Hundreds of Plucky Mutilated
Men Seeking New Field of
Work to Make Livelihood.
(By George Buchanan Fife).

Toc-toc-toc-.
The one new sound in the streets OF
Paris.
The rumble of heavy wheels, the
rifle crock of whips, the puir OF rub
Der tires, the warning OF the motor
horn, the toy tinkle of the hacre
horses bell, the scuffle Of footsteps,
all these m the old sounds. It's only
the to-toc-toc-that's new.
One hears it everywhere toc-toc
toe the dull, unmistakable sound of
the soldiers wooden leg, the Flooding
on march of the thousands who have
dropped, still living, through the red
fingers of war.
For this conflict of high explosives
sends so pitiably many men back into
the world with missing legs and arms,
yet, singularly enough. with calm,
pathetica!ly smiling face, and always
gratitude of France for their sacri-
flee.
Hundreds of them come into Paris
from the great base hospitals, seek
ing in some new work, the livelihood
they must make. Many, particularly
the legless ones who have been farm
ers or field laborers, believe that their
usefulness as such is at an end and
that the workshop alone is left ia
them. Therefore they seek out the
larger cities-Paris, by preference
for employment which will provide a
chair or bench in a workshop where a
new trade may be learned and life be
begun all I've again.
It is to those unfortunates, these
"grands blesses," now no longer of
moment in the bitter struggle at the
front and wen sent back by their Ger
man captors as useless and burden
some, that the American Red Cross
has devoted one of the most important
of its many services-that Of provid-
ing these MANNED soldiers with the
best type of artificial leg that Amer
lean ingenuity of design can produce.
And already more than six hundred
mutilated Frenchmen have been
equipped. But, more, ever than that,
the American Red Cross has now
established at Saint Maurice, near
Paris, a factory where American ar
tifcial legs are manufactured and sup
piled to the French government fol
issue to the mutiles of the army. The
present equipment of the plant is fo1
the completion of fifty legs a month,
but the output is to be increased as
rapidly as possible.
This work has been undertaken fo1
two fundamental and equally import
ant reasons. ...
The first is scientific. It has beer
found that if a long period efapses
between the amputation of a leg ant
the employment of a proper, weight

PICTURE IS
COMING TO 0RPHEUM
Herbert BrcnOn's "LOne Wolf"
at Orpheum, Sunday,
March 31st.

With an extraordinary cast of not
ed players, headed by Hazel Dawn
and Bert Lytell, Herbert Brenon's
widely heralded Selznick- Pictures
version of Louis Joseph Vance's
novel, "The Lone Wolf" comes to the
Orpheum theatre on Sunday, March
31st. In addition to Miss Dawn, who
is known to every theatre goer and
picture patron in the country, and
Mr.. Lytell, who has been featured in
numerous stage successes. MI. BrenOn
has engaged for this remarkable
photo-melodrama such other players
Of stellar capacity as Alfred Hickman,
Edward Abeles, William E. Shay,
Stephen Grattan, William Riley,
Hatch, Florence Ashbrooke, Juliet
Brenon, Joseph Chailles, Ben Graham,
Robert Fischer and Master Cornish
Beck.
"The Lone Wolf" is Mr.. Brenon's
first contribution of melodramtic
character to the Selznick output, and
is in decided contrast to his two most
recent productions, "War Brides" and
"Ihe Eternal SIM" "The Lone Wolf"
story was one of the most successful
among Mr.. Vance's most stirring
novels of adventure and holds every
element that goes to make a feature
picture of universal interest. The plot
is ingenious and moves with a rapidity
and wealth of dramatic surprises that
are certain to keep the spectators
keyed to the highest pitch OF excite
ment.
The theme oncerns the adventures
of a master craftsman known to the
police as the Lone Wolf, and a charm
ing and clever member of the secret
service. In the course of the story
such thrilling episodes as a running
battle through the streets of Paris,
the burning of a large building and a
combat in the air between aeroplanes,
are shown on the screen.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, Jan. l7. A break ol S5 to $6 bale on cotton greeted the holiday order from the government when the markets opened today. All other factors faded before this new de vciopment. In tn first ha}I hour of business prices fell go to r point; on the most active months under heavy liquidation selling for short account, inspired by the belief that the closing of mills would greatly cultail con sumption,
 Early short sellers took their prof it's and new buying for long account came in at the decline and checked it. The market was also helped by reports of a better demand for the lower grades of spotc. At the highest in the trading up to noon prlccc were carried to within 28 to Az points oi yesterdays close.
 Rapid price changes occurred in the afternoon. At 1 o'clock the act i've months were at net loss of 5t to 59 points.
 The cotton market closed steady ai a net decline of 67 to S7 points. The range:

New York Cotton.

New York, Jan. l7.-As d result of ' the action of the fuel administrator cotton had violent and semi-demor~ alized opening today with first prices from 53 to l57 points lower. March contracts on the call were even larger selling at 29 cents, or a drop of 20Z points, exceeding 5I0 per bale. Jan uary sold at 30 cents, a break of 137 points. Late positions opened from 53 to 85 points lower.
 The excessive weakness in near po- sitions was due to the expeciation of a large number of stop orders which were not present in tho later months 1t was feared the holidays period would have drastic effect upon cot ton consumption by the New England bills, as this acted as one of the weak cnng factors.
 i Almost as rapidly as it broke the market had a later rally which car ricd prices from 35 to l50 points above the lowest level with March to 30.15 and at the end of the first half hour ! the market was only y 50 points under the previous night. There was heavy covering by some big shorts, together with New Orleans and Southern buy ing big demand from the trade and Liverpool. Southern advices indicated that holders of spots were not affected by the temporary break in futures. 1 January contracts sold down to 30 cents and March to 29 cents on the first call. It was feared that the holiday orders would mean a heavy decline in consumption by the New England mills. The early break in cotton was quickly followed by a vigorous rally which carried March contracts from go cents to 30.4O cents recovering the initial loss.
 Officers of the, cotton exchange said that closing the exchange under the fuel administrators order would not be considered unless Governor Whit man should declare a legal holiday on each Monday.
 Late forenoon wires from the South said Southern mills influenced by the firmness of holders, had been large buyers of contracts on the early break. This, with continued trade buying from other quarters, kept the market very steady around midday, at which time prices were 37 to 43 points net lower, with March selling at 30.59; May 30.22 and July 29.93. Much of the excitement attending the opening of the market had disappeared and it seemed to become more settled with a disposition to take a calmer view of the fuel situation.
 Increasing pressure in the early af- ternoon from Wall street and local sources caused the market to sell off about from the top, with March trad ing at 3O.30 and May 29.96. A steady demand from trade interests however, absorbed the offerings fairly we'll and prevented any return of the demoral- zation which was noted in. the first hour.
 Cotton closed barely steady. The

Chicago Grain.
 Chicago, Jan. l7.- Government coal saving orders tended slightly today to ease down the corn market. It wa contcndcd by some traders that the effect of such orders would relieve traffic congestions and therefore would help indirectly to facilitate the movement of corn to market. Selling based on this opinion however was of a dccidely caution sort. Opening prices, which ranged from unchanged figures to 3-S cent lower with January $1.27 l2 and May SPA 1-8 to Ia were followed bv little reaction in Sorlc cases.
 Values hardened later on account cf uncertainty as to whether elevators and dryers would be permitted to con tinuc in operation despite restrictive rules as to coal. The close was steady at the same as yesterdays finish to Is cent higher, with January $l.27 5-S and May SPA 1-2.
