Many Mutilated Men.

Lately we saw some wounded arriv-
ing from Switzerland. They were rath-
er young, too, but bent double as you
would close pocketknife; one had his
skull fractured; another had lost an
eye, was paralyzed on one side; another
one had only one arm and leg-a man
of thirty-eight with two children. OF
course, they will get a pension.
The farmer I mentioned before gets
700 or 900 francs a year. He will not
lose much: his wife is clever and his
business will go on all the same. The
other exchanged German prisoner that
| mentioned gets 500 francs year. He
was miner in a coal mine. His foot
will prevent him taking up that work
again. His wife injured her knee be-
fore the war and did not have proper
care; now she goes on crutches. She
is only twenty four years old and has
one child.

destruction; sadness and destruction
wherever you look. 1t is only in our
children that we have pleasure and
hope for the future"

who came back in exchange. One of
them was taken prisoner in August,
the other in September One is a
farmer from near Tours. He did not
go light headed into the war. His
company was surrounded in Belgium
by German cavalry. He was stabbed in
on the battlefield for twenty-four
hours, fully conscious. When he was
found he believed his legs were broken.
They found that only his coat was cut
by the stroke and his spinal column
compressed so that some drops Of blood
entered it. This took all power from
the mans legs and his body below the
chest. He was taken to a hospital in
Lille. The next day the Germans came
and asked the governor to surrender

the hospital, but this man and three
others remained, because it was too
were taken to the cellar. The doctor
remained with them. He did not dare
to go home because of the lombard
ment. Then the fire broke out and the
Germans took possession. The doctor
went home and returned. weeping be-
cause he had found his home in ruins.
The German doctor came to see the
three Frenchmen. He was kind, and
told the sick men, DO not cry. You are
prisoners, but you will not have to suf-
fer. Your capture is wars fate. Today
you; tomorrow, perhaps. it will be our
turn He had no reason to complain of
their conduct. They were all kind to
him until the end. He could get no cleo
trical treatment, however, as they told
him, We need the electricity for our
soldiers first, for by this time the hos
pital was filled with wounded Germans.
He specially liked the light touch of the
hands of the German physicians, as

Washington Woman Receives
Graphic Description of Con-
ditions From Friend.
SOLDIERS FROM FRONT
MERELY HUMAN WRECKS
Hardships Imposed by Advance in
Price of Observation-Disclosures
Given of Heroism.

Graphic description of the hardships
and misery and manned manhood that
are resulting from the European war is
given in a letter received by a Wash
ington woman from friend in France,
as follows:
"Of course, you want some news about
the war. First, my own opinion is tina t
it will last two years more if the allies
really want to make peace as they say;
that is, to reduce Germany's territory
of Alsace Lorraine. Polognia and the
Holstein. Just now it does not look
very bright on the Russian side. The
French keep well-soldiers in the front
better than the people at home. For in
stance, in A., where my mother
lives, people are very much depressed
1t seems that Gen. Joffre will be forced
to give up the position his troops are
now occupying, for we have lost one
kilometer of trenches. I have a
nephew on the front and he writes that
with what engines they have on either
,, side not one man will be left whole or
living when the war is over.
"One woman from Nancy says it is n
pity that the Germans could not have
gone right into Paris, because all
would have been finished by now. Ny
opinion is that it is all the same to be
French or German.
Soldiers Optimistic.
ut is remarkable that the soldiers
coming from the front are in good
humor and optimistic. Many of them
travelled with US from Paris to Lyon
They had four days holiday to visit
their families from July II, the ma
tional festival. They did not complain
They are we'll treated, well nourished
and they have full confidence in their
chiefs.

ton. and especially in the little SUBJ
They are for the most part railway Off
Gals who know their income for years
and years and at what time they will
have their pension, and how much
money they will have earned then. Now
war comes and their little calculations
are all upset. Some have lost husbands
and sons, but those who complain the
most are those who have nobody at
the front, nobody to care for They
only see that butter costs more and
meat has gone from twenty to fifty CEN
times per pound. Sugar, coffee. Goa
and eggs have reached prohibitive
prices. Everything has gone up, and
they rear that their money will soon be

them.

who are walking with crutches. IT is
