PAGE 2 HUNS STILL LOVE BISMARCK, SAYS CAPTAIN MURPHY Local Soldier, With Nineteen Months in Europe, Has In- teresting Experiences WILL ENTER NEW GUARD Bismarck is still the pride of the Geormans, ‘according to Capt. C. J. Murphy, recently discharged from the service after spending almost exact- ly two years in the army, nineteen months of which+ were spent in France and eGrmany. But the Bismarck Capt: refers to was the Iron C the man who is pointed out a real cause of the late heated and the masters of the ed “World Conqu known as the alli tended on i arck our own fair city—as the Germans as a whole do not know a great deal about the queen city of the Dakotas. Had Some Experience. Captain Murphy has tremely pleasant, thrilling, interes ing and educational experience. That is, parts of it were all that. But oth- er portions were not so very pleasant, thrilling, interesting, or educational, especially the many pursuits of Sir Cootie and his tribes, the canned wil- lie, gas attacks at all hours of the day and night and the super friendly mud of La Belle France, which stuck in spite of the mean words said against it. It was on July 15, 1917, that Cap- tain Murphy, in common with other members of the North Dakota na- tional guard was requested to join the federal army and after being siation- d at home until Octoder, 1917, he shipped to Camp Greene for ning with his men. From that time on, Captain Murphy's life was one darn transfer after another. November 1917 found Captain Mur- phy et Camp Mills, New York, await- ing a steamer to transport him to France. He was at the head of the ibilleting party of the 41st division which was to arrange quarters for the entire division upon its arrival in France. He picked out Lacourtine, France, as a nice place for the di- vision to while away its time train- ing 24 hours a day until it was ready to enter the front lines. Becomes Provost Marshal. But the ¢: thick and fast for the Americans at that time ‘hat the personnel of the division wes used as replacements and scattered throughout practically every organization in the American expeditionary force, Captain ‘Murphy found himself with the job of pro- vost marshal of the Sixth army corps, at responsibility and dan- Ger. service in the Toul sec- tor and in the Argonne while with this organization. He was originally adjutant of the 116th Train headquar- ters of the ‘41st division. When the armistice was signed, Captain Murphy, still acting as pro- vost marshal, went into Luxemberg and during tho las! month he was abroad, he was stationed in Germany having charge of' the military police in various places. Through Camp Agony. He returned to this country in June, 1919, efter passing through ‘St. Aignon, known through the A. FE. F. as Camp Agony because practical- ly all of the men out of hospitals in France were passed through this camp for reclassification before ‘be- ing returned to America as casuals. Captain Murphy, upon his return to the United States, was sent to Camp Dix, N, J., and instead of receiving any honors for his services, was sent to the hospital for an operation. He is fully recovered now, however, This is the first time Captain Murphy has ‘been home since October, 1917. The national guard, just as soon as it is reorganized, will again find Cap- tain Murphy on the job, he says. na {MARKETS | es SO. ST.

Roberts went to Fort Lin- coln yesterday to make the prelimin- ary arrangements for the landing .of the three groups of flying machines which are due here next month. Ev- erything was found to be ideal for landing and housing of the personnel of the acroplanes and proper markers will be placed for the guidance of the aviators. Captain A. A. Jones will be asked to aid the committee in policing the grounds so that no accidents will oc- cur by spectators crowding.on the field when the ships are landing or leaving.

She speaks English as easily as she does French and five or six other languages. At present she is studying American methods of work for wo- men with a view to inaugurating them in her own country. It is not strange that she shou!d be working with Americans © for | her mother is an American. However, the Countess never has been to America. She y s travelling from. Switzer- land to Paris back in the. early war days, when an American welfare worker who happened to be on the train, in telling her of the work of American women in France, described what the Y. W. C. A. was doing. He described the work so vividly that the Countess decided to vi it the Paris headquarters, and the welfare worker gave her a letter to the director of.the French work, Miss Henrictta Roelofs, whom he knew, The Countess took her place at once in the ranks of the untitled american workers.

One of her close friends, a leading woman of Belgium, was -arrested and condemned to a criminal prison in Germany for con- ducting a secret mail service whereby Belgian mothers and wives received letters from their. men at the front. This woman was the mother of four young children. - Her ‘husband was tried at the same time for refusing to allow his factory to: make barbed-wire for the German Army, and he was sent to another prison, in Germany. They asked the. Countess to come and live in their home and be a mother to their children for the indefinite sepa- ration time of their prison sentences. Countess d’Alviella gave up. every- thing and went.to them. She was with the children when they stood ‘on the door step.of their own homie and waved both their: parents’ good-bye, as they were: taken “off to Germany under German. guards, | Ten months later the mother was released through an exchange of prisoners but she was not allowed to return to Belgium.
