If I come safely through' all this I wiI'. llook back on it as A champion holl- dsy at the Government's expense. In a, second letter he says: We have

It WHS hot‘sc~boxes we travelled in, not car- `riages_ and we were done up Mt" ‘twenty-four hours in these without being allowed out. We were nearly shaken to pieces. We are lodged in a barn, and have n good bed of straw. The nearest trenches are about six miles from here and we can hear the guns very plainly. By the time you get this letter I will be trying my luck in the trenches.

A REST Cl`Ifl‘f_

The following is a war correspon-

dent’s piqiinnt description of the Bri- tish Headqiiarters nt the front:

You can only get the excitement of

the war by striyipg in l.ond0n. To visit Heudqunrters is like going on ti rest cure, so quiet und dignified is this little French town in comparis- on. ,Thcre nro noi specinl editions, no rumors, no b.nnds,_rio iiinsses of rc- cruit:~i marching to martial music, no dsrkeiierl streets out here. Everyone, from the (loiiimnnder-in-".hief. down- wnrde, has ii definite duty to per- form, and his iiiind has no time to waste on the thousand-and-one tri-

subiiiurine attacks, or the time-limit of Italy's neutrality, which sends us into et-,rtssies of delight. or depth of dcsptiir at hoiue. Heiidqunrters gives you the impres- sion of being in the quietest and most religious town in the \vl10lB world. If I ever have time I shall count the churches, but their bells ring ull day and iiiost of the night. The streets seem almost deserted. You do not even see many British soldiers. Here und there are officers just passing from one of the gre:-.t administrative brnnches of the Army to nnotliei-_ The generals-the mcu who control the dcstinies und who :ire responsible for the lives .find up- keep of hiuitlrcds of tlioiisunds of nicii~puss no and fro, hardly disting- ulsliiible in pluiii lzilitiki, except for the red rind gold on their cups.

i,{i_\'DON, April 10.-A white paper. published Inst night, gives correspon- dence which passed between’the Eng- lish and German Foreign Offices 'through the -li. B. Ambassador with respect to the treatment of British prisoners of war in Germany. It con- tains many “painful statements," ac- cording to the News, and the follow- ing is made by a French priest refer- ring to the treatment of prisoners in Jlinden. _

The German soldiers kicked the Bri-

tish prisoners in the stomach and broke their guns over their backs. They forced them to sleep out in marshy places, so that many are now consumptives. The British are almost starved and such has been their tor- ‘ture that thirty of then: ii-ik-"I to lc shot. l The testimony is quoted by Sir Edward Grey in'a letter dated Decem- ber 26th_ Grey stated that informa- tion of the had treatineilt Of Bl°i¢iBh prisoners reached him from a variety of sources. ' | A Russian doctor, who had return- ed to Petrogrud after being detained three weeks near Ralsund, said that ‘British officers were openly insulted Iiy ii. lieutenant who was in charge.

A letter received by the Speaker of

the I-louse of Commons from a Frenchiraii known to him, contained this statement: ~"At Minden- for 8 long time the prisoners were ¢8I“I>€d on marshy ground with no shelter." ' Another report from nn American states that the British prisoners were kept on very short commons und there is ni report giving details of the terrible cnnditipns of the beds.

l)fl("I‘(iR SMGKES; .\`l(!K WAlL.-

A letter froiu thc interment camp

at Ruhlebeii says: “The ‘officers there treat the prisoners with brutality, rven using personal violence. The mien sometimes have not received n scrap of meat for a whole week. The in- gredients of the spun seein to be to a great extent condemned stores. The sick wailed all dtiy, but no doc- tor came,-although he could he seen walking about the square for hours smoking cigarettes."

Sir Edward Grey complained on

.lauuary 29 that the treatment of 0f`- ficers :it l\'tivalier, Schnruhorsf. and Madgeburg was such “that there is danger of both physical and mental deterioration.” There was some in- vestigation tit Ruhleben and since March 7, “ii very important change hns taken place in the food supply. The caterer has_ been dispensed with_” Notwithstanding this, Sir Edward Grey again complained on March 14 that information from ii prriiiiiiient officinl of the British Red l‘ross So- |Ci0t.V showed that prisoners in Ger- insny "ner-e being kept. very short of food, if not starved."

On Mnrch 20 lic ivrote that n com-

munication from the German govern- iiient revealed the fact that “there :ire fomtile prisoners in the Germim detention camps."

The German reply to the com- pliiint, was long delayed and when they Caine were made of denials and excuses such ns this: "It will cer- tainly be udiiiitted by every. tIii~cv'i|ii- intiting llritish inmate of the canip at Ruhlehen thiit inthe face of the :ittcmpt of his own Government to starve the German people the bill of ture offered is nbove criticism.” ._ .\ statement forwarded by the Arri~ erican nmliassndor on March 17, re- lating to ii fund of $100,000 made av- ailable by the British Government for British combatant and norl-com- fmtant prisoners, says: "The (Ger- -mnni Foreign Ofilceistates that there are no objections to this distribu- tion, hut it cnnnot be used in any events Ion the purchase of tobacco, ciiocolate, bread or cake from the German und Austrian supplies.

"However, no objection is inter-

posed to sending simple foodstuffs, sweets, and so forth, to prisoners from home; hut prisoners will not be allowed bread in excess of the allot- ment which is the same as that of the fiermiin troops quartered Hmong civilians. The allotted rations being adequnte for Germans, they are ride- qnate fon prisoners, too, ivho cannot he permitted to live better thnn the population of the captor."

The owner of' the sheep happened to overiiezir it, and after the f’oi'emaii moved tiivuy he risked the recruit whi' he took If so meckly.

“l'ni hungry," crime the siinple rc-

ply. "I want to cat."

“Lick that f'eilow and l‘II give you

The hand turned on his heel, rind

picking up some fleet-.es walked over and lurclied against the foremtiii, who started to curse Iiini. lu a flush the iiew man was upon him. f

“You're going to settle this thing
