Pitcher Dick Rudolph of the Boston Braves poses with Baby Bunny at his New York home. Great fire in Chelsea, Mass., causes loss of $125,000. Firemen are covered with ice while fighting it. Red Fox James, Indian Chief, travels from Montana to Washington on horseback to urge President Wilson to set aside a national holiday. Charlestown Navy Yard is crowded with vessels waiting to go to dry dock while work on the Dixie is rushed to put that vessel in commission for a voyage in Panama waters. A.E. Wallace, a staff photographer of the Hearst-Selig News Pictorial, by special arrangement with the German Government, has been permitted to visit a number of interior cities and make photographs. The first lot of these scenes is released in this number. It shows a new phase of the European war. The new army being trained by the German military machine to fill places of men killed in the trenches. The scenes are made at Frankfurt where the quarters of the 63d Field Artillery are being used by the recruits. They show the method by which the men are trained to handle cannon, to ride their horses, to march and how their bodies are put into physical condition for the rigors of a campaign by a systematic course in setting up exercises. Wonder has been expressed as to the manner in which the German Government will replace the enormous numbers of killed and wounded in the present war. The pictures taken by Mr. Wallace at Frankfurt show that the ones being called upon to fill the depleted ranks are mostly youths just gaining manhood.
