TOURS, CENTRAL FRANCE, Oct. 24- Correspondence of The Associa' ted PleSSl- Along the railway routes and the great national highways ol erancl one sees mile after mile of the new telegraph and telephone lines ae; up b. the American army, with squads O.; Iincmen in khaki stringing nc wires and laying out new lines. The telegraph offices all through ti" war zones are crowded with khaki uniformed operators and q personal oi American offericerS and enlisted men.
 1t k one of the extensive systems suddenly installed on huge Scal' with the coming Of the Americans, spreading vast wire network over al France and realizing government op eration of telegraph and telephones on foreign soil even before it was un- der way on home soil.
 This military nerve system is no, alone telegraph and telephone lines, but cables lines across the channel c that American headquarters in Fran. co can be in immediate intercourse with American officials in London; wireless receiving and sending pIants for detecting enemy exchanges ana carrying on our own radio work; couricrS and dispatch riders; weathe. observers to warn when storms may impede military operations, and al those modern methods of rapid com munication which have become indi- Spensable to warfare.
 It is a complete linking together of the army, front and rear, headquart CTS, staff and line, keeping the com. manding officers in consistent touch with every division and every othei branch in the huge field of operations The movement of troops and the act ual fighting of battles are largely d pendent on this highly deycopc army communication, which not only joins our own army but keeps up the Jason of vast united command
 It is something over 800 miles from the French coast to the battle line in eastern France, and throughout thus distance there is a complete system Of 10 or 20 wire American telegraph lines, linking the seaports with the front and also spreading through tho vast ratification of warehouses. camps. hospitals, construction shops and military establishments of all sort extending from the ports inland to the firing line.
 There IS another multiple line run ming southward toward the Mediter- ranean and over to the Spanish from tier.
 These are the trunk lines, extending clear across France and, besides these main arteries, every division and branch of the army has it's own telc-

l.iNCOLN'S LETTER TO WAR-BEREFT MOTHER
 AND ONE BY KAISER

The following is the famous letter written by President Lincoln to Mrs. Bixby during the Civil War:
 Dear Madam: I have been shown in the files of the War Department statement of the Adjutant General of Mas sachusetts that you are the mother of five sons who have died gloriously on the field of battle. I feel how weak and fruitless must be any words of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from rendering to you the consola- tion that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save. pray that our Heavenly Father may as- suage the anguish of your bereavement and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.
 The following is letter written by the Kaiser to Frau Meter of Oldenburg few days ago:
 His Majesty, the Kaiser hears that you have sacrificed nine sons in the defense of the Fatherland in the present war. His Majesty Is immense ly gratified in this fact and in recognition is pleased to send you his photograph with frame and autograph sigma ture.

BIG DAMAGE CLAIM
FILED With COUNCIL
w. r. WALL WANTS 81, 261.OO
FROM CITY, ALLEGING INJU-
RY FROM A DITCH.

At the July meeting of the city
council Attorney W. H. Gurr filed for
w. R. Wall claim against the city
for $1,261.0O, for alleged damages
arising from an open ditch which
runs for distance of 65 yards on
the east line of the property where
he lives. The ditch in question is in
part the one from Lee street to
Fourth avenue, and has existed for
many years.
Mr. Wall charges that the sewer
for carrying water across johnson
street is about eight inches higher
than the ditch at that place, causing
water to become stagnant, thereby
breeding mosquitoes and offensive
odors and causing damage to the
health and inconvenience to his fam
lily and the death Of some livestock.

Gloomy Russian Writers.

According to Charles Gray Shaw in
the North American Review, Russian
fiction Is not gloomy so much because
1t represents actual Russian conditions,
but because Russian writer's are by
nature gloomy. At least that he be-
lieves to be true Of Dostoievsky, the
subject Of his article. for he says:
SIT is q terrible thing to fall into
the hands Of the living God, but that
is what happened to Fydor Dostoiev-
sky. 1t was not Russia, vast. fantas-
tic, terrible, but real existence as such
which wrung from his soul his tales
Of self-inquisition. Reality has caught
me upon hook this chance express
sion in one Of his romances Of reality
Is the confessed secret Of the anguish
ed author. Dostoievsky is Russia, and
the Russian soul Is dark place Hav-
ing said this Of his own land, Dostoiev-
sky, without playing upon Amiers pref
ty epigram. the landscape is a state
of the soul.' proceeds to show us how
the outer darkness pervades his own
soul. he knows not why. but at dusk
there comes over him an oppressive
and agonizing state Of mind difficult to
define. but recognizable In the form Of
mystical terror"
