cHIvALRY STILL REMAINS.
One Indication Revealed Between Ger
man and Allies Lines.


Frankfort. March 20.--Chiyalry still
persists in modern warfare, as is proved
by the experience OF non commission
officer in a Baden regiment, who was
wounded in the recent fighting at La
Bassee between the Germans and the
British. In one of the repeated charges
by which the celebrated brickyards
changed hands so often, the non-com-
mssoned officer led his squad to with
in fifteen yards Of the British trenches,
where he fell wounded by six bullets.
His comrades, who were forced to fall
back to their own trenches fifty yards
away, tried to carry of tire body of their
supposed dead leader but were unable
TO do so owing to the heavy fire Twen'
ty-four hours later the British discovered
that the wounded officer was still alive
and called to him to come TO their
trench promising him good treatment.
He was unwilling TO do 50 and instead
raised himself on his elbow and called
to his friends:
"Come get me. ] don't want to be a
prisoner of the English"
Inc Lernans snOuteu 70 the btlt'pH
request for permission to bring in the
wounded man; the British promised not
to shoot and two German soldiers ven
tured boldly out Of their trenches, cross
ed the intervening space and carried the
wounded man back, not a shot being
fired and both British and Germans join
ing cheers. The story is printed with
approving comment in the German pa
pers.
