Important 70 Mothers
AS WAS SEEN IN A DREAM
Brought to Safety by
Big Maori.

Many well-authenticated stories are
told of how sweethearts and wives
have been warned by dreams and
telepathy Of impending danger to
loved ones at the front. One Of the
most vivid stories on record Is related
by a young lady whose fiancee was
recently wounded, says London Tit
Bits.
Almost as soon as she fell asleep
one night she dreamed that she saw
her fiancee in the trenches preparing
for a raid. In her dream she saw him.
with many others, climb out OF the
British trenches, cross No Mans Land,
and enter the enemy's lines. Her
dream became confused for a mo-
ment and then quite plainly she saw
! him climb on the parapet of the Ger
man trench and fall forward wounded.
A big man came up, took the wound
ed man on his shoulder, and carried
him back to the British lines. Inc
young lady awoke feeling very
alarmed and the next day wrote 10
her fiance for news.
A few days afterward she received
a letter FROM him in hospital, stating
that on the night of her dream, about
midnight, he was one Of a raldng
party, composed of English and New
Zealanders, and was wounded Whilst
standing on the top Of the German
trench. A big Maori carried him BACK
to the British lines, exactly as he
young lady had pictured in her dream

AMERICANS QUIT BELGIUM
German Government Orders U. S. Citi
zens to LeaVe-Relief Workers
Give Notice of Withdrawal.

London, Feb 13.-The American
commission for relief in Belgium has
officially notified the German authori-
ties that the Americans will withdraw
from participation in the relief work
in Belgium and northern France.
This step was taken in reply to an
order from the German authorities
that Americans must withdraw from
the provinces of Belgium and northern
France, leaving only few of their
representatives, headed by Brand
Whitlock, American minister to Bel
GUM, in Brussels. The action of the
commission is explained in a state
ment by commission directors which
says:
I'VE were advised Feb. IL by Direc-
tor Warren G.. Gregory from Brussels
that Baron Won der Lancken (civil
governor of Brussels) had notified him
that American citizens could no longer
occupy positions in Connection with the
commission in the occupied territories
of France and Belgium, but that few
Americans, among them Brand Whit
lock, might reside in Brussels and
exercise general supervision of the
work. Mr.. Whitlock, however, was to
have no diplomatic standing. Further,
automobiles and other means of COM
munication would be denied Ameri-
cans. In view of this order the
American members of the commission
could no longer carry out their resopn-
sibilities and undertakings to other in
terested governments and fulfill their
duties toward the people of Belgium
and northern France, Americans will
officially withdraw from participation
in the work of relief in the occupied
districts"
