Va.-—What section of the trenches do you hail from ■ That's a hard question to answer, it you don't happen to know, and there's only one man in the world who can look at you and tell, accord ing to latest reports from the United States Marines in Prance. A prophet? No just a plain, ordi nary human being—and what's more, all he needs to see is your feet! To be Sure, he's only a bootblack, but. nevertheless, he's the acknowledged | "nmd specialist" of Paris. A letter received here to-day from ; an overseas marine states: "While | awaiting my turn in the 'specialists | parlor recently, I observed a Prench •soldier getting his boots polished. The man examined the mud on the Prenchnian's boots and immediately told him he was from Verdun. "Oui, certainment," this Poilu said, much surprised. Then the 'mud doctor gave me the once over and said: 'And you, monsieur, are from B- ' He certainly hit the nail on the head. He has made a study of what he calls mud culture, and is consid ered one of the highest specialized persons in Paris." Russ "Victory" Causes William to See Things Amsterdam, March 7. —To a mes sage of contragulation from the vice-president of the Reichstag over the signing of the Russian peace, says a Berlin telegram, Emperor William replied: "The complete victory fills me with gratitude.

Three Re publican members joined seven Democrats defeating the resolution. HONOR MEMORY OF IRISH LEADER [Continued from First Page.] friends knew the physical tortures he endured while serving his coun try in that trying position. >■*< Worked to Last Mr. Redmond's last utterance to the Premier when he saw him a few days ago, a broken man, was a plea for concord between the two races "that Providence had decided should work together for the common aims of humanity." Former Premier Asquith added his tribute, saying: "We in this House, even those who differed most acutely and deep ly from him, agree without reserve or qualification that he was at once a great parliamentarian and a true patriot. The House of Commons, Ireland, Great Britain, the whole empire is impoverished by his death." The death of John Redmond at the moment when the convention which is to settle the future of Ire land is having its most momentous sessions, is considered in political circles to be nearly a disaster. Dur ing the weeks which the Irish con vention has been busy trying to find a solution to the Irish problem, to which he gave his life, Mr. Redmond exercised a great moderating influ ence and if, as dispatches from Dub lin say, there again is a prospect of agreement, he must be giv.en a great measure of credit for this state of affairs. Mi fact, since he took over the leadership of the Irish Nationalists on the retirement of Parnell. Mr. Redmond has been among those Irishmen who fought for a settle ment of the Home Rule question by parliamentary means and when the act granting self-government finally became a law in 1914, it was a great triumph for him and received rec ognition throughout the world as was shown by the thousands of con gratulatory telegrams he received.

Mother Dearest:— We are now settled in our winter headquarters at the front, having moved two days ago—and oh! what a cold place it is—as you know we have been waiting orders at a little village behind the lines for nearly two weeks and when the order came to "move on"' we were all so anxious to get busy again that we packed up and moved in a day. We came in convoy with our twenty ambulances—two trucks and staff car, .moving about 70 kilometers to our present location. We are now at the very foot of one of the moun tains and living in a beautiful old house, however without all the com forts. A long lane is immediately in front of the old building, with trees on either side, and under these trees we park our machines, for they must be hidden from the aero planes. We are just a few kilo meters from the lines, but cannot see them for here the lines are on tha mountains and just over the one that is next to us. Wliut a cheer ful feeling.it is to live day by day and not know what morning you may awaken to find an "unwel comed friend" just above you. To bring it home, it is the same as though our headquarters were in the old Miller farmhouse at Penbrook and the Italians held the golf course just on the hill at Reservoir Park in front of it and the top and down the other side as far as the "Mem orial" —then from there on the Aus trianS. There is plenty of action here and it looks as though we will have a very busy winter unless too much snow falls. All the moun tains are well covered now and as yet the real snow has not started to fall, so it looks as though we will have a very severe winter. We can see the many artillery dugouts and placements from here and the noise from the guns never cease. When the larger guns open lire at night, there is one lively time, causing the panes of glass in our windows here to rattle so, that at times they almost break. At night is the beautiful time to watch the action, for all along the top go up—and many other kinds of go up—and many other kind of lights appear. A "Different War'' Down here things are so ent from what we have been accus