GREATEST SHAM BATTLE

BERLIN, Sept. 14.-What is declared
by the press to have been the most i'm
posing and spectacular sham battle o:
the century took place today. as a
climax to this years maneuverS of the
German army. Il was under the per-
sonal supervision of Emperor William.
The three largest army corps of the
Empire-the Thirteenth OF Wurtem-
burg, the Fourteenth OF Baden and the
Fifteenth of Alsace-were divided into
two opposing hosts. To distinguish
the fighting armies from one another
the uniforms were respectively red and
blue. The battle was an imitation of
Napo!eon's campaign OF 1865 against
Austria in Wurtemburg and Baden.
A final and desperate attack by the
cavalry, blue army, under command
of the Kaiser himself, caused the de-
feat and rout Of the red regiments.
The end of the fight was followed by
rousing "Hochs'' for the valiant SOW
ereign.
The sham battle covered an area of
several kilometers, and to the specta-
tors it appeared like a fight to the
death, as the battlefield was strewn
with the fallen.

blank He could not remember his
name or the place of his home.
Mr. Burdette had been working a
great deal in the last few days, and
this, together with the shock he eX-
perienced in the railroad wreck at Fa-
mosa. evidently caused his collapse.
Physicians who were summoned tC
attend the gentleman seemed to regard
his case as serious. 1t was, after con-
sultation, deemed best to send him tc
