soldiers as they fought behind the breastworks, the wires did not save the adjoining houses.
ADVANCE OF GERMANS THROUGH BELGIUM AND FRANCE TOLD IN CHAPTERS OF WRECKAGE AND RUIN
Warfare means destruction of years of labor, British troops finding it necessary to blow up bridges to halt the progress of German
forces. This bridge was wrecked at La Ferte when the Kaiser's army neared the French metropolis.

AUSTRIANS, HELD UP BY
ENGLISH, ROUGHLY USED
Army Officers Here Now Tell of
Their Detention.
Held as prisoners of war In England,
two lieutenants In the Austro-HunKarlan
army were released when they showed
that they had sufllclcnt money to bring
them to the United States. They are
now In this city stopping at 133.1 Pine
street. According to the officers they
were roughly treated by the English po
lice. At the Vrlxton police station in Lon
don, where they were made to register,
being citizens of the enemy, the soldiers
said the police were insulting. They were
detained there. One policeman, said the
lieutenants, shoved them about and shout
ed, "It would be best If we killed you."
The officers are brothers, Lieutenants
Paul and Ewald Faltln. Their homes are
in Prague, Bohemia. They were In Bel
glum when Aufltrla and Germany declared
war on the Krench. It being hopeless to
return home by way of the Continent they
went to England to get a boat. They
were In London when war was declared
and were detained by the authorities as
prisoners. When they produced sufllclcnt
funds to enable them to get to this coun
try the men were released. The Home
Oftlee wanted them in America, where
they could not get back to Austria, rather
than in England as prisoners of war.
' Paul l a manufacturer In Prague. His
conrorn Is one of the largest manufac
turing rone In the world. His brother Is

Philadelphia and have taken apartments

statue of Renjamln Pranklln, especially
the face, which Is dirty. Also there Is a
white iine extending from his chin to his

Pranklln as they habitually do with a

Some Irreverent comments on the con

something should be done to restore tho
