Iteresting as the pictured an
nouncements we are so accus
jtomed to, even with the most
attractive and convincing type
effects? Yet it must be borne
in mind that illustrated adver

of comparatively recent growth
but its growth has been rapid,
and its adoption almost universal.

has broadened his re
quest that newspapers
print no details concerning the
movement of ships. By his re
quest on July 6, '18, they were
asked to refrain from mention
ing the sailing, location or sup
posed location of any ship in
American water. Experience,
he states, has demonstrated the
fact that the request should
not have been limited to "Am
erican waters," but should
have included "or in other
waters."
The declaration of war by
the Bolsheviki government up
on the allies, at least opens the
way for the allies to go into
that country. Lenine seems to
be getting into deeper water
all the time.
One can hardly be blamed
for thinking the crown prince
has more skill for" rolling ci
garettes than in leading an
army.
A mother thinks it queer her
daughter should care for the
things she never cared for herself.
The old boys registered in
September can be sent over to
take care of the Bolsheviki. The
job should be to their liking.
Umatilla county's harvest
may be said to be started on
the last lap, and there will
be enough labor to take care of
all the crops.
Of course Umatilla county
will do her part to help the
Salvation Army.

hard words, but in doing so we
may be sure he had a purpose,
For example the allies must
beware lest a way is left open
for a peace that is no peace. It
is freely talked that the next
great move planned by ' Ger-
m ay is to be a peace drive a
drive for a German peace. '
The trend of statements by
1 public men in Germany of late
has been strongly significant, in
one direction. There is a great,
an overwhelming desire to see
the downfall of Lloyd George
in England and Clemen
ceau in France in order that
Germany may begin a peace
drive of unprecedented pro
portions. That drive would
have for its basis efforts to win
acceptance by Germany's ene
mies of the treaties of Brest
Litovsk and Bukharest, in
creased colonial possessions
for Germany, favorable trade
arrangements and abundant
supplies of raw materials.

Thrilling Tale Told of Long
Suffering and ngnt

(Special Correspondence of tiie Ital

LONDON', July 10. The must
thrilling escape of prisoners since the
great war began was effected without
doubt by eight Italians now in Lon
don, who got away from an Austrian
concentration camp after eighteen
months ouffering. They were Cor

to Parentt. Hi
I met them soon after their arriv
al in London 'In a small restaurant
where they were guests of the pro
prietor. Dannl told me In French
how they had reached London after
ninety days of travel, partly afoot and
partly by rail. He said life In the
camp was intolerable from the first,
and they lost no time In plo.tlng an
escape-
"We decided death would be pref
erable to life In such circumstances,"
Dannl aneerted. "and agreed to com
mit suicide or burst our hearts If we
kicked the weapons necessary.
"We were kept like cattlo. with
damp straw for bedding and rats for
company at night. our wonting
hours were sixteen for each of the
seven days. Our food was the pool -
est black bread and a nauseating sub
stitute for coffee. Only excrutlatlng
hunger ad thirst enabled us to par
take of either.
Whipped When They Ijiirped.
"Every soldier had his own allot
ted task. Each one was watched by
a soldlea with a whip, ready to ap
ply it at teh slightest provocation, and
wantlna- that he used It as a dtaoon
cal amusement. The Austrian offi
cers descended to the level of spitting
on the Italians, kicking them wltn
their heavy boots, and laughing at
their groans or protests.
"Once an Italian soldier after be
ing subjected to all these tortoures and
practical Jokes, struck the officer a
heavy blow in the face which sent
him reeling to the ground senseless.
The chastisement of the soldier was
horrible. He was triced up for three
days so that he could not move, but
that was the least of it. When he
was freed he fell helples like a log.
but blows soon restored him.
"It was marvellous that we suc
ceeded in escaping the vigilance of
the sentinels close to the camp and
spread around it for a long distace.
We walked acrors Bessarabia, the
province of Podalia, and Volynia. to
Minsk: that Is 350 miles.
"At Minsk our eheos were whipped
out and our feet benumbed with cold.
Every step was torture, but we only
thought of freedom. Not knowing
where we were, we kept pushing on
rapidly. We dug under the snow and
found radishes which were our food.
Russian Peasants, Hospitable.
"When at last we knew we were in
Russia." Dannl continued, "we asked
the peasants for food and found them
hospitable, but their supplies were

man offered us some vodka which he
kept hidden away In his cabin. We

Ifuil to our ujuig Kia-t .
"There were trains enough from
Minsk: to Petrograd. They moved
slowly, however, and for the greater
part were filled with soldiers. Just
outside Minsk we ' eight fugitives
leaped aboard the first one passing as
best we could. The Russian soldiers
welcomed us cheerily, and listened to
our story. It developed that two of
the Italians were on the trucks or
the last car. Ail were two days with
out food.

At this oiiit In the narrative one
of the others whispered in Dannl's
ear that he had forgottn something.
Dannl began again:
"I forgiit to soy that In a Russian
village an old man Joined us and
handed me a large knife. W'e did not
understand the meaning of It and
could not understand his voluble
words. Soon we saw his purpose. His
acts exemplified themselves. Crossing
the snow we heard a strange groan,
doing toward It we found a bear cub.
no larger than a lamb. It was miia
and although hunger was urging, we
felt a touch of remorse at the thought
of killing IV
"Moreover we rind no wood ana ne
matches to start a fire. Then we saw
what the old man had In mind. He
asked us to eat the raw flesh of the
little bear. We found it tender and
delicious and It proved a real feast. I
"Not once during our long tramp
did we have matches with which to'
make a fire, only once or twice In,
the peasants' huts were we able to j
smoke. They hail no matches and
did not need them for they kept a
fire lighted night and day the year
round. ,
"Now and then we found dead birds!
usually fromen. and ate them greedily!
when they were not too far decayed, j
It la amazing what one can endure. ;
Our hardships, however, hnve left no1
trace except for the frost bites we
shall carry tn the grave."
Rrai'h Arctic Seaport. j
The eight fugitives had several hun-'
dred miles to travel in order to reach
the Murman coast of the Arctic ocean.
The railroads were choked with
freight and demoralized It was ne
cessary to walk, and the days were
short. Several times they lust their
way. but were set right by the aurora
borealis. '
It grew steadily colder. There were !
heavy snows. The eight Italians dug
their own shelter every night In thej
snow before they slept. Ice quenched I
their thirst and snow furnished heat.
They took hold of hands and each
one resting his head on his next com- i
panion they helped each other along
In turn. It was a chain of men, worn 1
cut and exhausted which dragged It-:
pelf through that dreary wilderness. ',
They wTere sustained by the hope of
living again In their beloved country. 1
When their spirits waned they sang
the "Hymn of Garibaldi." j
"On the seventy-fifth day of their
pilgrimage they reached the Arctic
seaport of Muran. There they receiv
