COUNTESS RETURNS
TO HER CHATEAU
Found It Was Piilaged by the
Germans

Miss Clara Longworth of Cincinnati,
O., was one of the first refugees from
st. Mihiel tc reach Paris when the
German waves swept into the ST
Mihiel salient early in the war and
she viii be one of the first to re-
turn.
When she fed from her St. Mihiel
house she was forced to abandon
most of the treasures IN it. AppaG-
emily it is intact, but conditions with

When the countess, with her moth.
er, Mrs. Longworth, her sister and
two children left St. Mihiel by auto
mobile the place was given over into
the care of a st. Mihiel woman, says
the San Francisco Chronicle. The
chateau was pillaged and everythinr
it contained, with the exception o.
one comparatively worthless pietpre
stolen by the Germans. The Germanf
used it for time as a military head
quarters and it was necessary to shell
them out.
A rare ct Election of Oriental rugr
was one of the treasures abandones'
in the house. They were assembled b.

ed by the countess. These have gone

Since her arrival in Paris th
countess and her children have bee.
making their home in palace of the
