"Fields and Battlefields"

TAKE man of any literary ability
l. whatever, put uniform on him and
act him down somewhere in France within
hearing of the guns at the front and he
will positively have to write a book Of
his impressions and experiences. 1t is in
evitable.
Fields and Battlefelds is another Of the
rising food Of war books that seem to
have been written to ease the authors
mind of the singing impulse to sit down
and put it all on paper. Except that it
occasionally portrays in vivid sketchy
fashion intimate moments in the life OF
the British Tommy behind the lines, the
book makes little definite contribution to
the literature of the war proper.
The author is not known to the publish
ers except for the number borne on his
army identification tag, 81 $40. The work
is therefore signed with those numerals.
Perhaps hint as to his former voca-
ton, if not as to his identity, may be
found in the following:
81 slipped my cocoa and dreamed Of
my last incarnation millions Of years ago
when l was Victorian and clergyman,
when the enemy was Newman or Canon
Kingsley and the battlefelds were diocesan
conferences, the common rooms of Oxford,
or the pages of the Monthly Packet"

ROME WHARFBOAT To
Be BROUGHT HERE
Greene Line Buys Rome Boat and
VIII Bring II Here This Week
Captain PhiSter VIII Retire.

The Greene Line Steamboat Com
pany, which for several weeks has
been planning to bring the Ripley
wharfboat to Maysville to care for
the freight hauled on their boats, has
changed their plans according to in
formation received here yesterday.
Instead of bringing the Ripley wharf
boat to Maysvillc, they have pur-
chased a wharfboat at Rome, Ohio
and it has been brought to Manches-
ter, Ohio where it is now undergoing
a thorough overhauling. The new
boat will he brought to Maysville
sometime this week.
Upon the arrival of the Greene Line
boat, Captain c. NJ. Phister, who has
been operating the local wharf for
many years, will retire from the
freight handling business but he still
remains city wharfmaster.
AS the Green Line is the only line
of steamboats, now operating in this
district of the Ohio. it would be folly
for Captain Phister to continue oper-
alton as all of the freight would be
handled through the other wharfboat.

MISS HUGHES IS
GOING TO MARION
Superintendent OF the city Mission
Resigns to Become Head of Char
ity Work in Larger City.

Miss Mary Frank Hughes, who has
been Superintendent of the Maysville
City Mission for some time, has just
returned from Marion, Ind, where she
accepted a position as Secretary of
the Associated Charities of that city
Miss Hughes has rendered her re-
signation as Superintendent of the To-
cal institution and will take charge
of her new work on August 18th. She
leaves here with the best wishes of
a great host of friends made in her
work. Her management of the local
institution has been all that her board
of directors and the city officials eX-
pected and all are certain that she
will make good in her new work.
Marion is a city of 10000 people and
the rendering of this position to Miss
Hughes comes as a very high compli-
ment and as an Acknowledgement of
the very splendid work she did in
Maysville.
A meeting of the directors of the
Maysville City Mission will be held
this afternoon and arrangements will
be made to secure successor for
Miss Hughes
