feast.
lry 1:00 nil the llelglnn troops
were withdrawn except a thin screen
to cover the retreat. I was anxious
to witness the German advance and
remained on the outskirts of Scmpst
after all tho ltelglans hud withdrawn
except a picket of ten men. 1 had
my car waiting with tho motor run
ning. Tho Germans prefaced their ad
vance with n terrible rire. The air
was filled with whining shrupncl,
farm houses collapsed amid puffs
of brown smoke. The sky was
smeared In a dozen places with the
smoke of burned dwellings.
Suddenly a soldier crouching be
side mo cried: "I. en Altemnuds; Los
Allemnnds!" From n screen of
woods nloug the embankment hurst
n long line of gray figures, hoarse
ly cheering. At the snmo moment
1 1 heard n nnlnttnr of shots In the
village below mo nnd my chauffeur
screamed, "Hurry for your lire,"
monsieur, tho Uhlans aro upon us!"
I think I broke tho world's record
for tho dlstnncn In getting to my
car. As wo shot down the road
which leads to Antwerp at fitly
miles an hour, the Uhlans canter
ed Into tlie village, tho sun strik
ing on their lance tips.
Road .lammed In lletreiil.
Tho retreat from Mallnes was a
never to bo forgotten sight. For
twenty miles every ronil wns Jammed
witli clattering cavalry, plodding In
fantry and rumbling guns, their
cnlssoiiH covered with green boughs
to mask their position. Gendarmes
with giant bearskins, chauffeurs
In green conts, carbineers In leather
hats, machine gnus drawn by dogs,
nmbtihinccs with Red CrosH tings
ond enrs, cars, enrs, nil tho dear
old familiar Amcrlcau uiulies among
them contributed to form a mighty
human river flowing Antwcrpwnrd.
Slallucs has a population of r0,
000 nnd 45,000 fled when they
heard the Germans were returning.
Sights nlong tho road woro pathe
tic beyond description. Children
nnd aged, rich nnd poor, Initio and
blind, with tholr few poor belong
ings on tholr backs nnd piled In
push enrts, clogged roads and Im
peded the soldiery. Theso people
were abandoning nil they held most
denr to plllago nnd destruction.
They woro completely terrorized
by tho Oermnns. Hut the llolglnn
army Is not terrorized. It Is n re-
treating army, but It Is victorious
In retreat. Tho army Is cool, con
fident, courageous, and If the Gor
man giant leaves himself unguard
