CHAPTER xIII-continued.

CHAP &III-Continue0.
49,
Enormous forces of artillery were
being mobiIized. New guns continued
to arrive every day and were installed
without going into action. The trans
portation of munitions and material
was also very brisk. We did not sus-
pect at this time that this was the first
preparation for a great offensive
After four weeks in this vicinity we
were sent to another part of the front.
once more without being told our des-
tination. We marched away and in the
afternoon we arrived at Dun-sur-
Meuse.
Hardly had we entered the town
when tho German crown prince, accom-
panied oy several officers and a large
pack of hunting dogs rode by.
"Good morning, pioneers J" he called
out to us.
Then he inspected our unit closely.
He spoke to our captain, after which
one of the officers of his staff took us
to a Red Cross establishment where
we were banqueted and given wine.
The headquarters of the Hohenzol-
lern heir were located at Dun-Sur-
Meuse. The ladies of the Red Cross
treated us cordially. We asked them
If all passing troops were as well treat
ed as we had been.
"Oh, yes" h young woman answered,
''but only few come here. The crown
prince. however, has an especial at
tachment for the pioneers"
We were quartered over night. Sol
diers told us that Dun-sur-Meuse was
the headquarters of the Fifth army.
There were gay times in the town, with
an open-air concert every day. The Off
GERS often received women visitors
from Germany.
After a hard march we arrived at
the front positions. In a veritable
labyrinth of trenches, filed with water
we had the utmost difficulty finding
our way about. Finally we arrived at
the very front. The French were only
ten meters away and before we had
been there two days we took part in a
hand grenade encounter.
Some distance back we established a
pioneer depot. Twenty-Five of our men
did nothing but assemble hand gre
nadeS. We were soon settled and ready
for an emergency.
In camp we were divided among
various troops. They showed us how
the warfare waged at this front re-
quired every imaginable kind of fight
ing. There was mining, sapping, hand
grenade throwing, mine throwing and
light patrol battles. This went on day
after day and night after night, with
4S hours in the trench and q 12-hour
rest. The shortage of men made q
less strenuous schedule impossible.

CHAPTER XIV.

Each day in the Argonne levied its
toll of victims. sometimes many, some
times only a few. 1t is only natural
that the morale of the soldiers should
not be at its best under these circum-
stances. With the same indifference
that the men had once gone to their
work to support their wives and chill
drcn they now went into action. This
business OF killing had become daily
routine. Whenever we discussed our
situation. the crown prince and the
commander of the Sixteenth army
corps, Lieutenant General Won Mudra,

The troops In the Argonne forest be-
longed to the Sixteenth corps, the Thir-
ty-third and Thirty-fourth divisions
Neither the crown prince nor Won Mud
IA had ever been seen in the trenches.
One Of the members ON the crown
princes staff was the old field mar
shal. Count Won Haeseler. former COM
mander of the Sixteenth corps, who,
before the war. was considered q hu-
man nend- These three called Clover
Leaf by the soldiers, were far more de-
spised by most Of the men than were
the French cannon, which sought our
miserable lives
The Hohenzollern heir did not find
life hard at his headquarters several
kilometers behind the battle 'front.' 1t
was easy for him to make himself

CHAPTER XIV.

The entire forest of Argonne was
blown to pieces when we arrived.
Everywhere was artillery, which main
tanned a fire on the villages behind the
enemy's positions.
+ One of the many batteries which we
constantly had to pass on our march
from the camp to the front, was in ac-
tion when we reached it.
+ 1 asked one of the gunners what his
objective was and he replied that it
was any village within range.
; A substitute first lieutenant, In
charge of the battery, stood nearby.
One of my comrades asked him if he
did not think there might be women
and children in those villages.
''That would make no difference"
the first lieutenant replied. "Women
and children are French, so what does
it matter2 This breed has to be ex-
terminated In order that this nation
shall not think of war again for q GEN.
tury.'
! This day was DESIGNATED for n
storming attack and we were obliged
ite be in our positions at seven O'Clock
in the morning. Promptly at 8 80 regi-
ment No. 67 was ordered to attack.
Pioneers led the way. They were sup
piled with hand grenades. These week
ly attacks were opened half an hour
before the infantry went over by a
storm of artillery fire. The artillery
action required very careful calcula-
ton because the distance which sepa-
rated our position from the enemy's
was very slight. 1t varied from three
to one hundred meters; never any
more At the point where we attacked
the distance was 20 meterA.
Promptly at eight o'clock the artil-
lery started. The first three shells
struck a ditch, but the following ones
hit fairly. that is. right In the French
trenches. Once the artillery had the
proper range whole salvos OF batteries
descended upon them with admirable
exactness- The cries OF the wounded
were heard once more, q sign that
many had been hit
An artillery officer acted as observer
In the foremost sense and directed the
IRE By Phone. Promptly at 8 80 O'Clock
the artillery fires stopped and we at
tackled. The eleventh company of the
Sixty-seventh regiment, OF which I
spoke before. came under the fire OF
the enemy's machine guns aud lS of its
men were killed after they mad only
procee1ed . few steps outside the
trench-
Western Kansas world., 1918-10-17

