U-Boat Captive. Tells of Thrilling Experience

f., in the submarine could, hear the thudding
quite distinctly. To and fro the de-
stroyers went, searching carefully for us.
Apparently they picked up clue, for
there were two loud explosions ahead, not
so near to us as that from the cruiser, but
quite near enough to cause the submarine
first to tremble and then to roll about as
though in Il heavy sea.
Late the following night there was
considerable rejoicing in the submarine
and the talking machines liveliest tunes
were played. The Germans had torpedoed
an oil tanker, which, according to the
commander, had sunk in thirty seconds.
could not help wondering at the makeup
of men who could rejoice at such thing,
knowing that without giving them the
slightest chance of defending themselves
or escaping they had sent the sailors to
their death. The next day We seemed to
have got out of the track of steamships,
and | went into the coming tower and
saw the officers amusing themselves by
shooting at gulls or at empty bottles.
Eventually the submarine arrived at
Hehgoland, and / was taken ashore and
handed over to military guard, mostly
composed of Alsatians My only food was
a crust of bread and piece of cheese and
some very weak soup composed mainly of
vegetables. After remaining there a day
and half was taken to Wilhelmshaven,
where again there seemed to be short
age of food, and afterward to Brandon
burg, workingmen's camp, including all
natiOnalities.

Switzerland, and eventually was released
and enabled to reach England.
AT Brandenburg, although we were
merchant ship captains, we were made t,
suffer various indignities, and to harness
ourselves to carts, which we had to draw
through the streets to the station or post
office, as the case might be, in order to
fetch our parcels or any commodities to
camp. 1t was at this camp also that
saw 300 Russian soldiers working, appar-
emily in the last stages of consumption.

Long Distance Marriages Legal

tuting what the Dutch call handschoen, or
glove marriage.
In spite of the fact that a distance Of
5000 miles lay between the bride in the
Netherlands and the bridegroom in the
Transvaal they were just as effeetually
married under the Dutch law as if both
had been present in the same church.

even more unpalatable than the black

1.-The other meals were breakfast and
supper, at which coffee, made of burned
barley and acorns, was served. The COM
mander and officers of the U-boat Jared
the same as the lower ratings, but were
able to supplement their allowances with
timed ham, &c.
Life on board the submarine was by
no means pleasant. Forced as We were
10 keep below the surface TO avoid the
British war vessels, the boat sweated and
all spare clothing became saturated with
moisture, while the atmosphere often be-
came very foul and breathing difficult.
While we were below the surface the crew
would switch on a talking machine. 1t
was the band which played triumphantly
when the U-boat got victim. The sink
ing of an innocent merchantmen gave that
crew as much joy as if they had sunk
war vessel
while | was on board we had victory
music on seven occasions, for six steam
ers were torpedoed and one sailing vessel
sunk by gunfire, thirty-nine shells being
necessary to do this. The U-boat also at
tackled several other steamers by gun fire
during the voyage, but had to submerge
owing to the interventioH of British war
vessels.
'On the third day, just after the mid
day meal, | gathered that the U-boat wa,

and torpedoed large steamer. Our
whereabouts were evidently detected II
was told, by light cruiser, for we dived
rapidly. TO a great depth. Hardly had the
boat got on an even keel when we heard
a tremendous explosion, which made the
submarine vibrate from stem to stern. 1t
was depth charge from the cruiser.
"The effect on the crew was evident. All
stood trembling, with faces blanched with
fear, not attempting to speak a word, ex
pecting second charge, the result Of
which might be the destruction of the
boat without the slightest chance of es-
cape. There is no doubt as to the state
of that crew, for it was not their first ex-
perienee of depth charge, and they had
learned from others in the service what
awful weapons they were in the hands of
skilled seamen. For some minutes we
waited; engines were stopped and all
measures were taken to prevent giving
away our position.
Minutes seem like hours III such
situation. l must admit that / was turn
ing over in my mind whether should
ever see my family again. No further
explosions, however, took place, and after
lying some eighteen fathoms deep for a
long time we continued on our voyage.
1--WE had another experience of depth
charges, or wasserbomben, as the German
sailors called them. The sailing ship re-
ferred to above had just been sunk by
shell fire when two destroyers were sighted
on the horizon and down we went. By
the microphones che propellers could be
heard, and as the vessels came nearer We
