V: , '" ' I F THE sever cold has been, felt in London, where there is at least some measure of shelter and warmth for most people, what must be the experi ence of those who have to facethe rlg OriNf this unusual weather In the open air, not by day alone, but through the night as well? Each season presents its special dif ficulties to the men who hold the line. In summer the files are a veritable plague, and the mud in rainy weather is an everlasting source of inconve nience, to eay the lfeasU It is, how ever, in the depth of winter that the test- of endurance is most stringently applied 16. the men who hold the line. J Imagine a body of men marching through the snow up to the. trenches when a frost of 25 degrees prevails. ' Everything they pass In their march la frozen hard. The village street la-deserted, save for the troops engaged, on work. The few remaining villagers remain indoors cowering over their stoves and only move to the windows to look out at the men who march past on their way to the 11 e. It 1 so cold out of doors that it Is almost tmpos-( sible to bear -the sting of the wind upon one's face. But the boys, who' are for the trenches swing along, dog gedly, It may be, but cherrily wlthaL ': Vast the Graveyard. -On they go! Past the church, upon which' the snow lies thick; past the graveyard, where all the mounds are .covered with spotless palls of white, and where the little memorial crosses glitter with the frost and Ice; oh past the village street, on and on into the open country inarch the boys who are for the line. Their pipers are at their head, but it Is impossible almost to play, so Intense Is the cold! On and on the boys stride through the coun tryside, .and now at length they reach the crossroads near which is the en trance to the long communication trench leading to the line. into this trench the men go, and in single file trudge along to their desti nation, the very front. As they eater the.treneh- ana disappear, it has an "uncanny effect. It is as though the now had swallowed them up! For' the rest of their journey they are shadowed mostly by th,e trench. When you who read these lines turn to a warm bed .at night, let your mind travel to the line and picture, if you can, the men who are defending you in your home the men who through the long hours of the night In the frost 'and snow stand under the blazing Stars- on the fire-step peering with never flagging attention out over the sandbags toward the enemy! Trench Comfort Xilmited. In some trenches the dugouts are very few, and the merest shelters of sandbag and board and sheet iron are : sll-rith protection the -men- have- At nlicht, even where there are dugouts. te alert Watch over the parapet must be kppt VIP from the first step. Vigi lance can never be relaxed. Kvery sign, every .move, every shadow in No Mns' Ijind musl be regarded closely. One- never knows when an tack may come nothing can be lefto chance. And so, from dusk till daylight, tbe i fire-step is manned with ever-ready sentries.: Think of what that means all night long with anything from CO to 30 degrees of frost, or In pelting, blinding snow or rain or slf-et!

CRUELTY OF MEDIAEVAL ERA IS OUTDONE TODAY I Liquid . Fire and Poisonous Gases Means of Killing Far. ;More'Hideous Than Agencies of Death Employed 1 . by the "Barbarians," CAPTAIN KIDD A SMALL FRIGHTFUL, mediaeval cruelty, such as would have been consid ered a thing only of the distant past four yeara ago, now lives again, says Sidney Dark, writing in a London newspaper. Human life has become a thing of slight moment and human suffering of even less account. "I have always doubted whether the mechanical progress of 'what was once described as the 'so-called nineteenth century' made mankind one whit hap pier or kinder or better," saya Mr. Darlt "It is certainly true that during the" hundred years before the war regard for human life was intensified, but this probably had an entirely commer cial and unworthy foundation. Undfer the commercial system a man's life has a certain money yalue Only the j foolish slavedriver whips his slaves to death. "With this greater disinclination to take the lives of others came a much more tender solicitude for oneself. Men hung on to life as they had nevr hung on to' it before, but, while they grew afraid to die. most of them grew afraid really to live. - Readiness to Die. "Since the outbreak of war there i has been among the mass of people in the belligerent countries a concentra tion' on national, rather than personal, interests, arM this has been accompa nied by a cheerful readiness to die which la a little appalling to those of 'us who are still swaddled in nineteenth century cotton-wool. We had supposed that the "progress of civilization' had ymade barbarous and calculated cruelty impossible. We have seen during the past two and a half years the most scientifically edu cated people in Europe adopting and applauding the appalling methods of massacre and torture employed by me- dleaval mercenaries and by the Huns of Attlla. - . . "All of us have shivered at stories of the peoples, of beleaguered, cities pouring molten lead on the heads of heir assailants! The Germans have sprayed their enemies with liquid fire, and have puffed poisonous gases in their faces. This sort of thing being done on one side-is immediately mnd necessarily copied by the other; so that a modern battlefield becomes 'a scene of calculated torture that might well fill the heart of an ancient Ital ian swashbuckler with envy. Crecy aad the somme. "Try to compare the battlefield of Crecy with the battlefield of tbe Som me I In the one case you had men killed by clean wounds inflicted by arrows and,' men bashing each other over the bead with clubs and . battle axes. There must have been, elation and excitement in the combat, and it was conducted according to chivalrous and accepted rules.

