Medical Officers Say

Before Wounds Heal
BY dssoeidted PyH.,

Rotterdam. via London, Sept. II.
Ais a. m.-The eight French medical
on1cers who were captured by the
Germans in Namur, but who later.
were released and are here on their
way back to France my way of Eng
land, gave some interesting sidelights
on the situation in the field from
their standpoint as surgeons. I'VE
were obliged to work with the Ger
mans" one of them said. Most Of
the wounded were anxious to return
TO the night as soon as possible. We
saw no evidence of men wounded bv
dunn dunn bullets on either side. We
found the medical services of both the
Germans and the allies excellent, but
we regret that the German wounded
were often discharged from the hos
pitals too early. In some cases their
wounds had not sufficiently healed
and after their discharge the wounds
were open again and complications
set in.
Many of the wounded on both
sides were obliged to be in the field
for days after they were injured be-
cause 1t was difficult to find them ow-
ing to the bushes, trees and other
obstacles"

Want a Cannon? Take a
Trip to Virginia, and
You Can Get Buried One

Somewhere in a milrace that flows
by Cedar Creek. a town in Virginia,
fs cannon. This valuable relic of
the War of the Rebellion has been
imbedded in the mud in the bottom of
the stream for half century. No
one knew 1t was there until last week
when the water was run off and the
cannon was discovered. The water
was run in again and the cannon is
still there awaiting a claimant.
F. T. Reid, of Cedar Creek. who
was in Harrisburg on Wednesday, says
he will let anyone get to the cannon,
for the folks in his town do not seem
to care to dig the valuable relic out of
the mud and water. Mr.. Reid came
to Harrisburg to meet some friends
from the West. During his stay in
Harrisburg, Mr.. Reid went to the
Capitol and saw the cannon on exhibit
ton there. He thought perhaps the
relic in Cedar Creek would be a good
thing TO have around the Capitol of
Pennsylvania.

Germans We're Sleeping

Paris, Sept. IL, $50 a. m.-During
the third days fighting in the battle on
the Marine a detachment of the
French, which had chased the enemy
out of village, was hailed by an old
woman, who led them to a barn
where there was still thirty Germans,
telling them to make no noise, as they
were asleep. A man crept noiselessly
into the barn and found the Germans
sleeping so soundly that 1t took half
an hour and tremendous shaking to
wake them. One explained that he
had not slept for three days They
had been harassed by the French and
English and the eve before they had
entered the barn, where they all fell
asleep from sheer exhaustion.

Paris Well Satisfied
With Success of Allies
By Assoeiated Pre,,

Paris, Sept. II, GAS a. m.-The tone
of comment in the morning papers on
the result of the four days fight in the
great battle of Champagne, is one of
lively satisfaction. The successes, II Is
admitted, do not mean that the battle
has been won, but. the gain of forty
miles on the German left increases the
jeopardy on their line of communica-
ton and must cause, 1t is considered.
a Generalization of the enemy's tired
forces.
AS yet there is no indication that
the German army on the Lorraine
frontier will be able to get through to
help the main force. as last accounts
reported that Maubeuge was still
holding out, though several forts had
been placed ''hors du combat" The
fall of this place might have a great
bearing on the result of the battle in
opening ready means of commune
cation.
