ALLIES and TEuT0NS
Give NIGHT CONCERTS
ON FLANDERS FRONT

BERLIN, August 6.-The bloody
trench-war on the western front is
not without humorous incidents. This
is shown by a letter of Lieutenant
Erich Holz, a former German law-stu-
dent. The young officer writes to the
Observation-Disclosures Blaetter," a per-
iodical devoted to the interest of the
Observation-Disclosures:
"Our opponents on the British line
near Ypres resemble the "Anthropo-
logical Congress" of Hagenbeck.
Ghurkas, negroes from Africa and 9TH
er exotical savages are huddled to-
gether in the trenches with Irishmen,
Scotchmen and Canadians. Real Eng
lishmen we seldom see, because the
genuine Britisher stays at home and
lets others fight for him.
ITO express our contempt for the
hordes from Asia and Africa we ar
range a unique concert every evening.
The feature of these concerts is al
ways the "Umba-Song," compost
tion of my own. Initiating negro
drums the chorus sings in a fnonoto-
nous rhythm: "Umba, umba, umba, ~
while the leader in a shrill tenor, &C.
companied by clapping of hands,
shouts a long string of silly words,
like "Oh belladonna, watchgangalli-
GALL, gingangu, gingangum."
These concerts never fail to make
our opponents, whose nearest trench
is only about fifteen yards from ours,
real mad. They also begin to sing
and shout and we have Homeric
scolding-duels. "You Dutchmen are all
crazy! Come over and let us lick
you!"

Under the fee, as he had known,
was note. He took the note surrepti-
tiously. turned and presented the ice
to Ancient Anna with a bow.
THANK you, kind sir" she curtsied,
taking it.
Del Mar stepped aside and glanced
at the little slip of paper. Then he
crumpled it up and threw it aside,
walking away.
No sooner had he gone than Aunt
Josephine reached out and picked up
the paper. She Strengthened it and
looked at it. There was nothing on
the paper but "a crude drawing of a
sunrise on the ocean.
Whats that?" asked Aunt Jo-
sephine, in surprise.
Just then Elaine and Lieutenant
Woodward came in and stopped be-
fore the tent. Aunt Josephine mo-
toned to Elaine to come in and Elaine
followed. Lieutenant Woodward start
ed after her.

cient Anna, shaking her forefinger at
him. Il don't want you. It's the

Woodward stood outside, though he
did not know quite what it was all
about. While he was standing there,
Professor Arnold came up. He had
not exactly made hit with the guests.
At least, he seemed to make little ef-
fort to do so. He and Woodward
walked away, talking earnestly
In the tent Aunt Josephine handed
Elaine the piece of paper she had
picked up.
What does it mean?" asked Elaine,
studying the curious drawing in sur
prise.
"Tm sure I don't know" confessed
Aunt Josephine.
Nor l."
Meanwhile Lieutenant Woodward
and his friend had moved to a corner
of the veranda and stood looking in
tently into the moonlight. There was
Del Mar deep in conversation with
man who had slipped out, at a quiet
signal, from his hiding place in the
shrubbery.
THAT fellow is up to something,
mark my words" muttered Arnold un-
der his breath.
They continued watching Del Mar,
but, so far at least, he did nothing
that would have furnished them any
evidence of anything.
So the party went on most merrily

Elaine sat in her dressing gown up
in her room. about to retire.
Her maid had left her, and she
picked up the slip of paper from her
dresser, looking at it thoughtfully.
What can a crude drawing of

herself
For long time she studied the pa
per, thinking it over. At last an idea
came to her.

herself. Something is going to hap

At the first break of dawn the little
alarm clock awakened Elaine. She
started up and rubbed her eyes at the
suddenness of the awakening, then
quickly reached out and stopped the
bell so that it would not disturb 9th
ers in the house. She jumped out of
bed hurriedly and dressed.
Armed with spy glass, Elaine let
herself out of the house quietly. Di

along the beach. Suddenly she paused.

"Confound it! l should have fired at

The room was so dark now that ii
was impossible to see Arnold. Del
Mar gazed intently. Suddenly Ar
nold's electric torch glowed forth in
a spot across the room.
Del Mar blazed at it, firing every
chamber of his revolver, then switched
on the lights.
No one was in the room. But the
door was open. Del Mar gazed about,
veXed, then ran to the open door.
For a second or two he peered out
in rage, finally turning back into the
empty room. On the mantlepiece lay
the torch Of the intruder. It was one
in which the connection Is made by a
ring falling on a piece of metal. The
ring had been left up by Arnold. Con-
nection had been made as he was
leaving the room by pulling the thread
which he had fastened to the ring. Del
Mar followed the thread as it led
around the room to the doorway.
"Curse him!" swore Del Mar, smash
ing down the innocent torch on the
floor in fury, as he rushed to the desk
and saw his papers all disturbed.
Outside, Arnold had made good his
escape. He paused in the moonlight
and listened. No one was pursuing. He
drew out two or three of the letters
