LIES FOR MORE THAN FOUR HRS Fugitive Fighters Cut Off From Retreat in Belgium in Early Stages of War Conduct Guerrilla Warfare Against Foe, Inflicting Heavy Losses and Damage and Success fully Elude Every Attempt to Capture Them. Paris.—In all Its wealth of heroic actions the present war contains no more surprising episode than that which has just been brought to light. Tho facts are ns follows; For inoro than four months, 1 ever since August 23. an organized com pany of 160 French soldiers have been living in the Belgian provinces of Luxemburg and Namur, and although surrounded entirely by the German forces occupying Belgium, they have constantly escaped capture. For al most four months they lidve conducted a guerrilla warfare against their foes, Inflicting heavier losses and more dam age than could he douo by an entire regiment ill the open, and every at tempt of tho Germans to dlslodgo thorn from the mountain forests where they have found refuge has failed. The story Is vouched, for by au un impeachable authority who lias per sonally seen and interviewed tho commander of this fugitive force and soveral of his men. These 160 men are all that Is left of tho French troopB who vainly attempt ed In a two-day battlo to resist the Gorman advance between the Rivers Llesso and Semols on August 22-23. The order for general retreat sent out by the allied forces on Sunday, August 23, reached them too late. Their only way of retreat, through MezlereB, hav ing been cut off, and realizing that tlioy were surrounded, they decided to seek refuge In the thick forests with which this region ls-covered mid to await there the return of tho French forces, which In their minds then was a matter only of days. The informant who brings this story to Paris makes no secret of the hiding place of these soldiers, which, he says, Is between the towns of Salnt-Hubert and Glvet, in the Belgian section of the Ardennes mountains. Their pres ence there Is known to all .the Inhab itants of the surrounding villages and to the Germans as well. Villagers Help Frenchmen. Having decided to remain within the enemy’s lines, tho men were organized by the few ofllcers who had survived the battlo and after a careful survey of the country a place of concealment was selected from which It would bo posslblo to do tho most harm to the enemy with the least danger of detec tion. Scouting parties were sent to the nearby villages, who enlisted tho aid of tho Inhabitants, all of whom have long ago fled the country and are uow beyond the reach of German re prisals. A good supply of ammunition was tho most urgent need of the sol diers and women and children volun teered to make a search of the Llesse- Semols buttlcfleld and to empty the cartridge belts of the dead French troops still unburled. A supply of 17,- 000 Lebcl cartridges was gathered In this manner and carefully concealed In the forest. In exchange for the food and cloth ing which were furnished by the vil lagers the commanding officer gave regular army requisition papers which will be redeemed when the war is over and the Belgian peasants were only too glad to save their property from the Germans In this manner, knowing that they will obtain payment for it from tho French government at a later date. But this was not the soldiers’ only means of obtaining supplies. Believ ing the surrounding country cleared of hostile troops the Germans continued to send provision trains through with only a small guard to protect them and one by one tliCBe trains were bold up and their escorts killed by ttye Frenchmen. These attacks occurred at points so far apart that the Ger mans were unable to discover the ex act location or tho hostile force anil although strong bodies of troops have been sent against it every search has failed. Cavalry and Infantry troops have ventured as far Into the,forests as they have dared, but so thorough a knowledge of the ground have the fugitives acquired that they have been able to conceal themselves successful ly every time. During the first few weeks of their forest life tho soldiers might have suc ceeded In getting over the border had they accepted the offers of tho inhab itants to furnish clothing with which they could disguise themselves as peasants nnd pass through* tho Ger man lines us refugees. These offers, however, werp refused. German Commander Killed. On ona^occaslon in tho village of Houyet, oil* tlio Llesse, 20 kilometers, from Dlnnnt, the fugitive soldiers had a narrow escape. A German' force, which tho French believed to be small, had occupied the royal chateau l’Ar- denne and was making merry with the contents of u well-filled larder and wine collars of the place, whlie tho few re maining inhabitants In the village wore starving. Tho coinihander of the French soldiers decided to put an end to this condition of affairs and under took personally to trap anil capture the German commander. The sur prise of the latter can well be Imag ined when during a morning stroll ho came suddenly face to face with a French officer in full uniform who or dered him to bold up his hands. He drew his revolver Instead, but the Frenchman was quicker and shot him dead. The report was beard by the sentry at the chateau and brought a strong force of Germans on the run. The French soldiers were walling near by to assist tlielr rhlef, but one glance was enough to see that they were greatly