How we writhed with indignation at the horrors of walking the plank! What a small thing this was, after all, to the prowess of the German submarine, that, safely en trenched under the water, sends de struction by torpedo into the very vitals of an unsuspecting ship!. Cap tain Kldd was- at least ready to fight before he murdered. "The sinking of the Lusitahla, as a sheer horror, has no equal in the his tory of the seas. "The city was- taken and the women and children - were put to the sword. This is 'a commonplace of the history of the past, but all the massacre that the world haa ever seen have been outshone by the calm, methodical kill Ing of - the Armenians by the Turks. "Try to imagine what it. means to assassinate 700.OOO people! These un rortunates were butchered to make a Turkish holiday. fThe. whole thing Is not only hor rible, but it is utterly and hopelessly bewildering. On the one hand we are astounded by the extraordinary hero ism of common average men. On the other hand we are stunned by discov ering that bestial cruelty can still be -perpetrated as part of a definite po litical policy, just as it was perpetrat ed by the worst of the Roman emper ors, and by the most evil decadents who ever ruled In Byzantium." Brazilian Society . Is Very Proud Now Rio de Janeiro, March 31. (TJ. P.) Considerable chest is' being put on by Brazilian society just now over the fact that the new emperor of Aus tria, Charles I, is the great grand son of woman who was bon and reared In this city. The Brazil ian ancestor of the emperor was the Princess Maria da Gloria, -daughter of Dom Pedro and T. epoldfna ' Jo seph Carolina, archduchess of Aus tria. Pr incest Maria da Gloria, was born on April 4, 1819, and a quaint old de scription of the event tells of the celebration that - was given in . her honor.- . ... .. : "The people wera told by criers and were permitted to have lights in their houses. Rockets were fired and the " forts : and ships in the harbor made a continuous bombardment. Te Deum was sung in the churches and the nobility- flocked to court to kiss th hand of the infant. The schoone Lepoldlna was immediately dispatched to carry the happy news to-Portugal. The celebration lasted Ive days. Princess Maria da Gloria was but Is when she left Rio. She was at that time elevated to the throne " of Portugal. In 1S35 she was married to Prince Charles August Eugene Na poleon de Leuchtenberg but was left a widow two months later. In 1836 she was married, to Duke Ferdinand de Saxe Coburg Bonany of Austria and in this marriage had four son a Her; reign in -Portugal stormy in the extreme and she fought down several revolutions.- She died in It 53, leaving her husband and the four -sons, the 1dest of whom is Em peror Charles' grandfather.

