Count HAESElER
IS BULLET PROOF
Reckless Daring Of German Gen
eral Gives Rise to This Su-
n

Berlin, Dec. 2S.-Old Count Haese.
Ter, the retired field marshal, is play.
ing a unique role in this Some
20 years ago military men, both Ger
mar and foreign, were accustomed to
look to him as leader of Germany's
armies in the event or a war, as he
had acquired a great reputation as
a strategist. But the war did not
come in time to give him his great
opportunity. He had fought through
three wars-against Denmark in 1864,
against Austria in 1856 and against
France in 1870, but he was then too
young to attain high rank, and when
the present war broke out he was too
old to command an army. Though he
was approaching his 10Th year, he
went to the Kaiser, it is said, and
begged permission to accompany the
troops into France, pleading humor>
ously, that he had lost a rib there in
1870, which he wanted to find.
iHaeseler got the kaiser's consent,
and for weeks he was following the
German armies, astonishing the sol
diers with his utter contempt of dan
ger. His former orderly, Arnold
tRechberg, tells in a German monthly
some interesting stories about his
daily life with the old field marshal.
1t has repeatedly occurred. says Rech-
berg, that the Count has ridden in the
firing line of the infantry while max
ing an attack. The men were adva1c-
ing only by rushes and leaning low.

at times he was even fired, upon by
machine guns and cannon without be-
ing hit. In this way a superstitious
tradition has found foothold among
the soldiers as to the old marshal be
ing supernaturally ,bullet-proof.
AN incident illustrating his cool
daring, occurred in. a certain battle,
when he was approaching a village in
which the natives were firing upon
the Germans from their barred hOus'
es. To the left and the right the
German lines were advancing. Some
body warned him not to ride through
the village, owing to the SHIPPING 60.

without getting a scratch. Arrived at
the farther side he met a patrol under
a lieutenant coming back from a res,
OnnOisance, and remarked to him:
"Comrade, l advise you not to ride
through this village; the citizens are
firing from their windows, and you
would be in danger" ,
On another occasion the old gener-

from a village which was strongly oc.
cupied. After a time firing from the
village ceased, but it was still uncer-
tain whether the French had with

ward a patrol. When the patrol rode
into the village the first man it met
was Count Haeseler, accompanied by
his orderly and a French prisoner.
He had anticipated the patrol on the
guess that the French had left. Both
he and the orderly were unarmed, but

Whereupon the Frenchman threw
down his rifle, made a military sa-
lutte, and replied: Eyes, my General"
In another battle he sat under a
walnut tree at the edge of a village
and watched the fighting with a group
of officers around him. Suddenly a
French shell dropped about 200 yards
ahead of them. and a few minutes lat

Indian Who Assaulted Woman

MES Accusation.

Mandan, Dec. 2S.-After a 4S-hour
chase, Indian police who were brought
into the work by Deputy Sheriff Os-
car Olson, late last night captured
George Red FOX and another Indian
near the Porcupine agency and the
two are now being held at the gov
eminent Jail at Fort Yates for the
brutal assault on Mrs. M. C. Burdick
at Thinner last Thursday.
The second Indian is said to have
been in Thinner with Red Fox and to
have been with him at the Burdick
home. He asserts, however, that he
had nothing to do with the assaults
made by Red Fox. He will be held
as an eye witness and one Of the main
witnesses in the prosecution.
Deputy Sheriff Olson returned late
last night from Thinner but left his
morning on business connected with
the case.
The two Indians were taken to Fort
Yates by the Indian police who matcn-
ed Indian cunning with Indian trick
cry and following tracks in The 10
on the prairie, located the two neal
Porcupine. They will be held at the
agency for a few days pending an in
vestigaticn of another criminal charge
against them, and will perhaps be
brought to the Jail at Mandan some
time within the coming week.
Mrs. Burdick is still seriously i'll
as the result of the attacks made up
on her by the Indian.
She is being cared for at Thinner.
