but Conditions in France Re
quire Increasing; Vigil.
WASHINGTON, Feb. .13. Gene
Pershing has recommended to the War
Department that the number of Chap
lains In the Army be increased for the
war.
While the conduct of the expedition

round tha men with the best influence
possible.

Nation," aaid General Pershing's cable
gram, made public tonight, "much is
expected of our Army and nothing
should be left undone that will help
in keeping it up to the highest stand
ard of efficiency. Counting myself re
sponsible for the welfare of our men
in every respect it is my desire to sur
round them with the best influence pos
sible. In the fulfilment of this solemn
trust it seema wise to request the aid
of the churches at home.
Men selected should be of the high
est character, with reputations well
established as sensible, practical, active
ministera or. workers accustomed to
dealing with young men.' They should
be in. vigorous health, as t"ir services
will be needed under mosi trying cir
cumstances, i
"It is my purpose to give the Chap
lains' Corps through these forces a defi
nite and responsible status and to out
line, direct and enlarge their work into
co-operative and useful aid to the
troops."

BLOODHOUNDS TAKE TRAIL
"You're Too Beautiful lo Have Such
Hair," Cries Masked Man as Ho
'Throws Girl to Ground and
Cuts Curls From Head.
SILVERTON, Or., Feb. 13. (Special.)'
Miss Lillian Rosheim, aged 16, daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Rosheim, long .
and well-known residents of this city,
tonight lies in a sanitarium here In a
serious condition as the result of an
attack by an unknown masked man
who tried to steal her hair about 11
o'clock this morning one and one-half
miles out of town.
Mrs. Hugh Small, at whose home tha
girl had been visiting, found her lying
unc-nscious in a puddle of water back
of the house an hour after the attack
was made.
Man In While Mask.
The assailant wore a white mask,
Lillian said afterwards, and as she
walked out of the Small house and
w-ent around the corner she was
grabbed, thrown to the ground, her
cries for help muffled and with some
instrument the assailant cut several
curls from her head, crying:
"You're - too beautiful , to own such
fine hair."
During the fight which the girl mado
with her assailant her dress was torn
and she was seriously injured. No
further violence than the cutting of
her hair .was .attempted, she declared.
The Constable of Silverton, A. F.
Fineral, Immediately notified -the
Sheriff at Salem, who, with two dep
uties, rushed here in an automobile
with two bloodhounds, the men and
dogs taking the trail at once.
No theory has been advanced for tha
strange assault except that possibly
an insane person or a degenerate liv-
ng in the vicinity may have been
watching the girl's movements and.
lying in wait for her, timed his attack
when Hugh Small, at whose home she
had been, was in Silverton and there -were
no other men near at hand.
Small Home Isolated.
The Small home is located in a wood
ed district and there are no other
houses within half a mile. Mrs. Small
was in the house when the attack was
made, but declares there were no cries,-
or at least she heard none, and it was
not until the dog, barking loudly, at
tracted Mrs. Small's attention that she
went back of the house and found
Lillian.
Early, in the evening a man answer-
ng the general .description of Miss
Rosheim's assailant was seen running
across the Vields toward Scott's Mills,
and four, men from here Jumped into
an automobile and pursued him. They
have not been heard from. yet.
The girl declared that htr masked
assailant was short and wore an Army
hat and a khaki suit. a
Further examination of the girl will
be made at the sanitarium for possible
internal Injuries, it being believed by ,
Mrs. Rosheim that her daughter's back
has been wrenched.
Mr. Rosheim is a millman here.
SALEM, Or, Feb. 13. (Special.) The
latest elopnents from - the Oregon
State Hospital were Evelyn Day and E.
Skog, both male patients from Port- -
land, who left together about two
weeks ago.
One of the hospital physicians stated
tonight that Day was considered to
have some degenerate tendencies. The
men both suffered from religious hallu
cinations. Neither dressed when they
left the institution to correspond to the
description given -of the assailant of
the Silverton girl, and hospital authori
ties believe these men made their way
to Portland.
