PORTO R|CANS SEND
TONS OF JElL|ES
TO U.S.TRO0PS

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Nov. p.
Porto Rico has completed the ship
ment of 10000 glasses, about 81
tons, of guava jelly to the Red
Cross in France to be distributed
among the hospitals. The jelly
was made by the Porto Rico chap
ter of the American Red Cross and
sent to France as a contribution
from Porto Rico.
Last year the island Red Cross
made and sent to France about
tons of guava jelly and it was so
greatly appreciated that Charles
Hartzel, chairman of the the Porto
Rico chapter, recently received a
cable from national Red Cross
Headquarters at Washington saying
the supply in France was all gone.
and asking if any more was avail
able.
Ten thousand cases of jelly which
the Red Cross had ready for ship
ment to france recently were sunk
at the pier at New York.

WAR STAMP SALE
WILL Be BOOSTED

The following letter regarding
war savings stamps has been re-
ceived by j.. Emmett Walsh, direc-
tor Of the county council of defense,
from H. A. Lennon, director of
the state council:
Reno, New, Nov. IA, 1918.
Judge ]. Emmett Walsh,
Director Esmeralda County
Council of Defense, Gold
field, New.
Dear Judge Walsh:
We'll, the worst of it seems to
be over with the signing of the
armistice terms, and Nevada thus
far has come through with flying
colors in every drive and in an
swer to every request, save only
one. All of this magnificent rec
ord has been due to the proverbial
patriotism of Nevadans, responding
to the country's needs as presented
t o them by the county councils of
defense. Your air-tight organiza-
ton and good old 'muscle-grease'
have put the state away over the
top, except for one little unfinish-
ed job, our large quota of war
savings stamps. Let's get in from
Thanksgiving to Christmas and
make it a clean slate.
I'VE set out, last December, to
raise $2,225,680 from the sale of
thrift stamps and war savings
stamps in Nevada. Cash sales to
date total $1,16O,O0O, and pledges,
including cash sales, amount to ST.
100000. Our job is now to see
that these are kept and that add
tional cash sales in December fill
out the quota and clear our state
record.
Through county and communi-
ty organizations we should be able,
during the first two weeks in De-
cember, to reach every church,
school, lodge, business house and
family in the county with an urg-
ent request that they get in and
hustle. There will be no wide
spread publicity or advertising
campaign, simply because the peo-
pie are tired of them and they are

HUGE AMOUNT
EXPENDED IN
SESSION
OF CONGRESS
Close Not Accompanied by Spec
tacular Features of Any
Kind
MANY IMPORTANT MEASURES
PASSED DURING SESSION
Senator's Attack President for TAX
ing Over Cable and Express
Companies

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. a.
The second session of the Sixty
fifth, or war congress-, ended at 5
O'Clock yesterday. Since the third
and final session of this congress
will begin in IL days, or OIL Dec. 2,
adjournment was devoid of any of
the spectacular features usually ac-
companying the ending of sessions.
Little business was transacted
in either house. In the senate
there was a debate, marked by an
attack on the president by Watson
of Indiana, Sherman of Illinois and
Kellogg of Minnesota, republicans,
who voiced objection to his action
in taking over the cable and ex-
press companies. Senator Reed of
Missouri, democrat, also vigorous
ly opposed the plan for a league
of nations.
During the day congress formal
ly completed and sent to the presi-
u6uI the Olll III wartime PAOhlOi
ton, effective July l. The presi-
dent promptly signed the measure.
For length and bulk of appropria-
tions and the number of important
legislative measures the session just
closed is regarded by leaders as
.unprecented.
At this session war was declared
on Austria-Hungary, and the mem
bers also saw a victorious end to
hostilities.
Appropriations passed aggregat-
ed $4,000 600, 900, making a to-
tai of this congress of more than
$4,000, OOO, 600. Legislation pass
ed included authorizing billions for
Liberty bonds, the creation of a
war finance corporation, govern
ment control of telegraphs, tele-
phones and cables, and the extern
sion of the army draft law to men
between IS and As.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
IN FRANCE, Nov. 20. - Wound
ed and taken prisoner by the Ger
mans and for two days kept in a
ugout on the side Of a hill which
was under shell fire alternately by
the Americans and then by the en-
envy. two American privates were
rescued by their comrades after As
hour of fighting. Owing to cen
sorship regulations regarding
wounded soldiers it is not possible
to give the names of the two men.
The privates we're captured in
the region of Chatel Chehery,
along the eastern edge of the Ar
gonne forest, just before Chatel
Chehery was captured by the Amer
leans. While the Germans were
endeavoring to decide what to do
with the wounded men the Ameri-
a artillery opened up and the
Germans determined in a hurry to
remove them to a nearby dugout,
and four big Germans crowded in
beside them.
For two days the artillery, first
of the Americans and then of the
Germans, swept the hill, and so
intense was the Smelling that even
the Germans did not attempt to
escape.
On the third day the American

TWU AMERICAN PRIVATES have
NARROW ESCAPE FROM Death

infantry began going forward and
when the crest of the hill was
reached there was a rush of the
Americans to the place where their
two comrades had been wounded in
an encounter while making a recon
Nuisance in the early morning.
Leading the men was Captain How
ell Foreman, of Atlanta, Ca, who
had little hope of finding the two
men alive.
One of the Americans heard a
sound from within the dugout and
n of the detachment, in German,
ordered those on the inside to sur-
render, threatening to shower the
dugout entrance with hand eccn-
AIDES at once. The reply that came
back was in perfectly good Amer
lean, and four husky Germans
stepped from the cave with their
hands above their heads. y me
ment afterward the wounded Amer
leans had come into thei" own
again. Despite German machine
gunners firing from the edge CT
the forest and from commanding
heights to the northwest the Amer
leans were carried back e the
hill from which they had come
more than two days before, the
four German prisoners marching
beside them.
