NON-C0MBATANTS
TOLD TO Be GOOD
Rules Laid Down By the German
Army Are Liberal TO
Citizens.

Berlin, Aug 26.--The commanders
Of the German troops are issuing
proclamation to the inhabitants of
every hostile town they occupy, as fol-
lows:
"Citizens--a body of the German
army under my command has occu-
pied your city. Inasmuch as the war
is carried on only between the armies,
guarantee in due form the life and
private property of all the inhabitants
under the following conditions:
81. The inhabitants must strictly
avoid every hostile act against the
German troops.
"2. Food and forage for our men
and horses are to be furnished by the
inhabitants. Every such delivery will
be paid for at once in coin. or re-
ceipt will be issued. to be redeemed
after the termination Of the war.
"3. The inhabitants are to house
our soldiers and horses in the best
manner, and to keep their houses
lighted at night.
"a. The inhabitants are to put the
roads in a passable condition, to re-
move all obstacles erected by the enc
my, and to give the best support to
our troops, in order that they may be
able to fulfill their task, doubly diff
ficult in hostile land.
"5. 1t is forbidden to collect in
crowds on the streets, to ring the bells
or to communicate with the enemy in
any way whatever.
"6. All weapons in possession of the
inhabitants are to be handed over at
the town hall within two hours.
az. The Mayor, the clergyman and
four well-reputed citizens are to APP
pear before me at once to act as hos
tages during the stay of the troops.
Under these conditions--I repeat it
the lives and private property of the
inhabitants are perfectly secure. The
strict discipline to which our soldiers
are accustomed renders it possible
that no inhabitant will be compelled
to neglect his business affairs, or to
desert his home and hearth.
On the other hand, shall adopt the
most stringent measure as soon as the
above conditions are not observed. In
this respect shall hold the hostages
in the first instance responsible. Be-
sides this, every citizen will be shot
who is found with a weapon in his
hands, or committing any act what
ever hostile to our troops. Finally, the
entire city is res onsible for the deeds
of every individual citizen, and the
citizens will do we'll to keep mutual
oversight over each other, in order
that they may avoid the unpleasant
consequences that must follow upon
any cooperation with the enemy"
1t is as a consequence Of no-obser-
vance of such proclamations, the Ger
mans state, that a number of villages
in Belgium and on the Franco-Ger-
man frontier have been burned, and
the inhabitants severely punished.

ALL ABLE-BODIED MEN
IN GERMANY At THE FRONT
Rules of Government Has Made Berlin
Lady town, Say Tourists.

London, Sept. S.--As a result of
Germany's rigid compulsory military
service laws, there is not now an able
bodied man in the city Of Berlin, &C
cording to tourists arriving from the
German capital. The mobilization or
ders of the Kaiser called out every
male in Berlin except those too old,
cripples and boys. These now are do
ing police duty and guarding roads and
bridges. AT all the approaches to the
city and around the bridges and pub
lie buildings boys of II and IA years
of age may be seen, wearing uniforms
and standing guard with fixed bayo-
nets.
Since this war began, much has been
heard of Germany's military regula-
tions and much misinformation has
been disseminated. Military service
in Germany is compulsory. Liability
begins at the age of seventeen and
ends at the age of forty-five, but &C
tual service begins at twenty.
There are no exceptions to the rule;
no ways to dodge duty except by leav-
ing the country. The vigorous law APP
plies to all, rich and poor, aristocrat
and laborer.
The term Of compulsory service in
the Germany army is seven years in
the first line or active army; two OF
these in the ranks and five in the re-
serves, except in the cavalry and
horse artillery, where the periods are
three and four years. During this re-
serve service, the soldier is regarded
as belonging to his corps and joins it
twice in the five Cor fouI) year period
for six weeks Of training.
After being in the first line army
the German soldier passes into the
Landwchr, or second line army. He
| serves five years in the infantry, or
three years for cavalrymen and horse
artillcrymcn, in the first ban of the
Landwchr. Infantrymen are called
out for training twice in this period
each time for eight or fourteen days
Landwehr cavalry and horse artillery
are not called out in time of peace.
The soldier then is passed into the
second ban of the Landwehr, until he
reached his fortieth year. There is nc
training during this period Of service

CHAS. WILSON And
MISS BROOKS WE'D
St. Louisian Visits Cape On Bust
ness and IrduCes bride II
Hasten Mari, &c.

Mr.. Charles Wilson and Miss Emma
Nell Brooks were quietly married yes
terday evening at the home of the
brides parents, at 1451 Broadway.
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. F. Y. Campbell, with only imme
date members of the respective fam
lilies present
The wedding came as a surprise to
the many acquaintance and friends
of the young people, as it was gener-
ally understood that the date had been
set for about October /.
Mr.. Wilson, who is engaged in the
automobile business in st. Louis, was
recently Unexpectedly called to the
Cape on business matters, and it was
decided that as the time was so near
at hand it would be best to, have the
wedding at this time and thus avoid
the necessity of Mr.. Wilson's return.
The bride, who is one of the most
popular and accomplished ladies in the
city, is the daughter of Major and
Mrs. James F. Brooks, and was born
and reared in this city.
Mr.. Wilson is the youngest son of
Mrs. Emma Wilson, of this city. He
was born in the Cape and has lived
here the greater part of his life, but
for the past two years has made his
home in St. Louis where he has en-
tered the automobile business.
They are both of the most promin-
ent families in Southeast Missouri,
and enjoy the friendship and highest
esteem of the entire community, and
when they depart this afternoon for
st. Louis where they will make their
home in the future, they will take
with them the kindest regards of a
host of sincere friends who wish them
every success and happiness in their
venture.

