Italian Armies Joyously Re- I ceived in Trento J WASHINGTON, Nov. s.—Austrian 1 prisoners captured by the Italians be- I fore the armistice took effect yesterday I are estimated now at half a million. I and the booty taken includes two hun -4 dred and fifty thousand horses. I An official dispatch from Rome today I telling results of the final Austrian de -1 feat says in the army of the Trentino I alone over 150,0 30 prisoners fell into i the hands of the Italians. I “In the army of the Trentino alone I over one hundred and fifty thousand I prisoners were taken,’’ said the cable to 3 lite Italian embassy. I “In Trieste with the Italian occupa- I tion yesterday the enthusiasm of the I people reached a state of delirium. Pro- I visions and clothing arrived in great I abundance. Great activities go on tn I the harbor. Some ships, including tne 4 cruiser Novra. were abandoned in • the 1 port because they were damaged. The ! general military governor assumed also I civil powers and re-established public I service. I Those condemned for political offenses I and left behind will be liberated. I Trieste was abandoned in a disastrous )] state. Even the chief hospital was lit -3 erally despoiled of linen, beds and 3 medicines. 3 ’The Italian troops entering Trento I were received with indescribable en- I thusiasm.

OPOSSUM r .A ~ ' The opu.~ rm. well known in the, ‘ i southern and central states, is trying , lin every wey possible to replace the j i skunk on the retail fur market, and' ; some dyers have had vefry good sue- • i cess in that direction. Indications are 1 1 i that the 1017-18 season will find them ’ ! in wide demand, as the use of the opos- 1 ' ! sum skin in imitation of skunk has ■ j made it a very goed seller. It is a fur i i that the person in average circum- j I stances can buy, .so that lhe animal is worth the while oi anyone to capture as • a money-making venture. 1 A further spur to removal of the i > opossum from the sphere ot lite is tnat every one so removed means security . tor a multitude oi young aiuinai>, I rowls, birds, injects, reptiles and vege-’ , table matter as well, should the ani mal be caught by or tor a colored . person it means also a very tine meal, for there is nothing in tile loed line that approaches “ 'possum and sweet luters’’ tor members ot tnat race. The i chief value of lhe catch is, however, the , fur that goes with it. I The annual is of the smaller type,, . with a form, habit and character pecu i liar to itself. It is said to be a native . i of Virginia, and it is certain that tile i‘ tribe dwells most numerously in the J southern states. The head and body ' measure about two feet in length, witn i! a tail approximately la inches long. The . i color is grayish white, slightly tinged i with yellow, and there are scattering hairs of considerable length, white to , ward their base and brownish toward the point. It has a comparatively soft, . woolly under fur of rather coarse tex ture. Its tail is almost barren of hair. The opossum may be termed a cow ! ' r.rd without giving it serious offense. ! It doesn’t love human beings or dog 3, but otherwise, according to popular be lief, has no especial fear of any living thing, probably for the reason that most other animals hold it in contempt. To satisfy hunger it does its prowling at , night, going after nests of young birds, eggs, smaller quadrupeds, being espe , cially fond of young rabbits. It also relishes cotton rats, mice, reptiles of I various kinds and insects. If these fail to come its way in adequate sup ply the ’possum will not shy from a barnyard where there are young fowls, , and it takes a wise man to devise suc i ecssful means for keeping it out, owing to its climbing and squeezing ability, lit likewise feasts on fruits and ber , vics, its greatest delight being the per simmon on which frost has placed its stamp. Haste is not a thing that characterizes an opossum except in emergencies, and even at its quickest gait there are many quadrupeds that can run over it in a k foot race. It moves awkwardly, as a rule, taking on its best speed when in stinct warns it of serious danger. Should 'it be onl>- a dog in pursuit, tho game will climb a tree high enough to find a I limb just out of reach of the pursuer ' anti sit with cool indifference to the j barking. Let a man appear, however, and it will climb to the limit. If crowded I in pursuit and no large tree Is within reach, it will take to the best possible one, get a tight grip upon a limb with its tail and swing head downward, fre quently doing this so near the ground that a man can pull it down. When I brought down a favorite