500 every morning! 500 every after
noon! Broken old men, sick old
women and starving little children,
mostly orphans.
Thus do the refugees come through
the little French border town of EVAN,
back from the Prussian-blasted districts of
Northern France.
Useless to the slave-driving Huns are
these wrecks of humanity-but to France
they are just mother burden Of war.
Do you sense the <'charity'' of Kultur?
The ''Orphans of EVAN! Poor little
kiddies! So thin, so lonely, so fright
ened after nearly four years under
their German military masters.
But wait, Red Cross nurses will take
them in charge; your Red Cross-our
own noble American women! Yet even
from them the children shrink away filled
with the old terror of Prussianism. And

MERRY WIDOW TO DIE
French Woman Found Guilty by
Court liaI.
Sold Military Secrets to thA Germans
In Letters TO Her
Children.

Paris, France-Brlef announcement
has just been made that a Paris court
martial has condemned to death as
a spy Nine. NJ, thirty-seven years
old. Her son, Noel. sixteen years old,
who was accused Of being her accom-
plice, was ordered to a penitentiary
colony until he comes of age. The
court believed he was~too young to be
held responsible for his acts.
As the case was not heard In public
only a few details have become known,
such as that Nine. MS husband was
killed at the front In March, 1916, and
that the wife soon started a life that
earned her, in the circles she frequent
ed, the name of "The Merry Widow"
She soon ran through the money she
inherited, and, to obtain more, eommu-
nicated with a Greek living In Spain,
an agent Of the spy bureau established
In Barcelona by the Germans.
When mother and son were arrested,
the boy was just about to engage In
the aviation service in order to obtain
information to be supplied to Germany.
A writer in the Paris Midi identifies
the Greek as the head of German prop
uganda in Spain and director in par
ticular Of the service for arranging ex-
plosions in factories. He was a reg
ular visitor to the girls school at Bar
celona, where he went to see three
little girls whose guardian he was
supposed to be. One of the youngest.
about eleven years old, handed over
to him, on each visit, several letters,
which he carried away.
These three little girls were French,
being the daughters of Nine. NJ. The
merry Widow" used to pass on any
information that she obtained to her
son, who wrote 1t to his young sister,
placing it in the middle of his letters,
which were never really examined,
when 1t was seen that they were let
tiers from a brother to a little sister
at school.
