Opinion Of German Leader In Regard
to Kaiser.
London, Dec. 2S,-Shooting the for
mer kaiser and his co-conspirators
against world peace would be letting
them off too easily, in the opinion of
Richard Barth, socialist member of the
German r~eichstag. The best punish
ment would be to make them rebuild
Belgium and northern France, he de-
clared in an interview with the Ber-
lin correspondent of the Express.
Personally / believe the war origi-
mated in Berlin" said Barth. The main
reason being hat the kaiser wanted
to rule the world.
1.-THE others responsible are the
crown prince, Admiral Won Tirpitz and
General o Falkenhayn. Their pun
ishment cannot be too severe"

RAYMOND GIRL
 NOT SATISFIED

Jene Raymond does not relish the idea of spending 30 days in the city jail. She was sentenced to serve such term after City Magistrate Frank Thomas on Tuesday pronounced her guilty of being an inmate of house of prostitu- ton. She had been arrested at the Seventh Street hotel on Monday even ing, along with Joe Garcia, alleged pro- prietor of the place, and Pauline Mar tinez, about whom there hangs an air of mystery the police and federal au- thorities are endeavoring to unravel
 So distasteful is jail life to the Ray mond woman, she has enlisted the services of Attorney E. B. Goodwin to secure her release. Yesterday Attorney Goodwin visited Judge Thomas and announced that he was prepared to take an appeal in behalf of his client. - What will be the amount of the bond required" he asked of the city magistrate.
 "One hundred dollars will be about right, I think" said Judge Thomas.
 Isn't that excessive?' continued Goodwin.
 Not at all, especially in view of the fact that your client will probably view the bond in the light of fine and will not carry the case to a con- clusion,' replied the judge
 Up to the hour of the closing of the office of Judge Thomas yesterday the required bond was not forthcoming Judge Thomas in speaking of the affair later said he was determined to do what he could to rid this .city of the undesirable element and that he didn't believe this could be accomplished by the assessment of nominal fines. He said that the average violator will pay a fine and then resume their offenses against the law. They soon leave town if the city jail doors yawn for them.

GRAIN

CHICAGO, March 6.-Corn brought better prices today, helped little by improvement in the average quality of arrivals. The market closed steady with May s1.27A, net advance of shade. Oats gained A@ss to so F. Provisions ranged from Pc decline to rise of 7c.
 Nearly half of the supply of corn coming in still contained more than 23 per cent of moisture. Unsettled weather and a falling off in the ra- pidity of the crop movement counted more or less in favor of the bulls. Es- inmates were current that the total stock of corn on farms was 1,454,000, 900 bushels, an aggregate surpassing any previous records.
 Scantiness of offerings except on decided upturns gave strength to oats, and so, too. did export business by way of the Gulf. Estimates of farm re- serves, 534,00000O bushels, failed to keep prices down.
 Provisions averaged higher as re- suit of higher quotations on hogs. Most of the buying was for shorts. Winter packing was figured as $2,56S,000 short compare dwith last year. Close:
 Corn: May, $1.27A.
 Oats: March 91ssc; May, S91sc.
 Pork: May, $4S.35.

TELLS
 If SOMME DRIVE
 AND VAR EFFORT

Sergeant Mitchell, who is in this city iu the interest of British recruiting work, delivered d most interesting talk to the pupils of the high school, Tues day.
 Mitchell has served with the Canadi- ans in France for IS months. being fin ally wounded and sent home as inca pacitated for service in the trenches. Now he is doing loyal work in the re- cruiting department.
 In his talk to the pupils, Sergeant Mitchell described life in France and army life in general. He told how the Canadians, responding to the call of duty, mobiliZed and transported 30,0O0 fully equipped soldiers to England and 10 France within the space of a few months. He told of various kinds of artillery, their uses and effects. He told of life on a transport, in the trenches and in training camps.
 In speaking of the manner in which the Canadians took the war, he said:
 We felt that we were being treated 10 some pretty trough work in the training camps, but later on that sort of life seemed heavenly when we had to suffer the hardships of trench life"
 Sergeant Mitchell told of the journey across the Atlantic in a transport. "The men, in their sleeping quarters" he said made a solid mass of human- ity. stretching from one side of the ship to the other. And the rats had habit of running around the border of the quarters, occasionally taking it into their heads to cut across, walking bodily over the miserable sleepers."
 After reaching England, Mitchell and the rest of his comrades were soon sent to that famous region in Belgium, Ypres. Here they became acquainted with real trench life. A year later he was transferred to the region of the Somme. later to take part in the great advance at that sector.
 He told how, during the lombard - ment just previous to the great ad- vance along the Somme, the men were not unnerVed so much by the explosion of the cannon and the bursting of the shells as by the gruesome shriek and moan of the passing projectiles. He also described the different sounds produced by the various kinds of shells as they passed through space, and de- scribed their terrible work when di- rected upon c trench full of Germans.
 The method of advance, by schedule was taken up in detail and explained 10 the assembly pupils. He told how the men advanced upon the opposing forces by schedule. just keeping behind the range of fire of their own artillery
 He also told of the manner in whicf the stores of ammunition were kept out of sight of the enemy by stalking the shells in the form of army huts anG covering them with camouflaged tar paulins. He declared that at times ht had seen enough of these stacks pileC near each other to appear as a smal village in the eyes of enemy airmen.
