titles the ravaging of Louvain in
these words:
IT realize the horrors and meaning
of war. 1t is, perhaps. for this rea-
son that LouVain does not spell for
me all that the Anglophile element in
the American press has attempted to
conjure up about the name. A city
has been burned. That Is all there Is
in the story of Louvain for me. AS
an act of war, it was justified as
measure of punishment and a warn
ing against the pertidious activities
of civilians in fields from which they
should absent themselves.
There is not one paragraph in all
the International law that has ever
been written that can be urged in ex-
tenuation of the conduct of the Bel
gian populace at Louvain in firing on
the German forces. or in condemns
ton of the act of reprisal involved
in the destruction of the city.
"Louvain was not city compare
lively rich in treasures of art and
architecture. It's particular pride
and the Baedeker attraction of the
place, the well-known Hotel de Vile,
was not destroyed The celebrated

never had seen a big city, never had
competed against a star athlete, yet
the awkward, green country boy
went from New York in superb con-
fdence that he would win.
On the Finland, after the athletes
sailed, Richards became the joke Of
the party, and they amused them
selves drawing out the raw young
ster on the subject of Parowan.
There came a day when the cham
pions of the world, representing
many countries, gathered in the sta
dunn at Stockholm, the day that the
running high jump was to be decided.
One after another, HORNE, who was
i'll, Thorp, Erickson and Grumpelt,
the American failed, and with the bar
at feet 8 inches only Richards, the
Joke" and Litsche, the German,
were left. Americas honor rested up
on the boob from ParOwan. Up, up,
they went, and at 6:3:9S the title
hung in the balance.
The moment of the supreme test
had come. The Americans who had
failed were cheering and encourag-
ing Richards. He took off his cap,
walked back two hundred feet, and
suddenly dropped to his knees. A
murmur of surprise, followed by a
reverent hush, came over the great
crowd.
Kneeling there, eyes appraised,
hands clasped before all that great
crowd, Richards was praying.
In a moment he arose, his face
alight, and, with a quick run, he
raced down the pathway, leaped,
cleared the bar by an inch and, in
spite of its prejudices the crowd roar
ed with applause. A few moments
later Litsche failed-and Richards
was Champion.

SEINE BROKE; FISH GET AWAY
Hard Luck of boston Fishermen
who struck "A Mig school
of MackereI.

After having been for eight weeks on
the Cape Shore fishing grounds off Nova
Scotia seeking mackerel the fishing
schooner Neda McKown reached the fish
pier with only 5000 large, fresh iand
l27 barrels OF sailed mackerel in its hold.
Crew members complained of the hard
luck encountered during the trip, and
after the schooner had tied up circulated
that the breaking of a seine cost them
about $1,000. On Monday the schooner
encountered large school of mackerel
off Canso. The seine boat was quickly
launched and within a short time had
circled the school with the seine. How
ever, the seine broke as it was pursed,
and all except the 5000 mackerel which
the schooner brought escaped.
The fishermen estimated that there
we're fully 10000 fish in the school, and
each Of the 1900 that got away would
have been worth 10 cents at the fish pier
today that being the price quoted for
large, fresh mackerel-Boston Globe.