tomed to in France that it almost seems we are in a different war. Of course the mountains make a great difference and as for the snow, that speaks for itself. Now as to our living here in the house. It is a place where everything has been taken out —dismantled entirely—and looks like a barn—stoves were thought of first and after the first day we managed to get a couple of small kerosene burners, so we put them in one room and l}ved ill there. As yet we have been un successful in getting more, conse quently, you may imagine our con ditions--we all keep hats and coats on —and slowly but surely are be coming more accustomed to the cold and situation. There is very little H2O to be had and what we can accumulate we save for the cars. Many of the men have not washed since their arrival .to say nothing of myself. Friday was the first time in 3 days that I could get enough water to enjoy a simple wash and shave and what luxury! For it was hot water and you cannot guess where I got it when I drained the radiator of my machine, I caught the H2O in a bucket and it quite answered the purpose. Chairs were our next necessity, so the Italian Lieutenant connected to our section said, "We can get all we want in an abandoned moving picture theater in the vil lage just a quarter of a mile away." W r e took a couple of machines and after winding in and out of many small narrow streets (you know the streets) we came to the theater. A bomb had struck the place dur ing an air raid some days ago, but the town has been evacuated for some months. We erjter the build ing—took all the chairs we needed, incidentally finding a couple of tables und loaded them all in the machines. This little town is al most entirely deserted, there is .only a heap of ruins, houses with their roofs gone, their walls torn by shell fire—the storm certainly has visited this once undisturbed little village. I.cft Everything Behind The peopla left everything be hind, taking with them just enough to last for a few days. While our I Italian mechanics loaded the chairs we walked through a few of the houses and found everything imagin able. It was a most depressing sight, for one could imagine these old people getting outj in a few hours' time, and where contentment and happiness was—death and de struction followed. This little vil lage is, as I said, just about one fourth of a mile on the other side of us and to think of its being in range of the Boche guns, seems im possible, for the high mountains on our other side, hide it completely, but only last night at ten o'clock were dropped in it, the noise and sure enough they were after the village. About a dozen big shells were dropped in it and the noise from the explosions and falling of the walls was very plain. It's a wierd sensation to hear these things go whistling overhead and not know where they are going to land. Our first job was a mean one and it came at a bad time. While we were watching the shells burst in the town across the way, and won dering if any of the soldiers quartered there, waiting to go to the front, were killed, an Italian captain came in our living room and said in broken English, "We would like all the cars you can spare to go at once to the hospital in the town to evacuate the patients." What did I think of, as did all the rest—but it was an order, so out we pulled—and in an half hour we were at the hospital. Only two shells came in while we were there, but they were headed for the railroad station, nevertheless how* did we know, and all seemed to be kept guessing—rather a ticklish sensa tion, and if it had been my first time under fire I know T would have been much disturbed. We took the wounded to a small hospital, 30 kilometers away and oh! what a cold night. We only got about two kilometers out of the town when it began snowing—the roads were all frozen and strange to us and by the time we had gotten half way over the road we could Just barely see Ave feet ahead. No lights, of course, and a narrow road with all kinds of transports coming in the opposite direction, headed for the front. One place we passed along a narrow road with canals on both sides. Just 10 feet below it just seemed to me as though one was driving over the Mulberry stree.t bridge with no lights, In a blinding snowstorm and knowing no rail ing was there to stop you from going over. We had no chains, con sequently it was plain Hell for all the cars, and when we did arrive they kept us waiting two hours. We had the ride back, which was just as hard, and at H. 30 A. M. ar rived aL the hospital for orders. They said "come back at 8 A. M. and get 60 more patients to be taken 16 kilometers to a railroad fetation." We did not go to bed but had a cup of coffee at the house and at X returned to the hospital again. Tries to Thaw Out Cold and wet clothes meant noth- i ing and it was 10.30 P. M. until I| arrived back here where 1 sat be side a small fire trying to get "thaw ed out." We had a light luncheon, ] for- as yet we have ntft gotten a stove large enough to do the cook ing. That is just a beginning of the work we have to do and next week we start on the mountain work and that will be even worse. December 