long to what is termed "Kitchcners
army"-men who have responded TO
his two calls for 100000 soldiers to
serve for three years or for the dura-

and have seen service previously.
The Territorials are considered the
flower of the force, as a great majority
Of them belong 10 the middle and upper
middle classes and are men accus-
toned to athletic pursuits. Both physi-
cally and mentally they are considered
by military men to be about the finest

They are drilling with feverish en-
thusiasm and are anxious 70 go abroad

siderable proportion of Field Marshal
Lord Kitchener's army is, of course,

Antwerp lvia London, Oct. 2s.-To
Brand Whitlock, the American Min
lister 20 Belgium, is due the credit for
saving the cathedral and the art gal
lcrics, churches. theatres and public
buildings in Antwerp during the re-
cent bombGrdmeut of that city by the
Germans.
When the Germans approached Ant
Wcrp Mr.. Whitlock asked the German
commander, General Wonder Goltz, 70
spare the historic buildings. IhereupOn
General Won der GOltz agreed to use
his good Offices in this respect If Mr.
Whitlock would prepare maps for the
German aerOplanists, that they might
direct the firing. Henry W. DiederiCh,
the American Consul General, then
arranged several large maps on which
were indicated the points which il was
desired should be avoided by the Ger
man shells.
General Won der Goltz explained 20
Mr.. Whitlock when he received the
maps that his gunners could not ALSO
lutely regulate their shells from direc-
tons given by the aeroplanists, Us the
guns were miles away from the city
lie added, however, that his men would
do their best.
The shooting was so skilful that the
Palac, Of Justice was the only large
government building struck during the
bombardmeut. Two shells hit II, but
did only slight damage. A bomb also
struck the fence Of St. Peters Church
The slight damage done 20 the city
is considered remarkable in view OF
the fact that in addition TO the three
days bombardment Zeppelin sirship.
