TWO RIVER FALLS GIRLS
NOW in WAR ZONE

Misses Anna and Fannie Smith,
daughters of Mr.. and Mrs. George
Theo Smith of this city, are at
Schleswig, Germany, visiting re-
latives. The young ladies left here
directly after the close of the local
high school. in June, for a tour
of southern Europe. They had
been through Italy and Switzer-
land, with a party of tourists. The
River Falls girls left the party at
Hamburg, going from there to
their relatives at Schleswig instead
of taking the trip down the Rhine,
a trip they had taken some four
years ago. They were to join the
party at Paris for trip through
France, but the outbreak of the
war cancelled the trip. Their re-
turn trip is booked for a boat
which is scheduled to leave Liver
pool August Is, next Tuesday. A
letter was received by their par
ents telling of their arrival at the
home of their relatives in Ger
many, but no further communica-
ton has followed. Mr.. Smith has
notified the American consul at
Hamburg, giving him the girls
address and asking him to assist
them to reach a port from which
they may reach England. No al
arm is felt for their safety, but
they may be Inconvenience by an
indefinite stay in Germany. Miss
Anna is a teacher in the local
high school.

FIGHTING NOW IN
Progress AT
CHARLEROl
Continued from Page !;

"Various profitable operations by
the Germans are being considered.
General Bannal thinks they will at
tempt an overwhelming attack On
Montmedia and Nancy, that is to say,
through Longwy, close to the point
mentioned above.
"Angon lie Roman is the only place
at which they have penetrated Fernch
territory.
"Other suggestions are an attack
on Sedan, which, if successful. would
open a road via Bethal and Rheims,
and finally, permit of a great sweep
ing flank movement through Belgium
via ST. Quentin.
1.-THE general opinion is that the
last plan will be adopted. 1t will
be very daring attack, owing to the
distance to be traversed and the lone
line of communication.
"If the attack should fail, the
German forces would run very
great risk of being cut off complete
ly from their base"

FRENCH FOREIGN
Legion RECKLESS
Like Zouaves, Bedouins and
Chasseurs They are Care
less of Death
100000 FOR SERVICE
Colonies of France Can Supply Her
With Immense Army Hardened
to Worse Kind Of
Warfare.
(By La Raconteuse.)

Paris, Aug. 22.-One hundred thou
sand soldiers from French colonies
can be brought to face the Germans.
Some Of them are now on the firing
line. Tales OF deeds encourage by
the Turcos, or native Algerlans, are
already coming in. 49,,
The famous Turcos did splendid
work in 1870. They are used to con-
tinuous border fighting. Their discl-
pine is splendid aid their Spirit un-
excelled.
France has nine regiments, about
20, 900 men, of these fierce dusky
trops. They are only a part OF the
Algerian military establishment,
which includes some OF the hardest
fighters in the world-the Zouaves,
the Foreign Legion, the Chasseurs
d'Afrique and the Spahis.
These trooEs Gre not Considered
colonials Algeria comprised the
nineteenth zone in the French mobll-
ization scheme. Its soldiers make up
the Nineteentharmy corps, which IS
part of the metropolitan army"
The Foreign legion has probably
the most uniformly reckless fighters
in the world. No questions are ask
ed of the recruit. He passes the phys
ical examination and that is enough.
In the six battalions, about $500 men,
are thirty per cent of Alsatians and
twenty per cent of deserters from
The rigorous German army. They are
mounted infantry.
The rest are adventures from all
over the world, many OF them with
pasts which give them nothing TO
live for.
The Foreign legion, organized in
1851, won renown at Ab-del-kedlr,
fought for Isabella in the Carlist rev.
olution, covered itself with glory in
the Crimea, and supported the hap
less Macmillan i'm Mexico.
In the Franco-Prussian war it was
almost annihilated at the battle of
Artenay. With the Turcos it saved
de la Motterouge's army of the Loire
from destruction by covering the re
treat.
The Zouaves are foot soldiers, 49,
500 strong. The African light in
fantry has 1900 men. The Chas-
seurs d'Afrique comprise 5000 horse
men. The Spahis are Bedouia horse
and lumber $500. The above mem
ioned, $4,000 in all, are professional
fighting men, very nasty for soldiers
whose experiences are confined to
manoeuvers and garisons to go TIP
against.
Besides the Nineteenth army corps,
France has fine soldiers in the big
black Senegal tirailleurs, and the
AMMAN tirailleurs are far from con-
.emptible. Theer are 10000 native
roops in the colonional army outside
IF Algiers.

REFUSES TO CLEAR

Mazatlan Held at Frisco Because She

San Francisco, Aug. 22-After "a

What Liege will do to pay the SIM

These demands are considered here
to be the greatest calamity which the
Belgians-innocently drawn into the

Brussels is practically without a

WANTED WIDOWS
PICTURE IN TOMB
I. D. Walker, Artist, Made Pact With
Divorce, But She Now Says
"Nay."

Wilmington, Del, Aug. 22.-The
death of T. Dart Walker, known ma
tionally as an artist, has brought to
light a pact between the artist and
wealthy divorced woman of Phila
delphia and an accompanying death
bed request that is romatic in the ex-
IRENE.
knowing that each breath might be
his last, Walker told an attendant at
4 hospital the story of an unusual
agreement with Mrs. Bettina Ben
lett of No. 1918 Walnut street, Phila-
ielphia. The pact was this: If Mrs.
Bennett should die first he (Walker)
would kill himself. and if he should
lie first her portrait should be buried
n his tomb.
In faltering words he made his last
request. 1t was that of a life-sized
portrait of Mrs. Bennett, which he
'ainted recently, should be placed
within his tomb.
Mrs. Bennett declares that she will
not allow her portrait to be placed
in the tomb With the body of Walker
| She says the associations surrounding
| he painting of the portrait are toe
sacred and that every time she gazes
at the picture memories of the artist
come to her.
Walker was "A years old. He was
IN authority on the navies of the
world. His knowledge was respected
to such degree that he was selected
by former President Roosevelt to &C
company the American fleet when i
encircled the globe.
Just before he did he completed
series of pictures depicting battles o
airships and dirigibles such as ar
being fought now by the air fleets o
he European countries. His activi
ties on battlefields during the Balkan
war and Spanish-American war ulti
mately caused his death. The siren
uous campaign brought on hear
trouble.
