In cases where the impairment is only slight the officer may receive a gratuity up to $2,500 in liew of a pension. | For officers and their dependents there are different scales, and one new feature is that the widows â€" of Lieutenants and Subâ€"Lieutenants will get the rates hitherto allotted to the widows of Captains. The rates vary from $250 to $500 per annum, with rates for children ranging from $80 1_ a++a v> as â€" The low flat rate provides for a widow without children from 2.50 to $3 a week at the age of 35 and raâ€" ther I*ss than $4 at 45. There are increased allowances for widows with children ranging up to a total of $5.40 for a widow with four children and more if the mother is over 35. For motherless children the allowâ€" ance is $1.20 a week. A man who is totally disabled will receive $6 a week, with more than 50 cents for each child, and a man partly disâ€" abled such an amount as with the wages which he may be deemed capâ€" able of earning will amount to $6 a week.

Then he came home to Gerâ€" bervillers on pehr:ni:l:::n, and after everything else had n talked over, this story of the baker came to the front, The French soldiee went to this story of the baker came to the front, The French soldier went to Sister Julie with his new evidence, and that capable womanâ€"she is "We burned the baker in his upper oven," said he. "He shrieked as we thrust him in." They talked off and on for three days. The German seemed to have something on his mind. He would lead up to the subject and then shy away from it. > At last he bolted it. He could resist no more. The senâ€" tence came from him as though he could not close his teeth on it. "You would be right," said the Gerâ€" man soldier. "We did awful things there. I did none of them. I kept my hands clean. But the others did them. It was an order." "If my officer would let me, I would slip my bayonet through your middle," said the French soldier, gritâ€" ting his teeth. The French soldiee asked some questions. The German said that he and others of the prisoners had been present at the burning of Gerberâ€" villers. "Your regiment," said he, "was raised around Gerbervillers?" _ Last week on the Somme the French army took many thousand prisoners. This Gerbervillers man was one of those who was set to guard them, with others of the Gerâ€" bervillers company. Germans Confessed. One of the Germans examined his regimental insignia with interest. The German looked at it and turned away, and came back and looked at it and turned, and finally came back again. "I know all about the baker," was the _ soldier‘s _ surprising answer. "They burned him in his upper oven. He screamed as they thrust him in." "And they say," his townspeople wound up their narrative of â€"sack and flames, "that the Germans burnâ€" ed the baker alive." years he had only known that his home town had been stamped out of existence. The story would not die. It had an amazing vitality. Of all the storâ€" ies of murder in Gerbervillers this one seemed the most enduring and the most fragile. It rested upon not an atom of proof, but every one beâ€" lieved it except hardâ€"headed Sister Julie and her six nuns, who devoutly believe what Sister Julie believes and no more. This week a soldier whose home is at Cerbervillers came back "Who heard the story first?" she asked. "Give me some proof there is truth in this story before we go digâ€" ging in a pile of dust ruins. There are more important things to do. Who is to feed my old people and my little ones while you please yourâ€" self by idly digging about in dusty ruing ?" "Let us search his ovens," the vilâ€" lagers have asked Sister Julie, that nun who has more courage than an army corps, and who drew her six trembling sister nuns in line behind her to oppose a German army, and who opposed it successfully. Nothing appeals more quickly to the Germans than that sort of courage. But Sisâ€" ter Julie poohâ€"poohed the idea. No one could be found who had been told this grisly thing by a Gerâ€" man. But the tale was there. It would not be forgotten. ‘| _ Two years ago the Germans burned ° Gerbervillers. The world knows the !, story. Sixty chausseurs with a pair ‘ / of machine guns held up a Germani + army at the crossing of the little C river that runs through this rural' ‘| village. The German artillery had; y ! not come up, by which the sixty . ‘ might have been blown away. The : river was in flood and could not be _ forded.

The Germans| | also led fifteen old men out into a | pasture field and blinded their eyes | and shot them down in groups of | five. Many other things were done,i for the policy of terrorization was ‘ being tried out. The Germans still | believed that war could be made â€" so t terrible that France would quit fight-J ingâ€"being a fresh proof of the Ger-" man inability to understand the psyâ€" | | chology of another people.

The observers in the basket of the balloon are in telephonic communicaâ€" tion with the "station‘" below, which in turn is in telephonic touch with the artillery.