Dead and wounded men lay among
the branches and the trees everywhere
ON the ground. Every man who was
able to run sped forward to reach the
enemy trench as quickly as possible A
part of the enemy defended itself des-
perately In a trench filled with water
and mud A terrible hand-to-hand fight
resulted. We stood in water up to our
knees.
Men, severely wounded, lay I'm the
mud, holding their mouths and noses
above the water. During the fighting
they were trampled more deeply into
the dirt under our feet for we could
not see where we were going; we could
only ''roll up" the entire trench.
The section won was fortified with
all possible haste. Once more we had
acquired at heavy cost in human life
a few meters of the Argonne forest.
This trench, which we took, had
changed hands many times and even
now we were preparing for the usual
counter-attacks.
Presently the 'jackasses" went into
action. The 'jackasses" are the guns
of the French mountain artillery. They
were so named because they were
drawn by mules. They are guns Of fiat
trajectory, kept from so to 100 meters
behind the enemy lines. The shells
from these cannon flew directly over
our heads and cut their way through
the branches at a high rate of speed.
Because of the high velocity of the
shell and the short distance it travels
the detonation when the shot is fired
and the noise of the explosion, sound
almost at the same instant. These
'jackasses" are greatly feared by the
German soldiers because they are kept
working day and night
1t was winter and very cold. The
trenches had been filled with water
and were now nothing except deep
bitches of mud. Under these condi-
tions, through the ice-cold nights, our
routine consisted of 4S hours duty
and II hours rest. Every week a storm
ing attack was made, the success of
which was entirely out of proportion
to the enormous losses. In all Of the
four months I was in the Argonne for
ests we gained 400 meters. The fol-
lowing data will indicate how heavy a
price was paid in lives for this little
piece of France.
Each regiment had its own ceme-
terry. There was the One Hundred and
Forty-fifth infantry regulars, the Sixty
seventh, and One Hundred and Seven
ty-third infantry regulars and the
One Hundred and Fifth Hirsch-
berg battalion. On the day we were re-
lieved from duty in the Argonne for
ests there were more dead in these
cemeteries than there were survivors

CHAPTER XVI.

The next day we received orders to
march to an unknown destination. We
soon arrived at the depot of Apremont
where we were obliged to wait. The
depot had been destroyed. The next
station was Chatel. Both of these
places are about five kilometers behind
the front.
The prisoners were assembled in
Apremont. Several of them had come
from that town. Their families were
still in their homes ana many prisoners
asked permission to visit them. had
occasion to witness such a visit in APP
remont. Two reserves led one of the
prisoners to the house, which he had
pointed out as his. The prisoners
young wife was in the kitchen with her
three children. We followed them into
the house.
The woman turned pale as she sud-
denly saw her husband. They em-
braced. We went outside for we felt
out of place there.
The woman had mot had a letter
from her husband for i've months be-
cause the Germans were between her
and her husbands army. He had been

How Germany Can
Overthrow Power
of War Leaders

Elimination or emasculation of
military autocracy in Germany
the prime requisite of peace. ac-
cording TO President Wilson
means radical amendment of
the German constitution. placing
the war and peace making powers
in the hands of the people.
This amendment can be secured
by Legislative act. by bill passed
thru the bundesrath. or federal
council. which is the upper house
of the German parliament, and
then thru the reichstag. which is
now in session.
The bundesrath is composed of
81 members. appointed by the in
dividual kingdoms, duchies, etc.
OF the empire. and the people
have no voice in their selection.
The reichstag. however. is sup
posed to be selected by popular
manhood suffrage. and this body.
which is growing In democratic
strength and boldness, can pass n
constitutional amendment. provid-
ed II members of the bundesrath
do not vote against II,
Since the reichstag has been as
suming noteworthy opposition to
the military autocracy in recent
weeks, IL is held likely 1t soon will
begin a fight for the legislative
enactment necessary to rid Ger
many of kaiser powers and clear
the path for peace.

Wilson--Cod Bless Him!

For the clear vision which safeguards humanity
against peace which would only bring another war;
let US give thanks today.
For the candid statement of peace terms; for
the honest and broad-minded principles proposed by
him; for the sureness of his decision and the frness
of his resolve to sit at peace" table with the blood
thirsty kaiser, let thank him.
There is no buster and no bullying in Wilson's pro-
nouncements. But he cuts clean. His words as
clear crystal His meaning is decisive Kaiserism
must go ere peace come, he asserts.
And Kaserism is going!
Hear the rumble in Hunland.
The chancellor of a few days has resigned. The
socialists at Munich following the socialist demand for
Maxmilian's resignation today demanding the
kaisers abdication. And Bohemian officials declare
that the Austrian revolution has begun.
Autocracy is topping. Peace forever-the peace
