ARE ORGANJIZHD TO OVE WEARY CONFINEMEN | They Have Sports and Marches -- | They Have Made a Flower and | Vegetable Garden In the Centre | Of the Court Yard. | Baron Polanz is cope of the Ger- man prisoners confined at Fort Hep-| ry and he is doiag a good work in| organizing the prisoners so that the confinement will not- bring on in-| jqrious . effects. He dis the moving | spirit in the athletic work at the fof. A short time ago a march in | "heavy marching order" was held | in the court. Each man was dress- ed his ordinary suit' but carried | thirty pounds of baggage including his blankets and four or five bricks on his back. Theré were twelve men at the .beginning of the march and eight finished the 31 1-2 Kkilo- nietres. A gymnastic exhibition was given on Sunday last with the following results: Highest jump, 1 metre, 58 furthest jump, 5 t- res, 60 centimetres; hammer ing (twenty-five pounds), 8 usual stunts on the horizontal parallel bars. At the fort there is a singing so- ciety of forty voices and there is al- 80 an orchestra of fifteen pieces. In the athletic work the men are divided into companies which com- pete against each other. In the singing society the musicians are chosen from all the. prisoners. To improve the long hours of con- finement, a garden has been made in the centre of the court and any- one wlio has visited thé fort will realize the strenuous time the pris- oners had in. finding enough ear for the purpose. In the garden. are flowers and vegetables. There is al- 80 a stone grotto which is a decided addition to the appearance of the court-yard. There are now 245 Germans, 35 Austrians and 1 Turk in Fort Henry. There are about 1,000 Germans, 4,- 000 Austrians and 130 Turks prison- ers-of-war in Canada at the present time, the camps being at Nanaimo and Vernon, B.C. Brandon, Leth- bridge, Amherst, Halifax, Hearst, Ont., Spirit Lake, Que., and Peta- wawa. There are about 1,000 Aus- trians at Spirit Lake, 600 at Peta- wawa and 800 at Hearst. -------- ASKS ALL APPLICANTS ---- { For Work Why They Do Not Join the Militia. Lieut.-Col. George Hunter, immi- gration agent, is true to his old in- stincts as' a soldier, and every man who comes inte his office for work on a. farm is questioned as to why he does not join the militia. On Wed. nesday morning, a well-built man, dressed in rather shabby clothes, came into the colonel's office, The conversation was started by Col. Hunter, who said: "What do you want? Work?" ; 'The answer was In the affirmative, 'and the 'mext question was: "Have You any money?" which brought out 4 negative answer. "You ought to be ashamed of your- self. "You are an able-bodied man; why don't you eniist?" When the fellow explained that he had tried three times to enlist, but has been rejected as his heart was weak, the colonel passed the remark that his heart was in the right place anyway. There are only a few men applying to. Col. Hunter for positions, and these are instantly engaged. The farmers cannot be supplied with all the help that is required. wAISE MONEY FOR SAND BAGS For the Candian Soldiers Fighting At the Front, On Tuesday afternoon La Salle Chapter, Daughters of the Empire, held a bridge and tea at the Yacht Club building to raise funds to buy sand bags to be used by the Canadian soldiers at the front.
