SOLDIERS SAVED
BY SANDSTORMER
Having Pulled Through
Pneumonia, Volunteered
to Care for Dix Victims
WAS UNTIRING
IN HIS DEVOTION

CAMP DIX, WrightstOwn, N. j., Oct.
ga big, brawny "SandstOrmer" of
the famous Saith Division, is the un-
named hero in one Of the finest stories
that has come out Of the base hospital
during the epidemic here. The young
soldier was a cOnvalescent from pneu-
monia when his division arrived at Camp
Dix, having recovered from the disease
at the Camp Cody New Mexico) Hos
pital. A few days before the epidemic
developed here he was restored to his
company once more in normal health.
When pneumonia followed close in the
wake Of the first wave of influenza, and
stories reached the barracks Of how the
nurses and orderlies at the base hos
pital, working day and night, were near
exhaustion, the "Sandstormer' went to
the captain Of his company and asked
to be detailed TO duty in the pneumonia
wards.
"Sir, I've had the pneumonia and
pulled through" said the soldier. "Hav-
ing had the experience, can anticipate
and appreciate the needs of these boys
who are sick, probably, even better than
the nurses"
The captain presented the soldiers
unique plea TO the base hospital authori-
ties, and Immediately he was summoned
to his self-imposed duty. For more
than a fortnight, and until the epidemic
had passed its crest, and the shortage
Of nurses had been relieved, he remain
ed on duty. Doctors praised his work as
invaluable. As gentle as a woman in
ministerlng to the sick boys, he seemed
able, as he predicted, to anticipate their
wants, while his strength enabled him
to paoify many a delirious patient, and
several convalescent soldiers owe their
lives largely to his care.
The hospital is rapidly clearing of in
fluenza patients. There were only three
new cases reported yesterday, and nine
new cases Of pneumonia. Lieutenant
Harold Wolf, Of Kansas City, a veteri-
nary surgeon at the Remount Station,
died yesterday.
The army campaign against waste
once more has set a new example in

antine with very few exceptions was
faithfully lived up to, the people real
izing that although drastic, it was a
necessity to safeguard the citizens OF
the State.
DR.. Ellegood stated that the lifting
OF the quarantine was contingent on
conditions continuing to improve and
that if the disease should start TO
spread again they win at once put the
quarantine on again. It will also be
insisted on that all places that have
been closed be thoroughly cleaned and
then inspected and fumigated under di-
rections of the health executive officers
before they can be reopened
1t was after o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon, when the city board held its
meeting. There were present DR.. r. E.
Ellegood, president, and DR.. Michael
Ostro and Henry NJ Grier members of
the board; Mayor John W. Lawson, Dr.
A. E. Frantz, secretary Of the State
Board OF Health, and State Health Com
missioner C. II. Wells.
Doctor Frantz said in one or two in
stances the State quarantine may be
continued in towns but under direc-
tion Of the town health officials, which
they have ample authority to do.
Commissioner Wells, after the board
had taken the action lifting the quar-
antine, remarked that he was very
agreeably surprised at the close CO.
operation that every one had appar-
emily given the health authorities and
the few complaints that were made
over the quarantine.
Doctor Ellegood spoke OF the coop
Grafton given by the board and the few
complaints. He said those who did
complain were persons who did not
understand how serious the situation
really was. In this connection ne
spoke OF a hotelkeeper who, when the
quarantine was first established, came
to him and complained. He explained
to the man just what the situation was,
and after hearing this the hotelkeeper
told him he had is beds in his place.
and that II they were needed and
would do any good the health authori-
ties could have them all.

FINE KREST00L

Words few thick and fast in Munich
pal Court this morning when Alexander
kreshtool was given a hearing on a
charge Of assault and battery on his
wife, Pearl Kreshtool. Too much moth
er-in-law and sister-in-law, was the
basis Of the defendants plea before
the court, but, as that was no excuse
for beating his wife, Alexander was
fined S25 and costs.
The Kreshtools live at No 20i Mary
land avenue, and with them live Mrs
Kreshtools mother and sister. Kresh.

