CHINESE TROOPS
CAUSE SURPRISE
ON WAHO LINE
Reaidents of England Not Aware
That Oriental Troop* Were
Helping Allies.
Although close to the fighting
line, residents of England, generally
speaking, know little of what is tak
ing place in France and along the
French and Flanders battlefronts.
They are aware perhaps, that the
Allied forces are composed of a var
iety of nationalities, but it is doubt
ful of many Englishmen, or Ameri
cans, either, for that matter, can
name the different kinds of fighting
units.
It was not known, for instance,
in England, that Chinese troops
were being sent to the French front,
and the unheralded arrival of many
trainloads of the Chinks caused
great surprise among the residents
of the English towns through which
the trains passed enroute to their
port of embarkation.
This information was received by
W. A. Coghill, in a letter arriving
from the old country on the last
mail. The writer mentioned the ar
rival of several trainloads of the
Chinks at Bury Port, apparently fully
equipped to take their places in the
Allied lines. The number of troops
was not disclosed, but the letter in
dicated that the soldiers represented
a considrable force.
Another letter received by Mr.
Coghill told of the escape of a
cousin, Arthur Bromage, from a
British naval vessel which had been
torpedoed by the Germans in the
North Sea. He was on a life raft
for three days and was finally res
cued by a French boat and returned
to England. He is a midshipman.
M. J. Conroy was recently ap
pointed U. S. commissioner at Mc
Carthy, to succeed William O’Con
nor, who was permitted to resign.
There also has been a change of
deputy marshals at that point “for
the good of the service.”
Forty-eight registrants of the Cor
dova district have disappeared. At
any rate, the local exemption board
of that town recently published a
list, containing 48 names of regis
trants, in Class 1, whose addresses
were not known by the board.
Geo. E. Walker, who recently left
Fairbanks to take charge of tne
Alaska hotel, at Cordova, as repre
sentative of W. E. Terrill, is round
ing up oldtimers of the Copper
town, with a view to organizing an
igloo of Pioneers.
The natives and the Eskimos of
Nome when recently questioned in
regard to the strange disappearance
of the ptarmigan, expressed their
belief that the birds had been struck
by an epidemic of some sort as many
of them were found dead in the in
terior.

DRI
AT THE FRONT
_
When our boys get “over there” j
many of them will be quartered in i ^
french homes. They will immedi-1 -
itely b confronted with the problem
of French wines, and on this prob
lem Colonel Azan, a French officer
now in this country to train re
cruits, has this to say in the Survey:
“The idea that our French wines, i
ranging from 10 to 23 per cent of ;
alcohol, are harmless, is worse than
nonsense. I have been at the front
for months now, and have had mv
men drunk again and again from
drink known as our light French
wines. The fact is, men are not 1
satisfied with a thimbleful of wine, j
They drink one bottle, two bottles- - i
before you know it they have re i'ly |
drunk as much alcohol as when they
take whiskey; and the result is the
same—drunkenness.
“I tell you, drunkenness at the
front is an abomination, and if you
want to prevent it you have got to
stop wine drinking just as much as j
distilled liquor drinking.”
The soldier strongly advises the
American soldier to say to his French
host: “My commander-in-chief has
forbidden me to drink anything while
in France.” The French have a
strong regard for discipline, and will
respect that attitude, and after a
bit the abstinence of the American
will be understood, and wine will not
be offered.
While the “rum ration” is still j
given to men before they go “over |
the top”, Colonel Azan doubts the I
practical value of this also. An arti- j
ficial courage is temporary evoked j
by the rum; but the men who do j
not drink it generally take greater j
precautions and have a better chance 1
of coming through alive
