OCEAN MINES DEADLY WORK

London. June 22.-Details of the
incidents on board the British cruis-
er Hampshire just before she sank
off the Orkneys last week causing
the death of Field Marshal Earl
Kitchener, among many others, are
given in an official statement issued
here based on statements by the doz-
en- survivors of the cruiser who were
washed ashore on raft.
Between 1880 and 7:45 p. M,
the vessel struck mine and began
at once to settle by the bows, heel
ing over to starboard, before she n
nally went down about fifteen min
utes after" says the report.
Efforts We're made without sue
cess to lower some of the boats. One
of them was broken in half and its
occupants We're thrown into the wa
ter.
Large numbers of the crew used
life-saving belts and waist coats,
which proved effective in keeping
them afloat. Three RATS were safe
ly launched, and with about fifty to
seventy men on each, got clear. 1t
was daylight up to about II. Though
RATS with these large numbers of
men got away, in one case, out of
over seventy men aboard, only six
survived. The survivors all report
that the men gradually dropped off,
even died aboard the RATS from eX-
haustion and exposure to cold. Some
of the crew must have persisted in
trying to land on the rocky coast af-
ter such a long exposure. Some died
after landing
The last man who saw Earl Kitch-
ener alive was Seaman Rogerson,
survivor of the Hampshire, who has
arrived at his home near London.
"Of those who left the ship and
have survived" said Rogerson, Il
was the one who saw Kitchener last.
He went down with the ship. He
did not leave her. | saw Capt. Sa-
will help his boat crew to clear away
his galley. At the same time the
Captain was calling to Kitchener to
come to his boat. Owing to the
noise made by the wind and sea,
Earl Kitchener could not hear him.
ssNNhnn 40 aNn1nGinn nnarrr,1
Earl Kitchener walked calmly from
the captains cabin and went up
ladder on the quarter deck. There !
saw him walking about quite collect
ed and talking to two officers. Earl
Kitchener was calmly watching the
preparations for abandoning the
ship, which were going on in a stea-
dy and orderly way.
The crew just went to their sta
tions, obeyed orders and did their
best to get out the boats, but that
was impossible. Owing to the rough
weather, no boats could be lowered.
What the people on shore thought to
be boats leaving We're RATS. The
men did get into the boats as they
lay in their cradles, thinking as the
ship went under them the boats
would float. But the ship sank by
the head, and when she went under
she turned a somersault forward,
carrying down with her all the boats
and those in them"

She thanks him very kindly after
their walk to her home and assures
him that she has enjoyed his COM

AS she leaves her after a sweet
goodnight she watches him admir-
ingly, for he is such a gentleman and
he is indeed lucky, for his girl is such
a little lady. These are the counting
days. He tries in every way imagin-
able to please her, for, she is his little
girl and he hopes some day to make
her his wife.
She thinks of him who apparently
takes such an interest in her welfare
and can think of no other word for

her to become his wife, for she is sure
he can make her happy.

Duty in Battle.

PARIS, May 27.-A campaign by
the extreme anti-clerical elements of
the Radical and Socialist parties
against the presence Of priests at the
battle fronts in daily contrast with
soldiers has brought sharply into pub
lie notice work which these priests
have done and are doing at the front.
1t required special Intervention
to produce for priests even the priv.
ilege" OF going to the front. Prior
to May. 1913. no chapiains were p-o-
vided for the army. The minister of
war at that time provided in a de-
gree that In case of war two Catholic
priests, Protestant pastor and a
Rabbi should be attached to earh
group Of stretcher- bearers Of an army
corps. and two Catholic chaplains to
each division which had no strctchcr.
bearers.
Many Accompany Army.
Thus about 100 priests and half as
many Protestants and Israelite5 wore
authorized to accompany TIE army.
When war began, Count Albert .
Nun, since deceased. obtained from
the minister of war authorization for
priests TO enlist as chaplains with the
approval OF their bishops up to the
number of $50 In addition. Count
Paul Pourtles obtained the san,e fav-

while sixteen additional Rabtis we-,

The number OF priests VINO have
