FAILS.
By Associated Prsss.

Paris, Nov. 18.-Louis Forest, Of
the editors OF the Matin, succeeded In
entering Metz, his hoAe town, yester-
day. He was the first Frenchman to
enter since hostilities ceased. A re-
volt occurred in Metz November 10
and a soldiers council was formed I'M
der two socialist workmen and q nom
commissioned officer. The member
ship Of the council was made up Of a
few workmen and many soldiers.
Governor Won Lequis attempted to
resist and marched a squadron OF cav
airy with machine guns to the Place
Des Armes. He ordered h cavalry to
charge, but they fraternized with he
mutineers. The governor then ordered
all the authorities to place themselves
at the service of the revolutionists.
But the influence Of h council
proved evanescent and the council lost
Sll popularity. When 1t WAS seen that
the troops would not be able TO get
away at once the soldiers got out OF
hand md pillaged the military stores.
4 civic guard was formed, but on Sat
urday one of the las German reRi-
ments to leave broke into O cham
payne factory at Moulins. There was
trouble and the civic guards had TO re-
treat when the drunken soldiers began
to use machine guns.
The situation at Metz, M. Forest re-
ports, 10 difficult. The city is sur
rounded by armed bands and the pop
ulation Ia anxious for the arrival Of

LIVED UP TO HIS HOPE
TO BE A GOOD SOLDIER

Sioux Falls, s.. d., Nov. 20-Fear that
he might not measure up to the highest
test of worth appears to have occupied
the mind OF Capt. Peter Brethorst, a
Lennon young man, who recently met
a hero's death while fighting gallantly
with the American troops in France
during the last moments before he and
comrades went to h .a~ttack--the at
tack in which he lost his life. The
following letter, written by him just
before going into action, and which
therefore was the last letter to be writ
ten by him, has been received by his
South Dakota relatives:
Then j shall get my baptism Of fire,
and then ] can know what stuff there
is in me. ] hope to make good and
reflect honor on those who love me, and
to know that ] am Yorth while in this
great game. We are always In doubt
about that until we are tried out.
II am not afraid of n danger. am
afraid only that ] may no measure up
to the highest test OF worth in this
great game.
IT often think of Paul's The time OF
my departure Is at hand. l have fought
a good fight, ] nave finished the course.
! have kept the faith except that the
terms should be the future OF deter
mination.
II love France and all that pertains
to her. It is a beautiful country. with
wonderful people, the bright spot OF
humanity. France can have NIL OF
everything I have whenever she wants
it,"
This Ietter--the last to be written by
him--is to his parents n other rela-
tives much like a communication from
the grave. Needless to say the letter
will become hallowed in the family ira
ditions. Before entering the service
OF his country Captain Brethorst was
a school teacher, having taught in Len
nox and other towns. He was exceed
ing popular and had a wide circle OF
acquaintances IN southeastern South
Dakota,
