RENO E STUBBORN,
Letter Taken From German Officer
Captured at Verdun.
Letters found upon officers and sol
diers of the German army taken. Oris-
oners around Verdun are given out
at French headquarters as indicating
the state of mind of the officers since
the failure of the first assault, and of
the feeling of the soldiers' families
at home. A letter written by Lieut.
Hordes, of the 81st German Infantry,'
to his parents, says:
"Our losses in officers are so con-
siderable that I was obliged to take,
command of the 8th Company. We

Dy George Herbert Clarke
Under this immobile stone
Lies a little girl, alone.
It was a. joy her life to see,—
So glad, and virginal,, and free
Her laughter gave the birds of spring
Sweet phrases for their musicking.
There is no laughter now, nor song,—
Silent she Iies here, all day long.
All day the roses over her
Blossom and blow; the winds murmur;
She heeds them not: she does not stir,
A little girl, so soon at rest;
The secret longing unexpressed
Wakened, then paled within her
breast.

After the bombardment of Alexan-

Egyptian army. Kitchener volunteer-
ed and was one of the twenty-six men
chosen for the work of raising a force
of 6,000 men for the'defence of Egypt.
The Fellah does not come of a fight-
ing race and the job seemed hopeless.
Capt. Kitchener was told to lick the
cavalry into shape and was attached
to the Intelligence Department. Be
proved that the Fellah was like a
bicycle, incapable of standing up
alone, but very useful in the hands
of a skilled master. In ten weeks
after the arrival of the first batch of
raw recruits 5,600 men went through
the ceremonial parade movements as
practised by the British Guards in
Hyde Park, and ,they did it with un-
usual precision.
14 Years in Egypt.
For fourteen years Kitchener serv-
ed in Egypt. He was with the Gor-
don relief expedition in 1884, and
stayed till the hero of Khartoum had
been avenged. At Handoub he was
severely wounded by a bullet that
shattered his jaw and buried itself
in his neck, and he was invalided
back to England. In 1888 he returned
to Egypt as adjutant -general to head
the First Brigade of Soudanese troops
at Toski, where he led the final charge.
Time and again he was mentioned in
despatches. From Governor-General
of the Red Sea littoral and Command-
ant of Suakim he was made Chief of
