ONE SOLDIER’S TALE. Seven Days and Six Nights in Trenches, Two Days With- out Food. By William G. Sheperd. SENLIB, France, Oct. ¢ (By mai! United Prees).—One horror of war the life that is wasted for lack medical attention. There are plenty of ambulances and doctors, but these cannot reach wounded men who are lying in the firing sone, and suffering men must wait as best they oan, without water or attention, until the battle has passed on. One young English lieutenant who had lain on the battlefield for two days with a slight wound in his leg was found with the Ilmb distended with gas. He was taken to a hospital and the leg was cut off, but he died within two days from the poison which had entered his blood. Another young English officer had the upper Joint of his right middie finger shot away. Two days later he reached Paris and went into a hospital, where he died within a few days of tetanus. The French army officials try to force soldiers to carry small vials of antiseptic with which they might wash a amall wound; but the men throw them away as soon as they get tired and want to lessen the weight of thelr packs A tired, dirty French soldier stag- gered into the Uttle cafe in the town of Villers Cotteret.

POLICE GUARD SCHOOL IMPERILLED BY FIREBUG Three Blazes Discovered in Insti- tution at Rivington and Lewis Streets in Week. Fire Marshal Prial and Detective Stein of Police Headquarters are keep- ing close watch over Public School No. 88, Rivington and Lewis streets, where three fires occurred on two days of last week. Each of the three was un- doubtedly of incendiary origin. John Black, whe janitor, discovered the Gret fire just after the 2,000 beys and girls who attend the primary classes had left the general assembly room ,on the fourth floor at 9.20 o'clock, Tuesday morning. Some rags stored in the janitor’s closet outside the assembly room were afire. After the children had left the school at 12,15 Black found another blaze ia @ waste paper basket on the fourth Roor ‘yhureda; (a at about the same he found the basket on fire again by urning so briskly that the amoke had been seen in the street and some one had called the fire engines.
