ARTILLERY PRACTICE
At CAMP GORDON
COTTON FIELDS AROUND BLACK
JACK MOUNTAIN ECHO WITH
BARK OF FIELD PIECES AFTER
FIFTY YEARS SILENCE

CAMP GORDON, Ca, Feb. 20.-The
cotton fields around Black Jack Noun
tain, near the artillery range of Camp
Gordon, once more echo with the bark
OF field pieces. Fifty years ago this
section resounded with the roar of
guns resisting the Union army and the
grandsons of some men who fought
here in '16 are becoming proficient in
handling field guns to meet the Ger
mans.
The range is broad sweep of ter
rltory, ideally suited for the purpose,
short distance from Marietta. The
guns are planted in cotton field be-
hind hill, with Kennesaw mountain
to the rear and the blue fringe of old
Black Jack straight in front.
Every morning for two hours this
range is swept by projectiles and ev-
cry shot fired brings real war thrill
first the yellow flame spouting from
the gun, the thunderous report, the
hiss and scream of shrapnel, the far
away explosion and the puff if smoke
in the distance.
Camp Gordon's artillerymen are win
ming on the Marietta range the battles
they will fight in Europe. In Cobb
county they are learning to shoot.
Each battalion remains at the site two
weeks. The firing is generally start
ed about $50 in the morning and then
it is rapid succession of salvos and
volleys for two hours.
There is one battery at the range
and the artillery boys scamper around
the guns like the men old in the game
in spite Of the fact that last Sep
TENDER they were civilians. They load
coolly and swiftly, each man in each
gun squad performing his duties with
energy. They take the keenest de-
light in making good shot and spray
ing the far-away targets with deadly
pellets,
The range is regular theatre of
war, with everything except the enc
my. 1t has men, field pieces, field
telephones, telescopes, targets, tents,
and area in plenty.
The first gun was fired on the range
in December and ever since then the
three-inchers have been barking on
this site.

FEAST OF PURIM TO
Be OBSERVED FEB. 26

Purim or the Feast of Queen Esther
will be observed by the Hebrews
February &c. 1t is a season of re-
joicing and merry-making, as it cele-
brates the deliverance of the He
byews from the power of Hannah at
the time of King Ahasuerus.
In the orthodox sypagogues there
is a short service in which the 'read-
ing of the Book of Esther is the prin-
ciple part. Among the reform con-
gregations it is a home celebration.
Purim is the Hebrew for casting of
lots, as Hannah cast lots to decide
the day on which he was to destroy
the Hebrews, in order to crafty his
hatred against Mordecai. Queen
Esther, who was niece of Mordecai
found out the plot against her people
and by her intercession with the King
was the means of saving her people
from destruction. Hannah was hung
on the gallows which he had built to
execute Mordecai, and the people
people celebrated what has come down
in Jewish history as Purim or Queen
Esther's Feast.

the fact that petitions are mailed upon

Mrs. J. P. Dunn, one of the first

carried the few personal effects which

Mark Kellogg, who came here from
Webster, Ia, obtained from General
Terry permission to accompany the
expedition Of 1876 as newspaper cor.
respondent. His body was among the
few OF all the white men slain at Lit
tie Big Horn in that terrible massacre
which was not mutilated by Sitting
Bulls followers. On ,Kellogg's person
was found his daily journal. which was
brought back to Bismarck. The trans
cription, typed from the original notes
by Mrs. Fannie Dunn Quain, is still
in Mrs. Dunn's possession. 1t affords
an Interesting day-to-day history OF
the expedition down to the last tragic
moment
Kellogg's bag, now on exhibition at

General Won Arnim is bringing up re-
Inducements and supplies, but the
Anglo-French troops, stirred by the
brilliant repulse of the enemy, which
caused him to cease his attacks for
the second time, wait confidently.
Germans Must Fight
AS the break in the hard fighting
was followed by stronger attacks, it Is
probable that only the difficulty of
transport and supply compel the en-
envy to withhold further assaults on
the British from Mont KENNEL west
ward. Except for Mont KENNEL and
small strip to the east, including
Messines ridge, the Germans are on
much lower ground than the French
and British and must either fight or
be compelled eventually to withdraw
before the smothering fire of the al
lied artillery. ~..@ r-........ w..
Heavy artillery fighting and the
usual outpost actions continue along
the front. Around the important sec
tor of Locre the French have been
shelled very heavily by the enemy.
American troops in Picardy, east of
Amiens, have engaged the German in
fantry for the first time on the great
battlefield and have emerged victo-
riously. Sharp fighting took place all
along the line, and the Germans were
repulsed, having sustained severe
losses and leaving dead and wounded
on the fields. The American losses
were reported as rather severe"
Bohemia Fights Austria
Fighting for democracy and for
freedom of their homeland, Bohemian
and Slav detachments are now facing
Austro.H hungarian troops along the Sec
tors in northern Italy. Apparently
these units have been recruited from
former residents of the dual monar-
chy, and from deserters from the en-
envy ranks. Austro-Hungarian COM
mnaders who have many thousands OF
Czechs and Slavs in their units, are
said to be fearful of the effect this
move may have on their own troops.
This and the fact that the Czechs at
Prague and elsewhere and the Slavs
in Carniola and southwark have be-
come openly hostile to the Austrian
government may explain why the en-
envy offensive against Italv has been
delayed. Berlin has heralded and
urged an offensive, but Austro-Hun-
garian attacks have not yet developed.
