CURED ON Wednesday preceding the

woman, the latter carrying white
Gag Following these were hun
drcl children carrying little white
hags. Behind them moved q strong
body Of French troops, pressing
them forward. These people were
expelled because there was no food.
Tho Prnssians opened fire, the peo-
pie still advancing. When they
came within range, the man and
woman still leading, and moving
more rapidly, the man fell, struck
by & bullet. The womau,' waving
her white flag, continued to advance
tho child screaming. The Prus-

citizens. A terrible fusilade followed.
The road was strewn with bodies

threw shot and shell upon the Prus-
slams until the fugitivcs disappeared,
when the French troops fell back.
4 The fugitives lay around the walls,
and escaped in the night.
