Fight of Chemists Is
 One Of Great Maruels
 Of Present Great War
Germanys Gas Experiments Have Always Been Met Wth
 Counter Measures and Now Uncle Sam's Men Will Beat Them at Their Own Game
By HUGH w. ROBERTS

Germans perfected so-caled concealed gas. The Russians, strange to relate, met this invention by the production of a mask which not only protected against the poison. but neutraized it, as well. And then the Teutons conceived the idea of hurling their gas in bombs.
 This scheme worked well for the time being. And then France learned that the detonation following the explosion of a gas bomb differed from that following the explosion of a bomb loaded with shrapnel. As soon as a gas bomb ex- ploded, the signal was given, and the men protected themselves by donning masks. And then the Teutons perfected an odorless gas--a death-dealing sub- stance which was not detected until men, their hearts stopped, fell dead in their steps. This gas was not fired in sepa- rate bombs to be detected by the deto- nation, but was commingled with the substances contained in the ordinary bomb of battle.
 It was this form of gas attack which was successful, and the announcement is against the American trenches. It was this form of gas attack which the Amer ican government prepared to counteract.
 Tn it's preparation. this government wa successful, and the announcement is now made that the Germans will be met by gas attacks more serious than their own

Washington, March A. tSpecialz.) .)-Since the Germans succeeded in gassing 66 Americans in the trenches to the west ern front, this government has permit ted one to learn something of the ex- tent the Wilhelmstrasse has gone into chemistry for the purpose of winning the war.
 And in this connection the government has permitted it to become known that it is prepared to fight fire with fire; that 1t is not only prepared to prevent the success of German gas attacks, but to meet them with gas attacks more serious than their own. One hundred milliona dollars have been expended in the inven- tion and manufacture of a. new type of mask. As to the details of the new American gas attack nothing has been divulged
 As to Teuton ingenuity, remarkable story is told. In the beginning, the Ger mans, whenever the wind was favorable, floated into the trenches of their adver- saries poisonous gas. In the begin- ming this form of attack was successful Then the ordinary mask came into be- ing, and the German weapon was rem dered unavailable. Nothing daunted, the

LAFOLLETTE IS
 AGAIN SAVED IN
 STATE BY DELAYS

Madison, Wis.,, March 4.--Action by the lower house of the Wisconsin legislature on the loyalty resolution censuring Sena- tor LaFollette for his attitude in the war, again was delayed tonight because of inability to muster the required num- Der of legislators. Whether the attend ance would make possible vote tomor- row night remained uncertain.
 When the call for the house was is- sued this morning there were 42 members in their seats. The afternoon session showed 53 and still others arriving on evening trains. The anti-La Toilette wing, however, requires 5l votes to overcome the opposition and Assemblyman Evjue, LaFollette's floor. leader, after scanning the roll call and reports of absentees, asserted that it was doubtful if vote could be taken tomorrow night.
 Illness of Assemblyman Mahon of Mill waukee left the so-called loyalists with out distinct leadership.
 It is said that several members who have voted in manner to delay con- sideration of the resolution, which al- reaoy has passed the senate, will vote for it once it is before the house.
 There were no test votes today, but MT. Evjue claimed that 27 of those pres ent were opposed to criticism of Sena- tor IaFollette largely on the grounds that the republican party of the state will have opportunity to express it's sen timents at the primaries March 19, by voting for or against LaFolletteis candi- date for senator.

MINISTRIES MAKE HIT

Anniston, March Especial )-The Lib-
 erty Loan Minstrels of the 113th infantry
 at Camp Mcclellan made big hit with the people of Talladega when they
 played before packed house at the
 Elks theatre Saturday evening. The 40
 men in the troupe, in full minstrel cos
 tunes, played extra well on the occasion
 of their first appearance in the Hill City. The troupe presented their show un- der the direction of Capt. Warren F.
 Coon, chaplain of the 11Sth infantry, Lieut.. James Alwyn Jenkins and Corp.
 Jack Mccormick.
 After the performance, which lasted two hours the young ladies of Talladega gave an enjoyable dance in compliment to the soldier players. music for the oc- casion being furnished by Ire minstler
 orchestra. It is understood that General
 Morton desires the liberty loan minstrel troupe of the 18th infantry to travel and show in several Alabama towns for the
 purpose of aiding the third liberty loan campaign.
 Chaplain Coon occupied the pulpit at the Trinity Methodist church Sunday
 morning. and the services were attended by every man in the minstrel troupe. The Blue and Gray quartet sang with the church choir and Frank Wiebe, basso, also sang. Musicians Lauck and Wilk- erson played ccrnet and violin duet at the church service.
 The liberty loan minstrels were enter tained delightfully."- by the people of Tal- ladega during their stay there, and all of the members of the troupe are loud il. their praise of the Talladega peo-
