The Ashes of L@wvaii1n


TvHE destruction OF Louvain by the
German army brings a disastrous
ending to once prosperous Bel
Sian town. Thousands of Americans
who have visited the quaint city re-
member 1t as having been only about
twenty miles east of Brussels and SO
easy of access from the Belgian capital
that an afternoon away from the large
city was all that was necessary to
view Its beauties
The history Of Louvsin has not been
Its happieet memory. The fact that 1t
could SO easily fall prey to the over
whelmkng forces of the kaiser was
partially due to the fact that its in
habitants numbered only about $4,000.
Back of its numerical weakness lies
the story Of the oppression Of its early
rulers and the spirit of independence
OF its brave men. who revolted against
the dukes of Brabant. All this hap
pened centuries ago.
When Columbus first sighted land in
the new world I1ouvain was an impor-
tant Industrial center for cloth makers.

more than four times az many people

but his interest did not stop there.
1t was his pride in the town hall that
absorbed his thoughts. True. this edi-
fee had been left standing. but amid
u mass of ruins. He had looked upon
this Hotel de Vile in its wonderful
Gothic architecture since a lad. The
numberless carved statues of distin-
guished rulers and citizens of various
had been the means of his learning
the history of his town. He had heard
the verdict of tourists that it was the
finest town hall for its size in all Bel
GUM, and his leisure had often been
spent admiring the paintings there by
the old masters.
The surrounding wreckage barred
him from a close inspection of the
building. and SO he could only WON

Importance of Sea Power.

"THE Importance of sea power is
demonstrated In this war" said q
naval officer. land the possibility is that
the lesson will not be lost on the Ameri-
can public. The sea power of Great
Britain liz the greatest weapon OF the
allies. German commerce has been
brought to a standstill. Such. merchant
ships as fly the German flag are idle In
neutral ports. baund up in their own
ports. under judgment before British
prize courts or at the bottom OF the sea-
Outside food supplies are cut Off and the
sale OF German products abroad is STOP
ped. The German feet representing
heavy expenditures OF money and time,

ming those ships are prevented from
striking the blow for which they have
long been trained and fed.
This matter of sealing up the ports OF
a trading nation may not be SO impress
sively tragic or dramatic as the hurting
back of an army. but II is practical and
effective warfare. paralyzes the country,
increases the hardships of war on nom
combatants and combatants. and starts
those backfires Of discomfort which often
lead to such a general demand for peace
that the blockaded nation makes the best
terms il can.
Great Britain, commanding the seas,
keeps her own ports open and commerce
moving. feeds her own people. and trans
ports troops and supplies without inter-
ruption. German oficialdom has made &c
plain that Russia's action was anticipat-
ed and Frances expected. but that Great
Britain's was inexcusabie and unforgiv-
able.
Germany felt that on land she could
crush France and hold Russia In detail.
Her fleet would probably have destroyed
or blockaded the fleets of Russia and
France and would have sealed up the
coasts Of France. With her own ports
open and those of France closed, the cali
for speed in her campaign would not have
been SO imperative as 1t has been. Sea
power in the struggle of nations has been
and is emphasized by all authorities on
strategy and is clearly understood by peo.
pie of common sense.
"The lesson / would draw from this is
that the United States should maintain
its fleet at the top point Of readiness ana
efficiency, that the feet should be ar
strong as the United States might REQUIRE
In the emergency Of war. and that that
requirement should not be estimated and
determined by those who though sim
cere and patriotic. are generally refsrrsd
to as little navy men,"

very outset, and suggested and partial

which SO delayed the arrival of heavy

the aerial scouting has rendered in
calculable service Incompatible, throw

Offensive aerial work is just begin

Just Before each new phase of a bat
tle-like bats fitting over a lawn in
twilight-the aeroplanes of both sides
zigzag in the smoke and gases, high
above the fighting and back behind the
enemy's lines. Their object is to rec
tify the artillery fire.
At awful risk, they pick up informa-
tion and rush back with it to the bat
teries. Many are shot down, and in the
terrific struggle going on below them
no one notices. They zigzag like bats
to avoid being hit. French and Ger
man aeroplanes attack each other. Now
and then they smash into each other
head on. And it is nothing.

There are pursuits and escapes
worthy of Jules Verne. A French scout
in Lorraine, pursued by two strong
German monoplanes with repeating
arms. escaped by tricky virages to the
French lines. The same day, above
Thionville, a similar pursuit ended in
the death of the Frenchmen. They had
just blown up the railroad junction of
Karthaus. Two German aeroplanes
were circling over Cambria. One was
shot down and the other, returning at a
great height, projected four bombs into
the firing post and killed nineteen

prominent families in Colleton county

Walterboro shot and probably fatally
wounded Shealy Bennett. who lives
near town, last night at IL O'Clock.
The trouble arose, it is said, from the
act of Bennett sometime ago of attem-
pting to give trouble to the family OF
Griffin on account of school boy quar-
rel.
When the shooting occurred it ap-
pears that Mr.. Bennett was attemp-
ting to take from Mr.. Grimm the pis-
tol which Mr.. Bennett alleged belong

nett sought to use knife, and there
are several gashes in the clothing Of
Mr.. Griffin.
Doctors attending Mr.. Bennett say
that there is little hope for his recover
ry, five bullets entering his body,
some of which pu1ctured the abdom

Immediately after the shooting Mr.

DEATH TOLL HEAVY
IN CLUB HOUSE FIRE
st. Louis DiSaSter-SeVcn
Bodies Recovered

st Louis, March 9.-That from
thirty to thirty-fve guests OF the Mis-
souri, Athletic Club perished i'm the
flames that destroyed the building
this morning is the belief Of officers
of the club tonight.
Seven bodies have been recovered
and from twenty-three to twenty-aine
occupants OF the structure are still un-
accounted for. At sundown tonight
fremen continued the search for bod
les in the smouldering ruins under
the glare Of searchlights.
Though a committee early today
opened headquarters at the Press club
and asked all who were guests of the
Missouri Athletic Club last night to re
port, thirty to thirty-five did not reg
lister, and hourly the feeling grew that
all these were lost.
Hope was given by Fire Chief
Swingley late today that the water
could be pumped out of the ruins to-
night and that search for bodies might
then be resumed.
While the search continued today
fifteen persons injured in the fire were
under treatment at public and private
hospitals.
There was much difficulty in iden-
tifying recovered bodies of the dead
and some OF them were identified un-
der two or three different names.
