charge Of insulting a. soldier The al
legged utterance is said to have been

Fleck claims Hesch said that he would
like "to cut out Fleck's heart.'
Fleck says he was standing nearby and
overheard the remarks.

utterance and he claims that his ar
rest is due to personal grudge that
Fleck holds against him. Fleck holds
that he has never had any trouble with
Hesch.

WRITES ABOUT WASHINGTON
EVENTS --..r....--

Miss Jessie Burial, who is with the
National Geographic Magazine at
Washington, D. c., has occasion to see
and near many interesting things in
that great city and she constantly
keeps her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. J. II.
Burial of this city, informed a. to
what is going on. In recent letter
she tells about having heard Captain
John Hay Beth, an English staff Of
ficer, talk on the war. He contrasted
the grim, scientific war spirit Of the
Germans, who sing because their Of
ficers have trained them to sing, to the
heartfree kiddishness of the British
regiments, also the Scotch regiments.
The Cockneys, a platoon from London,
had odd ways Of making charges. One
time a football was brought to the front
lines, and at one charge the men used
football yells and seemed to be more
earnest in kicking the football across
the field than in making the charge,
but the football finally landed with
the men in the opposite trench.
Miss Burial mentions having seen
the dedication ceremonies for the new
Red Cross building at Washington, also
the arrival Of the Italian commission,
ETC.. She says that ones interest is no
longer centered on the smart costumes
parading the streets of that city but
on the army officers and their smart
khaki uniforms.
