The infantry equipment may be regarded as of equal value, but it is by no means certain that as time passes the Ger- man factories will be able to hear the strain as well as the French and British, and already the troops of the allies are better fed and cared for than those of Germany. The Germans started with an ad- vantage in machine guns, which they no longer possess. In field guns, {he allies have had a superiority «from 'the beginning.

His excuse for his long abgente was the mest : ingenious of all, for He claimed that as all the street lights in Quebec had been extinguished for of. aeroplane attacks, he had lost his way each evening, and had been unable to find the railway sta- tion. Finally, finding that the whole | matter was passed over by the offi cers as a joke rather than a derelic. tion of duty, the sergeant-major for & week or more found himself guité a hero as a consequence of his es. capade, and related all the details ith great gusto to his admiring com- es. pas A Devotee of Music. Col. 8ir Henry Pellatt has a world- wide reputation as a military man, but it is not so generally known that he is almost equally as fond of music, for which he has a very keen ear ahd & highly critical faculty, He is the président of the Natiodal Chorus of 8 0, in which he takes a vary active interest, and is a regular atten- dant at important rehearsals.

CLAIMS TO BE BRITON Proprietor of Wrecked Restaurant Would Reopen. Paris, Nov. 20---Among the Aus: tro-German establishments destroy- ed by exeited crowds here in the course of the mobolization was Ap- pendrodt's restaurant, situated on the Grand Boulevard. The windows were broken and the interior was pil- laged. After having been boarded up for ten weeks, the restaurant has been redecorated and will soon re- open. A sign annoufices that it is the property of H. Appendrodt, a British subject who has ten English, but no foreign: branches. Large type posters also attest that the proprietor has given $5,000 to the Prince of Wales fund, and $10,000 to the British Red Cross, and that. the first weeks' re- ceipts of the new restaurant will be turned over to the military hospital of the ninth section. In view of the violent attacks which the Paris press makes daily against naturalized Aus- tro-German business men, who are alleged to be more dangerous than undisguised Germans, it is doubtful whether Appendrodt, who has been supposed fo. be connected with an Austrian firm of caterers, will be al- lowed to trade here even under the sign of an English tea room.
