ling recently in Germany and Austria
on behalf of a London company of
whom he is now manager, was several
times arrested as an English spy Once
in Austria when waiting on a railway
platform, the officials were quite sure
Mr.. Hellstrom was a spy and the crowd
had already started aggressive behav-
ior toward the Swede when he dug out
of his luggage a certificate of the Order
of the Red Eagle, which was conferred
upon him after the Games. This GER
tificate also on later occasions proved
still more useful and efficient than did

CAMBRIDGE STUDENTS TO
AID BELGIAN FELLOWS
(By Associated Press.)

CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 3.-Cardinal
MERCER has appointed professors from
the University of Louvaine 10 arrange
for four courses of the faculties of
theology, law, science and philosophy
at Cambridge and the proposal that the
destroyed university shall transfer it's
work here for the time being is taking
practical shape.
Students at Cambridge have started
a shilling fund for the assistance of
Belgian students and weekly contribu-
tons will be made on behalf of the
Louvain students, several hundred of
whom will doubtless begin their work
at Cambridge in short time.
Cambridge has much more the APP
pearance of a garrison town than an
educational center. Students have
military drill instead of games for rec
reation Instead of roking and foot
ball, drill-masters of the officers train
ing corps put the students through
three hours of rigorous military train
ing every day and military lectures are
held at night.
At the military hospital medical pro-
fessors and demonstrators care for
hundreds of wounded soldiers quarter
ed here. Both Belgians and British
wounded are sent to Cambridge. Other
Cambridge men are running hospital
ship at sea and two thousand COM
missions in all have been granted to
Cambridge graduates and ex-stndents
who are now at the front.

cartridges. Even then the charge did
Rot go off and the men had to flee,
leaving the bridge intact. If the charge
had gone off the young lieutenant
would have disappeared completely,
but the approaching Germans would
have been robbed of an easy entry in
to the Allies territory.
One of the officers of the ill-fated
Cressy which was sunk by the German
submarines, was severely injured on
the head, had both his legs broken and
his feet crushed as he was thrown in
to the air by the explosion. His body
was sucked under the water by the
sinking cruiser, but was picked up by
one of the rescue ships.
Twenty-four hours afterwards the
injured officer regained consciousness
and his first words were: Are we
down-hearted? MOI"
A sergeant of the line was made adj
jutant for his GOODNESS and bravery in
one of the engagements in Lorraine.
With three men the sergeant was sent
across an open field to attract the fire
of the Germans so the colonel could
tell where the enemys trenches were
and what their probable strength was.
A hail of bullets was directed at the
four men. They made their way to
small farmhouse, where they climbed
up on tile roof and from the shelter
of chimney began firing at the Ger
mans. Angered by the imprudence of
the four soldiers, the Germans direct
ed one of their batteries on the house
and RACED it.
my smartest patrol leader is gone!"
the colonel remarked, as he saw the
building crumble The three privates
were no more, but the little sergeant
was soon seen running across the field

| geant arrived GREATNESS at beadquar-
tiers, the colonel asked with mock Sc
verify why he did not stay to continue
the fire.
Sorry sir, but the pigs knocked my
house down." was the reply.

| LONDON, Nov. 3.-Many narrow es-
capes and deeds of wonderful bravery
have been made by the injured British
and Belgian soldiers now recovering in
English hospitals. A young lance COR
poral of the Kings Royal Rifles, who
is recovering from a bullet wound in
his knee owes his life to a crucifix
which he picked up in an empty house
where he was billeted. A strange i'm
pulse compelled him to pick up the
crucifix and put it in his haversack.
During an engagement few days
later many of the corporal's comrades
were killed by bullets which were al
most spent. The young corporal was
hit in the knee and later found when
taken to a hospital that one of the
spent bullets had also passed complete
ly through his knapsack, but had been
DETECTED from his body by the cruci-
fix, one of the arms of which had been
broken off by the bullet.
Private W. Hinton of the First East
Lancers, poses as the luckiest man in
the army. He was hit by three bullets
within a minute, without serious inju-
| ly. One bullet fiattened five rounds Of
ammunition in his belt. Another
smashed the magazine of his rife and
a third passed through his cap.
A letter from one of the Royal Engi-
neers describes the remarkable pluck
of Lieutenant R. Pottinger, of Ted
mouth. Pottinger and his section at
tempted to blow up bridge under fire.
They laid the charge and the section
retired. Lieutenant Pottinger and a
sapper remained behind to light the
fuse. The charge did not explode. The
sapper then fired ten rounds of ammu-
milton at the charge without success.
Pottinger than said: "I'll make the
thing go off," He shook hands with
the sapper and walked to the bridge
There he put the muzzle of his recol-

Most of these are freeholders or small

KAISER Big owner
OF KRUPP WORKS
SECRETS KNOWN TO ONLY MEN OF
UTMOST LOYALTY AND TRUST
WORTHINESS
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

Especial to Times-Recorder
LONDON, Nov. 3.-Many particulars
about Krupp's-Germany's great war
factory at Essen-are given in an arti-
Gle in the Worlds Work. The works
dominate the whole of Essen, a town
of about 100000 inhabitants, and, to-
gether with attendant institutions,
cover an area of 500 acres. All the
threads of the works are held together
in the hands of one or two trustworthy
men, unimpeachable and loyal and of
the RICHEST standing. The secrets of
the Krupp Works lie concealed in its
bosom. 1t is a semi-government insti-
tuition, the Emperor being the largest
shareholder outside the Krupp family.
But the operations of the great firm
are by no means confined to the vast
gun and armor-plate factory at Essen.
They own besides huge ship building
yard-the Gemania-at Kiel; three
coal mines, employing 10000 men, iron
ore mines in Germany and Spain;
three huge smelling works, the Gruson
armor-plate works at Magedeburg, the
Amen steel works at Amen, the
Friedrich Alfred smelling works at
Rheinhausen-Frieme and ship
ping wharf with ocean-going steam
ships at Rotterdam. At the outbreak of
the war the firm was providing en-
ployment for $4,000 men.
Started as Small
Foundry in 1910.
Starting in 1910 in a small cottage
factory with six workmen, Friedrich
Krupp bequeathed at his death, in 1926,
nothing but small forge and his
secret of making crucible steel to his
son Alfred, then IA years of age. How
this lad converted the little forge into
the huge works of the present day,
works that have made his name re-
nowned in every quarter of the globe,
is a matter of common knowledge. AL
fred Krupp died, and his son, Friedrich
Alfred Krupp, the friend of the Kaiser,
reigned in his stead, continuing the
same victorious path until Nov. %,
1902, when he followed his fathers.
After his death the works passed into
the hands of the eldest daughter Frau
lein Bertha Krupp, the richest woman
in Europe, and was converted into a
company with a capital of $4,000, 900
in 1903.
The company is managed by a direc-
torate of ten members, who, in their
turn, are answerable to a board of five
members, including Herr Krupp Won
Bohlen and Halbach, the husband of
Fraulein Krupp. 1t was the secret of
crucible steel, bequeathed by Friedrich
Krupp to his son, that made the Krupp
Works. Its Incompatible qualities and
purity have enabled perfectly homo
generous, uniform and dense blocks to
be cast. These characteristics caused
the Prussian Government to give the
works their first order for 300 cannon,
and from that day the connection be-
tween the government and the works
has never been severed. Huntsman, of
Sheffield, has also discovered the sec
ret of making crucible steel some hun
dred years before Krupp, and he manu-
featured it for some time there. Unfor-
tunately the secret was buried with
him, and lay dormant until revived by
Krupp.
