state chairman of tho Fourth Liberty

her of the state board ot appeals for

appeal In support of the coming loan,
and Chairman Smith explained that
the country hud Just begun to mako
tho sacrifices thnt It might be called

that the huge sum asked by tho gov

Major Jack Hamilton, who recently
returned from Franco after years ot
thrilling war experiences, gave tho lo
cal public one of tho most Interesting
war pictures that has ever been pre
sented horo. In a matter ot fact way
he described conditions on tho west
ern front In the most graphic way and
made startling statements that were
a rovelatlon to tho people hore.
In the battle of the Somme, he do
dared .the Allied nuns wero trained
on the onotny'a strongholds for 18
hours a day for a period ot three
months, before thoy were finally
crumbled, and when they woro tin
ally taken they wj)ro found to be
made ot concrete 80 feet deep. Hos
pltala for the Oormnns capablo of cur
ing for 500 men were discovered 300
feet underground.
Major Hamilton described tho var
ious kinds of gas employed by tho en
emy and their effects on the soldiers.
Oas, he says, Is now sent over In
shells and Is of such a nature that
It can neither be seen aor smolled.
Altho its time of damage la abort,
anyone within range who moves u
muscle during this ttme Is sure to
drop dead. Ho addod, however, that
the Americans were sending Frits
back all the deadly gaseilio had In
flicted with terrlblo .Interest.
How the major andlils driver shot
and killed a party ot drunken Hun
soldiers whom they caught In a
school outraging a number ot young
girls, and how they rescued ono ot
the girls, who afterwards became the
offlcor's wlfe waa Intensely interest

Flro, which was believed to have
started from tho kitchen stove at six
o'clock this morning, destroyed the
homo of M. It. Andersonat 711 Oak
avenue.
Altho the framo of tho structure
still stunds, It Is now worse than use
loss and will have to be entirely re
built. Tho furnishings are also a
total loss, tho family, with the excep
tion of Mr. Anderson, getting barely
nway in tholr night clothing.
Mr. Anderson, as was his custom,
aroae and kindled the tire this morn
ing and went outside to do some work
before breakfast. The family were
still asleep when he left and the fire
In some manner caught and spread
before they were awakened.
Mr. Anderson estimates the total
