Huge Crowd Hears
Fir. Wickham Speak

The interest in the Mission services
being conducted by the New York
Apostolate Fathers at the Blessed
Sacrament church on Union avenue
is continuing undated; 800 women are
attending the morning and evening
devotions.
AT the services last evening Father
Wicl1ham spoke on the subject of
Divorce" having been inspired by a
recent cable message to the New York
Sun from London, quoting the views
of the well known writer, Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle, in which the British
novelist says: Divorce is not evil.
How can laws laid down by the
church of early Christianity be ap-
piled to people living 1000 years af-
ter?'
Replying to this statement, Father
TWickham said in part:
Arthur Conan Doyle can write
good detective stories, as any reader
of the Adventures of Sherlock
Holmes can testify. But somehow
we believe that the maker of fiction
might be utilizing his time to better
advantage in weaving new plots for
his detachable Holmes than in at
tempting to improve on the standards
of Jesus Christ in matters of doc
! trine.''

ESCAPES FROM HUN
Former New York Newsie
Captures German in a
Shell Hole After Fight.

With the American Army in
Picardy, Thursday, June. 6-(By the
Associated Press)-There were many
instances of individual bravery and
heroism in the successful attack of
the American marines in the Chateau
Thierry sector today. Many of the
Americans who were wounded refus
ed to leave the fight on that account.
Sergt j. L. Ellsworth of Kansas
City was captured by the Germans
on Monday night while dazed from a
blow on the head from a rifle butt.
A German was dragging him away
when he regained consciousness. The
sergeant hit the German on the jaw
and escaped.
ST was not going to be the first
American captured on this sector"
Sergt. Ellsworth said. ''The Dutch
man looked more scared than I, so I
biffed him. Now I got to get back
and get me Dutchman to make up
for the lump on my head"
The sergeant took part in the
fighting today.
Private Charles Ginsberg, a former
New York newsboy but now of Wash
ington, Ca, captured German in
shell hole. Ginsberg searched the
German for hidden weapons and
when he came upon photographs of
the prisoners two children the Ger
man wanted to fight.
The prisoner was allowed to keep
the photographs.
An American corporal found him
! calf hahind the German lines two
days ago. By keeping himself hid
den and crawling a foot at time he
/ reached the American during the
! height of today's battle and in time
! to take part in the victory.

The throat is still little sore. l dlo
not get enough, luckily, to make me
go to a hospital or even see a doc
tor. But 1 am glad I only had one
small whiff instead of a couple of
big ones.
"But the whole business is full to
the brim with excitement bred by I'M
certainty, and quite the most inter
esting thing in the world. I would
not have missed a single one of the
dollars. Any front, think, is prob
ably the most cheerful place on
earth, although nobody would ever
think so. The further you get away
from the lines the more gloom there
is. But where shells fly and life is
worth about a nickel nothing matters
to anybody. A laugh and smile is
the thing. I suppose this is because
the average American soldier goes in
to battle or into the front firmly con-
WINGED that he'll only get a wound if
the luck is right, and at the same
time determined to forget all about
it and enjoy life. I have heard more
funny stories and more laughter
among our men in the line in one
night than I have heard in all the
rest of the time that I have been in
| Europe.
"And they are great crowd, these
fighters of ours; whether they dc
their f!Thting on the ground or in the
air. They are game. to the core,
cheerful, happy and have one thought
only. That is: Kill Germans And
thew never overlook a chance, You
can't beat an army that sails into ar
enemy with a grin on it's face and E
| cb0c&1e in it's heart"

Train Ride Less
Enjoyable Monday

Ticket agents at the railroad sta
ton have been overwhelmed by in
quiries from anxious travellers as to
the raise in prise soon to take place.
The only information in regard to the
change in rate is that on Monday
morning the price on al tickets WI
be increased to cents mile with
war tax addition of per cent. Any
tickets bought before that time VIII
be void on and after that day.
Mileage books will not be good af-
ter Monday, according to the 1nfor-
nation given out, but, the railroad
viii refund the money on them. This
presumably means that commuters
will have to pay the same price that
sother. passengers ara taxed.

New Haven, June Z - For
Bridgeport and vicinity: Fair to-
night and Saturday; cooler to-
night.
The trough of low pressure
which was central over the upper
Mississippi valley yesterday

now extends from eastern Penn
sylvania nOrtheastward to the
lower st. Lawrence valley. 1t is
causing cloudy and rainy weather
in the eastern part of the Lake
region and New England. An ex-
tended area of high pressure CEN

moderately low temperatures in
the northern districts. Showers
have occurred during the last "a
hours in nearly all other districts
east of the Rocky mountains.
The temperature continues some
what above normal on the north
Atlantic coast.
Conditions favor for tins vi

quite exciting for correspondents, he
writes. when I was there 1 was
living in town so close to the lines
that six inch shells came in an US.
A number of shrapnel broke right
over my house, breaking off the brick
like shingles.

that whistle of a shell coming your
way, hear it break almost over head
and then hear the whistle that shrap-
mel makes as it shoots downward. The
incessant racket kept up day and
night.
Nights it was worse; absolutely
preventing sleep. There were the
rumble and roar of French and Ger
man guns nearer the line, the crash
of a French heavy about a block
away, the whistle of shell going out
and coming in, and the c-rr-rr-ump
of Boche H. E. shells exploding.
When wou finally drop off to sleep
about in the morning the racket
is not so great, but you never know
whether you will wake up in the bed

hear will be the voice of st. Peter

boots before entering.
