WAR LEVIES ARE JUSTIFIED
Cologne Gazette Says Brussels and
Lieee Pay for Bad Treatment
Of Germans.

London.-The Daily Nails Rotter
dam correspondent quotes an article
from the Cologne Gazette in justifica-
ton of the fines levied on Brussels and
Liege. as follows:
"The war tribute is punishment
for the bad treatment of Germans by
Belgium two weeks ago, when inno-
cent Germans at Brussels were hand
ed over to the tender mercies of the
mob.
What happened there will ever be
a stain on the honor of the Belgian
people.
1T must suffer all the burdens al
lowed by the legal right of law, such
as quartering troops and furnishing
supplies, until all its resources are ex-
hausted, SO that the citizens can feel
personally that hunting defenseless
women is different from having an
enemy in their own homes.
THE legal punishment for the Of
lenses of the Belgians will be imposed
as fully as allowed by law"

French Troops Greeted as saviors by
People, Who Then Helped the
Germans.

Par1s.-A dispatch from Bourges
gives the recital of a French officer
wounded in Lorraine. He sets forth
how the Germans were aided by the
local inhabitants.
The officials of villages in Lorraine
greeted the French troops when they
came into town as saviors.
. No sooner had they done this than
they would go to the edge of the vii
lage and hang out French flags, big
white sheets, etc., to indicate to the
enemy the exact position Of the
French soldiers
The mayor of one village tapped a
French field telephone wire for the
benefit of the enemy.
A local schoolnaster corrected the
range of the German guns by moving
the hands Of the church clock.

GOLF COURSES AS GARDENS
Two Thousand of Them In England
May Be Used to. Raise Food
the People.

London. - Proposals that golf
courses, cricket and football fields be
plowed for raising crops during war
time have been reaching the war Of
fee.
A. J. Sherwood, secretary of the
Walton-Heath Golf club at Epson,
points out that there are at least 1000
golf courses in the country which
could spare some if not considera BILE
land for cultivation. The Walton
Heath club has already started an ex-
pertinent of twelve acres under cult
walton.
In these days of self-sacrifice no one
appears to be wanting to enjoy him
self on the golf links. They are gen.
orally deserted and probably will be to
the end of the war.
L. B. Gullich, secretary of the Golf
ers' club, has suggested that hundreds
of the clubhouses should be offered to
the military authorities for use as hos
pitfalls.
Mr.. Gullich is sending a letter to
the secretary of every club and ex-
poets that if the war office favors the
scheme, practically every clubhouse in
the country will be equipped as hos
pital.

WAR SPIRIT IN THE NURSERY
Small Scions of PrinceIy European
Houses Take the Infection
From Their Elders.

Even in the midst of war the human
element remains. This little story
came from Berlin the day before war
had been declared on France:
Two little grandsons of Kaiser Will
helm, children of the crown prince,
appear to have inherited the martial
temperament Of their ancestors. The
eldest, Prince Wilhelm, somehow got
hold of the fact that the prince i'm
perial of 1870 went to the front in the
Eranco-Prussian war and asked his
mother, Shall go?" yes" said the
crown princess, "but grandpapa will
put Off the war for Is years, when you
will be grown up"
The young princes play all day at
"Austrians and Russians" newly in
vented military game, which consists
in knocking over rows of sand piles,
and the Russians are always ignomin-
iously defeated.
Little County Zchichy, six-year-old
relative of Austria's ambassador at
Berlin, who has been staying at the
seaside near the family of the Prussian
crown prince, is the local hero. He
stole away and, armed with a tin sword
and a genuinte pistol without ammuni-
ton, proposed to go to the front, but
was ingloriously captured by the en-
emy-a fat Pomeranian nurse.

ADVENTURE OF BRAVE BAND
Five Hundred BeIgians, Left Behind at
Liege, Repulsed Germans for
Eight Days.

London.-The Antwerp correspond.
ent of the Morning Post tells a vivid
story of the adventures of 500 men
Of the Belgian army at Liege, who ar
rived at Namur, after 20 days Of fight
ing and marching.
At the opening of the war their
post was between the Liege forts
Chaudfontaine and Embourg. On
Wednesday night of the first week of
the war orders were given them to
evacuate their position, but the orders
never reached this battalion, which
became isolated by the Germans, but
with a strong fort on each flank.
The Germans were aware of their
presence, but did not know their
strength, and the Belgians, entrench-
ing, were able to hold out eight days
after the retirement of the main Bel
gian field force and repulsed constant
German attacks.
Finally when their rations ran short
they succeeded in breaking through
the German lines, and after many hair
breadth escapes reached Seraing. This
was not accomplished without several
brushes with the enemy, during which
many Of their number were wounded

The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.
announce mo war prices on Goodyear
Tires" Mr. F. A. Sieberling, president
Of the Company, thus explains their
unique position.
1--WE advanced Goodyear prices, as
others did theirs, when the rubber
panic came. Almost in day crude
rubber rose in New York from SO cents
per pound to much over dollar.
1.-THE New York supply was too
small to consider. We cabled our
London people to buy up the pick OF
the rubber there. By acting quickly
and paying cash they obtained l,5OO'-
900 pounds of the finest rubber.
THAT big supply of rubber is now
nearly all on the way to the Goodyear
factory in Akron. It constitutes the
best of the London supply.
I'VE are using the same grade OF
rubber and the same amount OF 1t as
we always have used in these tires.
1--WE are running our factory with
three shifts of men, twenty-four hours
a day. So long as we remain in this
fortunate position on rubber, we shall
supply the users at before-war prices
to the limit Of our capacity"

I'm France and Belgium, German
citizens were treated in the meanest

were driven out of Paris and Antwerp,
and in many cases their money and
railroad tickets were taken away.
They were then left without the
slightest protection to the mercies
of the mob.
"In Belgium excuses against Ger
man citizens have taken place which
should be expected only from savages.
Every store owned by a German has
been wrecked. Practically all Ger
mans were robbed Of their belongings.
Many who tried to escape were
slaughtered and their clothes torn
from their bodies. German women
have been stripped, dragged through
the streets by the hair when naked,
and shamelessly abused.

diers, physicians and wounded from

FAMOUS BELL STOPS TOLLING

A night or two before the German

architect who built the town hall, was
tolling as usual when it was suddenly
reduced to dumbness and was found
to have sustained crack about
twenty-five inches long and one-third
of an inch wide. It Is supposed that
through the excessive heat the metal
had expanded and become unequal to
the violent beating of the new ham,
mers used since the restoration of
the belfry two years ago.
Vhe bell is one of the most celebrat,

by that of Bruges, whose fame was
sung by Longfellow. The belfry of
Client is 375 feet in height to the top
Of the spire, and contains "A bells.
The one which is now, unfortunately,
cracked was originally made in 1914,
but was recast in 1859. 1t bore in
Flemish the inscription: "My name is
Roelandt; when 1 toll then there is
fire; when L peal there is victory
in Flanders"
In 1889 the Austrians fired at the
belfry to prevent the citizens ringing
the alarm. The cannon ball hit one
of the bells and made hole in it, but
the tone is said to have remained IN