10. To-day is the first sunny day we have had since our arrival and the mountains are all in view and look wonderful. About 10 o'clock the aeroplanes started to go up and many of the Italian planes started across the lines. We could see them spiraling upwards and when they got so high that we could just about see them, they started over the mountains. Artillery duels were in progress all day and the noise was one continuous roar. We could see large shells bursting on the top of the one mountain and each time one landed it threw the snow and dirt many feet in the air. Troops were passing on the road all day to-day a#id all seemed to be in good spirits. It is wonderful the way these Italians can carry the large amount of equipment they do—for I noticed one machine gun pass, and the men carried the guns on their backs to say nothing of the heavy plate protector that goes on the gun. I cannot say that the Italian men have as good discipline as the French troops, yet they ac complish just as much. Work in Mountains Two of our cars were sent up the mountains last night on a trial trip and their success depended upon our future mountain work. They start ed at 5.30, and with a guide showing the road, made the climb which was 14 kilometers and very steep. The road is very narrow and covered with ice and snow, so that on some stretches only one line of cars can pass along at a. time. Our cars made it, but the climb was terrible and the road congested to such a degree that in some places the ma chines were compelled to wait two hours, for a convoy of machines to pass down. We ore now going to run a post on the top of the moun tain. We are now all anxiously await ing for a machine to arrive from M , which is bringing our Christ mas packages. Wa left this one car there on account of needed re pairs and it is expected at any time. How good a few things from the old United States would taste just now. We can only get a very few things to eat and you can guess the principal (vegetable fruit or a meat) just what you choose to call it (macaroni). We are allowed the ration issued the officers, but find it not sufficient, so purchase what vegetables and meat we can find. 1 see from the newspapers, and ■jour letters, that you all in the States are economizing to a great extent, and I think it a good plan, for if you <?ould but see some of the poorer class in this country, you would be willing to make a sacrifice to help them. Trenches and Wires It was interesting to see the re serve trenches and bob-wiring con structed for miles behin'd the lines, which will be used if any nnfore seen thing should happen. They sure seem to believe in "prepared ness" over here and it can be no ticed in more than one place. I wish I might tell you of the many things I have seen behind the lines here for I know it would be inter esting to you, but I know it would not pass the censor. We are now all sitting in the one heated room. T have a sandle sitting on the end of a chair and feel •quite comfor table. but it will not be long until we hear "the planes are overhead." Then our group will break up until they go back after, bombing the town just across the way. We can expect Boche raids any clear night and although it is below freezing point they come and go - just the same. Please turn to Rev'elation. thirteenth chapter, and read. It predicts this state of affairs will end in February. We have long discissions on that point and it is amusing to hear the many views We have some great arguments, hut when you see the condition of af fairs on this side it is enough to prove that we will have many more months of war. It's pretty lonesome out here and even worse tliari in France. Our mail is very irregular, and we can not get newspapers or magazines and cannot talk to the people ex cept through our interpreter, as very little French is spoken in this section. Then, too, to add to this de plorable situation over here, is the food question. T see by "The Har risburg Telegraph," which reaches me in bunches, you all are doing your part in "my home town" to help win the war. Conserve wher ever possible—substitute anything for it—but do impress upon the people the absolute need of bread foodstuff to feed the men who are on this side and to help the starv ing people who tried so hard to de fend their homes—and loved ones. The conditions here in Italy that you read about in thv papers are no exaggerations. The Americans are here to win and they will, but they must have the support'of each.and everyone in the States. Must run along now. Best re gards to all inquiring friends. MEADE.

Standard ships produced in British shipyards in a fortnight are not equal to the sinkings by submarines Sir John R. Ellerman, steamship owner, declared to-day at a meeting of the Chamber of Shipping. He explained that owing to the conditions under which shipowners are carrying on trade and war conditions, marine casualties, apart from enemy action, are double and treble what they were in the days before the war. He s?aid the output of shipping since the war was not sufficient to make good the losses by marine causes alone, leaving the losses by enemy action yet to be made up.

