Just before the train pulled out, Colonel T. D. R. Hemming, Camp Comman- der, and Major G. L. Starr, Camp Chaplain, walked down to the line and shaking hands and person- ally bidding good-bye to each man. As the men took their places in the car the pipe and trumpet bands of the regiment played patriotic music and as the train left the station a hearty cheer was sent up from the regiment, which was answered by another from the travellers. { "weg GLAD HE DID IT.

New York, June 9.--Four German sul ¢ in the Firth '6f Tay; on the east coast of Scotland, in a recent raid, according to officials of the liner Cameronia the jawbone record was the big saucepan which it is credibly sai¢ a lusty Turk brand- ished with great effect at the battle of Widdin. Since: Samson's 'use of has never been a stranger weapon. In of the flerce actions in the Peninsular war ammunition ran short and many shifts were resorted to in order to make up for the lack of bullets. The chief means were buttons. There were not many left on the soldiers' uniforms when the fight was over. To-day, of course, a soldier could not do this, for all the rifies are breechloaders. But in those days it was different. Thus in this very same battle it is reported that. a soldier took a razor from his Laver sack, rammed it down, and fired it after the flying French cavalry. Evidently that cavalry had a close shave. Boasts of Twenty-Six Wounds. There is a friendly rivalry among the wounded in the Berlin hospitals for the distinction of bhaving the worst shot up man in the. war. One who claims twenty-six wounds holds the present record, but Horst Pfeif- fer is envied for his. remarkaple combination of peril and luck, Near Dixmude be received an order which he was to take on his bieyele .to the firing lime. He had to pass on his way a road that was exposed to a hot maehine gum fire from the enemy. He 'was hit eight times and dropped off into a ditch at the side of the road, but succeed- ed nevertheless in handing his mes- sage to another soldier, who carried it to its destination. One bullet had grazed his skull, amother passed through the upper jaw, one through the chin, one through the bone of the right arm, and one struck his left wrist. Two others struck his helmet and his shoes. 1lis comrades finally succeeded in rescuing him from his dangerous position and sent him to Berlin, where he has been awarded an iron cross. Our Useless Buttons, Masculine dress still reflects the in- fluence of the military uniform. Many of our useless buitons may be blamed on military ancestors. It is related that Frederick William, King of Prussia, was excessively annoyed be- cause his soldiers persisted in wiping their noses on their coat sleeve, even when on dress parade. So he ordered the military tailors to sew buttons on the coat sleeves as a means of dis- couraging this: habit. 'The buttons are still with us. Have you ever won- dered as to the why of the buttons that are fastened in the middle of the back of the Prince Albert coat that Deacon Smith wears on Sundays, or the long-tailed éutaway that Lawyer Jones dons when he tries a big case? Originally these buttons were intend ed to keep a sword belt from sagging. : § gs : i F | g if g £21 of an ass there surely | "uswered (ie president's preliminary | Gananoque '| June 5--The steam barge Isahells | H. finished unloading rd cargo of | screenings | Oswego. | {1 The ©.

German Governess Arrested as Spy While Seeking Lover. | Paris, June 9.--The story of a German woman's love for a British officer, and how she sacrificed liberty in order to see him, has been reveal- ed before a court-martial here. Fraulein Susan Pommerich, aged thirty-six, a governess, born at Dres- den, appéared to answer a charge of being in the possession of false iden. tification papers. The judges found her guilty on one count only, and sentenced her to four months' impris. | onment, the exact period she has! already been detained, but she must leave France and not return for ten years. Fraulein Pommerich, a frail, pret- ty little woman, entered the dock im | charge of two municipal guards, She questions in a low voice, speaking French with an English accent. When told to sit down she put her handker- chief to her eyes and wept softly. It appeared that she had been BOV- | erness in a family at Mitchelstown, | Ireland, in 1906, and that she then | made the acquaintance of a captain | in the British army. The couple | Were very much in love with each other, and would have married but for the woman's nationality. They parted, and Miss Pommerich came to Paris, became governess with a German family, and then joined a French. family, After the outbreak of war Miss Pommerich asked for a week's holi- days, saying she was going to Lon- don, but instead of doing so she went to Havre, and then to Rouen, in search of her old sweetheart, Unsuccessful in her quest, she went to Switzerland, and in the meantime her empldyers received an anony- mous telegram accusing her of es- pionage. The police were inform- ed, and she was arrested. The principal evidence against her was a letter to the prisoner from a German officer, written since the be- ginning of the war, asking her to go to Fribourg, and give further infor- mation concerning '"B. of B.;' all expenses would be paid, said the German, who gave details of how the reply was to be sent to disarm suspi- cion. There was a dramatic scene in court when she told her story about the British officer. "I loved him," she said simply; "I love him now; iI shall always love him. Itis as an Englishw. n 1 look upon England as my country. 1 hate Germany." As she said this fie struck the rail with her clenched st. "l went to Rougn and Havre to try to find Captain --------, 1 could not bear the thought that he might be killed at the war and I would never gee him again. "I would rather be a spy for France in Germany than be a German spy in France. Maitre Phillipe addressed the court for the defence. Taking the evidence as one would take a bundle of sticks, he broke it piece by piece. At the beginning of the trial the erowd in the court was swayed by the report read by the prosecuting counsel, and their voices rose like the hissing of an angry sea. After Maitre Phillipe had spoken verdict mo one doubted what that would be. It was the lightest one possible, 'Miss Pommerich has been removed to a concentration camp, but there is Jo more question of punishment for er. COLLEGE MEN GIVE WAVES.
