And There Was No Mercy.
Another, who says he is afraid to
mention his name, or give his rcgi
ment, for fear of courtmartial, was an
eyewitness of inhuman slaughter of
Russian soldiers in the Mazurian
lakes and swamps, saying:
"It was frightful, hcart-rondinp. rs
those masses Of human beings were
driven TO destruction. Above The ter
rlble thunder of the cannon could be
heard the hcart-rending cries Of the
Russians: % Prussians! O Prus-
SLAMS! But there was 10 mercy. Our
captain had orders: "The whole lot
must die, so rapid-frc.' As l have
heard, five men and one officer on our
side went mad from these heart-rend
ing cries. But most Of my comrades
and the officers joked as the unarmed
and helpless Russians shrickcd for
mercy while they were being suffo
Gated in the swamps and shot down.
The order was close up and at it
harder For days afterwards those
heart-rcnding yells followed me and
dare not think of them or I shall
go mad. There is no God, there is
no morality and no ethics any more.
There are no human beings any more,
but only beasts. Down with militar-
ism!
eff you are truth-loving man,
please receive these lines from COM
mon Prussian soldier"
Shoot Groups Of Prisoners.
The following letter came from a
soldier on the western front:
"To the American government,
Washington, u. S. A.
"Englishmen who have surrendered
are shot down in small groups. With
the French one is more considerate.
ask whether men let themselves be
taken prisoners in order to be dis
armed and shot afterwards? Is that
chivalry in battle? 1t is no longer
a secret among the people; one hears
everywhere that few prisoners are
taken; they are shot down in small

of the best poker players who ever
travelled over this country. On Octo-
Der 22, 1906, he was running barber
shop in Bennettsville, as "side line"
His main line then was playing poker.
Prior to that time he had been engag
ed in the saloon business in Florida.
He had not been to church in six
years. One night he accidentally
dropped in" to preaching at re-
vival meeting and "got caught" to
use his own expression. at was a
great surprise to me and to every
body who knew me-" says Mr.. Nc
Lendon, who was regarded to use his
own words, as "about the most cold
blooded proposition in the country"
Today the Rev. Mr.. McLendon
ranks along with "Billy" Sunday, as
one of the great evangelist of the
country. He gets down to the basic
facts in his sermons. He calls a
spade spade. He knows poker; he
knows how to "shoot craps;" he
knows all these matters Intimately
connected with human nature in big
cities and little, as we'll, and he
knows their evils at first-hand, and
he does not hesitate to preach against
these evils in view of his own knowl-
edge. He knows the "big world" and
he breaches from his knowledge
thereof.
Some time ago some people at
Bennettsville, his home town, wanted
him to hold a meeting there. The
pastors of the town were not very
much inclined to have him come The
business men of Bennettsvillc signed
petition and presented it to the
preachers of the city, "asking them to
invite me-" to use Mr.. McLendon's
own words, "to hold an cvangelis tic
campaign at Bennettsville, my home
town. Three leading preachers of the
town, who had never heard me preach,
refused to join in the invitation. One
of the ministers had heard me preach
and he endorsed my coming. 1 broke
one of my rules, and went to Ben
nettsville, over the protest of the
preachers of the town. The meeting

Soldiers Wounded Him and Killed His
Half Brother, Says Houston
Citizen.
SHOT PEOPLE ON STREETS
Civilians Giving Damaging Testi-
mony Against 63 Negroes
Now on Trial.

San Antonio, Texas, Nov. 5.-How
negroes Of the Twenty-fourth infan-
try shot down people in the streets,
fired into their houses, and in one in
stance, aimed deliberately at men,
bers of one family who were on their
front porch nthe night of August
23, last, was told today by Houston
civilians who lived near the camp on
the night of the riot, at the court
martial trial of the sixty-three ne
groes charged with mutiny, murder
and rioting. This was the first testi-
mony with regard to the shooting out
side Camp Logan.
Shot People on Porch.
William Drucks, with his right
hand off just above his wrist, testi-
fied that he came out on his porch and
seeing soldiers marching past called
to his sister, Miss Mary Winklcr, to
turn on the porch light, so he could
see who they were. He was at once
fired on. Standing behind him on
the porch, Drucks testified, stood
Fred Winkler, his half brother.
Winkler was shot and killed. The
witness estimated there were between
eighty-fve and 100 Of the negroes.
He said over dozen shots were fir
ed into the house.

WORK OF GERMAN AGENTS7
Five, Probably Seven, Men Are Killed
in Explosion.

kensington, Pa, Nov. 5.-Five men
are known to have been killed and
search is being made for the bodies
OF two others believed to have met
death in the explosion and fire which
destroyed the bronz powder plants of
the United States Aluminium Com
pany, subsidiary of the Aluminium
Company Of America, here today. In
all forty-eight others were injured,
seventeen seriously, and another pos
slbly fatally. r. A. Hunt, general
superintendent of the United States
Aluminium Company, said: "Therc is
a possibility that German agents arc
responsible for the fire" 1t was
stated that an investigation of the
origin of the fire will be started at
once.
The plant destroyed, employing
about 300 men, is said to have been
engaged in the making of materials
for liquid fire for an Allied govern
ment. For this reason it was impos-
sible to fight the flames with water,
and the only recourse was the use
of sand The powder plant was
wrecked and damage was done to the
plants Of the American Sheet Com
pany and Tin Plat Company nearby.
Some damage was done residents in
the town Of Parnassus, one mile dis
tant. The loss is unoflicially estmat-
ed at 100000.

SLAUGHTER MEN WHO
ARE TAKEN AS PRISONERS
German Soldiers Write of the Barba-
rites They Have Seen Inflicted
Upon Helpless Men Made Captivcs
in Battle.

Washington, Nov. 5.-Barbarities
so gross that even the German SOL
diers themselves rcbelled, are set
forth in letters which were written to
Ambassador Gerard and made public
today. The letters are included in a
forthcoming pamphlet, German War
Practices," soon to make it's appear
ance.
Here is how man who signed him
self, "a German Soldier and Christ
ian," writes:
"Russian Poland, December 18. In
the name Of Christianity l send you
these words. My conscience forces
me as Christian soldier to inform
you of these lines.
"Wounded Russians are killed with
the bayonet according to orders. And
Russians, who have surrendered, are
often shot down in masses, according
to orders, in spite of their heart-ren-
ding prayers.
"In The hope that you, as the rep
resentative of a Christian state, will
protest this, sign myself

groups. They say naively, we don't
want any unnecessary mouths to feed.
Where there is no one to enter COM
plant there is no judge Is there no
power in the world which can put
an end to these murders and rescue
the victims?
