McLeod & McGegor, Montague, P. E. I. l r _ 2431-8-7ME1i. 'rue scnilucea v._ c_. V A correspondent of the Cariadian Gazette (L0ndon3) writes: "Some things happen only once in one's life- time. lt would not be reasonable to expect them to occur again. That was what. l felt when I met the Canadian doctor who won the Victoria Cross and the oflicer whose life he saved at one and the same time. I was calling on Captain H. F. McDonald. and he was telling me how Captain F. A. C. Scrlmger, medical officer of the 14th Battalion, had earned the V. C. by saving him at the risk of his own life, when he suddenly paused in his story and said: ‘That's the man who saved mel’ -and there was Capt. Scrimger. On the stage we should think the scene untrue, but sometimes real life is more dramatic than any imagined scene. “Captain McDonald told_ his story as follows: “I was standing, on April 25, during the St. Julien fight, in front of one of the buildings, when 1 was hit in the neck and shoulder. I was promptly dragged into the building, when Captain Scrimger dressed my wounds. “I was regarded as practically done for, but Captain Scrimger carried me out and down to a moat about 50 feet in front, where we lay half under water. Captain Scriniger curled his body around my head and shouldes to protect me. We were there under heavy shell fire all the time, and Cap- tain Scrimger was risking his life by staying with me. But stay he did. and by good luck was not hit. At length, when the fire slackened, he went after some stretcher-bearers, who carried me to the dressing sta- tion. During all the fighting between April 22 and April 25, Captain Scrim- ger displayed continuously great de- votion to his duty to the wounded. No one could have shown more coolness and courage under fire than he, and no one ever deserved the V. C. more thoroughly than he did.” GERMANS SHOOT FIRE FROM A NEW DEVICE LONDON.

"' Great Britain's casualties, announc- ed by Premier Asquith in Parliament amount to a third of a million. includ- ing killed, wounded, and missing. Neither Germany, France not Russia makes any comprehensive statement of the kind, but it is obvious that the losses of all three are proportionately much heavier than England’s. Estimates published in the English papers derived from indications given in the Prussian official lists of cas- ualties carry the German losses to a total of 3,500,000. This figure largely exceeds the computations made by the German authorities, but even the lat- ter, wlio may be assumed to desire to put the best aspect possible on the war's cost in the matter of life and limb, admit that Germany up to the end of June had 482,000 men killed and and 852,000 wounded. in regard to prisoners the Germans admitted a loss of 2330,000 up to the end of last month, altogether a grand total of 1,567,000 killed, wounded, and missing. The German claims as to the number of the enemy disposed of are surpris- liigly high. Mr. Asi|uith's figure of 330.000 up to a late date in July was exceeded, according to German calcu- lations, before the end of June, at which period, according to Teutonic coinputiitioiis, Great Britain had lost 116,000 killed, 229,000 wounded, and 83,000 prisoners, a total of 428,000.
