With tfie French Armies in
the Field, June 28.—How a
French regimental priest, his
only arma a sacredotal cross,
single-handed, captured 125
German prisoners in the Drag-
on’s Cave, was the astounding
story coming ♦« light here to-
day.

chambers more than -uu yards
long by 250 wide and under-
lying the Chemln Des Dames.
It was In the exact center of the
sector wherein the French re-
cently achieved their great gain.
Thq_ priest accompanied his
troops on the charge and then
stopped here and there behind
to minister to the wounded pnd
dving.
While on this mission of
mercy, he was astonished to see
a German, his clothing aflame,
rush out of the small secret
opening. The priest beat out
the flames on the German,
ordered him to march to the
reer and then himself descended
thru the small opening of the
cave.
There he found a whole com-
pany of Germans. Advancing

Annapolis, Aid.. June 28.—-One
hundred and ninety-nine of the
naval academy class of 1918 to-
day went out to “a war with
no illusions,” a year ahead of
schedule.
The youthful officers—second
class to be graduated in three
months—received their diploma*
from Secretary Daniels with con-
gratulations on the call lire of
men the war has brought under

inson-st, Wednesday, will spend
some time at the bedside of tho
injured boy.
This was the promise Mrs. H.
Bickle, mother of the boy, ob-
tained from Wright, Thursday,
at the hospital. Wright came
down in answer to the mother's
plea.
"I could not have lived, if he
had not come back to see my
boy,’’ said the mother, as she
walked in the hospital hall. She
kept vigil all night. “I wanted
him to see just what agony my
little fellow is suffering.”
Almost Sure to Die,
“Tho doctor has told me that
my boy is almost sure to die,
that only a miracle can save
him. I saw the operation on
him. and I believe that his
chance is slight.”

Washington, June 28.—Beers
and wines began their battle for
life on the senate floor today.
Their whisky ally is already
definitely vanquished.
Food control itself temporarily
has been lost sight of In the pro-
hibition fight.
With the outcome uncertain,
hope of food control by Juyl 1
has been abandoned. Opposi-
tion to the bill itself has almost
entirely vanished but in its
place has sprung up violent an-
tagonism to Its dry amendment.
8enators who would favor the
food control bill will vote
against It ^n account of the
liquor clause.
Many who oppose prohibition
under guise of food control now
will attack the measure. Others
will assail the amendment pro-
hibiting beer and liquor, but
placing the life of wines in the
presidents’ hands, as “discrim-
inatory.”

“Need I paint the picture.
Senator Lewis, of Illinois said,

held high above his head, the
priest ordered them to surren-

the priest negotiated with the
German officers—and they fin-

arms.
The priest turned and clam-
bered out of the cave. Just out-
side he found a medical officer

the surgeon and the priest—
both non-combatants — returned
to the Dragon’s Cave. Then the
German officers formally sur-

With the British Armies tn
the Field, June 28.—Canadian
troeps today occupied the town
of Eleu Dlt Leauvette, one-half
mile southwest of Lens. Their

lage, penetrated even further
towards the coal metropolis of
France.
This is the nearest the Brit-

Unless heroic action is taken

ing a natural death for lack of
funds Monday night when school
board meets, it was learned
Thursday.
Nearly a month late, petitions

Washington, June 28.—When
your boy is drafted, found physi-
cally fit and finally lands at
one of the 10 cantonments for
conversion into a real soldier
there will be issued to him
amon other things the following:
A cap, a khaki suit, several
olive-drab shirts, knapsack with
various necessary toilet acces-
sories, marching or field shoes,
woolen blanket, rifle ammuni-
tion, ad the half of a field shel-
ter tent.
This sounds simple enough,
but multiply it by 500,000 and
you realize that supplying your
boy and the other 499,999 boys
is some job.
It means that the government
will have bought the biggest
quantities of certain materials
ever purchased and that every
factory capable of turning out
certain kinds of goods will have
been located and put to work.
For instance, the committee
on supplies under Julius Kosen-
wald has to find leather and
factories to convert it into shoes.
Contracts have been let for
2,600,00ft pairs of shoes.
The depot quartermaster of
the army at Philadelphia needed
thousands of bolts of piece

arranged to supply over a million
woolen army blankets, one for
each man. One of the most dif-
ficult jobs was to secure cotton
duck for tents.
The munitions board has tak-
en care of the purchase of arms
and ammunition. There were
not enou ,h factories in the
country geared up to the manu-
facture of Springfield rifles, so
thase that have been making En-
field rifles for England were
pressed into service. The E11-
fields have been slightly modi-
fied to take the same ammuni-
tion as the Sprlngflelds.
As a result, one million rifles,
wth necessary ammunition, are
already In hand.
tempt to “laugh” the prohibi-
tion amendment oft the measure.
As it is they are rallying
amendments of every descrip-
tion, some of which will pro-
hibit candy, chewing gum and
other luxuries on the same
ground as liquors and beers-
because they are luxuries, man-
ufactured from foodstuffs.
The battle beginning today
promises to be at once spectacu-
lar, violent and extremely funny.
But behind it all, the food con-
trol bill is threatened with pro-
longed idleness and Its ultimate
passage before the early har-
vests hopeless.
COCCHI CONFESSION
INVOLVES NO POLICE
By United Press.
Bologna, Italy, June 28.—Al-
fredo Cocchi has involved no
New York politicians or police-
men In any part of his disjointed
confession of the murder of
Ruth Cruger.
This and other facts came to
light when officials. relatives
and friends of the Cochis were
questioned.
He Insists the murder was his
first crime. He is said to be in
the midst of one of V-; fits of
extreme depression.
M. Baroncin, a brother-in-law
of the murderer’s wife, shed most
light during examination. He
disclosed that Cocchi is a de-
generate by herirlt.v. His own
father was forced to leave New
York some time between 191.2
and 1915.

Washington, Jnne 28.—Com-
munication lines for the Ameri-
can army in Franre are the long-
eet and most troublesome mill*
tary men have encountered.
A three-thousand mile (rail
across the trackless ocean must
be kept open for transports of
men and supplies. The only
lines comparing at all with the
present ones were those in tha
Boer war or the Philippine in-
surrection, but they afforded no
especial problem, inasmuch aa
no submarines then swarmed in
the deep.
Heavy naval patrolling will
bo necessary to keep the com-
munication lines safe, and thie
will require a haevy system of
destroyer or cruise convoy.
Across the 3,000 mile trail Am-
merlca will send her hundreda
of thousands of men, her muni-
tions and her tremendous food
supplies for the army.
