Prayers for any army In Europe are not
contraband of war, according to Rev. A.
Catnpman. a German minister from TUv
erdale. Neb., who was on board a boat
with WO fjerman and Austrian reservists
captured by the English erf tbe coast of
England. The reservists were hustled
sshore and Into prison. Rev. Mr. Camp
mann and a few priests and Red Cross
physicians were hustled off with them
at first, but were later sorted out and al
lowed to go on their way to Rotterdam,
as the English agreed that prayers for
the Germans could not hurt them, and
physicians an surgeons are. always a
OoOend on the field, no matter to what
army they are attached.
Former Oermaa Tkaalata.
Rev. Mr. Campmann had been In Amer
ica a little over a year. When the war
broke out he sailed for Europe, as he had
been a chaplain In the German army and
was anilous to go back and resume his
duties there. It chanced that he sailed
on the Pottadam of the Holland-American
line. The ship wss given over almost en
tirely to German and Austrian reeervlets.
Ke has written Val Peter of Omaha a
letter telllitg of his experiences. "We
a-ere first held up by a French warship,"
he says, "but for some reason wet re
leased and allowed to go on our way.
We thought we were In the clear, 'but
then a big British cruiser steamed Into
view and grabbed us. They talked pretty
roughly snd snarled and barked Ilka
doga, but when they found I was a
preacher and a few of the otherpas
eengers were priests and doctors they
let us go on to Rotterdam, but kept th
MO reservists."
