There was very little fighting done

keen eyes and AN appreciation of the

and the men of this regiment have
nothing for which to rcproach them
selves. They left many dead in these
dark valleys. and only surrendered
when there was no other option.

The enemys measures TO hold this
plateau proved how seriously he must
have regarded its loss. The Seventh

enemy's resistance was broken, and
that he had decided that The plateau
could not be held. Even then it seemed
for shor; time as IL the Americans
left OF the valley, but the men. flushed
with victory, showed even greater de-
termination than on the day before.
and after four hours, during which
there was no forward movement pos

come to the Americans. Progress had
been made by the French on the right,
and eventually practically Impossible

who were still trying TO cling 10 the

Won Bisg:ng at Close Quarters

Ihe man whose name, justly or cn- justly, was destined to stand forth to the world as a symbol of one of the dark est, cruelest and most mister pages Of its miserable history" is thus described by Brand Whitlock in Everybody's.
 General Baron Won Bissing, standing there in the lofty salon of the residence of the Belgian minister of the arts and ciences, in the early twilight of that sAort December afternoon, was a r,an over 70 years of age. old and thin, witt thick E3ayinS black hair brushed straight back from his forehead and plastered down as with water or with oil on the curiously shaped head that was so straight and sheer behind. His face was hard and its leathern skin, wrinkted and old and weather beaten, was remorse- lessly shaved as to chin and throat and high lean cheeks, ig:4ving the thick heavy mnstache of f'russian reiter to hide somewhat the thin lips of the stern mouth and then flow on, growing across his cheeks to bristle up 1eScely by his ears,
 He was scrupulously clean, one might almost say scrubbed. One might almost, imagine him smelling of soap like an old sergeant major in a regiment af guards. His brow was high and wide and the lean face tapered to the wedge of very firm jaw; the visage of a4 old Prussian dragon of the school and mentality of Bismarck. But out of it there glean,ed 8 pair of piercing dark eyes that seemed black un- til one saw that they were blue; they were keen, shrewd eyes, not wholly un- Kind. He wore, tremendously, a great Aeavy saber that clanked against his
 egs as he walked stiffly into the salon until its hilt was grasped, as though by an habitual gesture, in the aged hand.

Transportation and the Farmer

N The r arm and flreS1de says.
 Transportation by land and sea has become in many respects the most vital problem of the war. And just to the ex- -ent the United States can solve this problem. to that extent .will this country be influential not only in forcing a just aeace according to it's desires, but having accomplished this it TiE then ha in posi- tion to maintain it's place commercially the world over through these same means of transportation on land and water.
 One of the most telling arguments for centralization of transportation control was brought out during the cosS famine
 ast winter when it was found that com peting railroads were in many places hauling coal in directly opposite directions for long. distances when coal consumers or wouid-be consumers were freezing and had to wait until a competing road could deliver them coal.
 "The' farmer is among those most in terested in the new order of Iailroadi-, he having learned to his sorrow long ago now inadequate our transportation was during the stress of moving crops follow Ing each season ot heavy production. He now understands as few others do that on the ability.,of the railroads and wa .erways to move farm products prompt- Ey will depend largely his chances for Realizing fair deal for his labor"

THE UNWR1TTEN LAW

A Hinds county jury has declared J. Luther Sinaletary, a bank cashier of { florence, Rankin county, not guilty oI the murder of Dr. G. l.. Todd, and he walked forth a free man after year iE j.il This vas the second trial, there having been @ hung jury in the first trial S~ months ago. Singietary walked into Dr. Todd office in this city and shot him 10 t1ath, claiming self defense. as well as raaIging Todd with having sA- dueed his wife. On the first trial the wife testified to that effect, but before the seeond srial shc ans hSr husband fell ou; adn she filed an affidavit with the corrt that she had sworn falsely just To have her husbands neck, and that there had never bech any intimary between herself and Todd. However, this was nor before the jury
