decIaI ed bluntly for acceptance Of
any Grmistice terms and the ending
Of the war on the best obtaina BILE
terms and is reported here TO have
cialst leaders in the various units
Of the confederacy.
Revolt Gains Force.
The revolutionary movement In
the maritime cities of north Ger
many, continue 10 gain in force. The
socialist local governments in all of
these cities are expected TO work in
unison with their colleagues Of the
south and the real political crisis as
a result is rapidly approaching. The
one thing missing just now seems
10 be a leader.
The radical socialists have re-
fused TO accept Scheidemann on the
ground that he has been too friend
" 10 the kaiser. The moderates
have declined to allow DR.. Karl Lieb-
knecht TO dominate, declaring that
he leans too far toward the bolshe-
vik. idea. Should the present devel-
opments bring 10 the front a man
or men about whom all can rally,
the advent of a German republic
would be a certainty in the very
near future, according to diplomats
here whose sources of information
are better than those usually avail
able.
Great Crisis Impcnds.
In any event the great crisis in
the war impends. Should the arm
istice commissioners wait until the
last possible moment before an
nouncing their decision, it will be In
the hands of the entente allies not
later than II o'clock (French time)
on Monday morning. If they accept
there will be prompt action by the
allies 10 prevent any bolshevik out
RACES such as plunged Russia into
its present chaos. There will, how
ever. be no interference Of any sort
bv the allies with the political
changes within Germany. The peo-
pie there can organize any govern
ment they want.
Should the armistice terms be re-
iected. then the war will go on just
as at present. The military move
ments now in progress will make
for the complete crushing Of the
German army If the war continues.
officials today pointed out that the
military operations OF the last week
have been overlooked in the light Of
the armistice developments How
ever. the Germans now have only
one OF their strategic railway lines,
that down the valley OF the Meuse,
IN operation. The line TO Metz is
under the fire Of the American guns
and it has no cross connections
with the Meuse route. Lille and
Valenciennes lines are no longer op-
Grating and that which feeds Maui
beuge is under British fire.
Escape Grows Difficult.
The mouth OF the pocket through
which all Of the German armies left
in France must make their escape
from the battering ram machine OF
Foch is now less than 90 miles wide
and every hour sees 1t shorts1ed.
Retaliation OF this fact had caused
the military experts here 70 hope
that at the last moment Germany
will refuse the armistice terms and
decide 10 fight on. Should this be
done. these experts say. the war will
end anyhow before the first Of the
wear in a complete victory for the
allied armies
However. the next as hours must,
Of necessity. tell the tale.

"OWR THE TOP"
By ARTHUR GUY EMPEY
Copyrighted by Arthur Guy Empey.

rife over the top aimed in the direc-
ton of Berlin and engages in what is
known as the mad minute" This
consists in firing fifteen shots in a
minute. He Is not aiming at anything
in particular-just sends over each
shot with a prayer. hoping that one of
his strays will get some poor unsus-
pecting Fritz in the napper hundreds
Of yards behind the lines. 1t gener-
ally does: that's the reason the
Boches hate the man from Erin's
Isle.
The Saxons. though better than the
Prussians and Bavarians, have a mas
ty trait of treachery in their make
up.
At one point of the line where the
trenches were very close. a stake was
driven into the ground midway be-
tween the hostile lines. At night.
when II was his turn, Tommy would
crawl to this stake and attach some
London papers to it, while at the foot
he would place tins of bully beef.
fags, sweets, and other delicacies
that he had received from Blighty in
the ever looked-for parcel. Later
on Fritz would come out and get
these luxuries.
The next night Tommy would go
out to see what Fritz had put in his
stocking. The donation generally
consisted Of a paper from Berlin. tell
ing who was winning the war. some
timed sausages, cigars, and occa-
sionally a little beer, but a funny
thing. Tommy never returned with
the beer unless it was inside of him.
His platoon got a Whit of his breath
one night and the offending Tommy
lost his job.
One night a young English sergeant
crawled to the stake and as he tried
to detach the German paper a bomb
exploded and mangled him horribly.
Fritz had set his trap and gained an
other victim. which was only one
more black mark against him in the
book of this war. From that time on
diplomatic relations were severed.
Returning to Tommy, I think his
spirit is best shown in the questions
he asks. 1t is never who Is going
to win." but always how long will
it take?"
TO BE CONTINUED TOMORROW.

HOROSCOPE.
Thursday, February IS, 1918.

Thursday, February IS, 1918.
According to astrology this is a most
favorable day, all the influences be-
ing read as stimulating and encour-
aging. Jupiter, Neptune, Saturn and
the Sun are In benefc aspect
The stars seem to encourage trade
and especially initiative in new lines
of commerce. There is a sign read
as promising for novel enterprises
brought about by changed world con-
ditions.
This should be a fortunate day for
all who go to sea and warning is
given to make the most Of every aus
picious sway, for over the waters
broods peril greater than any that
has yet menaced the United States.
Today should be most profitable for
all who deal in oil or oil products,
but the same planets that smile on
commerce that profits by petroleum
also promise a substitute which will
seem as miraculous as the turning Of
water into wine," the seers declare.
This is an auspicious day for all
who seek the favor Of persons In high
place and there will be vancancies
much coveted before the summer,
astroIogers perdict. These will occur
not only in the army but in various
government positions.
This should be a day fairly fortu-
nate for mining interests, and especial
ly for those connected with copper.
Under this rule Of the panets. which
Is supposed to accentuate energy and
egotism. warning is given that dam
ger will lurk where persons new to
authority in army or navy become
too self-assertive.
Again it is prophesied that 1918 will
be marked by surprises of every sort
Sensational occurrences will become
common as the tardy spring advances.
All the influences seem to focus
good and bad conditions for women.
In other words they will experience
the greatest extremes.
Persons whose birthdate 1t - have
the augury Of a successful year.
Those who are employed may expect
promotion. The young will court and
marry.
Children born on this day are likely
to be generous and trustworthy.
