.Miles Through Foes.
PARIS. Sept. 8. (By the Associated
Press.) Lieutenant Hitchcock. Jr., of
Wcstbury. X. Y., a youthful member of
the La Fayette Flying Corps, who was
captured by the Germans but escaped
to Switzerland, today described his ex
periences. while a captive and his flight.
Hitchcock was forced to walk more
than 100 miles. This he did in eight
consecutive nights. He was captured
March 6, when he was forced to land
after an aerial combat with three Ger
man machines. He was wounded In the
thigh.
"After landing inside the German
lines." said Hitchcock, "f fainted twice.
In the hospital I received fair treat
mcnt only. There was one doctor for
the 150 patients and the food was not
very good.
Guard la Caught Doslnc-
"I escaped while being: transported
with two other Americans from Lacn
feld to Rastadt There was one Ger
man guard for the three of us.
"While the train stopped at a sta
tion near Ulm the guard fell into a doze.
I snatched the railway map which was
near him and also my money.
"The guard awoke and missed the
map and money. Picking: up my pack
me of food which had been saved from
my rations, but leaving the map be
hind, I rushed out of the door opposite
and ran from the train. The guard
yelled after me. but I knew he could
not follow because of the two other
prisoners.
I-ong Nlg-it Trip Started.
I then slowed down and began to
walk toward the frontier. During the
day I always hid in the woods and at
night I avoided towns and villages,
walking around them. I was always
on a close watch for the Germans, for
I was In the uniform of a French
aviator. Most of the territory I trav
ersed was farming land, with the peo.
pie working during the day. When
they left the fields in the evening 1
would begin my tramp.
"Arriving at what I thought was the
Swiss frontier. I watched lor traps sucn
as electrically charged wires and auto
matic signals. Apparently I evaded all
such things.
Swiss Bonndary Crossed.
"One morning I felt sure that I was
in Switzerland, but before inquiring 1
added a few extra miles to my tramp
and found myself in a little village.
There I asked a girl, wh.i spoke French,
where I was. She said I was in Switzer
land, and then I knew I was safe."
Hitchcock vill leave for the United
States in about two weeks. He in.
tends to transfer from the French to
the American flying corps.

fighting has been the' crossing of the
St. Crozat Canal at St. Simon, because
the canal might have been used as a
bastion for this part of the Hinden
burg line. It no longer offers the Ger
mans a reasonable defensive position.
Roisel is the junction of two lines, to
Cambral and St. Quentin. Hence the
importance of its capture to the British,
who, when they advance further, will
be able to utilize these lines. The Brit
ish now hold virtually all of the Hav
rincourt wood.
Between the Oise and the Ailette the
French are up against the so-called
Alberich line, which is a continuation
of the Hindenburg line.
It has just been discovered that three
German divisions have three times been
put in the fighting since August 8, and
32 divisions twice, out of the 107 di
visions engaged since that date. Alto
gether north and south of the Somme
143 divisions of the enemy have been
counted of a total rifle strength of
1,250,000. On the whole front from the
sea to Switzerland the total strength
of the enemy probably does not exceed
2,500,000 men.
SOLDIERS REST ON HILL
VLADIVOSTOK. Thursday. Sept. 6.
(By the Associated Press.) The Japa
nese militasy staff has been informed
that the Czecho-Slovaks hold the rail
way from Olovyanna to Pensa.
It is now apparent ' that the unex
pected climax in the Czecho-Slovak
break through was due partly to the
allied advance toward Khabarovsk,
which caused -the transfer of a large
Bolshevik' force from Lake Baikal
toward Khabarovsk and the weakened
front collapsed under tlfls Czech pres
sure from the west and Oeneral fciem-
enoffa pressure from the east. '.
Blow to Germany Seen.
The opportunity is now presented of
the allies taking advantage of the
strategical points to move into the
heart of Russia, where considerable
reinforcements from loyal Russian ele
ments are certain and striking a stun
ning blow at Germany. It is believed
Germany will make the greatest sacri
fices to bold conquered Russian terri
tory.
Olovyanna is in Trans-Baikal, about
400 miles east of Lake Baikal, while
Pensa is on the railroad a little more
than 600 miles southeast of Petrograd.

