Hetteahouser Disappears

Il was also developed BY the Off
GERS thar Hettenhouser, who was
driving the fishswagon for Rice, had
taken the horse to the livery stable
somewhere between and O'Clock
in the afternoon The hour was not
definitely fixed The officers have
been unable 10 locate Hettenhouser
since that time and have communi-
Gated with neighboring towns in an
effort 70 capture him
Tie officers have theory that
IIeuenhouser returned to the Cord
rer home after he had driven the
team downtown, and that he knows
something Of the circumstances I'M
der which Mr. Cordner met his
death
This theory is based upon the
disappearance Of Hettenhouser, who.
Il without knowledge Of the affair,
would not have fled N this instance,
The officers say, fight was confes-
sion Of knowledge Of. the affair.
Murder Theory Believed
Prosecuting Attorney Noll and the
officers are working under the the
DRY that murder was committed
and are endeayoring t9 get at The
motive. They say tbeFe might have
been q drunken Rght, ID which two
three or even four persons were en-
gagged There is also the theory OF
robbery owing TO the fact that
Cordner was known TO have some
where between $50 and 500 on Mon
day. and had made no deposit in

The woman also says that when
she told Mr. Cordner that she intend
cd to 80 to Hagerstown that even
ing. be threatened TO kill her il she
did. She also says she knows moth
ing OF the lighted lantern found in
an upstairs room, or Of the lighted
lamp found IN the kitchen. The pres.
cnce Of the lantern and lamp, both
lighted, would strengthen the rob
barry theory; hut the officers point
cut that Mrs Leggett could have

/ The fact that one Of the doors

GERS say, would also tend to strength

Another thing the officers regard

Do Not Neglect II.

When you use medicated sprays,
atomizers and douches for your Ca
tarrh, you may succeed in unstopping
the choked-up air passages for the
time being, but this annoying condi-
ton returns, and you have TO do the
same thing over and over again.
Catarrh has never yet been cured
by these local applications. Have
you ever experienced any real benefit

He was the most conspicuous figure there as he made his way from ore end of the line to the other Men were falling all around him, but the general appeared to be unperturbed.
 A company commander who was present said that when the men saw their general walking calmly around the posts in the face of the enemy's fire. they were encouraged by his ex- ample to work all the harder at their task of digging themselves in. ''The general" he said. has gained the confidence Of every man, not only of my company, put other companies have never seen braver or cooler officer than him, fo rhe cannot know what fear is,
 His very gallant conduct had the greatest effect upon all ranks, and it was largely owing to his personal courage and example that his com mand held on to the shellhole line in spite of the heaviest fire It was generally agreed that by his presence in the front line at such a critical time, General Coffin saved the situa- tion.

TROOPS IN FRANCE ENJOY VACATIONS
Between Three and Five Hun dred Daily Depart on Gen. eral Leave in Department of Savoie.

AIX-LES-BAINS, March 1. (Corres- pondence of The Associated Press)- Between 300 and 800 American sol. diers are arriving or leaving here each day on special trains. Smaller num- bers are entering and leaving the towns of Chambrey, Challes-les-FauX snd other places in the Department of Savcie. which has been selected as the first great leave center of the -Ameri- can army. These soldiers are Ameri- ca's first 'permissionaires" or general leave. All of the first arrivals have been members of the first expedition to reach France and likewise the first to see active service in the trenches.
 The question of taking care of men on leave has been one of the most om- portant problems with which the Un:t- ed states army has had to deal. After consulting with representatives of the Young Mems Christian Association and ether welfare organizations it was decided to experiment with the plan of selectin in turn various interesting places in France to which the mer could be sent General orders were then issued granting each officer and man in France leave of seven days, exclusive of travel time, once every four months. Free transportation is provided to men who spend their leave in centers selected by the army Leave to Paris and other cities in France, outside the leave area, is only provid- ed in exceptional cases.

OFFICERS FACE
 DANCERS WITH
 MEN IN TRANCE
Generals and Staffs Do Not Enjoy Mansions and Lead Troops From Behind Lines In Great Conflicts.

BEHIND THE BRITISH LINES, IN FRANCE, March 7.-CCorrespondence of The Associated Press)-The idea that generals and staff officers live in mansions and lead their regiments from behind" does not apply to the British army, as anyone can testify who has spent any considerable time in the war zone in France. Staff rank is no passport to safety, least of all in these days, when the belt of the danger area is many miles wide and over vast areas of shelterless and desolated countryside the best cover that can be hoped for is the ruins of an old rugout or the crumb- ling cup of a shell hole.
 A concrete illustration of the fact that the senior officers are as ready to face the dangers of the battlefield as their comrade sof the rank and file, is found in the recent award of the Victoria Cross to an officer who holds a high command in the field, Brigadier General Clifford Coffin of the Roval Eneineers General Coffin was already the holder of the prized Distinguished Service Order, but the award of the V. C. is made specifi- cally "as a bright example of how commander, by his own fearlessness and devotion to duty, can inspire his men to face the most trying situa- tion."
 Risk of Runners
 One of the chief difficulties in any attack is the maintenance of com munications. As soon as an attack commences, the enemy drops a curtain of shells between tie advancing troops and their supporters, to prevent mes sages getting back Or rifles comins up. Telephone wires are cut by shell fire and runners take tramendoue risks while making their way through the barrage.
 Knowing this. General Coffin de- cided that it was his duty to be in such a position as would enable him to get very quick and accurate in- formation of the way in which the at tack progressed With this object, he established his headquarters in a shell hole, which, although exposed to heavy sniping an dartillery fire, had the advantage of being close to the front lines.
 Later, hearing that the advance of his men had been checked by very heavy machine-gun and rifle fire from the front and right flank, and that they were digging themselves in an a shell-hole line on the. forward slope Of a ridge, be determined to go for ward personally an dinspct his posts.
 Accompanied by 9 orderly he went up the new line, where he found that owing to serious casualties among the officers, and the deadly fire that was being concentrated upon the positions, the ground that had been won was in grave danger of being lost
