In July GS6D General Mcdowell had

from Washington southwark. for a
stroke at Richmond.
At Bull Run. on the 21st, he had
met the confederate forces under
Generals Beauregard and Joseph Z.
Johnston, and after a stubborn and
sanguinary battle had been thrown
back in utter rout. his regiments not

panic and confusion OF their flight
But it had been a battle and moth
ing more.
The troops on the one side as on
the other were raw volunteers; both
governments had hoped until the other
day to see the conflict ended by a
mere show of force or by some sudden
stroke, and the confederate command
ers were as little prepared to follow
up an advantage as their opponents
would have been
For moment the South thought
that this battle was all; the confeder-
ate troops themselves believed that it
was, and incontinently set out In
crowds for their homes, without leave
taken.

English towns wonder whether especially high
honors, say the Order of the Red Eagle, were
awarded to the heroic aeronauts that dropped
bombs on a girls school and street car on a
southern coast. Such exploits were, of course, of
great military importance, all these raids are
according to Berlin. Perhaps nothing has done so
much to steel British determination to continue the
war indefinitely as these wanton and cowardly
killings of women and children far removed from
the theatcr of war. Every such raid makes the
prospects Of peace more remote.-Philadelphia

In the early days of the Miss Hansen was
living in her apartment in Paris. She had been a
trained nurse and she determined to devote her
self to training others who should be needed for
service, particularly for making bandages When
virtually the whole city was in flight she deter
mined to stay. For days she experienced a strange
isolation, with nearly all her friends and her pro-
fessonal associates gone, and with the steady
tramp in her ears OF the seemingly endless process
sion through the streets.
Finally, much against her will, she per-
suaded to start the road to Bordeaux. There,
among the fugtives, she witnessed extraordinary
scenes. incidentally she became convinced that
her rightful place was Paris and she made des-
perate effort to get back After being many
times refused conveyance she succeeded in per-
rying wounded soldier to a Paris hospital to
take her in. Her many adventures in Paris includ-
cd the spectacle OF duel in the air between a
French and German birdman. How it ended
she never knew the birdmen fled off into space.

When Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney decided to
establish hospital for wounded soldiers at Juilly,
Miss Hansen pressed into the service.
Before the work could be started many diff
cultics had to be overcome. The French author-
ties a little disturbed, apparently at the in
trusion OF these Americans. Perhaps they did not
quite understand the animating motives. Perhaps,
too, they had certain pride so characteristic Of
many OF the French in taking care of their own.
Miss Hansen did not dwell on the difficulties;
but | happened to have learned from other sources
that, to overcome them, had required a great deal
OF diplomacy and tact. The work, however, cvi-
IDENTIFY justified itself
Miss Hansen did not boast of the services she
and her associates had rcndercd but it these sCrv-
ices had not been great they could not have won
recognition and approval As matter OF fact, in
the college, converted into a hospital, Mrs. Whit
ncy introduced the most scientific methods and
established every possible convenience and COM
fort.

Miss Hansen did not go into details about the
appearance OF the wounded soldiers their ar
rival; but she referred incidentally to details that
suggested a condition woful in the extreme. Some
Of tho had not changed their clothes for
months. Many were practically without shoes or
stockings. After the life in the trenches, to be
received into warm room, to be bathcd and to
be placed in comfortable beds, to be regularly fed
and dCvotedy waited must have seemed to
them like reaching heaven.
Their gratitude expressed itself in ways that
moved Miss Hansen to mirth. She confessed that
she had never been adored in her lifc. To the
poteness of those French soldiers she paid
glowing tribute She intimated that, in her opn-
ion, they had been polite enough to let the Ger
mans fire the first shots
Hospital lifc naturally aboundcd in dramatic
scenes. As the groups OF wounded entered, the
nurses, who felt little OF the cxaltation OF and

Sometimes groups of British soldiers would be
brought to the hospital. They, too, would
sionally be without shoes or stockings. And
Scotchmen were known to in minus their
kits. Though there was great cxutation among
all the soldiers now and then a doubt would be
expressed as to the OF all this anguish.
One Frenchman, wounded at Sossons as he
lay dying, asked to be shown photograph OF his
wife and two children. While he was looking at it
he said: 81 giving my life for the sake OF

while" When the French mother OF two sons,
after losing son, came to the hospital and
told that her second son had just had arm
amputated, she said: THANK God!' She knew
that now she should not have to give him back to
the war.
Miss Hansen speaks OF the soldiers as the
boys" In the hospital they evidently become chill
dren again. What they to prize most in the
way of luxury is tobacco. They get so little that
sometimes when one has cigarette he passes it
around to others, so that each may have a puff.
