Indignation Is
 Rife in London
 Ouer Statement
fRr Reriew LeaseN VII


 LONDON. Jan. 7.-Much indignation has been caused among American army and navy officials and other Americans in London because of re ports circulated in the United States that American soldiers and sailors m Europe were drinking to excess. This indignation has been intensified by charge made in his sermon al the City Temple Sunday by the Rev. Dr. Joseph Fort Newton. of Iowa, the pastor, or drunkenness among American soldiers in England. ''When l see American boys staggering in the street drunk hate London" was one of the utter anceS of pr. Newton.
 Vice Admiral William $. Sims. com mander of the American naval forces and Colonel :. L. H. Slocum. military attache Of the American embassy in London. today declared that the ehage of drunkenness was false and that they also were a reflection on the American forces as well as an insult to Great Britain Admiral Sims said their never was time in American history when there was so little drunk enneSs among the American fighting forces. He had been here for eight msnths. he said. and hsd visited the American flotilia base and various cities in England and on the French front and never had seen a drunken American soldier or sailor and no case

of drunkenness in the navy had been called to his attention.
 Admiral Sims Talks.
 The Americans did not come tO Europe to get drunk" Admiral Sims continued. This war is a serious bus mess with them. AS far as the navy is concerned. the young men who are hunting for submarines realize that they must have all their wits about them. Besides there is fine feeling Of honor among them. They know he navy's orders. They are here to aid their country; they are here to make a record"
 Colonel SlOcum also declared that he had never seen a drunken Ameri- can fighting man on this side of the water Walter Hines Page, American ambassador. and the secretaries of the embassy, the American consul gen eral and the officials of the consulate all made similar aSsertiOns-that they had never observed an intoxicated American soldier or sailor in the streets of oLndOn or anywhere else in this country.
 The Rev. Dr. Newton iu statement today said that he was called recently 10 Eagle Hut. the M. c. A head quarters. and that there were three American soldiers there who were so intoxicated that they could not take off their clothes and go So bed One of these men. he added. had been bap- tiSed by him years ago.
 Newton Criticised.
 "I have seen Americans drunk in the streets" Dr. Newton continued. ~l am Ss proud of my country as the army and navy officials are. but I am thinking Of these boys"
 An investigation today showed that it was the general opinion that any drunkenness on this side of American ;ol6isrs and sailors Is confined to a few isolated cases and that Dr New tons remarks are appreciated by British officials. One of these off cialS said today;
 "Dr NewtOn'S allegations regarding intemperance generally are in striking contrast to the known facts. Regard ing drunkenness in London al the present day. the total number or cases

TAR SAVES HIS SHIP.
U. S. Sailor Leaps on Depth Bomb
Bomb Loose in Storm.
Bave Act Announced by Secretary
Daniels-Hero Given Medal OF
Honor and $500.

Washington, April 3O.-How. John
Mackenzie, chief boatswain's mate
in the naval reserve, by extraordi-
nary heroism saved the converted
yacht Remlik, on patrol service in
European waters, was told in.an an
nouncement by Secretary Daniels that
the navy department had awarded
Mackenzie the medal of honor and
gratuity of 500.
During a heavy gale on December
u a depth charge weighing several
hundred pounds broke loose from it's
fastenings at the stern Of the Remlik
and went sweeping about the deck.
The heavy seas washing over the quar-
terdeck made it dangerous for anyone
to attempt to reach that part of the
ship.
AS officers and crew watched the
bomb, some one saw the safety pin
fall out of the charge, making it
source of serious danger to the vessel
and crew.
Mackenzie, realizing the danger,
shouted: watch me; I'll get it," and
dashed down the deck, fiinging him
self upon the charging cylinder.
Before the war Mackenzie had
served four years in the regular navy.
He is a native of Massachusetts and
his mother, Mrs. Mary Mackenzie,
lives in South Hadley Falls, Mass.

PEKING SEES DEVIL DANCE
Ceremony Instituted During the Using
Dynasty More Than 200 Years
Ago, Enacted by Priests.

Picking recently witnessed the cere-
lnony instituted during the Using
dynasty, over 200 years ago, known as
the "devil dance" It took place in the
Lama temple, and was witnessed by
several thousand devout Buddhist
worshipers, says East and West.
Eighty priests danced in groups, vary
ing in number from two to twenty.
All the celebrants wore gorgeously en-
,roidered silk robes and masks repre-
sentipg animals. Conspicuous were
heads OF, tigers, oxen, sheep and deer.
The dance ended at two o'clock in the
afternoon, when procession of the
priests, formed and proceeded to the
east gate of the temple grounds, where
the paper effigy of nude woman was
burned.
The legend which the ceremony com.
memorates Is that the devil, in form
of woman, ran about the country,
casting spells and working mischief to
crops, animals and humans. Attempts
to catch her were futile until the Bud
dha sent a charmed horse to run her
down. The animal overlook the flee
ing woman after race of 10000 Ii,
seized her in his teeth, brought her to
q place of punishment where she was
publicly destroyed by fire. The female
figure is not alike on all occasions;
sometimes an old bag is represented,
but generally the woman is young and
comely, as being more dangerous to
mankind.
