Horrors of Russian
Uprising Described
By American Girl
(By Universal Service.)
LONDON, Feb. 15.—1 n the famous
American soldiers’ rendezvous here—
Eagle Y. M. C. A. Hut—there's a quiet,
unassuming American girl worker who
was once a member of Russia's famous
Women's Battalion of Death. She has
lived through scenes of riot, murder, pil
lage gnd terrorism such as few of Uncle
Sam's soldiers ever dreamed of.
She is Mrs. Carrie Lou Thompson, of
Philadelphia. Two and a half years ago
she went to Russia as a governess and
arrived in Pefii:gmd ;‘uat as that city
began to ferm@nt with the revolution.
Food was almost impossible to get and
discases were spreading with alarming
rapidity
She went to Kiev and fell a victim to
’the spotted fever. Jn recovery she be
came %overness in the family of Captain
Lossieff and went with them clese to
the front, where she lived for two
months under the roar of shell fire.
Was Warned to Flee.
She returned with the family to Pe
trograd just Dbefore the reveolution
‘broke. On the historic night, Mrs.
‘Thom?son received a warning to flee,
and she and Mme. Lossieff were pack
ing their things when firing began in
the streets and soon a pitched battie
was on. She said:
“Revolutionary soldiers broke into our
room and robbed us of nearly everything,
except our money, wanich we had time to
hide.
“We were both placed under guard,
but Prince Lvoft had us released. Mme.
Lossieff became ill with fever and I
was charged with taking the children to
friends in Kharkov, 'fhe trains were
stopped, however, and no autos were
allowed.
Robbed of Everything.
‘““We sat all one night in the station
while soldiers abused and robbed us and
other rioters drank and fqught and shot
each other before our eyes. For three
days the firing was constant and we
saw sights of horror such as beggar de
scription.
“When we finally reached Kharkov,
where we found our friends had been
robbed of everything, and to get food we
had to arrange to have Captain Lossieff
arrange to bring us to Dubno. In this
town, on the border of Poland, we lived
in a battered nunnery under constant
shell fire.
‘““Here I saw the upheaval of the Rus
sian army following the formation of
the soldiers’ and workers’ committees. |
saw Kerensky come to the front and
harangue the men. 1 saw them swear
allegiance to him and then march over
and swear allegiance to his enemies. |
saw officers and soldiers, accused of
loyalty to the old regime, taken out and
shot or hacked to pieces in cold blood.
““Then, in order to do my bit, I joined
a detachment of the famous Battalion
of Death. With them [ drilled, and
would have gone to the front had not
Mme. Lossieff, still weak and helpless
from feva:r come to me and begged me
to get the <¢hildren away from constant
danger and into England.
| Disgulsed as Nurses.
“Dressed as Red ©ross nurses we
started. We were stopped for a num
ber of days at Kiev during the bloody
pogrom, and saw Jews slaughtered in
the streets by the thousands and their
homes ransacked and burned. Starva
vation faced the whole population. Bread
cards were issued, and we stood in line
twenty-four hours to get one pound of
bread each for Christmas day.”
Finally they took up their journey
again and were stopped by a battle be
tween Bolshewists and Ukrainians. They
slept on the floor of a farmhouse, with
shells bursting all around them and the
cries of wounded and dying ringing in
their ears.
They found most avenues of escape
cut off and wandered to P@trograd,
Perm, Vologda and by boat to Baku,
nearly ail the time literally through
rivers of blood. They reached Arch
angel the day affer the last boat had
left and lived in the railroad station
there three weeks. They finally got a
boat to Murmansk, across the White
Sea, from which they were able to es
cape to England. Here she took up
American Y. M. C. A. work.

Baptists Expect to Raise
Balance of Fund This Week
Workers Already Have Raised
$24,675 of Atlanta’s Quota
of $50,000.
By 0. B. KEELER.
The campaign for $50,000 by the
Gieorgia Baptist Hospital is going over
into this week, and, with $24,679.15
actually in hand at noon Saturday,
J. M. Long and others engineering the
drive are confiderit that the middle of
this week will see the full amount
achieved. The $50,000, which will
clear of indebtedness the Georgia
Baptist Hospital, is Atlanta’s quota of
a fund of $175,000 designed to pay off
avery obligation of every institution
in the State administered under the
Georgia Baptist Convention,
The team workers are to gather at
12:30 o'clock Monday at the Hotel
Ansley, for a luncheon meeting, to
plan the final phase of the campaign,
which will include work among 500
prominent business men of the city.
So much for business, which comes
ahead of everything these days. Busi
ness is a necessary sort of thing, 1
suppose. But it is iess pleasurable to
write ahbout business than about some
other things, which fall under the
general head of human interest. You
can get an amazing lot of human In
terest stuff to write about any hospi
tal, and especially a hospital like the
Georgin Baptist. The Georgia Bap
tist, with its vast range and scope of
charity work and its long list of child
patients, is nothing short of a mine of
human interest,
1 happen to know about a little girl
whe does not live in Atlanta, She
was, humanly speaking, entirely out
of luck. She was a cripple; appar
c¢ntly a hopeless cripple. Her little
feet had been twisted and warped,
and one leg drawn far out of place
3A
since she was a tiny baby, Hell
mother was a widow, and there
four other chi‘dren in the family,
All this was bad enough, in all ~,
science. But worst of all—you ;
can't understand what it means un
you TRY' it—was the ever-p ‘
knowledge that she was not like::fif
children. She could not rum :
and play; enly sit still and won ;
why. That s, I take it, the toug
thing any child ever comes v
against. It is a bewildering lone
ness, And you can not wonder that
spells utter ruin to the hopes :
Lsually the lives of the poor kids thus
set apart by Fate and marked by mise
fortune
Well, a good woman in the tows
write to the Georzia Baptist Hospital
and told about this poor little girl.
“Bring her here,” wrote Dr, Long
in reply.
The little girl came; bewilde:
frightened. What would they do
her, in this big, strange place? B
even before the operation she sou
that the place was not sirange at
It was the most friendly place she
ever been in. Before a day was ;
#he learned that the people thel
vwere her friends. They loved her, a:
of cours she loved them. Even the
cperation—and it was a gevere oney
by a great surgeon—seemed a friends
ly act to the little girl, And eve
body was so good to her, and
members of the woman's hospi
committee brought her flowers
books and toys and fruit, and even
before she could sit up she was hays
ing the time of her little life,
The rest of it is short and etuyb’
tell. That little girl is back to
home now. And she is LIKE OT
CHILDREN. She can run and
and jump and play. Life is a
and wonderful thing to her,
And THAT'S what your contribums
tion to this $50,000 fund will be doingy
Do you think it’s worth while 2
