EXPLOIT OF BRAVE BELGIAN
Swan Canal to Lower Bridge for.
Troops and Succeeded But
Lost His Life.

London.-An instance of %conspicu-
GUS bravery by a Belgian soldier, who
sacrificed his life to help his regiment
across the Willebroeck canal, is re-
lated. The soldiers name was Tresig-
MES. He volunteered to swim the
canal in the face Of German troops
and try to lower a. bridge that had
been raised and which made 1t i'm
possible for the Belgians to cross and
engage the enemy. He scrubbed a
note to his wife and children, read
ing: g.. RS
GOD will bless and comfort you"
Then he plunged into the canal, to the
amazement Of the Germans, who with
held their fire for a few moments.
This gave Tresignies time to accom-
plish his purpose, and when the Ger
mans perceived what he was trying to
do they concentrated their fire on him.
He was riddled with bullets and sank
just as the bridge crashed down into
its place.
The Belgians rushed across 1t with
shouts Of triumph, and the Germans,
who were not in great strength, fled
precipitately. The body of Tresignies
was buried with full military honors
after the engagement.

GOING HOME TO O

A Frenchman and a German who
were reservists on the same ship re-
turning to Europe, were interviewed
and here is what they said:
I've are going home TO fight" said
one of the French reservists, "but will
save our fighting till we do get home."
"Why should we pick quarrels with
our French friends aboard the ship"
asked a German. "Wait till we ge.
home; then will come the fighting
Can IL be claimed that men like
these reservists, who will part in
terms of friendship, only to meet a
little later to see which car shoot the
other to death, have any heart in this
war? Earnest pleas are made on ev-
cry side that this is a war of racial
elements, of racial hatreds. Where is
the evidence of it? The people do
not even know what it is about.
Can anyone pretend that the sud-
denness with which this avalanche CT
blood was precipitated gave the peo-
pie any time or opportunity to express
themselves? If a referendum were to
be taken among the common people
of Europe at this moment, as to wheth-
er or not this hellish piling up Of
corpses should stop, would there be
a single negative vote? If the bills
Of war were paid in advance, how
many a would there be?
But the bills of wal are always
marked: &C. 70. P"-Collect on Pos

The Rabbit Bounty.

To the Editor:
There seems to a be tendency
to treat the rabbit bounty mea-
sure either as a joke or a calami-
ty. 1t is neither, but is some
what scientific and a wholly ec-
onomic problem of removing a
present and long threatening
menance. The adoption of the
measure by a heavy majority in
dicates that popular sentiment
was behind it and the strict and
proper administration Of the new
law should, therefore, be greatly
assisted.
The object Of the law is to ex-
terminate the rabbits-not to
bankrupt the county or to furnis h
a living for the unemployed. Its
abuse is safeguarded by clearly
and understandable provisions
requiring the applicant to make
oath that the rabbits for which
bounty is asked were killed in
qarney County, after January 1.

paid out by retail merchants to

Continue the wholesale staugh-

thickest, and If a worthy citizen
arms himself, provides ammunition
and goes out on the uncleared
lands and breeding grounds and
kills the straglers, which will
quickly bring on another big crop.
