grarn ta Tim Omaha Bee..' A remarkable
story of a World staff correspondent, who
jrot to the British firing Una In Fran
was received today after having been
held by the cenvors In London. It wn
permitted to pass th? censors under an
agreement that no nines of places, mili
tary command- or Individuals should be
i mentioned.' so the identity of tha reel
ment cannot be given. It Is impossible
also for censorship reasons, to give tha
name of the correspondent. The story
follows:
Farina; Price of Bravery.
LONDON. Oct. 1 tSpfdal Cablegram
to New York World and Omaha Be.)
The English regiment tttat cannot Bleep
tbe men with nerve so racked by the
terrific stmgglo in the trenches on the
Aisna thatlthey cannot bring thcroselvea
to go to bed 1 the grimmest spectacle I
have met In this war. I spent night and
day with these men. and left them rather
hysterical myself, only a few hours ago.
We parted company and stilt tt seems
to m like a bad dream, from which it
Is hard to wake. This regiment is made
up almost entirely of Welshman and has
one of the finest records. It waa visited
and congratulated by : Field Marshal
French. It has been mentlonel hi official
dispatches f"r bravery, and now It si
paying the price.
Men did not begin to break until after
tha tenseness had passed. So long as
they were Under fire, they were cool
and In command of themselves; but the
position they held was so exposed to fire
that they never had a moment's rest,
and after a month, when they wera
ordered back they went to pieces.
I had spent the night before within a
mile of them, and there were other men
there nearly as badly- off. but they had
held an advanced position and had
blocked the German advance, Vhen I
turned south from the Aisne after a
night in the trenches, I took refuge for
the night at a farm on a rich plateau
that borders the Aiane, t is a big estab
lishment, employing- dosens of men at
ordinary times, and tha house itself is
built on a quadrangle 30 by feet. It
was almost big enough to shelter a regi
ment. Seek Billets far Rearlaaeat.
The owner and his son are in tha army
and the only person! there are two old
women, an old man and a girL They
took me in. gave ma a good dinenr. and
we were sitting around an open fire talk
ing, when a bell on the great door to
the court yard rang. We went out, to
find a tall English captain and aix ser
geants. ' . .
The captain explained that he had beea
sent ahead to find billets for his regi
ment, which had been relieved by- French
troops. - Ha spoke in a rapid, nervous
way. - and tha . six sergeants seemed
strangely fidgety. I acted as Interpreter,
and assured them that the ' lafra could
shelter three companies, and a farm two
kilometers farther oa could take -care of
the rest.
Handler of Serves. '.'
Leaving ' three sergeants, the captain
and the other three, went on to the farm
and arranged for billets. There two ser
geants remained. One returned with us
and took tha road back into the lines, to
show tha 'approaching regiment tha way.
AU this time I kept noticing how nervous
all these mn were, but It waa not until
I went into tbe comfortable hall of the
farm bouse again that I noticed how bad
it was. I bad arranged for them to go
to bed, but I could not Induce them to
do so. The sergeants prepared for COO
men., but all night they-"kept knocking
about with a -lantern. There were beds
for all; they admitted they bad not seen
beds for aix weeks, and professed a de
sire to get into them, but did not.
Iaaaoaalblo ta Sleep.
The captain was the worst instance I
have ever seen of a strong man going so
completely to pieces. lie stood six feet
three inches and weighed about 20 in
bone and sinew ona of the best types of
Englishmen. I knew by his type that
be by babit and training waa reserved.

but bis tongue was loosener! and he
talked for hours. I was learning aatonlah
ing thknrs, but tried many times to get
blm to go to bed. but ha would not even
take off hia shoes. He said ha could sleep
better In an arm chair before the fire,
and. In tha end. he never closed hia eyes.
I had not slept the night before, and
about 1 o'clock In tha morning fell Into
a heavy sleep, asking nearly at 4. He
was sitting, -wide-eyed, starting at the
fire and smoking. A few minutes later
others came in.
Tha captain said:
"Sleep? How could wa sleep, sitting
tense all night in tha trenches, knowing
that the Germans were less than a hun
dred yards away, and were watching
every moment for an opportunity to
overrun us?
Even la tbe day wa ha to lie just be
hind our trenchea, alwaa alert, .sleep
ing half an hour at a 'time, waked by
rifles on either side, and knowing that
tha country was filled with tpies, telling
everything we did.
VI am a soldier. I follow .war as a
profession. I hare fought in South Af
rica and have been in Indian campaigns.
I thought I knew what war was, but
never have seen battles between savage
tribes so fierce as the fight back there.
I am sick of war. I am no coward, but
I want to rest, to forget this last month.

it has struck roe how . little peopie at
home really know-about this. If I could
sbow England ona of these trenches, with
Englishmen dying of thirst and gangrene
within forty pares of their regiments.
"To go after them. to attempt to rescue
them. would mean throwing away hum
dreda more.
"Shrapnel ia breaking around you all
the " time. I have, seen abrapnel ao
thick that it did not seem possible for
anyone to lire through; but it doesn't
seam to kill much. But these big: shells

dsmage. If they break near you, you
are gone. "oi tuuntely. they don't al
ways break right. I counted thirty-seven

but J bare grown used ta it. It see ma to
act on my nerves aa if it were a drug;
but tt doea not make ma dodge tha way it
used to. if a shell breaks within a
few feet, you 'ordinarily duck. You can't
belp it; but it doesn't make me dodga any
more. I. hate them Just as much, but
they don't affect me."
The colonel, a kindly-eyed, gray faced
man, with sen ice ribbons half way
acroas his ' coat, kept saying thsl hs
was going to bed. but stayed up for
breakfast at i o'clock. . Then he said it
was too late.
They talked al-out the big sleep '.hey
wera going to have tho next night, and
kept talking about it until noon, when a
die patch came ordering them to move,
on at nightfall. Then they agreed It
was too lata to try to get any more
sleep. They seemed to welcome tbe night
march.
