HOW RED CROSS NURSE
SAVED TOWN OF MAUBEUGE

Correspondence of Associated Press)
BOULOGNE. France. via London.
e l5.-Because a young French Red
cross nurse took a particular interest
in an s1S-year-old German lieutenant
who was brought unconscious into the
hospital at Maubeuge and died three
days later. the little manufacturing
city of Maubeuge has been highly IA
vored by its German conquerors and
Is enjoying a greater degree Of free
dom h any OF the other French bor-
der towns in German territory.
The wounded German proved to be
the Prince OF SaXeMeiningen. nephew
of the Emperor. He had suffered a
fractured skull in an encounter with
a French chasseur. and died without
regaining consciousness.
AT the suggestion of the little nurse,
the local authorities rendered the
prince the funeral honors due his rank.
photographed the body and coffin and
sent the photographs. together with
the personal belongings of the Prince
n n detailed account OF his illness
to his family at M%einingen. This oc-
CURED while the town was still under
French control.
The young mans father. the Duke OF
Sexe-Meiningen. acknowledged the
~courtesies In a letter expressing deep
est appreciation and later-when the
Germans entered Maubeuge he proved
his gratitude by directing the troops
occupying the fortress-town TO treat
the inhabitants with the utmost con-
sideration. The nurse was given a
safe conduct through the German lines
and has just arrived at Boulogne.
