SHAW ID REPLY ID GERMAN OVERTURES He Says It Will Probably Result in Broken Windows JOSEPH CONRAD ILL Maurice Maeterlinck Gets Great Well come in Birmingham, England.
 May Sinclair's Adventures
 in Belgium
By HAYDEN cHuRcH

London, November 7.-(Special. 3-We are to have a tremendous pronouncerent from George Bernard Shaw on the subS 5ect of the war before many days, 1t seems, and from what its author himself says about it one judges that he doesn't expect his countrymen to find 1t wholly to their liking. though of course G. B. s. Is far from being pro-German.
 The German press, however. has been doing its double derndest lately to con- vert him to pan-Kaiserism. The most re- cent attempt WAS made in the form of an open letter in the "vossische'' of a week or SO back.
 Tn the course of 1t the writer said
 ''The Germans revere old England all most as their fatherland. They have un- derstood, recognized and accepted Shakespeare (whom you, Bernard Shaw. cannot harm) more than any other peo- ple-yes, more than the English them selves. Byron received more love and kindness from Goethe alone than from the whole of the English nation. Newton. Darwin, and Adam Smith found their best disciples and expositors in Germany. The considerable dramatists of young Eng land, from Oscar Wilde to you, Shaw, Galsworthy and-Knoblauch, are es- teemed by us Germans, and constantly produced. |. And yet your statesmen today. wholly unworthy as they are to represent a people with your past and your traditions. excite the Mongols and the Kaffirs against us,s your brothers, steal or let others steal, our tiny, de- fenceless colonies from us, and laugh at all thought of European culture and eth tcs."
 Upon reading this remarkable screed with its wall about poor little Germany's s defenseless colonies, an editor friend of mine wrote to Shaw, asking for an article 1n reply. Unfortunately, however, he was too late, for "G. B. S. replied as fol- lows:
 T have written it already Cor very nearly) It is 35,000 words long, and its present destination is a special war SUD- plement of the New Statesman. It would be cheap at s150o; but your windows would cost something to mend.
 G. BERNARD SHAW"
 The New Statesman" is edited by Shaw's great friend, Sidney Webb, the social reformer, who used also to be the personal friend of H. G. Wells, but who the latter takes Joy In castigating when ever he gets the chance. It is doubtful, however, if any of Webbs windows will be broken. however strong the Irishman' s outpourings may be.
 May Sinclair. whose latest novel, "rhe Three Sisters" is just out, has been hav- ing some terrific experiences in Belgium with the motor ambulance she has been helping to support. The ambulance has been lodging about under shrapnel pick wounded a nd Ca ri,E i'm to the hospitals. After being driven out of Ghent, Miss Sinclair and her friends escaped to Bruges, but no sooner had they arrived than they were driven on by the approaching Germans. Then they hurried on to Ostend, and now have had to leave there. At present, however, Miss Sinclair is entirely safe and in good health, but

SAVE THE WILD FLOWERS
Then There Will Be More of Them Next Year and the Years After

You are fond of flowers, so you will be sorry to hear that many of our prettiest wild flowers are fast dying out of certain places where they used to grow, says the Christian Register.
 It is because people pick too many, often all they can find. They cannot all grow again. as people sometimes think. because the flowers that are picked can not go to seed, and if large branches are pulled off it will take long for the plant to get back to the same sIze. Then many of our very prettiest flowers have but one blossom or cluster to plant, and a small plant. too; and people arc apt to take the whole of such plants, roots and all.
 You go out for pleasant walk in the summer or you go on a picnic, and don't you often, all of you, pick clowers when ever you seen them, and sec what large punches you can maker And how many get home with you at night? Many of them are wilted and you arc tired of them, and do you not generally throw quantities Of them away? Did you ever think that you had destroyed life which you could not bring back and beauty which you had never made?
 But you will think that 1 want you to pick no flowers at all. This is not what l mean. l only want you to think just what happens when we thoughtlessly pick all that We find or pull up the roots. or even when we pick but a few of the truly rare wild flowers.
 Where flowers are very abundant you can take some A few columbines and lupines are far more beautiful than many held close together. There are even some flowers that you may gather In quanu- ties
 Daisies, buttercnps and wild carrot are the farmers enemies. He will be glad to have your help in getting rid of them, but what charming flowers they arei The latter well deserves the name of Queen Annes place" There is little chance of exterminating wild roses The robins plantain and the fleabanes. that come just a little later the yellow daisies. sometimes called black-eyed Susans but ter-and-eggs, the goldenrod and asters Of autumn-there is not much danger of your destroying these.
 But you have judgment: use it. When flowers are few leave them all Never take many, even when they are abundant except when you are helping the farmer Think of the others who may walk in the same woods after you, and leave pretty things for them to see. Do you would be done by.

