Germans Handled

Teuton Officers Aided Conf.
dental Messenger; Never
Knew Ii

LONDON, March 0.-Two German Of
icers recently handled more than
dozen cases Of confidential British dis
patches, but they do not know it.
The story Is one Of the many ad-
venturous incidents which befall that
select body Of British public servants
who wear q silver greyhound in thelr
buttonhole and are known as Ming
messengers. Many people imagine thas
any one who carries dispatches for the
British government is a Kings mes'
scnger. That is not correct. There are
only five men who hold commissions IN
that service; the others are mercy
Admiralty courers or War once
couriers, and have no right to the
higher title.
The particular messenger who out
wittcd the two German officers was
burdencd with seventeen bags OF as
patches for a British embassy. andn nc
had to change trains at night at sIa.

baggage was near the sleeping con'
partment when his train drew near, pu'
there was no porter available. he nsu
only put five Of the bags into the eo"-
partment when the Warning whistle was
sounded that the train was starting.
The messenger was IN a dilemma nv
could not let tie FIVE bags go without
him nor could he leave the other dozen.

caught sight of two German cavalry op'
iicers. 1t was Il risk to speak to then,
but i'll his best South German diales'
and with his face in shadow he rs.
9uested their help. They were Iess'

The last bag was bundled aboard wisa