"Our Boys" With the Colors
Visitors Say Even in Death Young
Americans Stand Guard Over City
They Died to Protect.
PARIS, Sept. 8. Upon the eastern
slope of Mount Valerian are buried the
280 American soldiers who have died
in Paris hospitals. Although the ceme
tery has been in use only three months,
it is sought out by reverent American
visitors and the graves, marked by the
intertwined colors of the two repub
lics,, are constantly . decorated with
flowers.
Not content with acting as god
mothers to the American soldiers who
return to Paris on furloughs. French
mothers, whose sons have died that
liberty might live, had adopted the
boys from the United States even in
death. To each little cross on Mount
Valerian there is pinned a card showing
that some woman has vowed the grave
shall never be without a wreath or
vase of flowers. Some of the floral
pieces are of elaborate workmanship.
From the slopes of Valerian the beau
tiful panorama of the Paris region
spreads out, for the imposing hill is
one of the most -effective defenses of
the city. Visitors have said it seemed
to them that even in death the young
Americans are standing guard over the
Paris they died to protect.
The oldest grave in the cemetery is
that of Private Bought, of the 102d In
fantry, who died March 26 last. Most
of the plates tacked to the wooden
crosses bear more recent dates and the
majority of the soldiers lying there be
long to the Marine Corps.

The refugees say that starvation had
become so prevalent in Moscow ( that
late in August the food commission was
forced to remove all regulations on
citizens and permitted them to enter
the city with 60 pounds of food each.
This step, it was asserted, was an ad
mission of the absolute failure of the
food commission which had no bread
and was forced through the pressure
of the rebelling citizens to let the peo
ple take the food supply into their own
hands.
Wheat and other grains were not
available, as the peasants in the grain
sections, still under Soviet control re
fused to feed the cities. Potatoes and
other vegetables were selling at 25
cents a pound. They are the 'chief food
supply of Moscow and Petrograd.
The workmen of Moscow and Petro
grad factories cannot obtain food from
the commission, which has advised
them to shoulder rifles and take the
grain, away from the peasants. This
advice has seldom been heeded, as
majority of the workmen regard the
peasants as brothers.

BY RUSH OF WORK
In these war limes wa all want to
ireep ourselves at the highest point of
efficiency to be able to do our share in
the many demands for service that are
made on all. Unless you stop the
mental fatigue and build up your
nerves you will be fortunate if you es
cape nervous breakdown, some form
of paralysis or other severe nervous
disorder.
"The strain of a rush of work at the
ill, due to war orders, was gettingon
fny nerves," says Mr. Thomas Wagner
of 67 Marshall street, Lowell, Mass.,
"and I had stomach trouble. Mv ao-
petite was poor and I could not digest
food. I was uneasy all the time. I
was restlessand rolled and tossed about
in bed. When I got up I did not feel
like working. A friend recommended
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I gave
tnem a trial, i soon noticed that tbey
were helping me. I can eat better and
have more ambition. My nerves are
Steadier and I rest well at night. I
certainly can recommend these pills
after what they have done for me."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a nerve
tonic. They build up the nerves in
the only possible way, by enriching
the blood with elements the serves
need. The treatment is one of nutri
tion of the nerve cells, requiringa non
alcoholic tonic, and Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills have proved useful in so many
severe cases that every sufferer is j usti
fied in giving them a trial for any form
of nervous debility. They contain bo
opiate or harmful drag.

Benefited by Friends' Advice, Passea
the Good Advice Along to Others.
Milwaukee, Wis. "I was weak, ner
vous, run-down, no appetite and han
taken all- different medicines without
benefit. A friend advised me to try
Vinoi. It gave me a .wonderful appe
tite, I sleep well, have gained in weight
and am now strong and well." Mrs. E.
Strey.
We strongly recommend Vinoi, which
contains beef and cod liver peptones,
iron and manganese peptonates and
glycerophosphates for all weak, ner
vous, run-down conditions and to build
up strength after sickness. The Owl
