ed. These were examined by German
physicians and 800 were taken. There
was no disorder, large force of
mounted Uhlans keeping back the
crowds and barring access to the sta
ton to all but those who had been
summoned to appear. The Com
mission for Relief in Belgium had
secured permission to give to each
deported man loaf Of bread, and
some of the communes provided
warm clothing for those who had
none and in addition small financial
allowance. AS by one of the ironies
of life the winter has been more ex-
cessively cold than Belgium has ever
known it, and while many of those
who presented themselves were ade-
quately protected against the cold,
many of them were without over
coats. The men shivering from cold
and fear, the parting from weeping
wives and children, the barriers Of
brutal Uhlans, all this made the
scene a pitiable and distressing one
1T was understood that the seiz-
ures would continue here in Brus-
sells, but on Thursday last, bitter
cold day, those that had been con-
yoked were sent home without ex
animation. It is supposed that the
severe weather has moved the Ger

Night After Night
!. Our Pet Ghost Goes
Forth TO TerrOrixe

moro nimble Of foot than usual, the
ghost walked across the waters of the
Red river. When watchers saw this
miracle. they fed in terror. probably
because they thought the next min
ute they would see a U-boat coming
to the surface.
One night an officer was called to
the scene. He is said to have crossed
the path of the ghost and started pur-
suit. Through the woods they went,
but the ghost disappeared suddenly,
and the officer returned considerably
out of breath.
Again. a young man, while walking
passed the hospital, was surprised
when the specter stepped forth and
said, r"Hello kid, are you going to
take me homer" Sure" said the kid
but he didn't wait.
