He has been battling mediocre talent with out much preparation, but unless he is in tip-top condition, will not figure with the Chattanooga scrapper. After the fashion of a maniac drum mer in mid-battle, little Joe Gorman " declares he will beat a tattoo on the "lummy"' of Hebrew Danny Frush, who registers from England.

WOUNDED VETERANS HOMEiSft, ESS been led to believe- peace had come from the gestures and conduct of his German associates. He says they put on some demonstration the night the armistice was signed, but he did hot know what it was all abuot. His American rescuer took him to Berlin, where he spent eight days sight-seeing and having a good time. Those weeks in that German prison were as so many years, with nothing to read, nobody to talk to and with very little to eat. The food, he says, was simply awful. For breakfast he was served with a half loaf of black bread made of sawdust and potatoes and that portion had to last all day and coffee made of acorns and burned bar ley. For dinner he had carrots, and for supper he had soup made of grits. When Kinman was captured he weighed 167 pounds, and when liber ated he only weighed 127. One day he was very hungry for sweets and sent out and bought a half pound of ginger snaps, which cost him 19 marks. On another occasion .he sent out and bought a pound of nutter that weighed about a half pound, and it cost him 30 marks, or $7.20. He will go to Rock ford to the base hospital in a few days ofr further treatment of his wounds. Illinois Men Have Hard Experience In Argonne Battle. BENTON". 111.

He carries two machine gun'wounds. one in his left arm and the other in his left' hand. He has nartlal use of his arm and hand, and has been told by sergeons that he will recover from the wounds, although an other operation will be necessary. These German bullets were of the poisoned variety and serious infection and weeks of pain resulted. Kinman has an interesting narrative of his experiences. On the morning of October 19. when the American troops were storming the Argonne Forest, his division was subjected to a rain of fire and came in contact with a ma chine gun nest, where Americans were mowed down like weeds. He was wounded early in the morning and crawled into a shell hole, where he lay until dark, when he was picked up by a German patroL He says he never saw a living soldier anywhere -about him.

His captors first carried him to Trier, where he was held eight days. He was then taken to a hospital prison at Kat towltz. where he was heid-until De cember 2d. That morning he heard an American voice inquire: "Where's that Tank in here?" He was astounded, for that was the first Knglish words he had heard spoken since being in the hospital, all the other inmates being wounded Germans, unable to speak any other language. His visitor proved to be an American Lieutenant, Thomas P. Shay of Springfield. Mass., who had come to take Kinman away. This was MINERS WANT NEW LAW Nationalization of Properties Will Be Sought. INDIANAPOLIS. In addition r to adopting the recommendations of Presi dent Frank J. Hayes lor a six-nour day, an increase in the wage scale and the nationalization of mines, the policy committee of the United Mine Workers of America has recommended that the International officials of the organiza tion be empowered to have drafted a tentative bill to be presented to congress providing for the national ization of all coal mines. Alt recom mendations of the policy committee will be acted upon by a special inter national convention to be called by the international officers of the union. This convention will be called before peace terms are signed. The report or the policy spbeom- mittee was made after the committee had been in session two days. The noli,w nrtmmittee ndnnted the reDort I X with little discussion except such as was made in attempts to have adopteii amendments covering details of an in crease in the wage scale. In reference to that it was held by President Hayes that a consideration of details would involve the committee in more work than it could prprerly attend to. Japanese Paper Prints Rumors.
