i in its work.
The Belgian-Dutch border now is
practically closed to passenger traffic,
only persons of official business being
permitted to pass, but members of the
commission are allowed to travel back
. and forth without the slightest hind
rance.
In Belgium the shipments of food
stuffs consigned to the American Min
ister. Brand Whitloek. and in care of
the commission are permitted to pro
j ceed with minimum delay. The Ger
man officials have treated the members
I ot' the commission with great considera

Mr. Bell praises equally the Dutch

j the Coblenz the first American relief

time in histoiy a ship was permitted to

Roles in War Zone
Feel Most the Rigors
of Martial Law
MANY ARE DRIVEN
TO MENIAL JOBS
During First Days of War Many of
These Artists Were Allowed to Sing
on the Streets, and Many Good 1
Ones Eked Out an Existence
Correspondence of the Associate. U P? ess. ;
Paris. Nov. 13.—Poor dramatic art-|
ists unqualified for roles in the theatre 1
of war are among those who feel most '
the rigors of martial law. One of the I
baritones of the Opera C'oinique is dri.'r
iug a taxicab. Others have been driven
j to seek the most menial occupations.
During the first days of the war mauy
[of these artists were allowed to sins;
| in the streets, and really good artists
| were heard .in the courts of apartment
liiuldings, but on account of the crowds I
they drew this means of eking out an
I existence was forbidden.
Notoriety of "Can-Can" Gone
One familiar with the night life of
j Paris would hardly seek patriotic emo
jtions at that music hall to which the
"Can-Can" gave a certain notoriety,
: 'tnd yet this place until recently closed
! was nightly the scene of impressive in
i cideuts characteristic of the few dis
j traditions the city offers. All amuse
ments, if they msiv be so called, are
! ensored to the feeling of the moment.
At the music hall in question the or
chestra struck up "The Marseillaise."
A tall Algerian rifleman rose from a
front seat. His right hand was in a !
sling and'it seemed to embarrass him.
He hesitated an instant and then his
left went up in an impressive gesture
to his red fez. While he stood "at
attention" a little trooper in the blue
red trimmed Belgian cap clapped his j
liauds, jumped to his feet and saluted.
The entire audience was up then and
the theatre resounded with the inspiring
strains of the battle hymn.
Belgian Trooper 3heds Tears
When the last notes died away the
ceiling rang with applause, but above
the din cries were heard of ''La Brab
anconne! La Brabanconne!'' A big |
tear rolled down the cheek of the little
Belgian trooper as he listened to his !
national anthem, but neither he nor the I
Algerian rifleman moved a muscle. |
Tliev stood there 'at attention" until I
the English and ftusisan hymns had I
been played, until the lights faded and
the moving pictures appeared on the ■
screen.
Moving pictures are ruthlessly cut i
out whenever they strike a lightor vein j
than prescribed bv the authorities and. |
for the same reason, have failed the !
feeble attempts that have been made to
bring the cafe concert back to life.
Orchestra Concerts Allowed
Orchestral concerts are allowed, but
they, too, must conform to the regula
tions and the programs invariably in
clude the patriotic airs of the allied na
tions, military marches, marching songs j
aud generally such familiar airs as call |
up elevated sentiments. German com-j
positions are rigorously barred.
In spite of the small number of even-
I ing entertainments, the audiences are '
not large and they are chiefly made ,ip ;
of foreigners remaining in Paris. '
Their attitude for the most pan it dig
nified; in the rare cases where they |
I have failed to be so the place has I
I promptly been closed. •

50 CARLOADS OF PROVISIONS .

| —Representatives of the Petrograd Re
! lief Fund for Poland arrived here to
; day from the capital with fifty car- ,
| loads of provisions for destitute faini- | '
lies and 200,000 rubles ((130,000) in
money for the relief of the needy.
Russian soldiers,continue to unearth |
near Warsaw German machine guns,
rifles and ammunition which had been
concealed by the forces of t:ni|>eror
William in mounds on the battlefields,
which had tieen }(iven the appearance
of gttives. The presumption here is
that the Germans intended to utilize i
this material in a contemplated new at
tack on Warsaw.
JAP CASUALTIES AT TBING-TAU
REPORTED TO BE OVER 1,500'
Pekin, Nov. 13.—A Japanese mili- j
tarv report received in Pekin sets forth |
that the casualties to the Japanese i
army before Tsing-Tau were something j
over 1,500. But, according to reports j
from Tsing-Tau itself received in Pe
kin before the Gorman wireless ceased
operating, this number does -not repre
sent the correct total. The. British lost'
12 men killed and til men wounded.
The Japanese recital indicates that |'
the German losses were small for the 1
reason that. t|ie German garrison sur
rendered as soon as the Japanese in- j
fantry stormed the trenches. '
