Wrist Watches Dangerous.
A warning la Issued in tbe Berliner
Kllnlsche Wocbenachrift against the
wearing of wrist watches by German
soldiers In tbe field. Tbe sutbor of tbe
article. Dr. Melcblor. relates that In
treating case* of wonnded soldiers he
found many who had suffered horrible
wooed* a* n result of this, their wrist
watches having been struck by bit* of
shrapnel, which thereupon caused a
great spreading of the wound and Im-
bedded parts of tbe watch in the wrist
The danger Is the greater, he adds,
because the watches are usually worn
on tbe left wrist and It la tbe left hand
and arm that as a rule, are wonnded
rather than tbe right
Prince’s Harrow Escape.
Princess Arthur of Connaught la be-
ing congratulated oh her husband's
daring escape from the Germans, whose
prisoner he was for an hour or more.
The prince and his chauffeur drove
their machine Into the German lines
In a fog. They were seized and thrown
Into a hot Here they discovered (Jor-
man uniforms and disguised '■ m-
selves., They managed to pass b, sen-
try placed to guard them and enter
their own automobile again. On near-
ing the German lines they were chal-
lenged. and to escape ran nt a speed
of ninety miles an hour. Many bul-
lets struck the flying car.
Past the German outposts they sped,
but tbe French seized them, and think-
ing them Germans, were on the potnt
of shooting them as spies, when they
were identified.
How It Feel* Under Fire.
A British officer gives the following
account of bis impressions under fire;
“There is a good deal of rot talked
of berqlsm at present If it Is all true
there are many millions of heroes in
Europe Just now. and I leave that to
you. I've found It harder to go
straight In life than go under Are. I
don't think men find It hurd to go un-
der fire. First of all. there is the mass
suggestion and the tradition of yotir
people to give you a Mas to bravery.
Then when you are in the thick of it
you forget psychology ’ after nwhile
and get Interested in the explosions.
“When thoroughly warmed np you
care nothing about your own skin—
you forget you've got a skin—bat you
are very hot about damaging tbe hides
of the ruffians who are tbe cause of
■ EKE are some of tbe latest tra-
I I. man interest stories of tbe great
1 | European struggle:
Among the many instance*
*r how the war affects a single family
I* one shown by a letter in the Figaro
of Paris in which a soldier, himself
severely wounded, writes to hi* aunt
telling her of tbe death of his brother.
He does not mourn that bis brother Is
gone, but speaks In almost envious
tones of the worthy msnner In which
be gave up hi* life. Tbe letter follows:
“My Dear Aunt—I was very gtnd to
get your letter and Will comply with
your desire to know something about
the misfortune that has come to us.
My brother Camille met bis end glo-
riously on Sept. 13, near Berry-au-BaC.
He wa* ordered by the general of tbe
brigade to which he was attached to
carry an order to the regiment. He
realized that tbe order bad to be deliv-
ered at once XVitbout making a show
of bis courage be started for tbe bead
Of tbe two regiments In qnesriOD in or-
der tbnt they might take pnrt In tbe
attack on the German position.
"XVbile he was hurrying to carry out
the order be fell, hit in the head prob-
ably by the bursting of a shell. They
carried bis body to the rear, and he Is
now In tbe little cemetery of tbe church
at Saplgnol, where we will go together
at tbe end f the war. This service
was of such value that Camille receiv-
ed long mention in the army report.
But, alas, the honors paid to him will
not pay us for our affliction.
"Mignette Is on her way to yon with
tbe two children. She has shown a
stoic courage and admirable resigna-
tion, wblcb must have been a great
comfort to our poor father. As for my-
self, I was wonnded on OcL 2 near
Lens, when our battalion had arrived
at Grand Courocne. 1 was wounded
In the left leg Just above the ankle by
the bursting of a shell and at the same
time a shower of tile* and bricks fell
upon my head. It was the last house
where 1 was stationed on observation
that was struck.
‘I was taken to Lens and then to
Bethune, where an amputation was
deemed necessary because gnngrene
had already set in. Tbe day after the
operation we had to leave suddenly in
tbe iijght, the hospital being threaten-
ed. 1 was placed in a cattle van on
tbe straw with my leg freshly cut
XVe remained a day and a night with-
out aid or light between Bethune and
Amiens, where I have been lying In a
horrible state. At Amiens I was well
treated and bad the pleasure of seeing
Henrtette arrive. This welcome sur-
prise came to me, and at the end of
two weeks my sister came to me from
Paris. 1 had then been for two days
at tbe hospital at Messimy and later
at Poitiers.
“1 was there told by ray father of
tbe great mourning wblcb bad come to
us at the death of Camille. Henrtette
had bravely spared me any news
which might binder my recovery. T'he
wound la healing beautifully, and It
will not be mfluy days before I am
able to get up. This Is my story and
also the story of our misfortune.
Fra nee’"has demanded much of us.
XYe have sacrificed everything to her,
for w« loved ber more than all. I
send my love to you and also to my
cousins."
Love Letters to the Chief.
Tbe Berlin newspapers say that
Field Marshal von Hindenburg recelv
ed several hundred love letters at
Christmas from German women and
girls.
A request has now been Issued
through official channels that all young
girls in Germany should refrain from
writing such epistles, ns the field mar-
shal has more serious matters to at-
tend to than to read such trash.
Wqraen as Fighters.
The London Daily Chronicle says:
“There appears from time to tfme la
the Russian papers the statement that
women voluutrew are fighting In the
German ranks, and now the Warsaw
correspondent of the Dyen of Petro-
grad has actually seen these amazons
"Among the wounded at present be-
ing treated at the Ouyazdoff hospital,
he says, are seven women who were
captured while fighting in Gerruau uni-
forms. They are placed together iu a
special ward. Judging by tbe nature
of their wounds, they have taken part
not only in rifle practice, but also in
bayonet attacks. One of them who
had a serious bayonet wound has die!
N “They are fine specimens of Teutonic
womanhood, and tbe Russian nurses
greatly admire their finely developed
muscles, which seem to Indicate that
they have belonged for years to Ger-
man gymnastic societies. In captivity
they behave with the same haughty
aud contemptuous indifference which jected to gunfire which never before
characterizes the Prussian officers.
One of the nursing sisters brought to
them a Russian newspaper, the Petro-
grad Florald. which Is printed Iu Ger-
man. but they Indignantly rejected her
offer and said they did not believe any-
thing which IRMTel Russian pa-
per. even when printed In German.
They refused to talk of their homes
and families; but. judgiug from tbetr
demeanor, they seem to belong to tbe
upper or upper middle class.
“The German bourgeois has always
refused to acknowledge ' woman's
claims to political suffrage on the