attitude is ’■ that of a “dead one,” which has given ! rise to the oft heard observation, “play ! ing ’possum." The only time to hunt the opossum, ' cither for its meat or its fur. is the 1 ’ rutuntn. At this time they are in prime ! . cordition only for food purpose, a later period being better for fur. A low jorder i vs intelligence makes the animal very i easy to capture, either by means of the vlu.se or by traps. It will, in fact, walk i ! Into the rudest devices designed to make I II prisoner, but there are standard traps for catching it, just as there are for other fur-bearing animals. No. 1% giv ing best service. The animal is shrewd . r>ough, however, to make its nest in airly well protected* places, such as the hollow of a fallen or standing tree. : under projecting roots. Another evi- , ' •'.tnce of more or less cunning Is found 1 1 in known instances of it having seized 1 .the home of some other animal living I in similar abodes, after having eateu-! such of them as it overcame in the fight I for its possession. It is comparatively easy to tame an ' 1 opossum even when taken at a mature ; age. but the critical homekeeper would '! object strongly to its presence owing to an odor that is most offensive when ! the animal hrs been irritated. p>IG REVENUE BILL TO BE FRAMED EVEN IF PEACE COMES BY TKEODOB3 TII.LEB. WASHINGTON. D. C.. Nov. s.—Pros- J pects for an early peace aren’t to in terfere with the framing of the eight billion dollar war revenue bill now be fore the senate committee on finance. Members of the committee said there wmild be no halt in the revenue pro gram. In the absence of Chairman Simmons, Senators Smith of Georgia, Thomas of Colorado and Smoot of , Utah were In substantia! accord that the eight billion dollar bill would be passed regardless of the outcome of the peace movement. The cost of the war to the U. S. has jlready been enormous, estimated costs of demobilization and reconstruction are I yet to come. A tax bill to raise eight billion dollars is regarded today as just as essential as when the house began to consider it several months ago. Tn a large measure the money has al ready been spent and taxes must go hand in hand with bonds to pay for America’s participation in the war. and possibly for the liquidation of some of ’.he loans to the allies. There are I number of men in public life who be | lieve that in the long run this country would not demand payment of all the money loaned the allied nations, who . bore the brunt of civilization’s battles i before the United States entered the I war. Persons who expeet lighter taxes be-' I cause of the pence talk are due/ for dis i' • ppointment. The eight billion dollar j • ‘ bill is scheduled for report as soon . i the senate committee makes its final ; — : «ion. ’ kUJ W»i ■n ull ill wi ■■ ”-—•— .. - ' ■affix K E£ SSK& SP Covers everything in which feathers are used, such -raJ?

DIAZ STRUCK JUST ' AT RIGHT MOMENT : TO SMASH FOEH i WASHINGTON. Nov. Choice ot, | i the right moment, efficient direction of i the attacks and the rapidity of execu ' tion were the three big military factors that contri outed to the crushing Aus : trian defeat. Major General Emilio Gu ! glclraotti, militaiy attache at the Ital ' ian embassy, expalined today. i “The happy successes of the allies on i the French front, the withdrawal of Bul garia and Turkey from the war. left J Austria for the first time, although witli forces greatly superior in numbers, alone against us," he said. “Bad weather had begun to make the [ I provisioning of the armies in the moun i tain zone difficult and swollen streams ' produced the same situation along th. I Piave. Such conditions narrowed the , Italian front of attack and made coun ! ter attacks by the enemy on our flanks i impossible. . ; “From the opening of the offensive ; the evident aim of General Diaz was t<> divide the Austrian armies in the plain i from those in the mountains. Hence, the rapid, vigorous ar.d successful push toward Vittorio Vaneto. Ponte Neil Alpl and Longarone. Dislocation of transports in the district sectors was effected with ease. “The rapidity of the offensive is une- ! qualed in history. The initial bombard ment began Octob; r 2-Fand on November 4 the Italian flag floated over Trento. and Tries*. “At 3 o'clock yesterday aftprnoon the , final triumph of the Italian arms over, the Austrians had been determined, it ' is a triumph which ten days ago seeme ! far, distant, but in which Italy and her soldiers have always have unshakable faith, even in the saddest moments last year.” All Italy is ablaze with celebrations, disaptches to the Italian embassy re port.
