Dickinson, N. D. Aug. 6.—With a very vivid’ realization of what the world's war means, Alexander Vap- lepu is back on his ranch near Dick- inson, after a three-year adventure which reads like an Arabian Night's tale. Papelu returned to Russia in 1914 to settle up business affairs and to wed an old sweetheart who awaited him there. Three days prior to the date upon which he was to sail with his bride for his new homeland, Aus- tria declared war on Serbia; Russia drafted her first army, and Papelpu was inclined in the draft. He was an American citizen, having been grant- ed full papers in Stark ‘county in 1914, but he had lost his copy of his citizenship papers while on the| ocean; he had no passports, and the land of the bear claimed him. Be- fore another copy of his citizenship papers, for which he immediately ap- plied, could reach him, he partici- pated in the battle of Prsmysal, in which he and his fellow soldiers cap- tured tho’ fortress and 125,000 Austri- ans. When the Russian retreat be- fore the overwhelming German forces ‘began in 1915, Papelpu, with 5,000 men, was left to hold the fort until Russian supplies had boen taken to the rear. After withstanding a heavy German artillery fire three days and three nights, the fort surrender. ed on the fourth day, and Papelpu became a German prisoner of war, German Prison Camps. ‘His tales of German prison camps and the privations which Russian pri- soners suffered there are almost un- believable. The prisoners, on the verge of starvation, ate roots and Grasses in the ficids, died from ex- haustion at the tasks which they were compelled to perform. and were Benerally treated as less than dogs, he declares. Later Papelpu, with fel- low prisoners, was transferred to an Austrian camp, where they fared somewhat better. During the seven- teen months which he spent as a pris- oner in Austria, he was regaled with to sell his labor to farmers and small merchants for three cents the week. The Austrians, Papelpu declares, are much better supplied with food than are the Germans; are more human to their prisoners, and are looking for- Germany or not.

Norton Worked for Release, During all of these months that Papelpu was serving and smarting un- der the goad of his European captors, the representative in congress from his district, Patrick D. Norton, of Hettinger, spurred on by Papelpu’s bride, who, when her husband wad wrested from her side at the end, of a three days’ honeymoon, continued, alone, her’ journey to her husband’s adopted land, and here. amone aliens and without friends, fought for. her husband's liberty, was making every effort to procure Papelpu‘s release. There was much correspondence be- tween the departments of state of the two nations; much diplomatic wire- pulling, and finally, in March, 1917, Austria grafted Papelpu his release, as an American citizen, impressed against his will into the service of Russia; paid him his accumulated wages of three cents per day, and gave him safe conduct to Switzerland. From Switzerland Papelu founa bis way into France. In then meantime America had declared war on Ger- many, and when Papelpu revealed himself as an American citizen, the land of the allies opened its arm to him. Papelpu made the most of the opportunity by eating whenever he was offered a dinner, and he returns to Diciknson showing little signs of wear. Is Prosperous Farmer. Papelpu has resided 14 miles south of Dickinson since 1908. He has a fine farm home and a good quarter section of land, and is rated among Stark county's prosperous farmers. He is now making the most of a be- lated honeymoon with a bride who is rejoicing in the repossession of a hus- band whom she had given up all hopes of ever seeing again. A peculiar fea- ture of Papelpu’s three years’ experi- ence is that he had practically for- gotten all the English he had learned during his residence here. On the other hand, he has hecome an able linguist so far as German and the Austro-Hungarian, or Slovenian and Croatian tongues are concerned, and he has picked up a good smattering of French. Papelpu is age, but declares that with his bride’s permission he is ready to enlist and assist Uncle Sam in avenging the in- sults which have been heaped upon him and other American cfllzens in Kurope.

MARGUERITE CLARK Marguerite Clark, having won one of her greatest successes on the stage in an adaption of the Grimm brothers’ beloved fairy tale “Snow White,” has dusted off the darling little costumes which she wore in the play and has donned them again for the Famous iPlayers version of the story wh is the Paramount Picture at the marck theatre today. It i the motion picture goes the original story for its that the adaption is true to the Grimm conception in every detail Especial attention has been given by Director J.

C., Aug. 6.—About four out of five men are expected to claim exemption from; seélecvtive serv- ice. This announcement comes from Provost General Crowder's office. A much smaller per cent will be ex- empted. “Small towns in country regions are expected to show a larger percentage of men willing to accept service than big cities like New York,” said one of the high officials in charge of this matter. “The foreign-born population of New York is opposed to compulsory military service, many of them hav-| ing left their countries to avoid it. We are not surprised at the number of claims for exemption filed.” The question whether to exempt a physically fit man is up to each local board. The board is required to c tify the quota required from its d trict, and if the board excuses the first men who present themselves, they must refuse to excuse those who later present themselves. Somebody must serve. Work of physically and otherwise examining drafted men will probably | continue for 30 4 General Crowd- er’s oflice is hoping to have a com- plete roster of 659,000 men ready by the time the cantonments are ready. The cantonments are promised for Sept. 1; as a matter of fact, they will not be ready ‘Sept. 1.

ARE UNDER SHELTER talks hopefully and quite enthusiastic- ally as to what has been accomplished up to date, but has not promised that the soldier cities will be really ready at the end of.the next 30 days. “We have accomplished miracles,” said he, “but promising is risky. A lot depends on whether the last ship- ment of lumber, water pipe or sewer pipe comes through. Delay in some essential consignment might hold up completion of any of these projects.” ‘Probably most of the cantonments will have water systems in operation and be under roof by Sept. 15. By Oct. 1 they may bave their other fix- ings in place, including some pave- ments. It is doubtful whether the men called for selective service will be actually put in these camps before October, ‘since Secretary Baker has repeatedly announced he. would not crowd a lot-of new recruits into un- finished barracks. General Gorgas, as chief of sanitary arrangements, must pass on any army camp before it begins to-house men. If everything. is completed to make the camp sanitary, the men may as- semble even if the final trimmings are not completed. But, if necessary to wait until November, the men are to be made comfortable and kept healthy. General Crowder will probably need the six weeks for getting his men, just as much as General Littell. will need this time to build his soldier cities. Local exemption boards are working slowly. When they have fin- ished, there is still a Job to be done by the district’ exemption boards. There are 162 of the latter, one for each federal judicial district. It falls upon these boards to pass on all ques- tions, touching the exemption of men on the ground that they are needed for certain industries.
