We're driven back by the unfiinching
Prussians. Again the cuirassiers
charged, and again they were driven
back by the whitening fire.
For a third time they came down
again, and as the enemy waited for
them to draw nearer a horrible, blood
freezing terror seized the Prussians,
and for the moment it looked as If
they would turn and fly or be cut
down without defending themselves.
But in a moment they had pulled
themselves together and beaten back
for the third and last time the gallant
cuirassiers.
The sight that terrified the Prussians
appears nothing very much in black
and white. 1t was a regiment of cui-
rassiers led at a dashing rate toward
them by a headless officer sitting up
right in his saddle and apparently en-
couraging his men. 1t was no less

whose head had been carried COM
pletely off his shoulders as the troop
broke into the third desperate charge
by cannon ball, which also took off
another officers hand and cut the
bugler in two.
1t is remarkable and singular that at
the battle of Forbach, which took
place the same day as Worth, very
similar incident occurred and did more
to shake the nerves Of the Germans
than hours of roaring cannon and
fighting had done.
While q regiment of Prussian infan-
try were standing In reserve watching
the fight as well as they could from
their position of shelter a charger be-
longing to French dragon regiment.

the battle. galloped right into the midst
of the men, who rushed to arrest it
and Immediately fell back in alarm,
for swinging to the bride was the
whole left arm of the chargers rider,
the fingers of the hand firmly grasping
the reins. The arm appeared to have
been severed few inches below the
| shoulder and was certainly that of an
| officer, but who the officer was has
never been satisfactorily established.
So moved We're the hardened men of
| battle at the horrible sight that no one
| would touch the horse, and the animal
was allowed 70 gallop off to be killed q
few minutes later in crossing before
some Prussian guns. Thrilling as the
| Incident was, many of the brave fell

I their first, almost irresistible, impulse
was to throw down their arms and
bolt. Yet it was with the help of just
such men that General Won Cohen
routed the French that memorable day
in August. 1870.
1t is well known fact that the
| finest and bravest troops the world can
| produce have no immunity from that
strange and mysterious madness known
to military history as "war panic" A
heavy war, frequent sanguinary en-
gagements, night marches and sur.
prises sometimes play havoc with sol
diers' nervous systems and render
them more like high spirited colts than
men who have taken the field prepared
to suffer Unreasonable horrors and
take death cheerfully.
During the peninsular war two Brit
ish regiments, the very pick Of the
army and seasoned veterans. were
marching along in good order when 9

direction. blind terror in their hearts.
their faces blanched and their ears
deaf to the Numbered commands of
their officers.
For the moment they knew but one
sentiment, one emotion, a sudden, pas
sionate. blind terror, and they fed
without thinking whether they were
running into the arms of the thing
they dreaded or not. 1t was a terror
that was madness, and only its mad
ness redeems it from dishonor. If
anything were necessary to demon
strate the unnaturalness of the panic
it would be done by the grand fact that
the moment it became known that the
enemy was really at hand the men In
stantly fell in and showed the utmost
eagerness to attack.
Such war panics are mysteries.
Even the most experienced military Of
ficer cannot satisfactorily explain them.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1908-07-17

1t is a peculiar circumstance that
hardened and trained troops will go
through a long fight surrounded by
all the horrors that are insepsrable
from war without finching and with
the utmost apparent callousness and
the same men will be struck terrified
by a single trfling incident.
Every war of any Importance, par
ticularly wars between civilized ma
tons, is prolific in incidents of trivial
character in themselves, but SO I'M
usual and unnatural that they appeal
to the natural instructive horror of
men more suddenly and intensely than
perhaps the main terrors of days of
carnage. Such an incident is the one,
for example, which occurred at the
battle of Worth, in the early idays of
the Franco Prussian war.
