SHEPHERD. New York, Reb. 19.—Those of you who followed the things I wrote for pressed with the horror of slaughter | But there are worse things in war , than slaugnter.. In the current issue | of Every Week 7 nave told what those | things are; anda summarized quota- | tion from that story may interest you: “Isn't the slaughter terrible?” Everybody who returns to the is asked this question, trite as it} My answer must always be: | “Dying or killing are not the most | terrible things that war brings to a man, woman or child. In Europe you see worse things than dying or kill-{ ing. Worse things happen to Euro- pled.” The - first dead men I saw in the war, back in those early and old-time been uselessly ‘murdered, and the sight left a ‘baleful impression on my mind, for a time. To my surprise, however, I soon ‘beheld such sights without emotion. But there was one sight—one manifestation of the hor- rors of war—that I could not accus- tom myself to view without a mental shudder, This was the sight of vast bodies of men marching or camping. Like Animals, There they were, men of family, of business, of ideals, of religion, all brought down to the same level—all alike, Like barrels whose hoops have ‘been removed, these men, individu- ally, in their lives, and in their char- acters have fallen apart since the binding support of their home envir- onment has been taken away from round about them. The impression that they were like animals, jlike herd- ed, unthinking beasts, was so. strong | upon me that at night-in my sleep, in-; stead of seeing dead and mangled bodies, I saw in my dreams vast bod: ies of soldiers passing before me,’ each man wearing the head of some! beast instead of his own. They were; not brutal, leonine men—animals 1! saw; only patient, dumb, obedient, | long-suffering, kindly ones, such as; cattle, deer, horses and dogs. Worse Than Death. To be turned into such a man is worse than death, and among think-! ing men in the six armies that I saw! at close range I often found soldiers and officers who realized what sort of beings they had become. There are penalties just short of death for men in the various armies who sicken of being unthinking men—animals and try to find a way out of their plight by suicide—who stick their heads; above the trenches or who wound themselves with their own rifles. The moral and mental disintegra- tion that is caused by the surround-/ ings of military service in individual | cases is shocking. This applies to all armies that I have seen. “That fellow would be better dead,” said a friend of mine. as an English- walked away from us after a chance meeting in the Strand. “Everything that was good in him is dead al- ready.” Star of Fleet Street. Only a year before, this man had been a star of Fleet Street. He wrote with a sympathy and an understand: ing of human nature that made his work stand out. But as we saw him, after a year in the army as an un- commissioned officer, the grime of war was on his soul as well as on his languages in five different armies. “I'm rotting, and I can't help it.” ° ‘Not all the bad things of war hap- pen to human bodies. MINNESOTA NOT OFFERING BOUNTIES FOR BABIES St. Paul, Minn., Feb. 19.—Minnesota is not offering any bounty for baby boys, just now, Such was the pur- Port of a reply to an inquiry sent to- day by State Auditor Preus, to John Helman of Lumber, in Itasca county. John says he has three bouncing boys, and that he heard ine state paid $100 per head hounty for baby boys. Z NOTICE. “I will not’be responsible for any debts contracted by my wife, Rose Reinhart.
