Melba Will Appear at
Liberty Theater Monday

immense sums of money for re-
lief work.
When IL was realized that no
Tacoma auditorium could hold
the crowds, except at price be-
yond the reach of the public in

Melba and her manager decided
on the Liberty, which makes pos
sible popular price.

planning to go out in large bus
and auto parties, as well as on
the street car, which gives bus
connection with Camp Lewis.

the ocean was rough. We got
within sight of Gnd and found it
to be a high rock coast and i'm
possible for us to land in such
weather. This was about IL
o'clock and 1t was dark as could
be. Our boat was gradually sink
ing and I doubt If we could have
kept afloat many hours longer.
At ~ o'clock we could make out
the light of what we thought was
a steamer, so we signaled to them
with a red light which was in our
boat. They answered us, and at
1880 came alongside and picked
us up. 1t was small trawler,
but was the biggest boat in the
world when she saved us. She
patrolled until $3.50 and then
made for port.

see him. They had several large
machines waiting for us and we
piled in and were taken to ho-
tel, where we we're given a good
breakfast, a bed and a good warm
place to dry out. There were
about 500 of us landed here. 1t
is the most beautiful place in the
world. The fields were green and
everything so clean and nice. The
people are the most wonderful in
all the world. They opened the
whole town to us, and their
hearts as we'll. They gave us
everything we needed, clothing,
caps, socks, handkerchiefs, to-
bacco, and we have about five
good meals a day"

Likes Home cooked Eats

How much things from home
are appreciated by the men In
France Is we'll shown in letter
recently received here by Mrs. M.
Bruener from her grandson, Ed
Laden, who is In the service over
there with the 117th U. 8. engi-
neers:
Dear Grandma:
Now that / am located in
warm place, l will try to write
you a long letter, but first of all
l want to explain why / have not
written before in the past month.
Ever since arriving In France
| have been billeted in different
towns, doing certain kinds OF
work. spent Thanksgiving,
Christmas and New Years in diff
ferent places. To be billeted
means moving into small village
and occupying the place that hap
pens to be vacant. Sometimes we
get large barns and sleep in the
hay loft, and then, Of course, we
have no fires. Then others are
small rooms where we may set up
stove or have a fireplace. Last
month I lived in a barn, but now
l have dandy little room with a
stove.
Living in a barn is not so bad.
We sleep warm, but you know 1t
is hard to write or do anything of
that kind in cold weather. The
snow has gone here now, however,
and it is much warmer out Of
doors. One peculiar think / have
noticed is a heavy fog which hangs
low for days.
81 want to thank you. many
times for the scarf, handkerchiefs,
sox and other things, they were
Just what / needed. l had dandy
Christmas, received many pack
ages and there are four more yet
to come.
Last night ! received your
package containing the fruit cake
and cookies. Grandma, you don't
know how god they were; l re-
member the time when / would
not touch homemade cookies, but,
believe me, they are more than
welcome now. l shared up with
the boys and they all send their
thanks, too. You see we don't
get a great deal of sweet stuff and
such things are worth their weight
in gold.
I'VE are treated fine here, real
ly much better than l expected.
OF course there are times after a
long march when the kitchen can
not be placed in a hurry that
meals are a little slim, but that
cannot be helped and later the
cooks always make up for the loss.
Today we had fried beefsteak,
French fried potatoes country
gravy, coffee and white bread. /
hear that we are going to have
chicken and turkey next Sunday.
81 have been in the best of
health ever since left the States.
At the time | enlisted wore q
number 1-2 medium coat and
now wear a 6 IA stout, SO you
can see that the army life agrees
with me.
81 am glad to hear that you are
well and getting along fine.
Give my regards to everyone
and tell them We will all be back
soon, as / think we have just
about cornered the kaiser.
Love to all, from,

ECl|PSES
BULL FIGHTING IN
SOUTH AMERICA

According to the latest reports
from Venezuela, baseball beats bull
fighting. From the American point
of view there is nothing remark
able in such a statement. We al
ways knew it did. But Pitcher Mu-
tbs of the Borinquen Stars, the Por-
to Rican baseball club that recently
visited Venezuela for a series of
games, says that the sentiment has
taken hold in the South American
republic, where for centuries Ia
corrida de toros" has been the ma
tional sport.
People there still go afternoons
to see the '"toreador" give the dead
ly thrust to his victim, but a great
er number attend the morning base
ball game and their enthusiasm at
the ''juego de p%elota" is more in
tense and continuous.
They howl at the players and at
each other, convincing proof that
the fan has appeared in the South
American republic. AS players, the
natives have not reached Portion
Rican standards; they are rather
weak fielders and batters. But
throw, Ave Maria, how they can
throw.
According to Nuts, Walter John
son and iris Speaker would sit UP
and take notice if they saw the
"Venezolanos" ''tirando la pelota.'
So great is the desire of the peo-
pie of Caracas to learn the Ameri-
can game that Nuts and II OF
two of his companions were per-
suaded to remain after the series
to teach enthusiasts how to play it
1t looks as if the pitchers of the
future may come from Caracas OF
Maracaibo instead of the Texas
league.