ENGLAND MAD AT KING
People Show Disgust for Ruler Since
War Broke Out.

London, Sept. S-Perhaps nothing
more aptly interprets the feeling of
London in these stressful days, than
the changing attitude toward the
King and the Court. AS one moved
about, one notices curious revulsion
of feeling with regard to the court
since the beginning of the war.
It is no secret of course, that King
George and Queen Mary have tastes
akin to those of the late Queen Vic
toria and the Prince Consort, rather
than to those of the later King Ed
ward, whose penchant was for clever
and amusing people. He hated to be
bored and cared very little for curious
folk with ideas" In the old court of
the middle nineteenth century, which
mas been called the Golden Age of
London society, wit was not much APP
preciated. Queen Victoria liked to
laugh but she cared little for what
was not obvious.
Those days are coming back, and
their return has been more noticeable
since the war broke out. Without in
terfering unduly with matters best
left to experts, King George is keep
ing himself very closely in touch with
all the services, the war Office and the
admiralty especially.
Both the King and the Queen have
put in most of their time in the last
five weeks inspecting troops and war
ships, pouring over maps, getting first
hand reports from the war office and
admiralty and latterly. n visiting in-
wounded who have /. brought home
from the continent.
And so the British Court is comiuy
back into its own as the center OF
London society. There are those friv-
olous ones who have been outside of
Court doings since the accession of
King George and who have no place
in society.
The bulk of the British people arc
seriously, deeply concerned in Eng
lands part in the great struggle, and
they have no time or inclination for
frivolity They are now turning back
to the Court for the serious things of
the Victorian days and while that is a
very minor consideration, one that
certainly their Maicsties are giving
no thought to il is assured that Eng
land will come out of this war with
the old social prestige of the Court
largely restored and enhanced.
The lighter side of society has never
appealed to the King. He was brought
up aboard ship and though there is
plenty of recreation and amusement
i'm the navy, The men there are all thu
time doing things, meeting men who
have done things. Queen Mary, too
was brought up quietly and THEN

WILD GAME 10
Be PLENTIFUL;
TURKEY ABOUNDS
Southeast Missouri Will Be
Hunters Paradise This
Fall, Say Residents.
DROUTH A BOON TO
NESTING WILD FOWL
Ducks Beginning Their Autumnal
Flights---Deer Seen In the
Ogarks---Quail Plentiful.

Southeast Missouri, down through
the Little River Drainage District,
will become the hunters paradise this
autumn, if the reports that are daily
reaching the Cape are true.
The dry summer may have reduced
the corn crop, but it made the quail
and wild turkey flourish. The largest
coveys of quail seen in this part of
the state in many years are reported
from every community.
Flocks of wild turkey, nearly as
large as the tame varieties to be seen
at the average farm house, roam the
fields and swamp lands in the swamp
district. William Sanders, a farmer
living near limo, has three different
focks on his land.
They have become so gently that
they frequently wander to the barn
lot and pick up grain. He is awaken
ed almost every morning by the COB
bling of the gobblers as they call their
focks to order
There is one hen on my place."
said Mr.. Sanders, that has twenty
young ones. They are now more than
half grown and the gobblers have be-
gun to strut.
"On a farm adjoining mine there
are three hens and their broods that
run together. They frequently visit the
hog pens and the straw stacks. | have
heard that hunters had begun to
shoot these birds notwithstanding
the fact that the law does not give
them permission to so for several
weeks yet
"But it would not be good for
hunter to be caught shooting wild
turkey on my farm. There was a
flock that roasted near my house last
winter and / did not shoot at them a
single time and | would not permit
anyone else to shoot them.
"If hunters would wait until these
birds are full grown before killing
them and then be moderate in their
shooting, we would soon replensh our
stock of this splendid game"
Charles Hit, the Haarig barber,
yesterday received on invitation to
hunt this fall on the farm of a friend
who lives down on the Little River.
The writer stated that wild turkey
was plentiful all through that section
of the state. He expects to 90 tur-
key shooting as soon as the season
opens.
James King, who lives near Zelma,
reports many turkey in that locality.
81 haven't seen so many birds in
years. J found ono hen with a flock of
twenty-five. The gobbIcr did not ac-
company the flock" he said.
Il have noticed quite a number Of
hens with smaller broods this sum-
mcr. If they are spared until the sea-
on opens, we viii have some mighty
fine shooting down our way"
Wood duck is plentiful along the
streams and lakes in the lower coun-
ties. Several small locl,s Of Will
ducks have been noticed flying over
the lower counties, in spite Of the fact
that the season is yet early for these
birds to begin long pilgrimageS.
There has been quite a number Of
deer noticed in the foothills of the
Ozarks and other grazing places,
High water lin the spring has killed
many fawns in recent years, and ow-
ing to the dry spring and summer it is
believed to have partially replenishcd
the small herds that roam through the
Missouri range.
