A PARsoN IN UNIFORM,
From the Boston Post.7


 The Post recently printed a poem from Rev. Allen Stockdale, now cap- tain in Uncle Sam's army over in France. The former Boston clergy man is very popular with the boys, and they called on him recently to write them a parody on the song, There's a Long, Long Trail" Here is one stanza of what he wrote.- There's long live line of Buddies A-facing Fritzie to-day, And their guns are full of death
 balls
 Going straight his way; They're sure death bunch of Bud
 dies,
 They know their duty full well And the trail they blaze for Fritzie Is long. long trail to hell. Just note please that he doesn't call them "Sammies They're Bud dies" which I take to be a diminutive form of 'brothers."

AMERICAN BLACKLIST
 SKATERS HUN PLANS

Chihuahua City, Mexico, July 13.- The American blacklist has shattered one of the German plans for the com mercial conquest of Mexico. Before the United States entered the war and prior to the last Mexican revolution German business organizations scat tered throughout northern Mexico gave evidence of the German intent ion to exploit the Mexican markets.
 One German wholesale hardware firm started to establish branches throughout the state more than 40 years ago, and, at the outbreak of the revolution, had branches in opera tion in Jaurez. Casas Grande, Santa Rosalie. Ojinaga and other places with a parent store here.
 While these houses were conduct ed on business lines, it is considered here as significant fact that all the German consuls and vice consuls Tor this part of Mexico were appointed from among the managers and assis- tant managers of this concern. Tn Juarez. Casas Grandes and aSnta Ro- salie the branch managers were also German vice consuls. the consul Ill Chihuahua City also heinz one Of the managers of the part store here. Ine vice consul ill Jaurez was decorateu Inv inc German Emperor for services rendered Germany on the border.
 When the revolutions started these German stores were the first to sui far ;because they were we'll stocked with wagons, harnss and other sup nlies needed by the revolutlonlsts' The Jaurez and Casas Grandes bran ches were footed and burned and now only the parent store remains Tn pus'- ness. .;,a l.. ao
 What the revolutionists failed to do to wreck these German stores the the American blacklist competed :. a. ust ,nt Germany. Now it is almost impos, pos, s;hle for the German firms to obtain smnn,ies and Mexican buyers fear 10 Sny from the blacklisted firms TOT fear of being placed on this blacklist snd I denied the privilge of importing from the United States.
