MONUMENT TO HOHENZOLLERN IN LONELY RAVINE IN ARGONNE Artois en STELLE HIECT S.MI. KAISER: WILHELMD SINE AN DIE. SCHWAREN CAD Memorial of Kaiser's Visit. By J. R.

GROVE. feet. square, stood on a big flat rock Everyone knows of the fondness of Villiam Hohenzollern for secing monuments to himself in public places. I found a memorial to the former kaiser in a deserted spot in the Argonne region. It was on the edge of a ravine.

Thick bushes grew about it. Hundreds of soldiers passed, near it and never saw it. A French lieutenant had lived four days in a dugout within a stone's throw of the monument and did not know of its presence. But front of the stone memorial the ravine formed a bowl which would hold thousands of soldiers and in this bowl had gathered the flower of the Gerinan army to be spurred to battle war lord. Auf Dieser Stelle Hielt.

20-11-14 S. M. Kaiser Withelm 11. Eine Ansprache an die Schwaben. Translated, it says: this spot, November 20, 1914, His Majesty Kaiser, Delivered a Speech to the Swabians." The Swabian troops were the shock troops of the kaiser.

The monument, block of granite five feet in height and perhaps three which served as a natural platform from which the emperor could speak to the soldiers below. The ravine is near Binarville, fully 10 miles within the Hindenburg line, which was the German position at that time. Nearby was a railhead which had been that of the army. of the crown prince in his futile attacks on Verdun. "The trees of the forest of Argonne screened the approaches to this natural amphitheater.

Its walls rose a hundred feet. Around its sides in terraces were built officers' quarters which showed evidence of long occupation. Beds hand' carved, chairs hand made, with infinite patience, furnished the log huts. On the doors geometrical designs in straw had been worked as ornaments. siabs of stone furnished stairways from terrace to terrace.

In their hasty departure in October the Germans had not time to remove or destroy even their official papers and desks and huts were littered. Put to the navancing Americans the ravine was out a ravine, no place to by pause. And the kaiser's monument drew no attention. ARM HAS GREAT POSTAL SYSTEM FOR HANDLING SOLDIERS' MAIL By C. C.

LYON. The American doughboy In France has become the world's most prolific letter writer, There's one central postoffice for the army over here, that each day handles more than 600,000 pieces of intraFrance mail: by "intra-France," meaning letters that one American soldier writes to another who in in France. This enormous volume of mail matter does not take into account at all the milliens of letters that the American soldier writes horse every week. The officers in charge of the army's central postoffice formerly superintendent of mails Was, large American city, "Handling mail at home was child's play compared to what it is over here," he said, "for the reason that nearly every unit in our army is constantly on the move, and each day has seen thousands of men changed about from ne outfit to another. "We find that Must about half of all letters that are written.

by one sold in France to another are incorrectly addressed. "This makes it necessary to employ several hundred men who do nothing correct addresses. but, connection with the postoffice 1 the army statistical bureau, where is kept, right up to the minute. a card index of every soldier in France. As soon As a man is transferred from one outfit to nother or leaves his company to go to a hospital that fact is sent to the bureau and a notation made on his card.

When mail addressed to him comes back to this office, having failed to connect with him, we look up his card and forward his mail." There has been a vast improvement in the mail service in recent montha, and it is not often that complaints are now heard that a boy has gone two or three months without a letter from home, and then, in one day, receives packet of 10 or 12. This condition was the outgrowth of the sudden expansion of the army in France. With new troops pouring in at the rate of a quarter of a million EL month and thousands of transfers being made every day, it was, for a while, next to impossible to follow up a boy's various changes with any degree of speed. The army's letters to the folks at home go direct to the port cities, and there are put aboard the first. American ship salling.

Chicago, Dec. that an increased movement of corn from rural was now assumed, weakened the corn market today after an early advance, The close was heavy, 3-8 cent to 15-8 cents net lower, with Janvary $1.30 7-8 to $1.31 and February $1.30 3-8 to Oats finished unchanged to 3-8 cent off, and provistons unchanged to a decline of 50 centa. Shelling of corn was represented a8 being pushed in all directions and it was said farmers in ceneral Illinola were hauling corn at every station.

Consequent gossip that free marketing would result gave an evident advantage to the bears, especially as If general good weather prevalled. Slowness of eastern demand was also Landicap to the bulls, who during the first half of the session had been able to lift prices in the temporary absence of any aggressive selling, and had been aided by commission houses that yesterday, were conspicuous on the bear side. Later, however, conditions were reversed, and in the last hour empecially sellers had the whip hand. Oats displayed relative strength. Seaboard demand fair, and country offerings light.

Provisions receded with corn and hogs. Pork was neglected, as government purchases were said to take maot of the meat which would be made into that product.
