All that we imagined was nothing
compared with this. Back in the
states no one knows; it is impossible
to know. This torn ground; these burn
ed fields; these stripped trees. Nothing
lives You feel death everywhere.
But you feel glory declared an
American officer because it was here
that France saved the world. And
everything lives because Verdun is
immortal
AT Rheims, it was the cosnterna-
ton. The cathedral lifted its blackep-
ed skeleton above the ruins df the city.
My American tourists looked at it all
IN amazement and stupor.
The dirty boches. The dirty
boches" They cried these words ex-
pressing their contempt, their anger
and their hate
AT Berry-au- BAG. in the center Of
whole devastated fields. above the i'm
mense crater where two French battal-
ions were buried alive. and where
this frightful sepulchrc opened at
our heet, there were tears in the eyes
of everyone

the American women. to walk on the
ground that is the grave of SO many
brave French. Come. let's go away
It is sacrilegc to remain here, and
so together we entered our aufoino-
biles and hurried away

LOCAL PEOPLE
ON N. PIT R AIMS
WHICH CRASHED
Miss Leila Diessen Cut About
Face by Glass and Others
Are Shaken Up
MIsREAD ORDERS CAUSE?

Several Bismarck people who were
on Northern Pacific trains and >
when they crashed head-On near >le-
dina Saturday, are cOngratulatins
themselves today on escaping a bad
wreck All OF them were shaken up
and few were cut by falling glass.
Miss Leila Diessem, of the state i'm
migration department., suffered pain
full cuts from falling glass and medi
cal attention was required Among the
other Bismarck people who were on
the train were D. r. Owens, E. B..
Woodward, Mrs. A. G.. Jacobson and
Frank Milhollan. .>
Miss Diessem was reported resting
comfortably today. In addition to
severe cuts about the head and face,
she was badly shaken up and suffer-
ed a severe nervous shock. Upon
reaching the city on the belated train
at 10 p. m. Saturday, she was taken
to the Grand Pacific hotel were meGl-
cal attention was given.
Conductor p F. Delmore, Of Fargo.
and Brakeman t.. c. Larkin, of Far
go, both on No. 2, are given credit for
averting a terrific smash-up. They set
the air brakes on No. after the train
had run by the siding where it had
been ordered to wait for No. l., accord
ing to reports Of the wreck given here
today Train No 2 was brought al
most to standstill when the crash
came, and although the emergency
brakes were set the trains came to-
gether with terrific impact. The
front ends of the engines were smash
ed and locked together, so that 1t took
several hours for the wrecking crew 70
cut them apart.
It is said that the misreading OF Or
ders by Engineer James Taylor, on
No. 2, was the cause Of the wreck. he
is reported to have got his orders
mixed for Nos. l and and ran by. AS
they passed. Conductor Delmore pulled
the cord, but it failed to work. and he
then ordered Brakeman Larkln 10 SET
the brakes. Engineer Taylor immed-
lately applied emergency brakes ana
train No. was sighted conf ing round
a curve. There were two engines pull
ine No. / the first in charge OF Engl-
neer Charles Porter and the second IN
charge of Engineer Thomas Turner,
both of Jamestown.
After the emergency brakes were SET
on both trains the crews leaped from
the engine cabs, and Porter suffered
some hurts. Most of the passengers
in No. were shaken lightly but manv
of those on No. 2 were thrown from
their seats. Dishes in the dining car
on No. l were smashed and the cook
was scalded by hot water, it Is said.
The trains met on high embank-
ment, and vt is considered remarkable
that no coaches left the track.

An eleventh-hour attempt to un-
dermine the strength of Judge w.
l.. Nuessle, who, with Judge Cof-
fey, is candidate for reelection
for district judge with indeten-
dent endorsement, was reported
today. .,.-
Judge Nuessie, of Bismarck,
and Judge Coffey, of Jamestown.
are the candidates for judge in
Fourth judicial district who re-
ceived the highest votes in the
primary. Their two opponents
are still in the race, and a great
effort is being made to overturn
- the strength of Judge Nuessle,
because of his important posi-
ton in Bismarck. where many
lawsuits originate which might
be turned to political advantage
by a favorable court decision.
Judge Nuessle has steadfastly
refused to allow politics to enter
into his court, and it is because
Of this stand that Townley forces
are attacking him. .... /
In urging the election of his
opponent the Townley paper here
says that a man of unimpeach
able honesty" is needed on the
bench, carrying the insinuation
that Judge Nuessle is not that
sort. People Of Bismarck, who
know of Judge Nuessle's record,
are expected to give him an over
whelming majority. 4