outnumbered and all lied back to tlie woods, not, one being even wounded. A similar Incident bad occurred only a few days before at Beauratng, ten miles away, when a German captain had been killed, and the military au thorities thereupon decided to make a thorough search of tho forest to round up the French troops. More tliun one thousand men took part In the search, but not a Frenchman wbb found. Meanwhile the attacks have con tinued and the Germans in the regions of Houyet, Gedulne, Salnt-Hubert, Beauralng and Glvet aro,' terrorized. No officer dares venture out alone, ho stranger Is allowed to pass. M. Speyer, tho Belgian senator, who has taken charge of the feeding of the remain ing inhabitants of these regions, has been subjected to d close watch-dur ing all ills visits, and he Is practically the only one tolerated In these towns. The authority for* this story saw the French commander only two weeks ago and succeeded In getting through the German lines and back to Paris. At that time the German military au thorities lmd posted throughout the two Belgian provinces of Luxemburg and Namur the following announce ment addressed to the fugitive sol diers: “French soldiers: “We know where you aro and have full information regarding your strength. In your own Interest we ad vise you to surrender and promise that your lives will be safe. If you re fuse every one of you will be shot.” On the following morning tho Ger mans were amazed to find written in a bold baud across several of the post ers tha following line: "If you know where we aro why don’t you come and get us?” And underneath appeared the signa ture ol’ tho French commanding offi cer, with his full name and rank and the number of his regiment. LEARN TO DISCOUNT DANGER British Medical Officer Studies the Psychology of Courage Among the Soldiers. , London.—A medical officer who has been making a study of tho "psychol ogy of courage" at the British front, says that most men confess to a feel ing of fear which only rtea'ra off after, several days In the trenches. “But once this physical Instinct of terror Is conquered, there comes,” says the medical ninn, “a second courage, which, while not despising danger, is able to discount It. Under Are these men find u self hitherto unsuspected, au elusive quality which for want of a bettor title Is called manhood.” “Tho soldier learns first to control, then to measure, his fear,” ho says. "Ho learns to discount possibilities just ns the ordinary railroad traveler does. And tho work in hand generally engages and holds more and more of hlB attention. Then comes a time when he wants to go back to tho fir ing line, not because It Is pleasant there, but because staying away is just Impossible. “While the man who has not yet been under fire cannot safely co.unt upon experiencing this or that particular feeling when Ills hour comes—this depending upon tempera ment and circumstances—he can. I believe, count upon soon achieving the second courage, which is tho price less possession of the veteran. Un der Are ho may lose evpry precon ceived notion he ever cherished or shunned, but It is highly probable that he will find himself.” SAVED FOR PRINCE’S SAKE Germans Spare Maubeugc, France, Be cause of Treatment Given the Kaiser's Dying Nephew, Boulogne, France.—Because a young French Red Cross nurse took interest In an olghtcen-year-old Gorman lieu tenant, who was brought unconscious into the liospltul at Mmibcuge, mid died three? days later, tho city of Mau- beuge haB been favored by Its German conquerors, mid Is enjoying a greater degree of freedom than any of the other French border towns In German territory. The wounded German was the prince of Saxc-Melulngen, nophew of the em peror. He bad suffered a fractured skull and died without regaining con sciousness. At the suggestion of tlie nurse, the lqcal authorities gave the prluce tho funeral honors due ills rank, photo graphed the body and coffin, and sent the photographs, together with the personal belongings of the prince and a detailed account of his IllneSB to his family, at Melnlngen. . Tho young man’s father, tlie duke of Saxe-Melnlngen, acknowledged the courtesies In a letter expressing deep est appreciation and later—when the Germans entered Maubeuge — he proved' his' gratitude by directing the troops occupying the fortress town to treat the Inhabitants with the utmost consideration. The nurse was given a safe conduct through the German lines.

TEA FOR MEN IN TRENCHES • ■ Englishmen Believe French and Ger man Soldiers May' Form Habit. London.—Both tho French and Gor man troops are being supplied with tea in tho trenches. Tea Is easier to make and Is a better thirst quencher than coffee and It also keeps warm longer, which is an important consid eration in tho trenches. It Is just possible that both tho French and Germans will get to like tea, and both nations may become large tea users after tho wur. At present France and Germany, with a combined population of rporo than a hundred millions, are negligible: as tea consumers. It is likely that Englishmen too many learn some new tastes and new habits when the British soldiers come home. They may bring back a taste for strong coffee, cheap wine and black cigarettes. French soldiers brought" back from Algeria the taste of ab- sintho, and English officer's brought from Egypt In 1885 the cigarette habit. Bar English Language.