SATURDAY GEORGE WALSH In "Jack Spurlock—Prodigal" VICT OR IA The single feature concerning "Ex perience," the modern morality drama, which comes I'nlvenal to l! o Orpheum Thea- Appcul of t.er for the week of "Bxperlvnce" March IS, is the fact that it lias an appeal for everyone. Because (leorge V. Ho- | bai t, the author, with the inspiration i of genius, hit upon a theme which in stinctively arouses memories and hopes that are universal. The adven tures of Youth upon the Primrose Path are both a warning and a remi niscence. The sight of Wealth, toss ing his gold away on a drunken >pree, recalls the wild and adventur ous days of spendthrift folly. Not only does this act as a deterrnient to er ring youth, but also as a reminder to old age, that such foolishness should cease. The scene where Youth be comes intoxicated is merely the stag ing of an experience which is prac tically universal. Many a boy has said to himself. "Never will I take a drop." but how many men of SO are there who will admit that they have never taken a drink? So this is an •other of life's experiences which comes close home to nearly every one. So it is with gambling; with i the other experiences of Youth: and so on until the end of Mr. llobart's| wonderful allegory with its ever | present lesson. A preachment? Yes, | but a wonderful presentation of facts ! which are too often forgotten. I Curle.v and Welch, a clever team of vaudeville performers, are included on the Majestic program the |\t the last half of the current j Majestic week. They are presenting a skit entitled "Mr. Flynn I Prom I.ynn," that is brimful of good comedy. Both are fine entertainers | and put their material over to many | laughs. Britt Wood, whose imper sonation of a "rube" is making him a popular attraction in every theater > where he appears, is offering a good j j variety turn. Wood is an excellent [ j comedian, and also introduces some ' singing and dancing into his act. Harry Bond and Company, in their laughable skit entitled "Too Many Women." is an added feature of the bill. Two other attractions complete the list. The true man recognizes no sin on the part of his mother, but hallows her memory with Knrle \\ illlams in the sweet tender "A MothcrV Sin" liess which she has shown him. i Such a man is played with touching lidelity by Earle Williams in "A Mother's Sin." the Vitagraph feature which opened a two-day engagement at the Colonial Theater yesterday. It is a drama that glows with strength and splendid love, and tells the story of a sen who is so devoted to the memory of his mother that he delles his own father rather than have her nubility besmirched. It has been said, "You mothers know how deep is your love for your son, but do you know how all-powerful is his devo tion to you?. No matter what you may do, in his eyes you are the ideal woman of creation. Yoif will under stand his feeling when you see 'A Mother's Sin.'

One of the principal features of Mr. Howe's latest programs is China. There is something so impressive and attrac tive about this oldest civilization of the world that It has drawn travelers for centuries past to the shores of the great Chinese Empire and year after year new discoveries of the mysteries of China have added to its lure. It remained for Lyman 11. llowe to bring the real China to the people of the outside world. His photographers waited for live years and at last re ceived permission to take the firs' photographs of "The Forbidden City," the most sacred and mysterious spot in all China. You might visit China a thousand times and not gain one-half the idea of Chinese life and Chinese character that this film portrays. Tlir> co-stars. William Courtenay and Thomas A. Wise, will come to the "General in their entertaining I'OMI ** comedy, "General Post," Orpheum, Tuesday night, by ,T. E. Harold Terry. William Courtenay is seen as the ar dent and heroic tailor, and Tom Wise plays the genial baronet. (lathleen Nesbitt is the heroine. The play be gins before the great war. and Sir Denys (Tom Wise) and Lady Brough ton (Cynthia Brooke) are typically I aloof and patronizing. They know their daughter has become interested in a tailor, who is somewhat of a student, and they are for sending her abroad to escape contact with the commoner. Then the war comes, and because the tailor has been a member of the Territori als and knows his soldiering back ward. he soon becomes a colonel, and finally a brigadier general. And that changes the viewpoint of the Brougli tons entirely. In place of being com mon snobs they become supersnobs. 'and even suggest to their daughter that she throw herself in the way of the general. There is a good bit ol amusing comedy, and not a little sen sible war talk, mixed in . with the sentiment of "General Post. Sentiment, mystery and adventure, mixed in the proper quantities, makes a play that appeals to .•The playgoers of every ag Thirteenth md class; the reason Clin'r" for the tremendous success of Hie J nit teenth Oliair". is that IJayard VeUler h dramatic thrill contains ail of these elements, woven into a story that is told with surpassing skill.