Yesterday some trouble arose in the
family and ended by Mrs. Kreshtool,
with her mother and sister, swearing
out a warrant for her husband on a
charge OF assault and battery.
Just a short time later, Kreshtool
appeared at the police station and
stated his purpose OF swearing out a
warrant for his wife's arrest. But his
purpose was not carried out for he
was clamped into a cell until this
morning, when he was given a hearing
in court.
Mrs. Kreshtool told the court that
her husband yesterday started to raise
a rumpus and then beat her. Words

economy for the civil population of the
country in records established here by
the Bureau of Conservation Of Reclama-
tion of the Quartermaster Corps, in the
matter Of garbage disposal. When the
cantonments were first opened the gar
bage was considered a liability. The
new bureau changed all this, and
through an improved system of sorting
the garbage at the mess-hall kitchens
and Of collection, was able to sell the
camps output Of garbage to a reduction
company at a fair profit.
Captain E. V. Champlin, chief of the
new bureau, was not satisfied, however.
and further improvements in the meth
ods of separating the garbage were
adopted These have been in effect for
two months, in which time the garbage
output, as shown by records yesterday.
has been increased approximately 300
per cent. in selling value. Not only has
this new system increased the cash in
come to the government but it has sal
vaged a large percentage Of the garbage,
heretofore discarded, for use in the
manufacture Of munition materials and
other war necessities of Uncle Sam.
The voluntary induction into the SER
vice of any man registered prior to Sep
tember ~, who is qualified for general
military service, is prohibited under a
new order issued here from the adju-
tant general. Many men under draft
age, tired of waiting for their call TO

N. E. A. Special to The Evening Journal
LONDON, oct. 25-TerrOrism anC
bloodshed in Russia are increasing at a
terrible rate and spreading to new
quarters almost daily, as the BOlsheviB
leaders grow more and moro furious
over their waning power.
Restraint after restraint is thrown of
by the pro-Germans and kaiser agents
as vast Russia struggles to shake her
self free.
This much has been culled out as fact
from official and other reliable sources
and in the mass OF reports and ru-
mors that pour into London, are hor-
rible details Of the reign Of terror.
It is officially known that the Boil
sheyik and German forces are now
openly working together, largely under
German command.
Germans are conducting the German
Bolshevik operations against the Czechs
in the region Of VOlsk and KaZan; con-
siderable numbers Of German troops are
concentrating in the Kharkoff region to
operate against the Nolga region.
On the day this is written a report
has just been received that 2OOO pris-
oners have been massacred in Petro-
grad alone and that parts Of tina tcity
are in ruin.
A circumstantial story OF the report
ed murder Of the former czarina and her
four daughters has now been received
in some detail Documents trickling in
from various sources daily add to the
evidence that this murder Of the royal
family is a fact.
The story as II reaches London leaves
open the possibility that the slaughter
may never be definitely proved and may
finally resolve itself into another Aus
tria archduke" case with the members
of the former royal family appearing
periodically in every corner OF the
world"
According to the circumstantial details
received, the local soviet at Ekarterin-
burg is responsible for the killing Of
the ex-czarlna and her daughters.
In the case Of the car, the local So
Wet IS reported TO have receoiYed au-
thorlty from the central BOlshevik gov
ernment TO do what you like with
him" And they executed him.
However, the local soviet asked no
authority for killing the rest OF the
family. The story says the soviet took
the czarina and her daughters one night
70 a lonely house Of Ekarterinburg and
set fire to the house.
Tile reports are silent as TO whether
the women were killed before the house
was fred o. whether they were burned
alive.
But the reports include statements OF
certain persons established as more or
less reliable, that they had seen the
,harred remains which were identified,
among other ways, by crown jewels.
It is now taken as fact in London
hat the car was executed and every
Law adds to the belief Of officials that
MS family was murdered.
The fate Of the czarevitch and his
are absolute mystery. He
nay also become another Austrian
,rchuduke" case. OF all phases Of
he present reign Of terror the recent
government advices are least enlight-
ming as to what has become Of the
,zareyltch.
