MEN LONG FOR ACTION Grriiiiins Cry leiiance to Kneuijr. General Enjoys Confidence of Ilia Men rrincefcS Patricia Keguiicnt Proves lcttle. OTTAWA. OnU March 21. Experi ences of the Canadian troops at the front are detailed in the first account by the official Canadian recorder with tlie contingent abroad, transmitted by cable to the Minister of Militia from the secretary of the War Office In London tonight. "As Lord Kitchener has said, says the recorder, "the Canadian troops have now. after gaining some further prelim inary experience, taken their turn as a division in the trenches. Nothing sen sational has happened to them. It has not up to the present, been their for tune to be swung forward in a desper . ate attack or cling in defensive tenac ity to the trenches which the Germans have resolved to master. There have, of course, been casualties. One does not enter or leave trenches without cas ualties, for the sniper never fails to claim his dally toll, but the trench ex periences of the Canadians have not up to the present time been eventful, as one Judges of incidents in this war. Artillery Gives CMd Aceaunt. Our men have, of course, made the acquaintance of 'Jack Johnson' without liking him. for he is not likable. They endure him with as much constancy as a brave man needs. Nor, Indeed, have cur own artillery failed to do more, and even more, than hold their own. Our infantry were not especially en cased in the fighting at Neuve Cha pel le. but our artillery played its part In that triumph of artillery science which preceded the British attack. "There were not a few of our infantry who were longing for that order. They think that the Germans have presumed upon a slight acquaintance. For on the first night on which our men were put Into the trenches, the Germans began to call out, -Come out, you Canadians; come out and fight." "When the Germans' flares In the trenches lighted up the space between the two lines. 'There are the Northern lights' was the comment of Canada, and Northern lights' they have remained to this day. General Anderson Is Popular. "It would be evidently impertinent to ay more of the general officer com manding the force. General Anderson, than that he enjoys the most absolute confidence of the fine force he com mands. He trusts them and they trust bim. and it will be strange if their co-operation does not prove fruitful.' The official account, which is dated "In Flanders. March 28." explains that many facts are omitted because of mili tary expediency to prevent information of troop movements from reaching the belligerents on the other side of the trenches. Of the Princess Patricia regi ment it is said that "the battalion has proved itself worthy of fighting sido by side and on equal terms with the army of veterans and heroes which has held the trenches in the horrible Winter of Flanders." Toward the close the re corder said In reference to the entire Canadian contingent: "I may before concluding point out that the most severe military critics both in England and In France are loud in their admiration of the organizing power which is a non-military country has produced so fine a force in so short a time." HAMB1RGER MAN TRIES TO TALK TO VICE-PRESIDENT. Vancouver Barracks Vendor of Chopped Beef and Onions Goes to San Fran. Cisco, Only to Meet Police. SAX FRANCISCO, March 27. (Spe cial.) Insistence on communication with the police of San Francisco and that was alt. "Hamburger Shorty's" mother Is an Inmate of a New Jersey Insane asylum, and her son for some years has devoted himself assiduously to an attempt to se cure her freedom. When he read that the Vice-President would be in San Francisco Daniels came also and since his arrival the telephone wires to the Fairmont Hotel have been kept Incessantly busy with calls by "Hamburger Shorty" seeking an interview. Then late today "Hamburger Shorty" thought his hopes realized, for he found himself on one end of a telephone with the Vice-President on the other so he supposed. In reality the "Vice-President" was Detective Layne. who had been interested in the case by the hotel management and who scented a bomb plot. "A poor, harmless fellow, that means all right but doesn't know Bow to go about it." was his verdict. SOLDIERS SEE BAKER PLAY Troop A, in Vniform, Fills Theater for "Gcnessee of the Hills.' Troop A.

MEMEL IS LEFT IX CHAOS Germans Are Restoring Order and Retaliating in Russia. TILSIT. East Prussia, via London, March 26. The town and provincial authorities at Memel began today bring ing order out of the chaos wrought by the Russians last week. It is impossible to estimate the property damage and loss. The country from Memel eastward and northward to the Russian border has been devastated. The presence of a large body of sol diers at Memel and several war vessels In the harbor has done much to reassure the people that the Russians will not trouble them again, but in many quar ters the anxiety is still keen. The worry ceased somewhat today witn tne burial of 171 Russians who were killed when the Germans moved in. Fugitives traveling away from the Russian border with wagons loaded to their capacity are a familiar sight all over this section of East Prussia. The sufferings of these people were greatly increased today by a steady downpour of rain. AMSTERDAM, via London, March 26.

The Austrian press bureau eays that during the last week of the siege at Przemysl the active garrison numbered only 44,000 infantry and artillerymen, two-thirds of whom belonged to the lanasturm, ana that from this- total must be deducted a loss of 10,000 men incurred in the last sortie. Deprecating the Russian assertion that more than 100,000 prisoners were taken at the fall of Przemysl, the state, ment asserts that the Russians counted in their total 28DOO sick or wounded men and 45,000 drivers, grooms, work men, laborers and servants.

The director and the accompanist, R. J. Hutchison, shared In the honors. Miss Maude C. Ross, one of tne solo ists of the evening, sang as her first selection. Mattinata (Leoncavallo), her second, "Staendchen" (Richard Strauss) and her encore, "I Hear Tou Call ing Me." With sparkling gunsmne in ner inter pretation of "Summer Time" (Ward Stephens), and fine feeling in the "Tosca Prayer," Miss Katheryn Ensey showed the versatility of her art. Miss Marion Atwater was vivacious and her tones were especially sweet in "Spring's Awakening" (Sanderson) and a Florian Song (Godard). There was added beauty in her encore, "The Open Secret."

(Schu bert) and responded to an encore. Probably one of the finest numbers presented by the cherus -was "Vineta" (Abt). which, was full of strength, and offered an excellent opportunity for all parts to show the results of the careful good training with good voices. The number is well adapted to masculine voices. The bassos played an important part and played it well, but the tenor, too, was delightfully handled. The old favorites, arranged for cho rus, proved their popularity. They were "Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep" and Blue Danube Waltz." The comedy of the programme was the "Little Farm," iven by T. L. Thomas. D. R. Matthews and R. H. Bond. Their' "Short Wife. Tall Wife and No Wife at All" created no end of merriment. "DIAMOND JHVT.

After a series of tests, the Lnited States Army has adopted a water cooled rapid-fire gun of the type now is use on the European battlefields. The barrel of the gun is incased in a water Jacket to prevent its becoming overheated. This is refilled during heavy firing, but when water is not easily available an apparatus is em ployed which condenses the steam generated in the jacket and allows the water to be used over and over again. The gun. whioh is operated by recoil, has a maximum firing speed of about 500 shots a minute, a somewhat slower speed than the air-cooled guns in ordi nary use, but the water-cooled guns are expected to fire a greater number of shots In a long period because of the saving of tho time consumed by the air-ioled gun In inserting tha short feed strips. The regulation .30 caliber cartridge Is employed and the range is 1500 to 1800 yards. Ammunl- tion is fed into it by a belt which holds n r ,i .1 4 U . .hall hairis- automat' lcally inserted and ejected as long as pressure la exerten on ine trigger, cue gun. which weighs 96 pounds, is set on a tripod so constructed as to make the weapon avallablo for use against air- crnft. 8 ,""IM el f frJa,' J"!riiiir lei The Grip Left Me Weak.
