Captain Tells War Tales .
Fred Sayles, clerk at the Multnomah,
who was a captain in the days of the
war, regaled his associates with tales
In connection with several German
shells which h picked up on the bat
tlefield of Chemin des Dame, and which
he Is having made up into beautiful
vases, lamps, umbrella holders, cigar
stands and whatnot. The battlefield
was fought over 18 different times, and
after the war the huge shells were
stacked In big piles, of which the
souvenir hunter was privileged to' take
as many as he could carry. Wrapped
about the shells were several French
newspapers giving accounts of the vic
tory parade and celebration In Paria
last summer. To see this parade some
people paid as high aa 100,000 franca,
or 34000, for a single window, said
Sayles. The French peopleatook great
delight In destroying German guns, lift
ing them high Into the air and drop
ping them. As the big Instruments of
destruction fell Into a shapeless mass
the people laughed and shouted with
glee.
