linrnlaes of Soldiers In Trenches
With toe American Army In
Frehee Feb. 1.?Conditions were
quiet oa too wast sectors all today because
of the falling rain, which show
? ?v m?u vi KiMuuig. o?7vna a row 1
hots from both sides at registered In- 1
terrals, there was little artillery fire.
There was virtually no infantry actlv- 1
ity. 1
Additional details of yesterday's 1
raid showed that only the heroism of
the platoons in the trenches nearest 1
the post raided prevented the enemy 1
from entering the trenches and perhaps
capturing prisoners. 1
American officers at the front have '
com? into possesion of documents 1
said to have been taken from Germans
opposite our positions and '
which dwelt with the treatment to be 1
accorded prisoners. Tho document 1
hows that all prisoners including
commissioned and non-commissioned 1
officers, after being captured, are to '
be kept in cages for four days without ^
food and compelled to stand all of the
time. At the end of the fourth day ]
only small quantities of food are to ]
be given. Although definite infor- '
mation of the purpose is lacking,
some American officers today express- |
ed the belief that the order resulted *
from the difficulties the Germans probably
experienced in extracting infor- ,
mation from the first American prisoners
captured in November. Such
treatment of prisoners, it is thought,
could be designed only to make them
give up military information. I
An elderly lady was buying a New 1
Year's present for her married daughter.
She asked to be shown some
tablecloths: The salesman brought a
pile and showed them to her, but she
said she had seen those elsewhere? '
nothing suited her. "Haven't you '
something new?" she asked.
The clerk then brought another 4
pile and showed them to her.
"These are the newest patterns," 1
he said. "You will notice the center *
is exactly in the middle and the bor- !
der runs around the edge." '
"Isn't that lovely!" said the lady.
"I will take a half a dozen of those." .

Jane Aueten.
Andrew Lang's rhyme on the "Llf?
tnd Letters" plague would not applj
to Jane Austen, the centenary oi
whose death we celebrated recently
<ays the London Chronicle. 81rtj
rears passed away before any biography
of her appeared. Once the ball
was set rolling, however, it soon gath?red
force, and the number of "Lives"
if that most modest of authoressei
which have appeared since have amp!;
made up for ihe previous neglect. 8c
little did Miss Austen like publldtj
that Mr. Austen-Leigh has told us that
luring her lifetime "few of her read
prs knew even her name, and none
knew more than her name," and ot
tier death In 1817 there was no met
tlon of her or her writings In any ol
the periodicals of the day.
