FIGHTING WITH GERMAN!
(By Associated Press Correspondence) j
BERLIN, Feb. 6—That there is a j
considerable number of German pas
tors and theological students serving
in the armies at the front, is evidenced
by figures made public here. In the
Kingdom of Wuttemburg 169 pastors
have been called to arms, and 90 are
already In the fighting lines. Of the
170 divinity students at the University
of Tuebingen 150 have entered the j
army.
In the Army of the Argonne there is
one entire company composed of theo
logians. All the German univer
ties which possess theological depart
ments report large numbers of en
listments from this class of students.
! Very few of them, it is stated, care to
serve us ocfiiers but prefer to serve in
the ranks, where it is believed their ln
flunce on the ordinary soldiers will
have a great effect.

late in the afternoon, and approach
ed a wounded soldier who had lost
both legs and one arm through ampu

wounds. The soldier recognized the
aged Emperor, and asked to speak
with him.
" ‘I have a request to make of your
Majesty, who is all-powerful,’ said the
soldier.
“Anything I cati do for y r> i w HI
gladly do. ’ responded the E npi-ror.
“'Then give »)><-rr. order- : < n-c
“ ‘Then give orders to kill me,’
said the man.
“The Emperor, who is very tender
hearted, turned pale and grasped the
hand of an orderly for support. He
had to be helped out of the ward, and
since then his majesty has not seen
any of his military hospitals."
