STARTLING HEADLINE
In the first line of battle there were
5,000 colored troops, supported by a
second line some distance in the rear
of 10,000 white Yankees, Henry, a
ottered soldier, recently arrived, was
plainly nervoua Some of the other
boys began to "kid" him.
"Suppose." asked one of them, "sup
pose. Henry, that ten million billion
trillion of them bush Germans sud
denly popped ont of the ground here?'
"Well?" asked Henry.
"What would you do?"
"I ain't tellin' whut I'd do," said
Henry, "but I know whut the rest of
you would do, and I know the papers
back home to-morrow morning would
have big headlines: 'Ten thousand
white folks trampled to death!" —On-

EYRE BILL GOES
THROUGHSENATE
Despite Penrose Declaration
the Measure Gets Thirty
Votes
In spite of Senator Holes Penrose's
declaration against it, the Eyre bill
repealing the nonpartisan judicial
act was passed in the Senate. The
vote was SO to 11 and following are
the Senators who voted against the
measure: Barr, Craig, Dewitt, Gray,
Herron, Leiby, Martin. Miller, Salus,
Sassaman and Snyder.
Senator Smith, Dauphin, voted
against his own bill which would
raise the salaries of the officers of
the Workmen's Compensation Board.
Under the provisions of the meas
ure the chairman of the State Work
ingmen's Compensation Board would
receive $8,500, in place of the $7,500
he gets now, and the other members
of the board would receive SS,OOO,
as contrasted with their present sal
ary of $7,000.
Senator Smith said that he had
presented the bill at the request of
the Attorney General, and that he
did not believe that the members of
the compensation board should re
ceive more in some instances than
the heads of State departments. The
measure passed finally, 30 to 7.
A resolution appropriating SIO,OOO
toward the expense of the conven
tion of the Pennsylvania Branch of
the American Legion, composed of
men who saw service in the war
against Germany, which is scheduled
to meet in this city September 23,
24 and 25, was presented to the
Senate last night by Senator Leslie,
Allegheny.
More than a half score of meas
ures were passed finally by the Sen
ate last evening, including the Heat
on bill, which raises in some di
stances the salaries of the legisla
tive employes.
Senator Davis, Lackawanna, pre
sented a bill which would make it
a crime to cause a mine cave under
any cemetery. The responsibility for
the damage is placed upon the of
ficers of the company involved in
the damage.
Senator Scott S. Leiby, Perry, was
absent from his seat in the Senate:
last night when Senator Eyre's res
olution calling for an investigation
of alleged unfairness to Twenty-
Eighth Division officers in France,
went through without a dissenting
vote.
The Senator from Perry was in ;
his seat immediately before the res- j
olution was called for a vote and re
turned soon after it had been passed, |
but his vote in the negative was |
lacking. Last week, when Senator >
Eyre introduced the resolution. Sen-,
ator Leiby immediately raised ob- !
jections to its passage, and had it j
laid over for a day. The House j
concurred.
VALUABLE ASSET
"How many in your family?" asked
the census taker.
"Nine dawgs. fourteen chillun an'
the old woman." answered the resident
of Squirrel Hollow.
"Dogs don't I count"
"They do in these here parts, strang
er. Chillun come an' chillun go an' a
wife is sorter wished on a man, but as
long as the mountain's are full of pos
sums and coons, dawgs is dawgs."

