and his blue uniform revealed
the amazing story he would have liked
to conceal.
Soulier finally consented to tell of
some of his experiences, in which De
brought down seven planes Of enemy
fliers behind the French lines, five be-
hind the German lines and three in No
Mans Land.

ground when a German plane rose
over the lines. l jumped in my ma
chine and went up to see what he was
doing.
Picture Of Battle in Clouds
"I had gone up some distance when
suddenly eight other fast Gothas APP
reared from behind the German lines
and came straight at me. I saw there
was nothing to do but fight. I was the
centre of the machine guns of the nine
planes which were circling about me.

could, and had the satisfaction to see
two of the planes tumble to the
ground, one of them in flames.
"My machine by this time was rid

ceived wound in the right foot. SO
when my machine-gun~ jammed, l
thought it was all up with me. De-
fenseless, the only thing left for me
was to try to get back to earth in
safety. The other seven enemy planes
were still firing, but l managed to get
away from them by making spiral
dive, and landed back of the French
lines"
In Seven Battles in Day.
French military records show that
on October Is, 1916, Soulier engaged
in seven battles. He brought one of
the German aviators to the woods of
Saint Pierre WAIST, and forced another
one to land. Two of the Boche flyers
were killed, and Soulier FOR his bravery
received a citation for the order of
the army,
A few months later, with his propel-
lor broken in a battle, he fell from 4
height of 5000 yards, managing to land
within the French lines. At another
time, he brought down a moroplane in
the morning, and biplane in the

collecting for the German war suffer-
ers and to devote their efforts to get
ting money for the American Red
Cross. He received no subscriptions
for that purpose, he said.
Earlier in the day witnesses testi
fed that there was working agree
ment between the alliance and the Ma
tional Association of Commerce and
Labor to fight prohibition. Percy An
dreae, of Chicago, president of the as
ISOLATION at the time of it's organiza

Hexamer, of Philadelphia, then presi
dent of the alliance, to have Joseph
Leller, of Indianapolis, then vice-presi
dent, take charge of the disbursement
of funds among German organizations
to fight prohibition.
Karl A. M. Scnolz, Of Baltimore, at
torney for the alliance. told the sub
committee the alliance would admit all
the state organizations, but whether
that was in violation of its rights
would be dependent on an interpre-
tation of the charter.
The name of a man who was de-
scribed as "prominent citizen of
the District Of Columbia" who served
as chairman of the lobby committee
OF the National Association OF Com
merce and Labor in Washington and
who worked against the passage of
the Hobson amendment, was sup
pressed by the committee. Chairman
King saying he did not believe it nee
essary to bring the mans name into
the hearing
Records of the National Association
of Commerce and Labor which were
said to have recently been before Fed
eral grand jury at Pittsburgh, were
used at to-day's hearing. They dis
closed that brewers contributed up
ward Of 100000 to the association to
fight prohibition. That money was
turned over to Tjarks. Andrea ex-
planned that of the total amount col
lected by .he association only approx
mately $4,000 was turned over to the
alliance, the remainder of The fund
having been used in anti-prohibition
work in other channels.

Sham w. S. S. Pledges.

Perhaps those persons who neglect
to redeem the pledges they made in
the w. S. S. campaign last June i'm
agine that the American soldiers leave
their native shore and go overseas to
take part in a sham battle; at any
rate, sham war loan pledges at home
can not be counted or to finance a
real battle. Those persons who,
through forgetfulness or neglect, have
not purchased the War Savings
Stamps which they pledged them
selves to buy are evidently persons
who do not. notice the daily casualty
lists of the heroic dead who pledge
their lives for America-and/w who
kept their pledges.
The sales reports of w. S. S. show
that in most of the counties the w.
S. S. pledges are being faithfully TAX
en- care of; but the sales reports also
show that not a few persons are
failing to buy the stamps in accord
ance with the pledges made during
the June campaign.
There is no law to enforce the
pledges made in June" states the
| South Carolina Wal Savings commit
tee, "but he is a poor American
whose conscience and whose sense
of patriotic duty are not sufficient
law"
Don't let your pledge be a "sham
pledge"

CHARLESTON BOMBARDED.
German Paper Says Coast Cities Arc
TerrOrized.

"Bombardment' of Wilmington,
N. c., and Charleston, S. c., by Ger
man submarines and the terror Of
other Atlantic coast cities, whose Off
Gals have "implored" the American
government to protect them against
a like fate is related as veracious
news for German readers in a recent
issue of the Cologne Gazette, which
has been received here. The news
papers's publication of August IL,
which offers a striking example of
the sort of propaganda fed the Ger
man public, adroitly attributes the
story of the American coastal raid to
Paris papers. The article, illustrated
with a map of the Atlantic shore,
line declares that several U-boats par
ticipated in the Smelling of the two
cities. There follows an account of
the supposed panic elsewhere along
the coast with a gloating assurance
that assignment of American war
ships to safeguard large Atlantic
cities will draw vessels from the
United States naval forces in Euro
pean waters. The Cologne Gazette
says:
"On August Is the American ports
of Wilmington, N. c., and Charles
ton, S. c., were bombarded by>several
German U-boats. Wilmington is in
the State of North Carolina.
Boston, Providence, New York,
Philadelphia, Baltimore and even
from the sea through Chesapeake
bay; also Hampton roads, with
Fortress, Monroe; Savannah and
Jacksonville are within the range OF
submarine guns and all these cities
are imploring the government to sta
ton for their protection warships at
the entrance to their harbors. In
order to avert a panic of the easily
excitable population, the government
will not be able to do otherwise than
comply with their requests. Ships
which are tied down on the American
coast, however, cannot be used fol-

How Tornado Originates.

The tornado of the Western plains Is
identical. in formation with the sand
whirl. The sun beats fiercely on linn
tied area-say ten square miles of bar
rem prairie-and as result the air next
the earth becomes very hot, perhaps
100 degrees, and the mass is constant
ly increasing in volume. Above the
warm air is stratum perhaps 20 de-
grees colder.
BY and by passageway is made,
the hot air begins to ascend and the
cold upper air, pressing downward,
forces the lighter air through chan
mel thus formed. 1t begins to whirl, it
increases in velocity, surface cur
rent forces it along, and the tornado
starts on its destructive journey.
The terrific cyclone originates in
much the same way, only differing in
extent. The most violent cyclones or
iginate in tropical ATTITUDES, in the At
lantic ocean, TO the north and east of
West Indian islands and in the Pacific,
in the China sea and in the neighbor-
hood of the Philippine Islands.
The reason they are so destructive
is because they are carried such great
distances by extraneous influences.
