New York. Sept. 1e.-From A cold
marble slab In New York's dim
lighted morgue. they took the body
OF a young girl to an unmarked grave
in the Potter's Field the other morn
ing. She had been dragged from the
Hudson and her features still showed
traces Of unusual beauty. No one
came to claim her although for sew
eral years she had been a well known
frequenter OF table d'hotes-feeding on
the incense Of worship and nattering
tongues.
She had drunk deep Of Bohemia's s
cup and found II bitter. The pleas
ures Of folly and unchecked license
became wormwood and all the dreams
OF youth which she brought to the
big city from a little town In the
West became dead-roses.
Her last night was signalized by
lightness of manner as she liter
ally sang her swan-song over the win

Thirties. She knew that IL was her
last night and that the lure of false
freedom would beckon her no more.
The brave spirits were surprised at
her mood. She scoffed at their alb
surd theories-theories she heretofore
captained. She Knocked the lights and
music and sights OF a city and cursed
the day she left her small town home
and took up the thin trail of crimson
stained tears.
At the top-pitch OF her TRADE
against The City and what II stood
for she broke into lifting song about
glades, dim woodlands and the serene
blue sky and the roses OF Maytime.
The crowd looked on with amused
misunderstanding deeper OF the red
wine and thickening the barraSe Of
cigarette smoke. Some Of them
tapped their heads significantly and
pressed imaginary needles 10 their
wrists-Bohemia's queen had fallen
for dope"
She saw what they meant and
smiled. Just before the first streak
OF dawn she left them.
Goodbye" she sang to them as she
pinned on her tam and departed.
I've had enough. I'm through"
She took a taxicab and spent her
last bit of money to take her within
two blocks of the river. Then she

AUSTRIANS REPORT
HUN SUPPLIES LOW
German Morale Ebbs with Munition
Decrease.

With the First American Army,
Sept. 1s.-There is sharp antagonism
between the German and Austrian
troops. Austro-Hungarian soldiers
who were captured by us in Les
Eparges bitterly complained that the
Germans failed TO re-enforce them and
provide them with ammunition. 1t is
no exaggeration to say that German
morale is lower than ever. German
army equipment. Is deteriorating.
Even the officers uniforms are
patched"
A single American division captured
seventy-two guns out of an artillery
park of ninety, near Jaulny. The
same division took l50 gas projectors
