Rothern engajicd In a toar of the DrltlHh end American rext camp and taeed hla ahowa on both the IlrttUh and American front. Like a not, when the mort Jramatlc moment ar rived during a performance a udderj cry of "Light Out," would preaaee an air raid and the performance would atmpend until the "All Clear" elgnal wai heard. At other time a bumtlng ahell near the hut where the actor Impersonated hi favorite bits of Hamlet or King Lear added to the drama of the occ lion. Once on the Drltlah front, Sothern had need of a philosophy oily year of public appearances supplies. The "Tommies" of the audience had never heard of Rothern. They sat en tertained while a troupe of trained do;' were put through their paces. Then Sothern, and tea time, arrived simultaneously. Being accustomed to ten through generations of hnblt, the Tntnmli'8 walked out In a body 00 Sothern. "There mny have been time when ! would have simply been staggered by such a reception," the veteran ador eommenfd afterward. "Uut up there well, I understood. Revenge! An English colonel who, this yarn must reveal, whs not too popular with hli troops, was prowling about one night In No Man' Land, just north of Arms. He was seen In the light of a star ahell sent soaring aloft from the German lines. When the neit shell shed It gentle light over the disputed ground a Roche sniper In a tree fired upon the Englishman. The colonel rolled Into a convenient hell hole and lay there, unharmed. while succeeding star shells burst and burned out Came a lull and dark ncss and the colonel crawled back Into tils own trenches. . "See here." he upbraided the lleuten ant In command. "What dye mean by not getting that sniper In the tree who fired at mer "We didn't see him. sir," replied the officer. "But he shall be taken care of Immediately. I'll put one of my best riflemen on the Job at once." The appeased colonel hiked back to his dugout while a sharpshooter was summoned and ordered to bring dowo the German sniper. The man took op position at a rift In the parapet, ad Justed his sling and waited. A star shell soared upward from the enemy lines and burst Its radiance revealed the German marksman In bis tree. When the next shell lighted up the ter rain the Kngllsh rltleman was ready and sent a bullet whistling true to It mark. As the Oermnn collapsed and hung grotesquely from the branches of his hiding place, the English sharpshooter remarked : "Take that, you . . . for missing our colonel J" The Gallic Temperament Rolillcrs of the French army, as they appeared to American eyes, were a strange but likeable mingling of vivacity and philosophy. The phllo sophlcal ones, per example, were those old fellow who, Instend of peacefully fishing somewhere along the Seine, or Auhe, or Alsne or some of those other streams, were holding their part of the line of trenches known a the Western Front. Their philosophy manifested Itself most noticeably as they trudged along mountain roads, returning to their lec tors in the Vosges, stopping now and then to nibble at the huge brown bread each man carried. They would be told to return to a sector at a cer tain time and each soldier would wan der In promptly, on his own. Can you Imagine a Yank regiment doing thatt Among the vivacious element were the French engineers. One little Inci dent Illustrates them perfectly. It occurred on a shell-torn road near Verdun. The engineers were repairing the road. A passing truck churned np oldler body from the mud and an engineer, thinking the1 corpe Uoche, Jumped upon It with both feet "Cochonl CochonP shouted the ex cited Frenchman. Of a sudden, the engineer discovered the body to be that of one or his comrades. Ill attitude changed In a flash nnd, dropping to his knees, he began wiping the torn fuce clean, murmuring soft phrases, as tender as a woman. Work on the road was topped by the entire detail. They turned to with their shovels and gavo the dead Pol 1 11 a decent burial. HQ. 1911. Weattrn Ntwipsiwr Union.)

The shrine Is In the shadow of a large cypress tree, which Is called Iniiboe-No-IIinok! or Dog Barking Cypress tree, and Is dedl cated to the memory of a dog whose sacrifice I supposed to have saved the live of the population In that district Tradition has It that once the two provinces of Kll and Klnkl were visited by a terrible deluge, which made the mountain streams Into rushing torrent that swept all before them and filled the valleys with water. The population, terror-stricken, was forced on to higher land, but accord ing to the story the higher they went the higher the water followed thera. Finally the people could go no far ther; they had reached the top of this peak, Tamaoklyama. Some com mitted aulcide by Jumping Into the water, and the others were sure that death wa near. At this crucial mo ment a dog climbed to the top of cypres tree on the summit and for three day and nights barked at the rain and floods. On the fourth day be Jumped Into the water and was drowned, but the flood Immediately receded, and the people were saved It was In honor of this deed that the shrine was built and the tree given a special came.

State Seeks Hinges of Door of Historic Fort The state of Maryland Is encased In a search for an old hlnce. The search center around Hagerstown and the object is one of tbe massive hand-made hinges which did service upon the doors of historic Fort Fred erick. This was erected in 1755 for the protection of the settler aeainst the Indians and it Is located on the old Craddock trail to Pittsburgh. Section of the long abandoned high way may still be seeu In the vicinity of the fort The fort has been neg lected for years, but the state ac quired possession of the structure and the surrounding property eight year ago, and now it is proposed to restore It to Its old-time appearance. Persons who remember the structure say that the great binges upon the door were one of the outstandln features of the old fort' architec ture, and the suspicion lurks that one of them may be found to act as a pattern for making others.
