STORIES OF THE WAR
stiIi conquerina The World.

Correspondence of The Associated Press):
 Despite their four years of fighting, some of the German prisoners of war still are obsessed by the German idea of eonquering the world. That un- aduiterated Prussianism still exists in the German ranks is the conclusion of one British officer who has inter viewed a number of the German pris- oners. One of them he describes as 'an intelligent university man" The British officer quotes their conversation as follows:
 T do not wish to insult you" said the German "but you English are we'll intended fools. We who govern Ger many are not like you. We govern
 the fools; the fools govern you" Your principles are sweeping" re- piled the Briton. 'To come down to practice what have you to say about the guilt of beginning the war;" "Guilt?' demanded the German fit was a glory. I claim it for Germany" ;" That is hardly your official view
 "The official view is for the fools.''
 But you believe in the Rrussian purpose behind all this,'' asked the British officer.
 T do, as in nothing else" replied l ROt3C is God. There is no other. Prussia I will rend the veil of the temple, but she will destroy to create. Against Pruss- ian might the world as it exists today will fall in ruins, but Prussia will build l g better and more yirile world in it's l place. Strength only will survive The life of man is naturally fight The strongest in force and cunning l will live"
 | 1t will be going back to the Flood, 1 said the Briton.

 "The old virtue was wemanish," said l the prisoner. The new virtue ii strength
 "In that blessed guture will wal reign triumphant?

SOUTH DAKOTA MINES.


 The production of gold in the Black Hills district, s. Dak., for the first six months of 1918 shows small decrease as compared with that for the same period in 1917. The Homestead mines and mills. which produce most of the output, have been operated steadily according to Charles ". Henderson United States Geological Survey, De partmen of the Interior. Of the other important properties the Golden re- ward mines and cyanidation mill are the latest to cease operations, owing to advances in cost and lew-g grade ores. The Wasp No : mill has beer dssmantled; the New Reliance and Bismarck mills remain idle; the Mo. gull mill has continued operations or custom ore; and the Trojan mill ant mines have been active. Small ship ments of lead silver ore have beer made from Galena, and small shin ments of copper ore from the Hill Cit, district.

with German helmets addressed to rela-
tives and friends in the United States.
Officers and men. members of the Y. NJ.
C. A. and Red Cross and, in fact, every
one appears to be sending helmets.
These trophies are found along roads,
in forests and in fields, everywhere the
Germans retreated. Helmets with large
bullet holes particularly are in demand.
Most of the helmets are inclosed in -four
sacking and pieces of gunnysack. Others
are not wrapped. the address being

Some addresses read, From the

In addition, the addresses have the ini-