ROTAN BILLS GO
TO GOVERNOR
Only One Vote in Opposition
to the Much Discussed
Measures
'I Tho Philadelphia District Attor
l uey bills, which were the subject of
IJ a lively Senate hearing last month,
> I were passed finally In the House
> with one vote in opposition. They
i are the first of the much discussed
, Philadelphia bills to pass. They
. give the District Attorney his own
detective force of sixteen men under
a chief county detective; add four
I assistant district attorneys to the
■ staff, and establish fees.
Reconsideration of the defeat of
the bill enlarging the Allegheny
1 county board of tax revision was
1 accomplished after a long debate be
-1 tween Allegheny county members
' and a verification of the roll. The
vote was 103 to 72. When recon
; sidered, the bill was put on the post
poned calendar. Messrs. Martin,
> Vickerman, McVicar and Marcus
assailed the bill as a useless Increase
1 of places and it was defended by
Mr. Simpson,
i The West bill to increase salaries
of legislators was recalled from the

second time amid considerable
• laughter. The bill was amended af-
I ter having been recalled some time
, ago.
' Resolutions calling on Congress
to enact pensions for Spanish War
veterans were adopted on motion of
Mr. Reber, Schuylkill.
The Senate bill reorganizing the
force of the State Insurance Depart
ment was passed and resolutions of
sympathy with Mr. Sprowls, Wash
ington, on the death of his father.
Resolutions calling upon the

Tells of Experience
in the Far East
I Tokio. June 3.—Major John Reif
| snider, formerly of Frederick, Md„
| now of Tokio, who is attached to
jthe American Red Cross in Siberia,
has arrived hero preparatory to
escorting 1.500 Czecho-Slovak sol
diers from Vladivostok via the Suez
Canal to Trieste and thence to
I rague. The troops are chiefly those
incapacitated by illness.
Major Reifsnider, who is assistant
to c olonel R. B. Teusler, of Virginia,
the head of the Siberian Red Cross,
has had some exciting experiences
in Russia. He has conducted Red
Cross trains to Omsk on two differ
ent occasions. Difficulties were cre
ated by Cossacks as he conducted
his trains into the heart of Siberia,
he said. Small detachments living
in railroad cars in various places
would connect their coaches to his
train on the plea that they must
reach the front. Sometimes the cars
numbered nine and ten, thus over
burdening the long Red Cross train.
! ti ARTILLERY IN THE WAR
LJ" rh 's division believes that this is
an artillery war. We believe that,
given a thorough artillerv prepara-I
tion, good infantry can advance and
'I, u Ge rman position up to the
1 mit of the range of the guns. When
tliat range is reached the infantry
must stop and a new artillery prepa
ration be begun."
The speaker was the commander of
one or the most famous British at
tack divisions, giving me a resume of
nis tactics at the close of my first
day of war in January, 1918. We were
sitting in his hut in one of the ruined
villages of Picardy. A few thousand
yards in front of us lay the ridge
i over whose summit peeped the spires
of Cambrai and along which ran the
i mass ef wire and intrenchments of
the Hindenburg line. Even then on
the other side of that ridge German
divisions were practicing for the ef
fort which was seriously to modify
the general's tactics as thus laid down
and to prove that under certain condi
tions infantry could push forward
without waiting for a new artillerv
preparation. But in spite of this the
i essence of his statement remained
:true through all the varying fortunes
[of the coming months. The war re
.mained an artillery war to the end
of the chapter.
| The two new weapons of the de
fense, barbed wire and the machine
! gun, bad completely changed the ter
rain for attacking troops. Human be
[lngs whether mounted or dismounted,
while struggling with the obstruction
[of the one could he almost instantly
'destroyed by the concentrated power
l of the other and artillery, until al
j most the close of the war was the
only weapon which could beat down
[the one and search out and destroy
the other. Even the tank, when it
| appeared on the scene to supplant
: and assist the artillery of the at-
I tack, only served to create a new
| demand for artilery on the defense.
,The very same division in whose camp
II was sitting, participated in the sur
i prise attack on Cambrai in Novem
ber. 1917, following behind the first
I tanks used in that way, and its as
isault was stopped for an entire day
[by the prompt and courage of a
single German artillery officer who
j pulled his guns into the open and
■ potted the British tanks as. one by
one, thev loomed over the sky-line in
I front of him.—Henry G. Stimson, in

was defeated in the House of Rep

Mr. Wallace, Lawrence, declnred
