REFUGEES FROM ALSACE - LOR-
RAINE ANXIOUS TO RETURN
TO FORMER -HONES
French Front, March 22.-Germany
just now maintains almost absolute
silence in regard to Alsace and Lor-
raine, but the many thousands of
refugees who have waited patiently
in France and her colonies since 1871,
for the time when they shall be
able to return to their former homes,
continue eagerly to discuss what they
consider their certain redemption.
Some idea of how large is the num-
ber of these exiles may be gathered
from the fact that 160,000 residents
of Alsace and Lorraine accepted the,
option of leaving their homes and tak-
i g up their residence in France after
those provinces passed under German
rule by the treaty of Frankfort on
May 10, 1871. The Prussian author-
ities annulled 100,000 of those op-
tions because the people failed to
leave within the time specified in the
treaty.
Great Exodus
The annullment of the options did
not prevent the Alsatians and Lor-
rainians from leaving when they had
made arrangements for doing so.
From 1875 to 1880, 35,000 of them

BRITISH FARJMERS COMPELLED
TO CULTIVATE LAND HEAVILY
London, March 22. - The British
food production department is taking
drastic steps to see that the country

does not suffer from the neglect and
kindifference of unpatriotic farmers.
Farms which remain under-cultivated
in spite of pressure from the coun-
ty agricultural committees are being
taken over and cultivated by the com-'
mittees, usually with war-prisoner
labor. The central committee reports!
that "most farmers are doing their
best, but there are some bad excep-
tions."
At Buckingham, the local court, in
,
t
,ply to a request from the board of
griculture, fined a negligent farmer

,rm in 14 days. On the same day,
Le Irish department of agriculture
)nfiscated 514 acres of land from
ord Ashton.

spring Fever Gets
Another Victim
.He had a great ambition; he was
going to be a second McLaughlin or
Murray, and he started out yesterday!
to get all the possible practice before
the Spring Tennis Tournament. He
carefully drew on his rubbers over
his new buckskin shoes and waded
forth. He looked like a regular one,
a loyal yellow and blue striped shirt,
white flannel trou and an A. S. B. tie,
around his brow a silken kerchief. He
found the game, much to his disap-
pointment, a wilting affair. Slowly
his garnients became slithery, they
clung to his warm hide. The stripes
ran from his A. S. B. tie and made
cunning little varied colored dots
across his heaving chest. The mean
old ball hit his knee and put there
an ugly splosh of mud. Panting,
sighing, he swore "I will never play
this T hound game," anid it was even
so, for presently he melted entirely
and seeped down through the clay
courts. I died of shock and buried
myself beneath the north left hand4
court; would all others who tell such
lies do otherwise.
WOMEN URGED TO REGISTER
THIS MORNING AT GYMNASIUM
Yesterday's work in registration of
women has brought the total number
up to 400, according to figures taken
at the close of yesterday afternoon.
Owing to the party given in Barbour
gymnasium this afternoon, registra-
tion will be held only in the morning
hours, from 9 to 12 o'clock. This is
the last .chance to register at the,
gymnasium.
Next week a house to house can-,
vass, the exact nature of which has
not yet been determined, will be made
to complete the registration. Al-
though not compulsory, everyone is
requested to register. To facilitate
the work next week everyone who has
not yet registered is urged to do so
this morning at the gymnasium.
ured Now
2. Cadets, to whom uniforms have
been issued, will wear the prescribed
uniform. The following changes in the
uniform are authorized for this march.

without hatcords, may be worn. Olive
drab shirts may be substituted for
the blouse. Black neckties, only, may
be worn.

ing four hours of march..
BY ORDER OF LIEUT. MULLEN:
L. J. WILLIAMS,
1st Lt., P. S., retired, Adjutant
On account of the unsatisfactory
condition of the ground on the north
side of Ferry field, the cadets have
been ordered not to drill on this por-
tion of the field, stated the military
authorities last night. All the move-
ments must be executed on the south
,end.

in the band. This includes field mu-
'sic, and members of the R. 0. -T. C.
and Varsity bands. The men drill
every Wednesday evening in Water-
man gymnasium. After the drill, a
short practice is held. It is probable
that the combined bands will partici-
pate in one or more R. 0. T. C. re-
views this spring.
Make up classes will be held from
9 to 11 o'clock this morning in Water-
man gymnasium.

ture to be delivered at 3 o'clock Fri-

and the last was made during the

panied the professor.
