Germans Finally Yield
and Sign Renewal of
Allied Terms.

Paris, Feb. 17.-Marshal Foch, this
afternoon. informed the supreme council
of the acceptance by the Germans of the
conditions for a renewal of the armis-
tice.
The signing took place at 6 o'clock,
Sunday evening, on board Marshal
Foch's private car at Treves.
This ayerts what promised to be a
rather critical situation. as il had been
reported that the Germans might persist
in carrying out their intimations of a
refusal to sign.
The new terms. while still withheld,
are understood to restrict German oper-
ations against Poland within certain
fixed lines. thus removing the danger
of a military clash. and 1T the same time
opening access between the interior of
Poland and the Baltic sea.

COLD BEACH DOCTOR
URGES RELEASE OF
GEORGE CHENOWETH

A plea for the early release OF
George Chenoweth from the state hos
pital for the insane is made by DR.. F
J. Schliemann of Gold Beach, in let.
ter received by Attorney General
Brown. who declares himself to be with
out any jurisdiction in the matter
Chenoweth, member of the last state
legislature, was acquitted Of man
slaughter charge on the grounds OF
insanity and committed to the state
institution by the circuit court of Cur
ry county. He is now deained in the re
ceiving ward of the state hospital
where he is kept under close scrutiny
by officials to determine whether OF
not his mental condition will justify
his detention in the institution.
f'The character of the man is well
shown when the prosecution in an in
quiry brought out his statement that
he did not agree with his counsel that
he was insane,' the letter reads.
DR.. Schliemann declares that he has
examined insane people for 40 years
past and is unable to detect any symp-
toms of insanity in Chenoweth.
"a regard him as absolutely honest,
absolutely upright in thought and ac-
ton; man that would not tell a lie
on the witness stand even to save his
own life,' he continues. The letter
concludes with the declaration that de
tention in the hospital would " simply
be injuring him without helping any
one.p

AMERICAN TROOPS
LIVING in BOX CARS

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
on the Vologda Railroad, Nov. Is, via
London, Dec. 80 Correspondence OF
y the Associated Press) .-When operat-
ing through this thinly-populated for
est and tundra region along the rail-
way leading from Archangel to Vo-
logda, the American troops fighting
the Bolsheviki on the North Russian
front are living, when free from
trench and blockhouse duty, in tiny
Russian freight cars.
In this they are initiating the Rus
sian soldiers, who, since the revolu-
ton, have commandeered freight cars
wherever they found them and re-
modelled them for dwellings.
When the box cars are fitted up
with stoves they are known as top
lachas." They are not particularly
warm in zero weather, but welcome
change from the cold trenches in the
snow.
The forests here are dotted with
small blockhouses, built almost on
the model of the blockhouse forts OF
the old American wars with the In
dams, but have the added advantage
of being fairly shrapnel-proof.
The fighting down along the rail-
way line from the north has been,
since it's beginning last August, COM
bination of modern warfare, with
trenches and modern arms, and OF
bush fighting, wherein surprise at
tacks in the weeds figured promi-
nently.

TAHITIL0SES
MANY NATIVES
BY INFLUENZA

PAPEET, Island of Tahiti, Jan.
(by maiD Three characters well
known to visitors here are no more,
as the result of the influenza cpl
demic. These victims of the plague
are LORNA, Tail Salmon and Tiural.
For fifteen years LORNA was the
keeper of the little inn, the Tiare,
known to all who came to the island,
and which has been the temporary
home of people from all parts of the
world during their stay in Papeete.
Lorina's mother was a Tahitian and
her father was white, Captain Chap
man, but the Polynesian dominated
in her character. 1t was the kindli-
ness and generosity of this race which
attracted her guests to her.
Tati Salmon was statuesque and
picturesque figure in Tahitian life. Ed
ucated in Europe, he added to his
culture, pride of race and courtliness
of manner He generally was con-
coded to be the greatest authority of
his time on the ancient lore of the
islands, lore, now that he is dead,
destined, in the opinion of many, in
part to pass into oblivion. With his
passing have gone most, if not all,
of the older generation of natives who
treasured these things.
Tiurai was the great medicine man
of the islands. In his remedies the
natives had vastly more confidence
than those prescribed by any white
doctor. These were of the simplest
charcter-the water of the cocoanut,
infusions of certain herbs and the
like. He is credited with effecting
cures little short of miraculous. Many
whites of the island are said secretly
to have consulted him for the purpose
of being allied of ailments which baf-
fled physicians. No explanation ever
has been given of the secret of his
healing powers, which generally were
acknowledged
Many other unique characters OF
lesser note and fame have fallen vic
tins of the epidemic, and their loss
is keenly felt by the community.
