By Tne -'ted London, Mar. 1. There were three Americans in that marvelous Christmas truce in my part of the trenches; Eugene Jacobs, of Pawtucket, R. Victor cnapman, a with each other; You felt their handshakes double handshakes, with both hands in your heart. The truce was arranged.

There was to be no more firing for one hour and the men from both sides were to come out and bury their dead. The soldiers flocked from both trenches. They rushed to each other and shook hands. "I want to have your photograph," said the German lieutenant to our party. He sent back for his camera and we enemies stood with our arms about each other's shoulders in horseshoe formation while the lieutenant snapped his camera, "If I don't have a chance to send you the prints before the war is overt' he said, "I shall see that you get them afterwards." And he took our addresses.

At last the bodies were buried. The hour of truce had passed. But the men did not go back to the trenches. In groups all about that once terrible strip of No Man's land the Germans and the Legionaries sat talking or playing cards, exchanging tobacco and and joking and laughing. "Don't blame us," was the burden of the Germans' talk.

"It isn't our fault that we are fighting. We don't know what it's all about. have wives and children and we're just the same kind of men that you are. We're damned fools and so is everybody who is fighting." And our talk ran the same. It wasn't until the sun began to go down that the groups broke up.

"We're to have a band in our trenches tonight and we want you to hear it," said the Germans as they bade us goodbye and as we shook the hands that might slap us on the morrow. After supper we heard a sudden blast of music that thrilled us. A little German band had crept into the German trenches and announced itself with a grand chord. Then came the unexpected strains of the The Frenchmen went almost frantic with delight. Then came our turn when the band played "It's a Long, Long Way to Tipperary." George Ullard, our negro cook, who came from Galveston, got out a mouth organ and almost bursted his lungs playing "Die Wacht am Rhein." The silence in the German trenches was a thousand times more eloquent than the blast of cheers that came when George had finished.

There was no shooting all night until 6 in the morning when the sound of rifles was heard far down the trench. But Nadeem couldn't measure human nature unerringly. He had been the first to feel the holiday spirit of htaryaru man num New York, and my- rv i sen. we Deiougeu I to the Foreign X.eg-CW ion wlch had been ed, at the regular morning shooting hour, that the German trenches were silent, Nadeem began to make a joke of it. Jle drew a target on a board, fastened it on a pole and stuck it above the trench, shouting to the Germans: "See how well you can shoot." Wlithin a minute the target had been bull's eyed.

Nadeem pulled it down, pasted little bits of paper where shots had struck and held it up again, so that the Germans could see their score. In doing so, Nadeem's head appeared above the trench, and we heard him talking across the No Man's land. Thoughtlessly I raised my head too. Other men did the same. We saw hundreds of German heads appearing.

Shouts filled the air. What miracle had happened? Men laughed and cheered. There was Christmas light in our eyes and I know there were Christmas tears in mine. There were smiles, smiles, smiles, where in days before there had been only rifle barrels. The terror of No Man's land tell The sounds of happy voices filled the air.

AVe were all unhumanly happy for that one glorious instant in which we all English, Portuguese, Americans and even Nadeem, the Turk, and that, savages as we had been, cavemen as we were, the awfulness of war had not filled the corners of our hearts where love and Christmas live. I think Nadeem was first to sense what had happened. He suddenly jumped out of the trench and began waving his arms and cheering. While he was doing this, a ponderous German with a happy smile that exposed two rows of glittering white teeth, climbed out of the trench and shouted: "Lieutenant Schroeder presents compliments to your lieutenant and desires to know if he will select four men and come to the middle of the neutral territory, to arrange for a truce for burying the dead." Our lieutenant agreed in an instant. I was one of the four men he selected and I shall never forget how I felt as we advanced to meet the four German soldiers and their lieu-, tenant who were coming toward us.

We felt as if we wanted to throw our arms about these men; they told us later in the day that the same desire was upon them. The hatred of war had been suddenly withdrawn and it left a vacuum in which we 4 I 1 il ll li! made up In Pans, of men of all nationalities and we liad been in the trenches for twenty consecutive days, before Christmas dawned.

Medical men, attorneys and chiropractors had a discussion that waxed warm at times before the senate committee on education and public welfare Wednesday over the chiropractic art of curing disease and also whether or not there was any necessity for the bill introduced by Senator Tomkins by request, up for a hearing before the committee. There was a large audience of chiropractors. A. C. Umbreit of Milwaukee appeared against the bill on behalf of the state board of medical examiners.

Former Lieut. Gov. Morris of La Crosse appeared in favor 'of the bill. Mr. Umbreit took the ground that the bill would create another commission, which was unnecessary.

He also claimed if the bill introduced by the State Medical society should, be passed there would be no necessity for this bill, as the chiropractors would be; brought under the new law.
