TWO GOOD TALES
 OF FTRAPSHOOTERs
BandmaSter SouSa Becomes Good Shot, but Fred Gilbert
 Is No Drummer.
DESIRED TO BE A MUSICIAN
Spirit Lake Silver cornet Band Still Looking for Someone to Beat Big Bass Drum-Where Mar
 shall Learned A, B, C's.

Many are the tales told among trap- shooters about members of the clan and their doings. Two of the stories that have gone the rounds of the trap fraternity are given here.
 John Philip Sousa, the bandmaster, and Fred Gilbert, the professional trapshet, are friends of long stand ing. Sousa at dinner given in Gil- bert's honor, told of his first meeting with Fritz" and the proposal that Gill bert teach Sousa how to shoot clay pigeons, in return for which instruc- tion, Sousa was to teach Gilbert the most approved way to play a bass drum.
 As the music master told 1t, "F'ritz" had conf1ded his great ambition to be- come the bass drummer of the Silver Cornet Band of Spirit Lake, la, his home town, while, on the other hand, Sousa told Gilbert that since he was known among trapshooters as a mu- sician, he was desirous of making a reputation among musicians as trap shooter.
 Mastered Boom Beats.
 The terms were accepted by both the party of the first part and the party of the second part, and instruc- tion began. However, according to Sousa, while Gilbert quickly mastered the boom beats on the drum, he has never succeeded in progressing to the bumpety, boom, boom stage, and the s. B. c. of Spirit Lake still needs a bass drummer.
 Sousa's high scores at the traps pay tribute to the great musician as a pupil and Fritz" Gilbert as an in- structor
 The "hero" of this narrative is Tom Marshall, the dean of sharpshooting and the games official orator.
 Learned His A, B, c's.
 When the all-Ameriean trapshooting team returned from England, after having defeated the best shooting tall ent of the British Isles, Captain Mar shall, with several of his teammates, hibitions of shooting skill in an ef- fort to popularize trapshooting.
 Captain Marshall acted as spokes- man of the missionaries" and pref aced his explanation of the sport with a few well-chosen words, in which he paid tribute to the particular city in which the demonstration was held.
 We are told that among the things he said was: Tt is with peculiar pleas ure that I come here to -; a place so intimately associated with my early days, for 1t was in the little red school house over wonder (there is always a little R. S.-over wonder in every sec tion) that learned my a, b, c's."
 This neat little "bulr' invariably made a hit, and was given liberal space in the newspapers of the towns un- til the editors-through an exchange discovered that From" had learned his "a, b, c's" at least p times in as many different places.
 It is needless to say that thereafter Captain Marshall never made refer ence to his early education.

STTTUTES.

Beans and peas can be used in
place of much of the meat we eat.
They are rich in materials which the
body needs-The body building pro-
minerals and they give the body a
large amount of fuel. 1t is not wise
to use the beans and peas as our only
protein food, however, and leave out
milk, meat, or fish entirely. But
many of us. can use less meat which
is more expensive and ia needed to
send abroad to our fighters and the
allies.
To Cook Dried Peas and Beans.
You can cook them all in the same
way; then, after they are tender. they
can be made into anything you wish
baked beans or peas, soup, a vege-
table stew, a loaf or a salad.
Soak for four hours or overnight in
twice as much water as there are
peas or beans. Cook in the water in
which they are soaked unless it has
an unpleasant taste. Add more wa
ter as it boils away. Cook from one
to two hours. depending on the age
and variety and on the purpose for
which they are to be used. If they
are to be used as vegetable. do not
let them get too soft. They are eN-

troubled with constipation. Mrs

that when she first moved to Mattoon
she was a great sufferer from indi-

like heavy weight pressing on her

tional Army and report what legal re-
dress he has for the action of the civil
authorities of the state of Oklahoma
in arresting and imprisoning him for
alleged violation of the state "jim

Lieut.. Tribbett is from New York and
was graduated from the colored officers

assigned to duty with colored troops at
Camp Upton, Yaphank. Long Island
while on that duty. the records of the
war Department show that recently he
was ordered to proceed by the usual

he was travelling stopped at a station

They did it by the extreme care with
which they laid their guns and made

and by an Indifference to losses which

But although the Germans were able

ward, and then. in turn, should the al
lied armies at the psychological moment
strike, and strike hard, sweeping the
hosts of Won Hindenburg. Ludendorff
and the kaiser back toward the Rhine,
then and then only will the German
people become entirely convinced of the
failure of their military leaders. Then
and then only will they decide that an
other winter of warfare is not worth
while. Whether or not they can bring
about an end to the war before the
year has passed is another question.
The spirit ot public discomfort leading
to the overthrow OF the present regime
will at least crystallize Under such
circumstances the future would not be
to the interest Of the kaiser or his war
lords.
During the past week the chief German
attacks were delivered against the Brit
ish in the vicinity of Albert, where the
Tommies hurled back two German ad-
vances. The Germans made some gains
in the valley of the Luce and struck
forward between Montdidier and the
Peronne-Amiens road. They also at
tackled between Morlancourt and the
Somme and delivered several attacks
against the French at Grievnes. but
failed. The allies scored. in addition to
their general defensive warfare, some
successes near Plermont, Ayette and
near Hebuterne, where small gains
were made.
