In Letter Written Here From Osnabrueck Germany-Am- bilious Russian Grand Dukes and Perfidious England Blamed for fl,e War--Ingra.itude of the Japanese Germans Have No Fear of English Navy-The Father land All of One Mind With Their Kaiser.

Miss Amy H. Dove writes the Bull letin as follows:
 In these days when the sympathies of the Americans have been so strong ly enlisted on the side of the allies, it is but fair that we should listen to the German. also, and so I am ask ing you to print a translation Of let ter which have just received.

 But the country which has brought on this calamity. the country for whom Germany was becoming too great and powerful, the country that looked with 1 jealous eyes on our growing fleet perfldious England, deserves both our hatred and our scorn.
 Proofs have been found that Eng land believed she would be ready in about two years with her armament and preparations to crush Germany utterly. It is our good fortune that Russia has brought on the war earlier England has ever understood how tC raise strife among nations. to make them fight for her in order, at the end, to play the part of loving medi- ator and draw forth advantages fol herself.

YANTIc AGAIN A
 MARK FOR BURGLARS Trisd Three Places Monday Night Took SiIverware, Watch and Other Articles at Charles N, consdon's.


 Burglars seem to find Yantic an easy mark. Monday night a German family by the name of Stensins were awakened by burglars, who were forc- ing an entrance into their house on Main street and they frightened them away. They watched them and found they went to E. A. Jones' grocery store. They were forcing an entrance there but the Stensinsi drove them away.
 The burglars ran up the Fitchville road and entered the house of Charles N. Cpngdon. When they entered the house they closed the hall door lead ing to the sleeping apartments. They went to the pantry first and devoured a loaf of bread and several other eatableS. The dining room was next visited and all the silverware and plated ware was taken, as well as a diamond ring and gold watch. They ransacked the entire lower floor. talk ing all small articles that they thought could be easily disposed of and left the place. tt
 When Mrs. Congdon came down stairs. Tuesday morning the traces of the burglars were much in evidence and calling MT. Congdon they looked around. Clothing hanging on the line in the yard was untouched, It was evidently work of professionals.
 It is proposed among the villagers to circulate a paper among the prop erty owners to see if sufficient sum of money can be pledged to give the town the protection of a policeman Burglar alarms have been installed in some of the buildings.

met all the Austrian conditions ii Russia had not backed her up.
 Russia begged our kaiser for peace negotiations while. despite her assur- lizing on the German frontier. What ever be the result of this war, we can maintain that we were not guilty of it and did not wish it With clean hands and hearts we are but defend ing our fatherland. Our kaiser went sure peace; and we are all of one mind with him that the limit had been reached. Longer hesitation would have been self destruction.
 You will see from this that our soldiers are not marching to war against their will. In their fashins eyes you read the determination to conquer. Even the smallest nincom- poop would turn his back on anyone who dared speak of possible defeat.
 Tn the last few weeks thousands Of soldiers have passed our house singing joyously. At night they march silently. not to disturb the sleepers. But the tramp, tramp of their boots Is heard long before and afterwards
 Happy are those who die on the hot held of battle, compared with the wounded who fall into the hands of the Belg{ans. The latter have poured poison into the wounds and put out the eyes of those lying helpless While we are literally severed from the rest of the world, we hear thai our enemies are influencing the press of neutral nations to our hurt ani imposing similar barharities to us. In point of fact. if blame can be lait | to our charge. it Is that we carry on war in too humanitarian a fashion We beg all of our friends to speal in our behalf We hear, too, that al | the foreign newspapers report con. lstant and heavy losses on our side
 while the truth is that beyond ou
 expectations we have won victory af ter victory.
 It Is grave question what to d, with all our prisoners, who numbe
 already more than 100000. Every das lgreat transports full of prisoners ant lwounded arrive here. The work grows lyet it seems as if the hands to per form the work sprang up even nor lrapidly.
 'Tn the early August days. man, ltimes the thought flashed through m. lmind, How peaceful you were a yea ago in beautiful Norwich;' but it wa lalways followed by a prayer of grat litude. Thank God that you are her, tnow.'
 By the time this letter reaches yol lmuch may have changed. We hop, land pray that victorious peace ma, ibe not far off. There has alread, been enough of this horrible lettin,
 of blood on all sides. But the outcom of the war we do not fear. Our en thusiasm is sincere and universal l Osnabrueck. Sept 4. 1914.
