Lufbery, U. S. Ace, Has
Poetic Death Jumps to
Earth to Land In Garden

Chicago. July 14-The poetic end of
the life Of Raoul Lufbery, the famous
american 'ace," is described in a
letter from Aviator Walter Flanni-
gan to his father, Charles Flanagan,
former police sergeant here. Flan-
nigan has been in France six
months.
''Lufbery made a great fight, but
finally jumped from the machine at
an altitude of about $500 feet" he
writes. "He landed in a garden Of
flowers, and a woman that lived
there recognized him. and placed
lighted candles about his body.
The English-speaking German
prisoners are placed in our sector.
a German captain was astonished
at the number of American soldiers.
He said the people of Germany
are told that only a few Yankees
are in France and that the troop
ships of the Americans are all be-
ing sunk, and that New York has
lcen taken and a German army is
marching on Washington to take
President Wilson prisoner.
Say, we will have old Kaistr
BiH in the zoo in Lincoln Park
next year.
We are eating well, get fresh
meat and everything down to sweet
cookies. We are even getting real
american coffee and canned cream.
How Is that for our good old
Uncle Sam"

CAPT. BIDDLE
SAYS HE SAW
EYES GOUGED
Tells Sunday Class the Huns
Tortured Captured
Marines.

Marines lighting in France have
come to realize the necessity for the
fight to the death spirit their officers
have tried to instin into them" de-
clared Capt. Anthony Drexel Biddle
to the members OF the Vaughn Class
of the Calvary Baptist Church yester-
day morning.
In order to put the blood on the
bayonet' spirit in the men the officers
curse them numerically. But one
night the Germans came over in a
fog into the sector where We were.
and held the position for twenty-four
hours. At the end of that time a
large force of our splendid Marines
drove them back with great slaughter.
When the boys had time to look about
after retaking the sector, they under
stood what their officers had meant
for scores Of cur braye American boys
had been tortured all about that sec
tor by the Germans. Their fayorite
method had been to strap the boys
down, gouge out their eyes and drag
forth their brains through their eye
sockets. This I personally saw, and
what I have mentioned Is but a frac-
ton of the horrors of fiendishness to
which our boys are subjected.
This righteous warfare must con-
tinue to the bitter end, for It is our
task to restore a realization that de-
cency and civilization shall prevail,
and that the only permanent and per-
feet rule in human government is that
Of the Kingdom OF Christ. for this
Is the purpose of the awful conflict
now being waged."

ALBANIA DRIVE
MIGHT RENEW
FRONT
May Replace Siberian Ad-
venture-Italians Save
Albania.

London. July 1i.--There are indica-
lions that the allied drive in Albania
was undertaken to take the place Of
the much-discussed military interven-
tion in Serbia.
The allied military advisers have de-
cided. it is said. that the plan for
reconstructing the Eastern front
along the 5000 miles of railroad lead
ing from Vladivostok Is not feasible.
Therefore Gen. Foch has turned his
eyes to another avenue Of approach
and decided to reconstruct the South
ern and Eastern fronts by strategic
line extending from Albania up across
the Jugo-Slav and Czecho-Slav states,
inimicable to Germany, that extend
to the Russian border.
This campaign will have the triple
effect Of bringing help to Russia re-
covering Albania and Serbia, ana
realizing Italy's aspirations toward
Italia Irredenta.''
Albania PROFITS.
Incidentally the italian offensive
has centered attention on Albania
which is now being cleared Of the
enemy Just as it has been saved eco
nomically by Italy. II Is the one
country in Europe which has profited
by being a seat of war.
The italian governments occupation
of the country has been a work OF
civilization, not Of war. Millions OF
dollars have been spent In improving
the natural advantages Of the little
nation, In saving its people from
starvation, and undermining the coun-
try.
Several hundred miles of roads have
been built, piers have been construct
ed In the harbor Of Avlona, the cap
ital. barracks and hospitals built,
telegraph, telephone and wireless sta
tions installed, railways, bridges, tun-
nels and bridges constructed In that
part OF the country occupied by the
Italians.
Lands Reclaimed.
In addition the Italians have re-
claimed thousands of acres Of marsh
lands near the sea and made them
produce food. Courts OF Justice have
been established with Albanian Judges
where possible. and public schools
have been opened. In short, Italy
has given the Albanians food, employ
ment. education and security. and
is now engaged in recovering for them
the territory under the heel Of the
invader.

ThreefoId Purpose.
There is q threefold purpose fn these
taxes; the first obvious purpose is to

taxes will result in less waste by in
ducing more economical use OF COM
modities thus taxed and result in a
greater margin Of earnings over ex-
penditures, which savings can be in
vested in Liberty bonds; the third
purpose is to reduce demand for ar
ticles thus taxed. so that materials
equipment and labor which otherwise
would be employed to produce these
commodities will naturally turn to-
ward more essential employment.
The suggested consumption taxes
include tea, 20 cents q pound; coffee.

tax on gasoline is suggested.
As a subject for discussion and
comment from the members OF ths
