When we got Into tho compartment
nnd I found thnt tho windows wcro
not smnshed I could not bcllcvo It nt
first until I remembered that this vn9
not a prisoner train. We had n forty
eight hour ride to Llrdau, which Is on
the Lake of Constnncc. and no food or
water In that time. Rat still I did not
mind It much. At Llndau they drilled
me Into a little house and took nwny
nil the addresses that I bad, and
then marched me over to tho llttlo
boat which crosses the lake.
As I started up the gangway tho last
thins I received In Germany reached
me a crack across the back with n
rifle!
Tho women and children on tho
dock had their fists up and were yell
ing, "American swine l" But I Just
laughed nt them. And when I looked
around tho boat and taw no German
soldiers only m Swiss civilians I
rubbed my eyes and could not bcllcvo
It When thoy gave mo bread, which
was what I had decided I wanted most
of all back In tho camp, I thought I
was In heaven sure enough, nnd when,
forty-five minutes Inter, wo arrived at
Rorschach In Switzerland, I finally
knew I wss free.
CHAPTER XXIV.
Back In the States.
After I arrived at Rorschach I was
taken to a largo hall, whoru I re
mained over night Thcro were thrco
American lings on the walls, the first
I had seen In n long time. I certainly
did a fine job of sleeping thnt night.
I think I slept twice as fast to mako
up for lost time.
In the morning I had arcgular ban
quet for breakfast eggs, coffee, bread
and a small glass of wine. 'Even now,
although I never pass up a meal, thnt
breakfast is still easy to taste, and I
sometimes wish I could enjoy another
meal as much. But I guess I never
shall have one that goes as good.
After breakfast they took me out on
the steps of the hall and photographed
me, after which I went to the railway
station, with n young mob nt my heels.
It reminded me a bit of Germany It
was so different. Instead of bricks
and bayonet Jabs, the .mob gave mo
cigarettes nnd chocolate and sand
wiches. They also handed mo ques
tionsenough to keep mo busy an
swering to this day If I could.
I got on the train to Zurich, and at
every stop on the way there were moro
presents and more cameras and moro
questions. At St. Gallon they had
cards ready for me to write on, and
then they were going to send them to
anybody I wished. The station at
Zurich was packed with people, and I
began to think I was n star for sure.
Francis B. Keene, the American con
sul general at Zurich, and his assist'
ant, were there to meet me. Wo
walked a tew blocks to his office, nnd
all the way tho cameras were clicking
and the chocolates and cigarettes pil
ing up until I felt like Santa Cluus on
Pecenlber 21th. After a little talk
with Mr. Kceno, he took mo to the
Stussehof hotel, where my wounds
wero dressed nnjl believe me, they
needed It.
The Swiss certain treated mo well.
Every time I came out on the streets
they followed inv around, and they
used to give me money. But the money
might just us welt have been leather
or lead I could not spend it When
ever I wanted to buy anything the
shopkeeper would make mo a present
of It
I also visited the Hotel Baur au Lac,
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Mc
Cormlck of Chicago, who aro doing
such fine work with tho Red Cross
and are looUltiu nfler the Belgian and

The Swiss Csrtalnly Treated Mo Well.
French refugees In Switzerland. It
was n dinner, and much appreciated
by one guest, nt least. I need not men
tion his name, hut he nte no much that
ho felt ashamed afterward.
I do not think ho got In had for. It,
though, for afterward Mr. nnd Mrs.
McCormlck each gnvo him u valuable
present, which ho needed badly. After
the dinner Mrs. McCormlck made it llt
tlo patriotic speech, tit which sho said
that tho Huns would never trample on
tho United States ling, and some other
things that made all tho Americans
thero very proud, especially Mr. Keene
and myself. So you see I was having
a great time.
But I was having n llttlo trouble, all
tho time, for this reason: thero wcro
qulto n few Germans Interned In Zu
rich, nnd they went abont In uniform.
Now, when I saw one of theso birds
nnd remembered whnt had been hap
pening to me JUst a short time before
tuy hands began to Itch. Bellevo me.
it was not "good morning" thnt 1
said to them. I enjoyed it all right;
they were not In squads and had no
arms, so It wns hand to hand, nnd pic
for me.
But Mr. Keene did not llko it. 1
guess, for he called mo to his office
one morning and bawled mo nut for n
while, nnd I promised to bo good.
"You're supposed to bo neutral' he
said. And I said, "Yes, and when I
was torpedoed aud tnken prisoner, I
wns supposed to bo neutral, too." But
I said I would not look for trouble any
more, nnd started back to the hotel.
But no sooner was I underway than
a Hun private camo nlong nnd began
to laugh at me. My hnnds Itched
again, and I could not help but slam
him n few. Wo went round nnd round
for a while, and then tho Hun re
versed and went down Instead. Mr.
Keeno saw us, or heard about It, so he
told me I had better go to Berne.
So off I went, with my passport But
tho same thing happened In Berne. I
tried very hard, but I Just could not
keep my hands off tho Germans. So I
guess everybody thought It was a good
thing to tell mo good-by anyway I
was shipped into France, golug direct
to St Nazalre and from thcro to
Brest
I made a sliort trip to null, England,
with a letter from a man lit Branden
burg to his wife. Sho wns not at home,
but I left the letter and returned to
Frnuce. I wns In Franco altogether
about three weeks, and then went to
Barcelona, Spain.
Then I took passage for the States
on the C, Lopez ) Lopez, a Spanish
merchantman. Wo had mostly "Splgs"
on board, which is navy slang for
Spaniards. Almost every one of them
had a largo fumlly of children and a
raft of petfij W sailed down through
Valencia, Almcrla, Malaga, Cadiz and
Lnj I'nlmn" tj tho Canary Islands.
WhCli We left Las Palmas we had a
regular menagerie aboard parrots',
canary birds, dogs, monkeys nnd va
rious beasts. The steerage of that
boat was some sight, bcllcvo me.
We hnl boat drill all tho way across,
of course, and from tho way those
Splgs rushed about I know thnt If n
submarine got us tho only thing that
would be saved would bo monkeys. But
wo did not even have a false ulurm all
tho way over,
I arrived in Now York during o
month of July, 1017 two years and a
half from tho time I decided to go
abroad to tho war zone to get some ex
citement I got it, and no mistake.
New York harbor and tho old statuo of
Liberty looked mighty good to mo, you
