P. SYSTEM IS FAR REACHING Eyes of French People Suddenly Opened to Extent of the Organiza- tion and Its Studied and Elaborate Character. London.—Dr. Arthur Lynch, M. P., writing under a Paris date to the Daily Chronicle on German spies in France, says: “In Marcel Prevost’s Les Anges Gar- diens’ (The Guardian Angels, other- wise governesses) he depicts an Eng- lish governess who is fond of drink, an Italian whose beauty wins the af- fections of the son and heir, and a Ger- man, Meg by name—a jolly and attrac- tive young woman, unembarrassed by moral scruples, but capable and shrewd. Meg is a spy, and her spying is the more dangerous for the fact that she is the ‘guardian angel’ of the daughter of the French war minister. “This story, written with a certain grace of style, set all France talking, and many a bourgeois family scrutin- ized with horror their stockish, stupid- looking but hardworking Westphalian maid, who knew little outside the small household and who, moreover, had conceived a real affection for the children, “I confesseI was inclined to laugh at the spy scare, but some time before the war I used to meet on the stair- case of a modest and quiet little pri- vate hotel the dame who stood for the original of Meg. She had an apart- ment adjoining mine. There was noth- ing about her appearance or her man- ners to attract attention. Meg had, in good German style, grown imposing though still attractive in the German fashion, “One evening, on returning to my rooms, I saw Meg’s lady companion, a dragon looking person, camped on a chair on the landing near Meg’s door, and presently three middle-aged gen- tlemen left Meg’s rooms. Meg knew that the war was coming, and no doubt serious business was on hand that night. Abused by German Husband. “Parisians have become very suspi- cious of late, but the surprise w®s gen- eral nevertheless when they discov- ered that their exotic favorite, Mata Hari, the Hindoo dancer, was a Ger- man spy. This lady with the dusky skin and flexible wrists and languor- ous graces of Hastern dancing women turned out to be a formidable person- age. At the age of seventeen she mar- ried a German who had obtained Dutch nationality in order to mask his spying work. The marriage was rather in the nature of a formal business transaction, but this did not prevent the one-time German officer from bru- tally ill-treating his young wife. “Nevertheless she entered into the spy system with zest, became duly registered and paid, amused and de- lighted Paris for some years with her audacious performances, became ac- quainted with various highly placed officials and politicians and’ found means, it is said, to make known to the Germans some of the most im- portant French plans in the _ first months of the war. “Certainly it is absurd to find a spy in every German kitchen maid or hall porter or barber’s apprentice, but eyes have been opened to the extent of the organization, its studied and elaborate character and the cleverness of the German spy system. “Here in Paris is a type very dif: ferent from Meg, but one who em- ploys the Megs as his agents—the count of W——, ‘Old Adolph,’ as he was familiarly called, half in affection and half in contempt. Adolph was, not so many years ago, a dashing offi- cer of the Guards, a great rider, a beau, a lady killer. Certain histories in this latter direction cut off his ca- reer as a Guardsman and he came to Paris. Old Adolph had then nothing of the beau cavalier of old; he seemed good natured, but stupid; he did not look as if he could mount a horse, for he moved all in a block, like a piece of wood, Had Hired Chateau. “Old Adolph incidentally had hired a chateau which commanded a great range of country and which possessed a real value for war purposes. To this chateau he made several addi- tions and improvements, which were thought to be a fad of dear, stupid old Adolph; they could be used as ex- cellent gun emplacements. It is still @ moot point in the circles that old Adolph frequented whether he really ance. But it is not remote from this question to remark that at one point the disastrous flight of the Germans from the Marne was brought to an end by the fact that they arrived at po- sitions which had been carefully noted and prepared by Germans before the war. “I have lifted the veil here and there upon the types; the framework of the system is no less edifying to study. For the past two generations the Ger- mans have been extending and perfect- ing their spy system; it has now be- come one of the important functions of state. A spy is not taken at hap- hazard and asked impromptu to under- take difficult and hazardous work.” —soneerenenes ee cece a Range Should A Monarch -OUR-- If Its Farm Machiners You Want, We Have It.