An how later the bombardment
started again. We *at there like para-
lyzed. On the table » cigar burned a
hole in a glove. Nobody bad aena* or
ambition enough to prevent It
“When the bombardment wa* over
everybody felt a peculiar sort ef fa-
tigue. All conversation ceased. On*
of the men left hi* *eat and wearily
threw himself upon the straw bed. Be-
fore he went to sleep he turned over

“The worst of It wna that

reasons for that Things wonl^ he!

of the he?t spirits In that esse. Bnt toj
sit there Ilk - dumb brutes and wait for
orders under aneb a fire was a bad ex-
perience.
"The day passed In this manner. The
enemy's fire ceased at 7 o’clock In tbe
evening, and after a meal of bacon,
bread and coffee made of cereals, we
felt better. A partridge pie which my
mother had sent me helped to cheer
us up
"Next morning at 5 the order. ‘Ready-
tor fire!' came by telephone. 'Man the
guns—distance 2,100 yards—shell, fire,’
ukl the Voice at the other end of the
wire. Though it was still dark, we
beard from the distance the thrashing
of Infantry fire.
"Onr shells shriek and whistle across
the plain. 'Shot well placed—battery
salvos — every ten seconds — distance
now 2.200 yards.' telephoned tbe obser-
vation officer.
’The fun commences. It 1* hard

"Bnt the enemy’s motor battery also

onr position. The second one hit* the

veritable sea of explosions surround

shrieks, smoke and powder stench gtve

crater of a volcano. XVe are covered
with mnd whtch the enemy's shells
throw up and which descends on us

■"Two, 175!' I shouted at the gunner,
bnt he dki not move,
“‘FUeherr was my next shout At
that moment the body of the gunner
