Paris.-Mj’Hlustratlon, France’s lead
ing pictorial weekly, recently con
tained a remarkable story and a re
markable photograph of an incident
which occurred in the famous forest
of the Argonne. Both picture and
narrative are tho work of a.French
Junior officer, who writes:
The general one morning said to
me: "I want you to make your way
to our first line, anil if possible pho
tograph the German trenches 20 yards
away. Mind you, keep your wits about-,
you, for the enemy shoots the first
kepi he Bees and the moment he hears
a sound I”
Amid a mass of branches I
perceived our lads. A lieutenant,
warned by telephone, was expecting
me. In a penetrating whisper he
said: "Hist! they’re only fifteen me
ters oft.” I soon reached a faggot
hedge, and peeping through, with the
aid of a field-glass, I could distinguish
a heap of fresli soil ahead. It whs
the German trenches.
“Don’t look too long," said the lieu
tenant, “or a bullet will whip that
periscope from your hand. What we’d
like to know is whether they’re ‘bad
boys’ or ‘good hoys.’ ’’
By "bad boys" he meant the Prus
sians, who fling grenades, bombs,' or
minenwerfer shells morning, noon,|
and night; and by “good boys, 1 ' the
Saxons, who are lazier, and leave us
in peace for hours at a stretch.
We kept as still as mice all the
while, watching intently. Suddenly
the lieutenant began to whistle a pop
ular German song:
Drunten lm Unterland,
Bit da Ist’s so wunderschoen.
In tho valley below
How glorious the life!
Glimpse of William II as He Appeared
Recently at Eastern Bat
tle Front.
Amsterdam.—An Interesting pen
picture of Emperor William appeared
In the Kreuz Zeltung, an army organ
published In Berlin, from its corre
spondent on the eastern front. It
says:
‘'The emperor appeared with Gen:
eral von' Maekensen, passing along a
line of troops. For the moment I had
an Impression that he had grown ter,
ribly gray, but that was an error aris
ing from the fact that the head pro
tector he was wearing to keep off the
terrible cold was gray.
As a matter of fact the emperor
appeared extraordinarily fresh and
elastic, thougb. there was an added
seriousness noted In his features and
a certain bitterness in his voice which
formerly was not there.”
He stopped. We never moved a
muscle. Then from the trench oppo
site came the concluding couplet, whis
tled in the same-key:
El da Ist’s so wunderschoen,
Da moecht’ ich Jaeger sein!
How glorlouq tho life
With tho huntsmon you know!
1’ could hardly believe my ears. At
my side a soldier exclaimed: “Look,
there’B a German. That’s the first
we’ve seen alive since the war be
gan." ,
Hold your tongue!- Do you yrant
to be bombarded?" This-from the lieu
tenant.
“Heavens!" pursued the soldier,
whom artillery had made deaf, “there’s
a couple, one with a green cap and
something shining on It.”
With my glass I could easily see
two German heads Just appearing
above their parapet of earth—a sharp
shooter and a Bavarian infantryman*
They saw . tho hide kepi of our im
pudent "piou-plou." In genial tones
they called out, “ ’n Morgen Kama-
rade." (Good morning, comrade.) Then
other heads appeared. I counted five;
one belonged to an officer. This Beemed
to be the psychological moment to get
a useful mnd curious record. So I
handed the lieutenant the camera and
he held it above the trench and
cried out “Photographiren?”
“Ja. Ja,” called back th‘e Germans,
whose round faces broke into a broad
smile.
I quickly scaled our trench, and get
ting possession, of the kodak
stretched myBelf flat on the loose soil
and focussed tho German trench.
“Click," nnd with a salute to the en
emy I dropped back Into the trench,
Just as a cheery "Dank" came across
the Intervening space.
They seemed quite happy. One of

San Antonio, Tex,—The first girl to-

christened the baby Mary Elizabeth.

Tehnesseee family and have made
their home In San. Antonio for about
nine years. In each generation for
the last century and more sons have j
been born into the family and have

a funny looking old chap. He stopped,
his caravan, consulted some notes, and
swung around Into poBltlqn and let off
a couple of Bbots. The first one over,
second short, and it appears he was
quite satisfied'with the next four, for
he started packing up again.
“He had a kind of aeroplane with
him, too, on a lorry, also In tow. He
was tho funniest looking old cove you
ever saw: seemed -to be .running a lit
tle show of his own. Last we saw of
him was around the corner with his
traction engine half mired In the
ditch. But It appears he knew what
he was about, for he put one of the
enemy’s' guns out of action with the
four shots.
"Those little motorcycles—we call
them wasps, for they it Is that Bttng us

ho stops outside headquarters. You
hold your breath. If he proceeds at

reply but his receipted envelope, and
It's 'turn out,’ full para^ matching

“There was a park of flying men
near our laBt billet. They brought'
down a taube'Wlth rifle fire from two
of our planes that' went up after him.
They t)avo one very fast biplane there.
I heard one very, great yarn -of a big
observer. While he was flying over
the German lines and returning
against a strong head wind the ma
chine gave a heavy jerk and dip and
sent his gun, map case, etc., over
board. Some sedonds after the pilot
felt a groat bump. ' It was his pal com

had been absent much too long for
his own comfort.
“The wings of the machine were rid

are worthy of the greatest praise. The
