London.-American bombing squad
rons are now bombing the Rhine val

pilots and observers, like their breth-
rem Of the royal air force, enter into
this sport" with the same spirit that
has made them famous on the baseball
diamond or football gridiron of their
own American colleges.
A young American aviator has just
told of trip over the German lines
and back behind into German territory.
The formation in which the American
airmen flew consisted of II big bomb
Ing machines, each of which carried
1,G00 pounds Of high explosives, three
machine guns and three men.

machine, checked the bombs, made

waiting for the starting flash. Soon
the signal came and we were off.
For twenty minutes we climbed, I'M
til the earth was just black blot. An
other twenty-five minutes and we were
over the trenches, with the searchers
cropping about in the mists below us.
The big guns crashed away cont nu-
ously, and we could see the explosions
from where we scared high above
them. No sooner had we crossed the
lines than the Germans started firing
at us with their anti-aircraft guns.
Once German searchlight got right
on us with its beam of light. We fired
couple of rounds of machine-gun
fire at the Germans who were Aanuing
the searchlight, and 1t went out.
Far below us we could see the
lights of locomotive. Finally we
reached our objective. According to
plan, we throttled our motors and
glided toward the earth to get nearer
our target. 1t seemed curiously quiet.
Then suddenly the earth seemed to
open below us. Seventeen searchlights
were turned on US by the Germans.
and their shafts of light swept all
about us. The anti-aircraft guns
made a wall ahead of us. The high
explosive shells burst on every side
of us, and the green-fire balls swayed
and spiraled as they tried to set US on
fire. The American machines went
straight on, with never a waver or
turn. There were so many crashes
that l thought more than once that we
were hit. We kept straight on.

PRISONERS ARE
BADLY TREATED

London.--A corporal in the Lincoln
shires, who was taken prisoner In
April, 1917, and who succeeded In es-
Gaping from the Huns clutches In
June, 1918, has given very interesting
account of his experiences. He Is
man of the highest character and his
story Is, therefore, worthy Of credence.
He was captured April IL, 1917, near
Alglcourt, and was at first taken to
the German headquarters, behind the
line. He was questioned, but refused
to give any information. He was
then sent to working party behind
the German lines at place called
Maretz, and was employed on ration
dump. The party was about 16 kllo-
meters from the line; they could see
the British shells bursting a mile or so
away, but the corporal never heard Of
any casualties among the prisoners.
There was commandant In charge
Of the camp, and the second In COM
mand was feldwebel. Both these Of
ficials treated the prisoners very badly.
The first day that they were in camp
the commandant came, and the field
webel shouted "Achtung." The men
did not know what he meant and did
not therefore spring to attention, as
they should have done. The field
webel thereupon struck them with a
whip. The sentrles also treated them
very badly.
Picks UP Food--shot.
When the prisoners were returning
from work the Frenchwomen used to
The Jasper news., 1918-11-21

throw them food and other things. The
men knew that 1t was forbidden TO
step out of the ranks to pick these
things up, but they were so hungry
that they often broke the rules. The
corporal saw a man shot by sentry
FOR stepping out Of the ranks In this
way. He was killed instantly, the bull
let passed right through him, went
through another mans pocket and
blew the finger, or two fingers, off a
third man. There were two other men
shot In the same way; the corporal
saw them both brought into the lager.
The prisoners got no food from Eng
land while they were on this working
party, and they were not allowed to
write home.
Toward the end Of May, 1917, the
corporal was transferred to Minister
IL, In Germany, and a week later he
was sent on to Mlnden, where he re-
manned six weeks.
The treatment at Minden was not
bad, and in this respect It differed
from the food, which was very bad
Indeed. A five-pound loaf of black
bread was divided among Is men; this
was their bread ration for the day.
They had coffee In the morning and
thin, watery kind of soup at noon.
Once week they had fish and a small
quantity Of potatoes. At $50 In the
evening they had what they called
sandstone" 1t was Just like eating
sand. Sometimes they had ground
maize, and one night out Of three they
had coffee.
Works In munltlon Factory.
From Minden the corporal went on
working party to Harrington, where
he remained three weeks. He was
working In a munItion factory, unload.
ing iron and coal, but the prisoner
had nothing to do with the machinery.
There were ten Englishmen In the
working party. Al Russians and four
/ Frenchmen. The treatment was not
good, and the work was very hard.
At the beginning the guards over
the prisoners were soldiers, but during
the last four months that the corporal
was in Germany they had been re-
placed by elderly civilians. The guards
told the prisoners TINT there had been
riots in Berlin just after Christmas,
1917, and several people had been shot.
The guards said that all the best men
had gone and that II was shameful to
think of the kind of men that they
were using in the army.
AS has already been said, this cor
poral is particularly intelligent man.
He is quite ready to admit good treat
ment when good treatment has been
given to him, and he has contented
himself with giving the bare facts of
the case without comment.

NEW DOUBLE BILL
 OPENS AT FOX'S

One of the strongest double-fea- ture bills ever presented in the city opens at Foxs theater today, present. ing the two most popular of the younger masculine stars that have won the public heart They are George Walsh, the lillabIe chap from the Fox studios, and Harold Lock wood, the flashing young leading man who is the idol of ladies all over the country. Walsh comes back in the most brilliant of his achievements, a daring, ripping, five reel Whirl-wind called "Blue Blood and Red" It is one of those rapid fire western stor- ios that GeorSie feels right at home in and he certainly puts over some mighty hot stuff for an hour and a quarter. Lockwood appears in his latest big Metro Wondcr-play, en- titled 'The Averaging Trail" which is a pulsating drama of thrills and sus- pense. Lockwood is never unintereSt- ing, and has always been particularly fortunate in securing good scenarios to work from, but whoever wrote his present piece, "The Averaging Trail" certainly surpassed himself, for it is unrivalled for interest and originality. It is a story of revenge-but of a new kind of revenge, which is secured in an unheard of way. Many other short subjects, comedies, etc, will complete the program.
 The immortal French classic, Madame Du Barry, a historical novel of the corrupt court of King Louis the Fifteenth, in which Theda Bara makes her appearance. Many and strange are the tales that have been whispered about the court of this particular Louis, and the strang- est of them all has been incorporated in "Du Barry, which is the story of peasant girl who rose to be tho favorite of a king. The pictured yer sion was produced with all the lavish expense and religious attention to de- tail and historical accuracy that in- variably marks a William Fox produc- ton, and Miss Bara's efforts surpass anything that she has hitherto ac- cOmplished.