TMs class of Germans has become sullen, dissatis fied, with the government, almost re bellious. While the- middle class re mains intensely patriotic, parading be fore the casaal observer a unified and determined' Germany, fatigue of war is making alarming strides among the working people. A great many of these humble people want peace at any price at the price of their colonies, of Alsace-Lorraine, even of their coun try's prastlgl ana position. Workars Besom mestaVe. ' Th?e working people, at least in Sax ony, are becoming restive. They have hungered and grieved and overworked for many months, ' with conditions steadily growing -worse and with each promise of peace fading into an indef inite prospect of endurance.

The people crowded around the railway stations to see the troop trains hurling past every 25 minutea. Then came the floods of wounded, the difficult read justments made necessary by the ab sence of wage earners, and then the numbing pinch of hunger. Worst of all waa the atmosphere that settled down upon the land, an atmosphere of want,' of fear, of suffering, of black depression, which seemed to seep through and through on and chill the consciousness; . ' ' All Are Taciturn. ' An ' eternal New England Sunday gripped the formerly bustling munu-! facturing towns in my district. The streets were bare of traffic. People! passed about their errands silently. There was no laughing, whistiUig, loud talking or jovial greeting. The busi ness streets were dotted everywhere by stores closed up .by war. Grass crew between the-cobbles In the 'road way. 1 Now and again oxen dragging primitive carts of farm produce lum bered i through the streets. Restau rants and cafes were deserted. It cost money to frequent them, and. more over, they had nothing to sell. It is hard to describe life under these conditions. The best I can do is to say; that it was suffocating. When not going to and fro about their work, th less well-to-do. hid their unbappl ness in their rooms. ' As it was, one was forever meeting on the street hollow-cheeked, emaciated, dry-eyed suf ferer. ; X felt as though I had escaped from a dank prison when I got back to this country and saw . happy, healthy., well-fed people again.

Saxony has borne an over-large share of the war suffering. It is pri marily a manufacturing country, and, so, has suffered most keenly from the effects of food ahortage. At one time last year the Saxons were eating a. bread eked out with chopped straw. Then Saxony did an enormous export business. The war swept this busi ness away and closed hundreds of fac tories.

In the campaign near Ixmna he was said , to have handled his troops with consid erable skill, but what endeared him- es- f ecialiy to tne Russians was the fact hat he exposed himself with reckless ness to Shell and shrapnel fire, exhort ing his soldiers appeals to . a their bravery, love of country and devotion -to the holy church. "' , , ,. ... : jj On thla occasion slsoMt 'was pub lished throughout Russia that the grand duke was another such marl at the Csar Alexander II, who Issued the ukase giving freedom from- sertdom to the peasants. Though In early Ufa he seemed to have the rather flabby Quali ties of the Romanoffs, it was said that . in the war, At not before, he had amply proved his strength of will. The now regent of Russia was ban-, ished Yronvthe empire early in Janu ary. 1911, by the csar, whom "now he -' virtually -replaces on the throne, "save only for thjs pretensa of rule of a feeble -boy. He Was banished because of the romance through Which, mainly, the " grand duke is best known fo the world, -though that romance is- often fconfnsed with a similar one in which his uncle the Grand Ikike Michael Mlchasto- : vltch. and the. Countess Ada Torby were the principals. Unlike some affairs of the heart In which Russians of the blood royal have . taken part, this one shed no unpleas ant light upon the grand duke. The . grand duke refused a mistress from the , ranks of the imperial ballet, a course almost unprecedented, and refused also -a wife from . the royal princesses of -Europe. Instead he married in Vienna, on October 16. 1911. the Countess Na- talis Scheretnetersky. a divorcee. v Countess -Natalt had . been divorced from Captain von Woulfert, a Russian officer stationed at Moscow. The two children born, during that period, when the captain well knew that the grand -duke, and not he. had his wife's af fee- ' , tions, were claimed by Michael as be longing to him. But by marrying the woman whom he loved, the grand duke had triumphed over the standards of morality of the Russian court, which held that to toe highly unnecessary. v- Csar Infuriated. . Though his wife was beautiful and intelligent, the czar was Infuriated at his brother and banished him from.
