Continued. | 'Turkey was handsomely rgpresent- | ed at the Stadvogtei during ia couple of ,years; the Turk prisoners were | one Rasehid and the other Tager. Raschid was a young 'man, about | thirty-five years of age. He was lodged in a cell on the floor above ours and there kept in solitary con-| finement. Hé was arrested while | passing through Germany, because | he, too, openly manifested his sym- | pathies for France. Like Tager | his compatriot, he had received a| French education, and had lived fh | Paris for several years. This poor | Raschid, who was locked up all day ! long, was not allowed to read or} smoke, but several among us when | apprised of his hard lot succeeded | from time to time in providing him | with some French books, cigarettes, | and also with a little food. Profes- sor. Henrl Marteau, the celebrated French violinist, was particularly moved by the misfortunes of Raschid He was allowed te play the instru- | © meng-in his cell, which during the lat- ter part of his captivity was situated | on the side of the triangle facing the | cell in which Raschid was confined. And there he would draw from his violin marvellous strains that would send a ray of comfort to the poor Turk's soul. One night I was called to Ras- chid's cell. He was yery ill. And while wg talked together I:obtained & great deal of information from' him. The conversation, being in. French, was not understood by the latfendant pon-eommissioned officer.s, i {Raschid" believed at that time that 'he had been entirely forgotten by the military. authpritiesc+ He wag con- 'Anéd for over: five. months before hearing one $ingle reason why he was so barbarously treated Then upwards of five months after his ar- rest, he was taken té the office of Jen. Von Kessel, high commanding officer in the Steps of Brandenburg. Rasghid, with whom I talked on the day following this interview, related the incidents of his conversation with the great general. Von Kes- sel informed him that he would soon be liberated; that he would tra- vel hy express train through the Bal- kans on his way to Constantinople.

For my part; 1 never knew any other reason than that he had expressed pro-French senti- ments. One day he was informed that he was to leave the jail for a French officers' internment camp. His de- parture was fixed for December 7th, 1915. During his short (?) sojourn among us Tager won the esteem of the prisoners of British nationality.

He entreated me not to reveal this to anyone Well, the British prisoners met to- gether in a cell and decided to offer him a luncheon at the jail on'the day of his departure. It was a formid- able enterprise. On the day fixed, a table of fifteen } plates was (laid in my cell. The plates, I need hardly remark, had to be set very close one to the other! At one o'clock, th¥ee of us went as a delegation to bring Tager, who did not understand what the whole thing meant Before luncheon, I: was the only I told my British | comrades that it was my intention to 'reveal' to them, when the toasts were proposed, that our guest, Ta- {ger, was a Grand Rabbi of Turkes- tan, and although this title meant i nothing to me or to them, I urged that they should display great en- thusiasm at my disclosure and give Tager an ovation. Luncheon was about to end, when I got wp tg propose the health of Ta- er. In. concluding my speech, I duly fiformed my friends that 1 was about to Create a sensation amongst them.

On this statement, evary one stood and united in a loull chorus of " Then, according to time- honored custom, one of the party led the popular refrain, "For he's a jolly good fellow." We had scarcely got through the first part of the song when Hufmeyer ,a non-commissioned officer, burst into my cell and called on us to stop. He was too late, how- ever. We had then given full vent to our_enthusiastm for Mr. Tager. up "bravos be awed RE LiébKiecht was LT Ofily one ks Say gpon himself the wrath of mry authorities in 1915, ng 1917.

He was defeated, but his subsequent candidature had a hap- pier sequel in his election, for an-' other constituency, to the Prussian Diet. He was returned by a large majorify, and at the time of writing is a member of the Prussian Parlia- ment. (To be continued.)