AMERICAN HARVESTERS WORKING

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN

bushels of wheat which the German
army intended to send across the
Rhine is being garnered along the
battle front by the harvesting bat

the land wrested from the Teutons
since the middle of July 1900, 900
bushels already have been gathered
and 500, 900 more remain to be cut.
Furthermore, each backward step
by the invaders adds to the wheat
acreage that will feed the fighters
of France this winter.

On Sunday, Oct. 20, about SO

started drilling in the high-school
gymnasium will make a practice
march to Alkali springs, some dis
lance from Goldfield. 1t would be

Goldfield as any reasonable esti-
mate at present would place it.
After storming the plunge at AL

Goldfield.
The shortest road to Alkali is
said to be II miles long. Like all

will not and it is'regarded as high
ly probable that bets on both prop
ositions will be won.
The men are not underestimate

nightly drilling, it is known that
some of them have already been
sneaking off into the hills to try
their legs. Fat men and lean men

larvesters we're hard at work.

harvesters were hard at work.
Around M%ontdidier, where grain
fields were part of the battle-ground,
self-binders were gathering a rich
harvest. Where the big machines
could not reach the grain because
of wire entanglements, shell-holes
and trenches, soldiers armed with
scythes and sickles cut the stalks
and recovered every kernel that
could be saved.
North of the Aisne the advancing
French found acres where the Ger
mans had worked hard to reap the
wheat they had sown, but had found
that time is short. East of the
Avre, near Mpreuil, the poilus found
a threshing machine almost intact,
evidence that the harvesting had
been carried on almost up to the
last minute. All the other farm
implements had been taken away OIL
destroyed.

AMSTERDAM, Oct. z. = Ger
many's famine in cotton, wool and
edible oils and fats is not being al
leviated by the ingenious lust as
good" substitutes which have been
provided since the war, according to
Emil Zimmerman, a well-known
authority on colonial subjects, in an
article in the Berlin Tagliche Rund-
schau.
Nothing" he complains, " has
cut so deeply into our daily life as
the lack of fats and the absence of
raw textile materials. One dove
tails into the other, for no fat
means no soap, no soap means
chemical substitutes, chemical sub
stitutes ruin clothes, and clothes we
cannot replace without wool and
cotton.
Dairy produce has fallen off &C
per cent and animal fat has almost
completely vanished from the coun-
try" Zimmerman writes, uncon-
sciously, perhaps. revealing the
inner truth of Germany's precarious
position when he declares: 1--WE
must have colonies from which we
can draw large quantities of raw
materials at once and not after IS
to 20 years of fighting
The rich territory of central and
west Africa appeals to the German
economic expert as the possible site
of a Teutonic colonial empire that
would overshadow even Emperor
Williams fondest dreams. He
would draw 700, 200 tons of vege-
table oils and fats annuall5 from
Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Dahomey, To-
goland, the Cameroons, the Congo

finn PROVES TO
Be STRANGE CASE
WALKS FROM TONOPAH TO
GOLDFYELD WITHOUT
KNOWING 1T

Cases have been known where
men we're alleged not to know
whether they were on foot or on
horseback, but a still more serious
case appeared in the sheriff's office
this morning in Henry Jusola, a
Finn, who did not know whether he
was in Tonopah or Goldfield, with
a strong leaning in favor of Tono-
pah.
The case of Jusola is a strange
one. AS early as Sunday evening
he was reported in the vicinity of
the Consolidated mill observing the
sunset, and when he appeared this
morning his shoes showed that he
had been in the mill slime pond. He
said he had not eaten for three
days and that he had been ill.
He stated hat he had been work.
ing in the Tonopah mines to two
weeks ago, when he became i'll. He
was without coat or hat and with
his shirt sleeves rolled up and it is
believed he may be insane. He said
he had taken out first citizenship
papers and had registered for the
draft, which brought him to the
court house, as he wanted to OBJ
tain a registration card. After Dep
uty Sheriff p..X had searched the
draft records for some time a chance
imagined he was in Tonopah. He
had walked from Tonopah to Gold
field and spent several nights on
the desert without realizing it.
