BODY OF YOUNG MAN
Is FOUND in DITCH
ALL THIS WEEK
lev MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED w,sg

Milwaukee, Wis, Dec. 21.-A post
mortem examination of the body of a
well dressed man about 80 years old,
found in ditch two miles south OF
the city this morning was followed by
a report to the coroner by physicians
that death was caused by suffoca-
ton and fractured skull.
A brick clotted with blood was
found q short distance from tn ebody.
A working contract found on the
body was made out to William Ro-
maiZewski.
The fact that no traces of a strug-
gle could be found leads the police to
believe the man probably was muir
dered while riding in an automobile
and his body thrown, into the ditch.
With the finding of woman's
daintily perfumed and embroidered
handkerchief in sone of the mans
pockets, the police are working on the
theory that "a woman has some
knowledge Of the crime.

SPY ROUNDED UP
BY TRAP SHOOTER
Former Top Gun Solves Cause
of Mysterious Happenings in
Toul Sector.
GERMANS WERE TIPPED OFF
Sergeant Sees Pigeons on Wing,
Dreams Of Days at Traps, Grabs
Shotgun and Bags Five-Havs
Code Messages Attached.
BY M FOSTER.

Paris.-There is a certain United
States signal service sergeant up In
the Toul sector at the front who has
been able Of late to combine a little
pleasure with his business. The CEN
sor won't let one tell the sergeant's
name, but without revealing any MILL
tary information 1t may be said that
before the wal the sergeant was rated
as one Of the top guns at w~ell-known
t~rap-shooting club in the States.
There is not much trap-shootlng just
now in France. They are not crack
ing AWAY at live birds, either. But the
sergeant got his pigeon shooting just
the same.
The particular front In which the
sergeant operates Is infested with Ger
man spies.
All sorts Of things were happening.
A tramp battery, n Of those par
ticular guns that whisks up. slams a
few at the Fritzles. then slides out
on the jump, found itself being shelled
the instant 1t lined up for a shot.
Again, every time there was n troop
movement, the movement was antici-
pated by the Boche. Beside that, ev-
cry time q body Of u men got to-
gether for any purpose whatever, the
Germans shelled them with everything
they had, big guns included.
Tipping OFF the Hun.
Now, the Hun doesn't use his big
guns unless he knows what he's shoot
ing at. How he learned, however. was
pretty evident. Some n back of our
lines was tipping him off.
The signal service sergeant was the
first TO detect how 1t was done. His
squad was repairing signal wires back
of the trenches. The sergeant halted
In his work and gazed skywards. A
pigeon was going over his head. The
sergeant watched 1t idly, calculating
MS he stood there how far he'd lead IL
with a 12-gauge. Then with a sigh
he went to laying n wire again.
A few minutes later the sergeant
stopped again. Another pigeon had
risen from the wood. But a few min
utes later, when a third pigeon rose
from the wood, the former t~rap-shooter
tarried no longer. A half hour later he
bolted into the quartermaster's depart
ment, clicked a salute and spoke hur-
riedly.
"Gimme q shotgun ne demanded.
shotguns are a regular part of GER
tain Quartermaster's supplies. Soon
the sergeant might have been seen
standing behind a hedgerow gazing to-
ward the nearby wood. Presently he
was seer to stiffen. at the same time
murmuring pull" The 12-gauge
swung briefly In an arc; a crack and
a crumpled ball Of feathers came tum-
bling toward earth. To make sure, the
sergeant gave 1t a second barrel JUST
before 1t hit the earth.

Father Duffy Of the 69th
LaudS the Work Of Y. M. c. A.

PARIS. Oct. 10 (By Mail. Father
Francis Patrick Duffy, best known and
loved American chaplain in France,
after months of continuous campaign
ing with what was the old s~ixty-ninth
New York, recently met an old ac-
quaintance, formerly q New York
newspaper nan The latter tried to
induce Father Duffy to tell some of
his experiences under fire OF interest
to his friends in Manhattan, but the
famous chaplain had what he consid-
cred a more important matter to dis
cuss. In mentioning that the Liberty
Loan drive was to be followed by the
United Wal Work campaign, the cor
respondent asked Father Duffy what
he. the Catholic chaplain of a ninety
per cent Irish regiment, thought of
the work of tho Y. NJ. C. A. In
France.
II do not know what we would do
without It," answered Father Duffy
promptly. MY observation of tho
work of the Y. NJ. c. A. has been that
ii is wonderfully efficient. It's co-or-
dination with other war work is be-
yond criticism. Every American
should give 1t financial and moral sup
port
Chaplain Duffy voiced the spirit of
unity which has knitted the Y. NJ. c..
A, Y. w. c. A, X. of c., Jewish We'll
fare Board, American Library Asso-
citation and Salvation Army into one
body for service to our lighters in
France and identified these organlza-
tons with the National Catholic War
Council and War Camp Community
Service for work here.

UNCLE SANS RAILROAD
Getting Ready to Celebrate Its Com
pletion In Alaska

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondcnce.)
ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Oct. 22:-
Everybody in Seward, a hundred
miles south OF here at the head of
Resurrection Bay. is getting ready to
celebrate the arrival of the first pas
senger train from Anchorage on
Uncle Sans government railroad, the
first stretch of the route to Fairbanks
to reach completion.
Seward is the ocean end" of the
new line. Work is going ahead On
the road above Anchorage, which is
near the upper arm of Cook Inlet,
and below Fairbanks, the proposed
terminus Just ove the Alaska Range
and north of the Tanana, a branch Of
the Yukon river. The two gangs of
railroad builders are now 100 miles
apart.
Much of the winter traffic from in
terror Alaska will probably come out
over the line of the new road this
winter despite the, fact the steel is
connected, 1t is believed here. The
commission has gangs of men at
work marking a winter trail between
he two ends of the roads. Trains
will probably be operated from Fair
banks and Anchorage to the ends Of
the steel rails ali winter. Travellers
will ''mush" the intervening distance
on foot.
