I had nut ftnllfitfiri anrttnan wMHHieur rnaKo a actour that I might visit thW. ancient house at closer range. Wo wtM, up a winding road typically French H, find Us end at tho chateau Itself. It was, closed and quite desorted, without even the sign of a caretaker. I don't doubt that t could very easily find Its history and fcvayhap the present owner's permission to ytalt its Interior, but It seems to mo as I think of It after nn hour's close Inspection, met following a constant dally vision of It! Majesty at a distance, that I can tell Its ale. And I hope In something of an h)tlmacy of ownership, for do wo not each and all own birthright in the things that touch us closely, be they paintings or trees or chateaus of Iho fifteenth century? It- was basking In the morning sun, this M chateau, every, window barred and the weather-scarred gold of a crest over tho atranco glittering still. Upon otio side weie raagnlflcont forests and beyond a roll ing plain of recently harvested land. In tho ancient garden beforo were giant nn trlmraed bos trees and old bushe3 of the Hlaci Beyond them I could see a Held far down In the va)lcy. a field rich In yellow of the mustard and red of tho poppy. It was, all rarely beautiful and amid a great yeaco, nesplte that nearby khakl-clad ftammecs were learning to kill. "It's a long, long journey to tho days you were, built, my chateau upon tho hill! And the changes that, have como to Franco have been many since your old doors were llrst opened to the habitation of man. To Imagine them all would tako great space. May I choose a few? First tho days of romance, of powdered wlga and the sedan chair, in which glided lackles carried ray- lady up and down your low, broad Btalrs. And then the days when Kings visited you, their men at arms rid ing by their sides, tho days of feathered fcats and the quick sword.

All tbeae things, and many more were yourrpTtlon; and with them nil tho Vicissitudes of mankind, tho Joys and sor rows, the births, and deaths that are human portion. You stand upon your hill, solid and trong.. majestic and beautiful, a part of the Franco, that men have given their lives to save from barbarian invasion, as much as the land about you you are a part of that which Franco spells and it Is no mall part of what you and she stand for that American youth havo crossed tho sea to defend; that khakl-clad Sammees aro training within but llttlo distanco of your gates.

ROME. Oct. 31. PREMIER ORLANDO, who wns formally Inducted into office suc ceeding Paolo Bosclll today, tele graphed General Cadorna that tho Italian peoplo wero united In faith and hope in the army. "Italians, profiting by their coun try's invasion, havo composed their internal dissentlons, enhancing their energies and their unshakablo deter mination," ho asserted. "As tho people hailed tho army when vic torious, they now draw closer to it in its hour of adversity." and In addition Is a "natural barrier against invasion from tho north." Tho defensive works on this lino 'extend across country for many miles. Whllo the second and third armies have been retreating threo other armies, the bulk of tho nation's re serves, havo been strengthening tho Taglla- mento defenses, official cables state. Cadorna Is executing a "masterly re treat," the cable 6ays. Southeast of Udlne, which has been sacrificed, the Italian third army fa withdrawing slowly and, unless overwhelmed by unexpected numbers of tho enemy, may bo nblo to execute n flanking movement designed to save much territory At the northernmost corner of tho tri angular battleground, more than 100 miles from the Adriatic, lies Polccken In tho Carnlc Alps, the pivotal point of tho entire strategic plan of Von Mackensen nnd Ca dornn. If the Italian Fourth army Is able to hold tho path from this point tho Taglla mento line' will bo safo for Cadorna. If tho path Is lost to tho Italians, Von Mack ensen will bo nblo to execute a flanking movement and turn tho entire northern wing of the Italian army. This would force Cadorna to retreat Miuthward to tho l'iavc River Italy's second natural lino of de fense. Important towns like I'almanova, Ora dlsca nnd Ccrvlgnano will be sacrificed like pawns by Cadorna. General Corsl, military critic of the Home Trlbuna, Is optimistic about Cadorna's de cision to mnko a stand at Tagllamento. The Trlbuna Insists tho forthcoming battle there will bo tho deciding struggle of tho war. "For the third time," says this paper, "Italy has been called on to save Europe from the Austro-Germans, who are making this supremo effort to savo Austria and Germany from the terror of a fourth war winter." With tho nrrlval of coal from this coun try, the Italian munition factories, many of which have been cither Idle or greater Incapacitated through lack of fuel, will be ablo to resume operations. The belief hero now Is that If Cadorna can check Von Mack ensen for a week at tho Tagllamento the crisis will havo been successfully passed and re-enforcements of Allied troops, muni tions and other supplies will turn the tide. reiterated yesterday the unshakable faith of the great city of Lomlnrdy in the army and today has once mora confirmed t In a solemn mass-meeting. At Itomo the peoplo have greeted our heroic king with great acclamation. The political parties of every shade have shaken hands, forgetting all their differences nnd frnterntzlng In tho holy name oi tho fatherland. "Both country nnd nrmy have tho firm ana unanimous will to fight and win. "To both country and nrmy In these days of trials, tho attachment of tho great coloiMt of America their communion of alms and Ideals, their faith In tho high destinies of the fatherland will be Of great est help and assistance."

The eyes of tho world nro turned today on the Venetian plains in Italy, centering on tho Tagllamento Itlver, where there Is ocry reason to believe tho greatest battle In the history of the war soon will be fought. Tho Teutonic nrmy, already in possession of Udlne, today continued Its march toward the river. Another German movement Is on tho north, whero Von Bulow's forces havo almost reached tho Upper Tagllamento. Along tho Tagllamento and not fur from Udlne General Cadorn's forces aro slowly retreating. Burning their bridges behind them, exercising n. rear guard check to U'o enemy and fording tho swollen stream whereer possible, tho retreat IS slow but certain. In the meantime, British and French as sistance Is being hurried to tho sceno of the Impeding conflict. The political effect of the enemy drive In Italy is rapidly becoming apparent. Tho military viewpoint brings out the de termination to stand firm and save Italy. "Not a single whisper reached London that re-enforcements were needed In Italy to repel a possible Invasion," the Globo declared today in an editorial, deprecat ing accusations that England and France did not heed Italian warnings. "None doubted the solidarity of the Ital ian military situation or questioned the ability of the Italians to hold their recent gains," tho newspaper declared. "ITALY IN FIGHT TO WIN," CHEERING MESSAGE OF AMBASSADOR TO U. S. WASHINGTON, Oct. 31. "Italy nnd its great army aro in tho light to win and aro sure of victory."

Tho Ambassador's statement was mado be cause tho Italians throughout tho country have sent him assurances of their strong faith In tho mother country and they wanted to know whero Italy stood In tho present crisis. "I wish to answer publicly theso moving manifestations of patriotism," said the Ambassador. "The news from Italy Is that the Austro German coalition has attacked our army with overpowering force, both In men and artillery, and that tho Italian troops, ful filling faithfully nnd bravely tho directions of the supreme command, aro stemming tho advanco of tho enemy. The country Is upholding tho army with calm determina tion. From our Allies wo receive the sup port of their solidarity ani of their arms. "If the enemy, in his first rush, has suc ceeded in overcoming a few units of our army, lnnumcrablo deeds of valor wero ac complished. When particulars shall be known, our country will find in them reason to rejoice. It was only yesterday that a glorious advance was accomplished. The enemy coalition, seriously endangered by our success, has concentrated in a supreme .effort all his forces on the Italian front. "Tho heroism of our soldiers nnd officers and the sagacity of the command, thanks to which we went so far in the direction of Lelbach as to threaten Austria and the Germanlo coalition, aro sure tokens that In new, glorious enterprises the Italian army will Insure the present and future safety of the country and bring about the triumph of the great Ideals for which It fights to gether with the whole civilized world.
