DIE KILLED IN WS WEN GREAT flMAL
Imposing Ceremonies Hark Burial of 'frenchman, Victim of the Battle of the Somme.
PARIS, Sept. L—The duke of Rohan, killed In the battle of the Somme, has had one of the most imposing funerI als seen in France during the war. It .. was nojt only a tribute to the heroic young nobleman, but a public recognition that the sons of the old nobility i or France are fighting for the republic with the same ardor tlat the old nobility fought for the kings.
The Rohans are among the famous St old fighting families of France. They

Of the republic. The young duke of Rohan first •bowed his republican sympathies by becoming a member of the chamber of deputies. But he was no sooner elected than the war broke out, and he entered the republican army as a 'i'V second lieutenant. One day when home firs\juOil. leave he visited the corridors of •S* the chamber, and heard a deputy apouting politics to a circle of listeners. The duke murmured dissent to f'v/-, some of the political statements, "tf whereupon the deputy angrily ex-\-t: claimed: "ThiB war has brought a great many strangers to the surface.. I do not know this strange young man who dissents."
I a s o y y o u o n o k n o w e said the duke. "Let me introduce myself as one of you* colleagues of the chamber of deputies, member for 1/Aube. If you have not seen me there, V jit is because I have been at the front and have not set my foot in the chamI ber since the war began." I A little later the duke returned to i. the front, where he is credited with i one of the notable dare-devil undertakings of the war? While out reconnoitering as a cavalry lieutenant, i he arrived along with his orderly at an inn where a hundred Prussian soldiers ^iad taken possession and were f"fr*~4»^ying a drunken orgie. Warned by p. peasant, the duke would not turn back. Entering the place brusquely, and .speaking in German, in imperative
J. tones he commanded the party to surrender, as the house was surrounaea I on all sides.

Surprised by the sudden apparition,
^interrogated by a firm voice of coYnmand, and hearing the- orderly with his horses outside, the revellers re-
signed themselves, gave up their arms, j^tn|_ submitted as prisoners, until a French cavalry patrol warned of what had occurred, arrived to escort the hundred prisoners of a single hero.
This is the story, as told of the young duke of Rohan, and passing current as one of the realities of the war. That it is authentic is evident from the fact that it won him the legion of honor and placed the stamp of government recognition on the audacious achievement.
