But it is in sporty toggery that the

Sioux Falls, S. D.-Refusing to live
longer in Lincoln township, Douglas
county, because it is populated almost
exclusively with persons of German
birth or descent, William Mcmahon, a
farmer of the township, announces
that he has sold his farm in Seer

Nonpartisan league ticket, which is
alleged to have been backed by every

HUNS FEAR NEGROES
Offer Reward for Each Colored
Soldier Captured.
Now Attract Great Attention In Occu.
pied Sections Of
Germany.

With the American Army of Occu-
pation.-Wherever American negroes
have appeared in the area occupied by
the Americans they have attracted
great attention among the civilians.
In Treves, Coblenz and other places,
during the early days of the occupa-
ton, crowds assembled wherever any
negro soldiers stopped in the streets,
and 1t was necessary for the military
police to enforce the orders prohibit
ing gatherings in the public thorough
fares.' Even yet In Coblenz and Treves,
where there are q number of negro
soldiers, the negroes attract crowds of
German children every time they ap-
pear in the streets.
The German soldier also regards the
negro with great curiosity. According
to a discharged German soldier In
Rengsdorf, the German army, early In
the war, offered a reward of 400
marks for the capture alive of each
negro. The discharged German soldier
said that throughout the war German
soldiers lived in great fear, and even
terror, of the negroes, and 1t was In
order to overcome this fear that re-
wards were offered
One evening on the front a scouting
party, consisting of ten Germans, in
Guiding the discharged soldier, encoun-
tered two French negroes. In a fight
which followed one of the negroes es-
capped, the other being taken prisoner.
In the fight two of the Germans left
their comrades and ran to the protec-
ton Of their own trenches, but these,
1t was explained, were young soldiers
and unframed. The reward of 400
marks subsequently was divided
among the remaining six Germans for
capturing the French negro.

London.-The story of a colonel of
Australian infantry who was wound
ed in the Gallipoli campaign and sent
| back to Australia, but who concealed
his rank and re-enlisted as a private
to serve with the Australians in
France, has added to the esteem in
which Australians are held in London.
Col. Charles Melville Mac Naghten,
the hero of the story, is hailed as a
man Of gallantry and grit.
He was the son of Sir Melville Mac
Naghten, chief of the criminal investi-
cation department of Scotland yard,
says the Daily Mail. and was practic-
ing law in Australia when the war be-
gan. He was the major in command
of the First brigade which landed at
Amaze Cove on Gallipoli peninsula.
Within two days he was wounded
three times. After recovery in Eng
land he returned to Gallipoli and led
his battalion in their immortal charge
at Lone Pine.
Ordered Back to Australia.
After the evacuation of Gallipoli he
served for a time In Egypt and was
sent from there to England, suffering
from wounds and fever. Surgeons re-
fused him permission to return to &C.
tive service, and he was sent to Aus
tralia as second in command of an
Australian training camp.
One day he slipped away from the
camp and Joined a replacement bat
TALON in Queensland under the name
of Charles Melville, and soon after
ward was back In England training on
Salisbury plain as Private Melville.
He was quickly promoted to be cor
poral, and one day was asked by his
commanding officer:
Corporal, do you think you could
drill this company"
Having commanded brigade, the
corporal put the company through its
PAGES like the veteran he was.
Recognized by Officers.
Back In France again, he was rec
ognized by officers who had known
him in Gallipoli as the daring ana
brilliant soldier they had called
Fighting Mac" General Birdwood,
with whom he had served at Lone
Pine, sent for him and gave him a
commission. Not long afterward
Colonel Mac Naghten was again sent
as an invalid to England, where he
was summoned to Buckingham palace
to receive from the king a decoration
as a companion of the order of st.
Michael and st. George, which had
been conferred upon him several
years before for his gallantry at Gal
lipoli.
While serving in the ranks in
France as Corporal Melville" he had
been personally~ congratulated by the
commanding general for valor al
Messines ridge.
Mac Naghten's fighting days are
now over and he is compelled to rec
ognize this fact, for, as one of his
men put it, she is riddled like a
colander and it is only his fighting
spirit which keeps him alive"
