Washinqton Report

WASHINGTON, April 4.-Renewal of the German assaults against the British and French lines in Picardy to- day indicated to military observers here that the Germans, having gath cred strength during the lull of the last few days, might now be ready 10 launch their greatest effort. Some of ficers think the allied commanders re- alize that only the first phase of the gigantic battle has passed. and that this probably accounts for the fact that no eXentensive counter movements has been undertaken as yet.
 It is pointed out that the previous record of the German high command argues against any possibility that it would be content with the minor strat- egic advantages already gained by their costly enterprise, or with the abandonment of it's plans without fur ther attempts to force apart the French and British armies. The battle of Nerdun continued for months before the Germans admitted that their object was unattainable.
 Under the new publicity policy, the war department had nothing to add to reports from abroad as to the situation at the front. Casualty lists from France again were withheld. Major General March. acting chief of staff said he had cabled Secretary Baker for specific instructions in this regard. Publication of the new censorship rules promulgated by General PershinG caused considerable comment. On the face of those regulations it was plain that the public is to hear very little of what American troops are doing un- til long after the fact. The official communiques will be the only source ,f1r
 A new interpretation was placed to- day on the appointment of General Foch as supreme commander of all al 1 lied and American forces in France. The plan for a generalissimo. it was stated, had been approved long ago by the supreme war council. but it was not regarded as urgent that the ap
 pointment should be made at once until
 the big offensive started.

PRACTICAL USE OF POETRY
Without Verse People Would Go About
Isolated From Each Other by
Chaos Of Misunderstanding.

II poetry could be in an instant
swept not merely out of print. but
out of language and tradition. there
would be Babel indeed We should.
go about isolated each one from each
by a chaos Of misunderstanding, with
no more communication than we could
improvise out of intellectual terms.
says a writer Ia Century Magazine.
We could suggest nothing, connote
nothing, say nothing but what we
could define. The practical reality of.
that loss one may measure by our
proverbia ignorance of certain saw
tges and oriental races whose poetry
is alien to our own. Nor is that all
for poetry is pot alone our common
repository Of past experience, but TO
Il degree far greater than we realize
our source of present action There
is no need more than to remind any
observer of human nature that man
kind acts rather upon passion than
upon conviction. Brutus demonstrated
his point in prose 1t was a poetic ap-
peal that made the stones of Rome TO
rise and mutiny. We define and de
termine and decide, and still do moth
ing but when we begin to feel, some
thing is done.

Evolution Of the Lamp.

DIR. Walter Clark of Philadelphia
has recently made some interesting in
vestigations TO find out how the old
time lighting conditions in his city
compare with those of today, says the
Popular Science Monthly. He has dis
covered that until as late as 1885, only
1ickering sperm oil and candles We're
in use. Not until the following decade
did the highly improved" kerosene
lamp appear. Gas did not come out
until the period between 1868 and 1878.
And then only the wealthy could use
it. 1t sold at $3.50 per thousand cubic
feet The efficient Welsbach mantle
came out ten years later, revolutiOniz-
ing artificial illumination. The pres
ent era began in 1895, when gas and
electricity came into general use-gas
selling at 81 per thousand cubic feet
and electricity at 10 cents per kilO-
watt hour. Since that time the gas
mantle and the electric filament have
seen vast improvements, so that today
the average family is. obtaining about
eighteen times as much light as the
people of haif a century ago.

ANIMALS ARE GOOD SWIMMERS.
Polar Bear, Who Passes His Time in
Icy Waters, Is Regarded Best,
Though Not swiftest.

Nearly all animals are better SWIM
mers than man and take TO the water
naturally. The rhinocer0s and hippo
potamus are wonderful swimmers and
divers. while the Indian elephant
crosses great rivers with heavy loads,
London Tit-Bits states.
The elk and the reindeer are first
class swimmers. The elk keeps his
head above water and crosses directly
from bank to bank TO avoid turning.
The reindeer on the other hand turns
as often as he likes, keeping his head
only little above the surface. BUT OF
all swimmers of all climes the best
though not the swiftest is the polar
bear, who passes half his time IN the
water swimming and diving. His
swimming power is nothing short of
miraculous If II be remembered that
the water in the regions he frequents
is invariably cold and that cold is nor
mally prohibitive to good swimming.
There are bears that can swim from
twenty-five to thirty miles without
great effort.
One of the swiftest swimming ami
mails is the squirrel. A sportsman on
one occasion, having at hand a squr-
rel horn in captivity, which had never
seen water, wanted to see if it could
swim and took it with him in row.
boat to the center Of the lake. The
squirrel turned toward the bank, head
and paws above the water, back and
tail underneath 1t. aud began to swim
so rapidly that it was with the great
est difficulty that the man recovered it
when it reached the shallow water