.S|XTY-TWO DOCS.
 ENTERED IN TRIALS
Smallest Number in History of the Southern Club
 Contests

Montgomery. November 1.-tSpecial) sixty-two dogs have been entered for the trials of the Southern Field Trials club, which will be held at Letohatchie the week beginning December 14 The en- tries in the trials closed on November 1 with 9 all-age and s5 derby
 The entries of the Southern Field Trials club closed this year with the smallest number in its history. This fact is be- lieved to be due 10 the financial depres- sion throughout the country and particu- '1arly In the south The Southern club s trials ard fixed institutions and since the club is in excellent financial condition we have on hand ample funds to meet all our obligations.
 Some of the best settlers and pointers in the United states now contesting for honors In the field trial world, are an tered in the Southern clubs trials The judges of the trials are Col W. r. Garth. Huntsville, and Leon T. Cheek, Nash viile. &
 The drawings of the derby stake will be held in the parlors of the Gay-Teasue hotel, Montgomery, on Sunday night. De- cember 13, and the drawing for the all- age on the following night, after which the annual meeting of the club will be held. The Southern clubs headquarters will be in Montgomery. though quarters can be secured at Letohatchie by any per sons who may wish to stay at that place during the week of the trials.
 Quail this year is said to be particularly abundant on the clubs grounds As many as 20 bevies have been raised during a single day with a pair of dogs on the clubs course, The club has extended an invitation to all sportsmen. whether members of the club or not to attend and witness the Southern trials.

Of what was assumed to be manifesto ton of divine displeasure.
 Among the papers of the court which. Sir Lewis said, were in such state when he became dean of arches in 1903 that spade was almost needed to dig them out of the dirt in which they were buried, were some 2oo0 tales of real life, told often with a wealth of detail which not even a modern newspaper could safely achieve. There was ia suit, for instance, against a vicar who drank too much and threw tobacco pipes about the churchyard. and generally misbehaved himself but the limit was reached when he insisted on keeping a cheese in the haptismal font, and suffered it to remain there all winter to the great discomfort of the parishioners sitting nearby
 The records showed. too, added Sir Lewis, that In 1666. the vicar of Alder minister was charged with great va riety of nisdeeds, from desecrating church ornaments and utensils by turn ing them to domestic purposes, to hunt. ing, smoking, frequenting ale houses, and playing games on Sunday
 But the head and front of his offend Ing, according to the speaker, was that he boasted friendship with Oliver Cromwell

ARMY WINS FROM
 NOTRE DAME TEAM

West Point, N, Y, November 1.-The Army won from Notre Dame today, 20 to I. The Westerners handled the ball loose ly throughout the contest
 Tho Armys initial score came in the first few minutes of play after Goodman recovered fumbled punt on Notre Dame's 15-yard line. Four plays netted a touchdown. In the same quarter the Cadets blocked a Notre Dame punt, Bene- dict falling on the ball over the line for tally.
 Notre Dame flashed a fine offensive drive in the third quarter and rushed the ball 40 yards for a touchdown. The Army scored again in the last quarter.
 There was much forward passing but neither made a success of 1t. Mills end play and Pliska's fine work in the back field featured for Notre Dame while Hodgson, Benedict, Merrillat and Butler shone for the Army.

MONTGOMERY MAY JOIN SOUTH ATLANTIC
Capital City Is Displeased Over Losing Baseball
 Franchise

Montgomery. November Special Notwithstanding Montgomery's loss of her franchise in the Southern league. there is every probability that the city will have baseball next year. Fans to- night suggested that Montgomery might enter the south Atlantic league by purchasing the franchise owned by Columbia. S C. Considerable disappoint- ment was heard on all sides tonight over the loss of the franchise. whicn has been sold to Little Rock and 1t is probable that active efforts will bo made to secure another franchise. Richard Tillis. president of the Mont gomery Traction company and owner of the Montgomery baseball club in the Southern league. is mentioned as probable owner of the new team.

the third Georgia scored again on a beau tifully executed forward pass from Pad dock to Logan, which placed the ball on Clemson's one-yard line. Powell bucked it over. The punt out went wide.
 It was the same story as last Saturday. when Mississippi ran at will through the Red and Black after they had been held seoreless for three quarters.
 Webb. James, McMillan and Schlitter starred for the Carolinians. while Captain Paddock was the whole works for the Georgians.
 Thompson and Henderson did the best defensive work for the Red and Black. "Tinny" Henderson was hurt during the fourth quarter and il is possible that he will not be able to get into harness again this season In the words of an old Geor- gia player who saw tho game.

 Maurice Maeterlinck, they say got a wonderful reception at the Pavilion thea tre, Newcastle, the other night, when he appeared on the same platform with Lord Haldsne at meeting in aid of the Bel gian refugees. The audience cheered him again and again. Belgium has been called Englands foster-child, said Mae terlinclk. and England has proved her self a good foster mother My country men. realize that Englands word is her bond"
 Most people picture Maeterlinok as pale, consumptive looking man, who lives on poetry and water in a world apart. In reality he Is a benevolent looking giant with a strong Belgian accent, who asks what there is for lunch as soon as he ar rives anywhere. His methods of work are characteristic. If I waited for in spiration," he remarked to a friend of mne once, T should do nothing. So I sit down with pen and paper for three hours every day If the ideas come I write them down.

 Joseph Conrad, 1t seems, Is not in the best of health. He was in Cracow when the war broke out, and is now at Fakes pane, health resort In Galicia.
 Of forcible feeding you heard much from this country before the war began, but have you ever heard of forcible shaving? About this and many other picturesque and amusing things, Sir Lewls Dibden. K. C., told the Authors club at it's month ly dinner the other night in the course of an interesting and witty address on the history of the historic court of arches, of which he is dean. Every now and then one hears of this mysterious court Of arches. in connection with some ecclesias- tical dispute or other, but probably no one person out of 10000 in these islands has the slightest idea of what 1t Is or what powers 1t has. Among those who listened to Sir Lewis Dibdens remarks on the subject, by the bye, were E. F. Benson. whose famous "Dodo" Is now en- toying a second lease of life; Israel Fang will. Max Pemberton, whose son is at the front; Hall Caine, Charles Garvice and others of less renown.
 Sir Lewis declared that his present title of dean of arches apparently was first used in 1172 by Pope Alexander III. in an edict to the Archbishop of Canterbury. in which his holiness required that clergy r,en who grew boards should be pursued and forcibly shaved by the archdeacons Old Bow church, In Cheapside, Sir Lewis went on (to have been born within the sound of whose bells makes one true cockney), was originally called St Mary of the Arches. from the beautiful arches or "bows still to be seen In the crypt and here the court of arches continued to sit and deal with different church mat ters until the great fire of 1868 destroyed the church. It would seem, however. that sittings were sometimes held at St. Paurs, for whhen the cathedral was all most destroyed by lightning and fire in 1561, the presence there of the court of arches was suggested as a probable caus

Washington, November 7.-Goorgetown and North Carolina Agricultural and Me chanical college battled here today to a to tie. The game was bitterly con tested from beginning to end and was marked by much roughness on the part of both teams.
 North Carolina scored in the first period when Georgetown attempted to kick. The ball was blocked and Riddick, North Carolina's right halfback, recovering 1t. raced 35 yards for a touchdown. He also kicked goal. The North Carolinians maintained this advantage until the last few minutes to play when Georgetown executed beautiful forward pass for 30 yards and crossed the line for touch down.
