CHANGES OPINION OF
Marine As FIGHTER
Captured German Officers Diary
Reveals Sudden Amendment
in Valuation.

Secretary Daniels authorizes the fol-
lowing:
How the cOntemptuous opinion Of
the Germans for the fighting ability of
American troops may be changed lit
orally overnight is shown in an ex-
tract from the diary of a German Off
Ger who was captured and taken into
the American lines by the marines.
A translation of the diary has just
been received at marine corps head
quarters.
Reserve Lieutenant Tillmanns, the
writer of the diary, belonged to the
Second battalion of the FOrtieth regi-
ment Baden Guards, Twenty-eighth
division. This was the fourth division
which the marines had against them in
the fighting around Chateau-Thierry
The other three were so badly cut up
that they could not carry out their
orders to attack.
The extract from Lieutenant Till
manns diary follows:

court because it did not belong to our

God, was repulsed. God has again

The diary ends abruptly, as the next
day the writer was prisoner in the
hands of the Americans.

drums throbbed.
The city had not yet risen. II was
large and slow to move. Slow, too, to
believe in treason, or that IL had no

ments now, not Of hours.
The noise penetrated into the very
wards of the hospital. Red fires bathed
pale faces on their pillows in fever
ish glow. Nurses gathered at the win
dows, their uniforms and faces alike
scarlet in the glare, and whispered to-
gether.
One such group gathered near the
bedside of the student Haeckel, still
in his lethargy. His body had gained
strength, so that he was clothed at
times, to wander aimlessly about the
ward. But he had remained dazed.
Now and then the curtain Of the past
lifted, but for q moment only. He had
forgotten his name. He spent long
hours struggling to pierce the mist.
But mostly he lay, or sat. as now.

head, clad in shirt and trousers, bare
feet thrust into worn hospital slippers.
The red glare had not reused him, nor
yet the beat of the drums. But word
or two that one of the nurses spoke
caught his ear and held him. He
looked up, and slowly rose to his feet.
Unsteadily he made his way to win
dow. holding to the sill to steady him
self.
Old Adelbert had been working his
way impatiently. The temper of the
mob was growing ugly. 1t was
suspicious, frightened, potentially dan
gerous. The cry of "To the palace!"
greeted his ears as he finally emerged
breathless from the throng.
He stepped boldly to the old stone
archway, and faced line of soldiers
there. 81 would see the chancellOr"
he gasped, and saluted.
The captain of the guard stepped
out. "What Is 1t you want?" he de-
"The chancellor" he lowered his
voice. II have news Of the crown
prince"
Magic words, indeed. Doors opened
swiftly before them. But time was
flying, too. In his confusion the old
man had only one thought, to reach
the chancellor. 1t would have been
better to have told his news at once.
The climbing of stairs takes time when
one is old and fatigued, and has but
one leg.
However at last it was done, and
old Adelbert stumped to the door of
the room where the council sat de-
batting and the chancellor paced the
floor.
Small ceremony now. Led by SOL
