KAISER FEELS
DEATH TREMOR
FRANCE MUST HOLD WEST
LINE NECESSITY MORE
..IMPORTANT
An article appeared in the Petit
Journal, Paris recently written by
George Clemenceau, the former
Premier of France which has caus
ed considerable comments. The
writer is of the opinion that the
Germans are to make another trial
at breking through their lines in
an effort to reach Paris. In part
the writer says.
"The Teutons and the Bulgari
ans,seconded in an underhanded
way by King Constantine, are go
ing to hurl themselves soon upon
Saloniki.
“They can be sure of getting a
mitable reception from General
Sarrail’s men, but I would rather
-see French bravery usefully em
ployed than celebrated in dithy ra
ni bics.
“The sole question confronting us
is what strategical advantages are
we going to obtain at Saloniki.
The persons most convinced of the
efficacy of our Balkan policy can
not say that we are to gain any
thing there unless we send a great
many more troops, yet I don’t be
lieve that any chief would accept
the responsibility of weakening our
front in France just when the
whole of the European press is
announcing a supreme German ef
fort to break through.
“The Kaiser is feeling the death
tremors. While the Teuton appeals
for peace go unechoed, the German
peoples are asking themselves whe
ther they are not going to smash
themselves aginst an aggregtion
of force which their “junker” and
professors have stupidly underated.
“The wastage in effectives, the
street riots in Berlin and the grow
ing misery caused by the scientific
apportionment of food all attest
that the Kaiser feels the rod of
domination shaking in his hand.
“Where can he deliver his supre
me blow? His Russian advance
i has led only to exhaustion of his
effectives.
"Even Count Tizza check the
peace clamor which is sweeping
over Austria-Hungary, which has
been tom asunder by misfortunes.
“The campaigns in the East—Me
sopotamia and Egypt— are Pyrr
hian dreams. Fhantasmagooria of
delirious imagination cannot cre
ate aijmies.
“But now the supreme opportu
nity arrives. It is to try to march
to Paris again from the line the
Germans have held for sixteen
months despite our efforts, and
whose most salient point toward the
capital is Noyon, It may be only
an empty threat, but who in
France will dare to ignore it; who
will dare to weaken our western
■front by a single troop or a single
gun?

VENCENCE IS SWEET
EVEN TO A BOY
ONLY TWELVE YEARS OLD AND
LEADS HUNDREDS OF SOL
DIERS TO THEIR DEATH
(From the Slovo)
In a certain place a Cossack pa
trol which had penetrated far in
to the enemy's flanks, came across
a peasant boy, about 12 years old.
the child was lying hidden between
some tussocks of grass, and when
found he was unconscious, his
breathing imperceptible. One of the
the Cossacks threw him over his
saddle and brought him to camp.
On recovering consciousness he
narrated what had taken place.
“I was with the Germans on Sat
urday,’ 'he said.
“How is that?” the soldiers In
quired. They thought he was wan
dering.
“I was in the marshes. I have
drowned them” the boy said. “It is
the fifth party I have drowned.”
“How did you drown them?
“I led them astray. They came
to our village. I was the only
one remaining there—all the others
had gone. I remained on purpose.
But, you see, they have shot me.
I have been wounded.”
“Why?”
“I led them here. When they
came to the village I went to meet
them. They began to name the
places around the village and ask
ed me to show them where these
places were. You need to know
every pathway in the marshes, other
wise, if you should deviate a lit
tle, you get into the bogs, and the
more you struggle the deeper you
sink. I led them quite wrong. I
am small and light. I have a pole
and I can skip across the tufts of
grass. Then I know a place where
the ground is harder, near some
trees. The Germans were stout and
heavy, and they sank deeper and
deeper into the mud and screamed
at me. Then I laughed, and they
fired on me in their rage; but they
sank deeper, and I hid behind the
trees and I watched then dis
appear.”
“See the young wolf cub, who saw
people drowning under his eyes!”
a Cossack said.
“If I am a wolf cub, what are
they? ” said the boy. “What did
they do to my mother?” And he told
a terrible story of cruelty and lust,
and described how he had promised
nis mother to avenge her. “I did
not want to wait until I grew up,”
he said. “I wanted to taka my re
venge now. She died at the hands
of the Germans, let them die,too.
When I get w'ell I shall continue to
drown them.”
Toward night the little fellow
breathed his last.
