ANOTHER PICTURE OF THE
SCENES OF THE ANGLO

Tribune and Wheeling Intelligencer

GERMAN HEADQUARTERS IN
FRANCE, Nov. 6-During the davs
Of the great Septernber-Oetober An
gio-frenoh oitensive-which turned
out To be not so great as to results
despite the vast scale on which il was
proJected-all train schedules went 10
smash soon after the passenger left
the French frontier town of Audun-
le-doman.
Whether YOU were travelling via
Longuyon or Via Longwy IL was the
same. From Audun To LonCuvon is
only fifteen miles but our train was
hall day making the distance. Every
hour was critical hour and the rule
was ammunition FIRST" That rule
was absolute When the ammunition
trains had rumbled by our train
would manage 10 steal ahead a Jew
kilometers pending the coming OF
more ammunition trains. which had
the right OF way. There was a rush
OF troops to the front, too. but even
they did not have the right OF Nyav
over ammunition.
Cheers from the Wounded.
The traffic we passed that was
EomeWard bouud-that is, bound TO
Germany was mostly trainloads OF
lightly wounded men standing close
packed IN freight cars They looked
tired and grimy. but they had a good
round cheer left in them for every
trainload OF fresh troops going for
ward
The hospital trains carrying the
heavy wounded were far less fre-
quent. II was the old story OF shrap-
mel again. the story oi wounds which.
though they put a man ont OF COM

Some black-robed nuns had ioined

that they were going to The front t6

they were to take mp their duties in
the hospitals for soldiers stricken
with typhoid. They stood a long
time on the station platform in the
misty rain. Finally some soldier,
came and led them aWav into the
night-the silent black-robed women
who had asked no questions and ut
tered no word OF complaint at the de-

A Picture Of Aequieseence
They made strange impression on
the beholder. for they seemed so aIoof
