GEN. SCHONBURG ATTENDS SERVICE AMID SHELLS. ‘The priest is b-->, waiting. He isa short man with .. beard, kindly-eyed and ruddy faced—a pilot of men who at any moment may take the short, quick journey into eternity. Big boots and a heavy overcoat appear under his white and gold vestments. He re- mains bareheaded and the raw wind moves the hair on his face and head. A soldier comes along near the brow of the hill, stringin, wire on the ground behind him. He lays a emall box and a telephone receiver on | wi! the ground near the altar. Gen. Behonburg, the brigade commander, is coming to church this mornin and he must be in touch with head. quarters every moment, More lines of men pass through the| y, valley and climb the bill. They range themselves behind the first comers. From another part of the slope, a huge, tall man, accompanied by neatly Greased officers, appears and shakes hands with the priest. The big man is Gen. Schonburg. By this time over a thousand men are grouped midhill, a hundred feet below the altar. They are given “At ease!" and stand as much #0 as pos- sible with Afty pounds of pack on each back and a cold, raw wind going. The priest turns to his lean-to, faces the rude altar and kneels.

Then the priest talks to the soldiers. His text is, “Letters From Home,” He calls the soldiers, “My war compan. jons.” He says: “I know how much it means to all of you to get a letter from home. It is the letter from home that encourages us most. But I have for you all, this morning, @ letter from home—from Heaven, our last and best | the g: home.

Lawson gave to the press the text of the alleged telegram, which, he said was sent on April 30, after the battle | of Ludlow, the worst of the mine riots, to Jesse F. Welborn and L. M. Bowers of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company. Lawson asserts the mes- sage proves the miners’ contention that Rockefeller was the actual direct- orado strike.
