"Well," exclaimed Rudolph at last,

though he be emperor p and he strobe
out. leaving me speechless with sur
prise.
A few minutes later l assembled to
the deck in order to refresh my mud
died senses. / was walking up the
deck when suddenly l saw before me
several Of the personal suite, who sa-
luted as the kaiser, naughty and erect,
passed with quick. angry step.
As he approached / saw a figure
emerge and stand in bis path. 1t was
that of Won Lantzsch.
The kaiser lifted his hand, and, with
some imperious words, struck the man
who stood In his path.
In a second Won Lantzsch, in a fury
of passion. raised his fist, planting a
direct blow at the emperor's jaw and
sending him spinning against some
deck chairs.
Wild shouts arose from the officers
who had been chatting near, two of
whom rushed towards the emperor,
but the latter had instantly recovered
himself, and with a grim smile con-
tinued his walk and went below.
Naturally, we all expected the hus-
sar captain to be put under arrest.
But he was not. He entered my cabin
smiling and merry an hour afterwards
the only man who had dared to give
back blow for blow to the emperor.
A Midnight Command.
Among the encourage there was, of
course. much gossiping. The cause
of the fraeas was to them a complete
mystery. What had occurred preyi-
ously in my cabin was unknown to
them, and as loyal servant of his
majesty at that time it was not my
place to reveal anything whatsoever
of a private nature. Therefore the
amount of whispering that went on on
board that evening may be readily
imagined.
Just before midnight, as I was about
to turn in, received a command to
go to the emperor's cabin wherein he
worked.

Big GUNS OFTEN INACCURATE
While Necessary in Offensive Warfare
Heavy Artillery is Not in Same

BY A FRENCH SOLDIER.
On the Chicago Daily News1


PariS.-Months of furious assault on
the French lines at Yerdun, which
have brought into play the most pow
erfuI known means of attack, have
barely succeeded in bending the adj
versary's lines. There is, it is true, a
diminution of forces on both sides, and
one may look forward to the day when
the accumulation of material and the
superiority in numbers of men on the
side of the allies will enable the latter
to break more rapidly the adversary's
tenacious resistance.
But why is it, one asks, that despite
the accumulation of heavy cannon it
costs so much in men aud money and
time to break the enemy's resistance?
It is because this war is being fought
In a period of development of the art
OF war, in which the means OF defense
are vastly superior to the means of
offense in the facility with which they
can be brought into action and manu-
featured at low cost, and above all in
their efficacy, arising both from the
difficulty which the adversary finds in
demOlishing them. and from the abso-
Lutte accuracy of their aim.
Means of Defense.
To understand this one has merely
to review the means of defense at the
of the armies in the field

barbed wire that prevents access TO
them, which are the basis Of the pres
snt system of defense, and Of which

F TO WILLIAM LEQUEUX

{ On entering I found him seated at
his table, his uniform tunic unbut-
toned, his hair slightly rufied, by which
1 knew that he had been writing hard.
''Von Heltzendorff," he said, as 1
stood beside his table, you were Wit
ness Of the insults placed upon me this
afternoon Does anyone except our
selves know what occurred in your
cabin?"
Il have not told a soul, your ma
jesty," was my reply.
"But the officer who has raised his
hand against the sovereign to whom
he swore allegiance may have done p
he said. ''There is but one way In
which he may atone for his offense
against majesty. Hand this to him."
And he gave me a letter addressed
in his own hand-addressed with all
Won Lantzsch's titles and distinctions.
1t was sealed with the emperor's we'll
known black wax.
Ten minutes later 1 handed the cap
tain the emperor's letter.
He tore it open, read its contents,
and then gave queer. nervous laugh,
it seemed TO me.
Thanks. Heltzendorff 1t was my
turn tonight TO be on duty with his
majesty, but did not feel equal TO it.
Goodnight"
Early next morning one of the i'm
perial stewards entered and, awaken
ing me, asked me to go to Captain Won
Lantzsch's cabin
On entering I found him lying dead
on his berth with blood oozing from a
pistol wound in the temple.
Upon the little shelf of the folding
washstand was a note addressed to
me.
On opening it found these words
scrubbed in pencil:
'Dear Heltzendorff: have taken
my life at the order of his majesty.
Am not q loyal subject after all?--

By noon the body of the kaiser's
victim had been landed at Bodo, where
it now reposes in the little cemetery
beneath those high snow-clad crags
which rise against the gray. turbulent

Many fantastic reports have been
whispered concerning the incident. but,
being one of the actors in the drama,
am able here for the first time to
reveal the actual truth.
