HISTORIC BELGIAN TRIANGLE.
Newark News)

Describing the road from Brussels
to Liege, which skirts the plains of
day." Such was the reputation of the
Hesbaye, Baedeker quotes the old pro-
verb. "Qui passe dams lie Hesbains est
combattu lendemain" n"-"He who en-
ters the Hesbaye is defeated the next
Hesbains for strength and bravery,
which the Belgians today are main
tanning.
The ancient province Of Hesbaye is
indicated on the maps as a triangle,
some fifty miles from it's base to it's
apex Liege. The River Meuse, from
Namur to Liege, forms it's southern
side; the railways from Liege through
Tirlemont and Louvain to Brussels its
northern side. A line from Namur
north to Brussels is it's base.
This triangle contains many famous
battleflelds. Besides Waterloo. there
is Neerwinden. here Marshal Luxem-
berg defeated the allies under William
II of England in 1893, and where a
century later the Austrians, under the
Prince Of Cobourg, uncle of the late
King Leopold of Belgium, defeated
the French. led by Dumouriez and
Louis Philippe.
Then. there is Quatre Bras. where
Eey's division fought part Of the Brit
tsh army and its German and Belgian
allies in 1915. There had been bat
tie the day before Sombree, and on
that June night the Prussians accom-
plished their unparalleled retreat from
Ligny, Fleurus, near by, won fame in
1922 and 1880 and again in 1874.

FLOOD SUSPENDED
BY BURME|S1ER
The League Executive Says
Charges of Partially
Have Been Made.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Sept. 5.-The
Northern league, tense with q battle
between Duluth and Winnipeg for the
pennant was thrown into further tur-
moil last night President Burmeis-
ter announced that he had suspended
Umpire Flood, who yesterday forfeited
a game to Winnipeg in the third in
ming, and if there were no further
cause for the forfeiture than appeared
in the first report to him. would throw
the game out of the standings. He
said that grave charges Of partiality
had been made against Flood and
that they would be investigated. Um-
pire William Carney left last night
to take charge of all the remaining
games of the schedule.
Say No Partially.
Winnipeg, Man., Sept. 5.-The ac-
ton of President Burmeister in sus-
pending Umpire Flood for alleged
partiality toward Winnipeg as the re-
suit of forfeiting yesterdays game
to Winnipeg. looks as if the league
head has acted somewhat hastily, as
Flood, though making mistakes, has
failed to show any favoritism to the
home club in recent games.

Brown Out bid Is Club Getting Stars
Battery From Louisville A.A. Outfit

st. Louis. Sept. 1.-"There are lot
Of people in st. Louis who think I
won't spend money to get good ball
players" said President r. L. Hedges.
That Is not true, though. I will
spend as much money to get good
ball player as the next manager.
But what was the use of my spend
ing money when O'Connor and Stow
all were leaders of the team. When
these two We're at the head Of the
club I secured players like Foster,
who now is one of the leading twirlers
for the Red Sox, but they were turned
loose. And I can site about half
dozen other cases.
That's why I did not spend a
bunch Of coin in those days. The
managers had then did not know
what they had.
1t Is different with Hickey, though,
Now have a manager who knows
what he is about, and my pocketbook
Is always open to Branch. If he
wants player, who he thinks will do
the club good, then 1 will bid as high
as the next one in order to get him"
Not Making Much Money.
II am confident that we are getting
somewhere, and that makes me hap
py. OF course. we are not making
much money, and I don't think any
one will for the next few seasons, but
that is not the idea. My club is get

(Chicago .Dispatch.)
It has been computed that about
36.000;0O0 babies are born in the
world each year. The rate of produc-
ton is therefore about seventy per

With the one-a-second calculation
avery reader is familiar, but it is not
everyone who stops to calculate what
this means when it comes to years
supply. 1t will. therefore, probably
startle a good many persons to find
on the authority of a well-known
statiistician that, could the infants of

the cradles would extend around the

The deal, which was announced by
Colonel Hedges, securing Pitcher
Lowdermilk and Catcher Severoid,
from Louisville, in exchange for a
cash consideration. Catcher Crossin,
Pitcher Taylor and another player to
be named later, was the biggest made
by the Browns since Clarence Walker
was secured.
The Browns gave up a, good deal to

Pete Compton and Mack Alison, three
fair players, were sent to the Kansas

The money was well-spent, though,
as Walker has proven one Of the stars
for the Browns this season. He has
been hitting in great style, being the
only regular over the 800 mark. while
his fielding and throwing have been
little short Of sensational.
Manager Branch Hickey was high
ly elated over the deal. He thinks it
will do the Browns a world of good.

IN Berlin WHEN
WAS SWASDECLARED
Prof. and Mrs. Vowles of
Fargo Has Exciting
Time Escaping.

Minneapolis. Mimi. Sept. 5.-Prof.
and Mrs. G. r. Vowles of Fargo col
lege, Fargo, N. D.. were in Berlin on
their honeymoon when the war broke
out. BY good luck they escaped to
England before the train service was
disrupted by the mobilization of the
German army. Their departure from
Berlin, however. was not without
many adventures, some of which Prof,
Vowles, who is visiting his brother in
Minneapolis. related
When war was declared on Rus
s1a, he said, "the greatest excitement
prevailed in Berlin. Immense crowds
paraded Unter den Linden and in
front Of the kaiser's palace. During
the night the kaiser appeared on the
balcony and spoke to the people,
arousing great enthusiasm.
Wished to Leave City.
My wife and 1 were interested
mainly in getting safely to England,
and we took the first train that we
could obtain. With four American
women we crowded into the only taxi
cab that was available and began the
momentous trip to the station. Our
taxlcab driver was a prince. He drove
US through the serging mobs in the
city with great swiftness and skill, but
MS daring almost got us in trouble at
one point.
Chauffeur Equal to Occasion.
The police had erected barriers to
control the crowds at various places.
one OF these separated us from the
station. The chauffeur, undeterred by
lear of the police, got calmly down
of the car and rushed out, and we
thought it was all up with us. But
the chauffeur was equal toy the occa=:
sion. He bIuffed them into perrnittfne
us to pass, the barrier remained
down, and we got to the station safe
ly.
That taxi driver was as unavari-
cious as he was brave. He only charg-
ed US four marks fifty for the six Of
US. l gave him five. When he be-
gan reaching for change handed him
another mark, and he seemed pleased.
Sorrowful Scene at Station.
At the station we were confronted
by other great crowds. We obtained
seats In one Of the compartments and
then turned to watch the animated
scene. Other trains were filling with
soldiers, women and children were
there bidding them good-by and it
was all very sad.
We made our way slowly across
Germany to Flushing, but had no seri-
Gus trouble and arrived in England
sarely. We do not care to repeat the
experience, though compared with
few"

FINE CROPS
Sheridan County Suffered Little From
Heat and Rust.


Heat and Rust.
Denhoff, N. D., Sept. 5.-Sheridan
county suffered less from the heat and
rust than some sections Of the state,
but damage was done to what promis-
ed to be the greatest crop ever har-
vested in this country. The present
crop Is the best that has been gather
ed in the past five years, and the farm
ers are feeling considerably encour-
aged.
The most satisfactory yields have
been from the Hannchen barley and
the Marquis wheat. Both appear to
have resisted the heat and rust better
than any other variety Of grain, as a
result Of which there will be large
ly increased acreage of those grains
next year. This was the first year
either had been tried in this locality.
Durum wheat was fair, some fields
going over twenty bushels. The fife
and blue stem were less prolific, and
other varieties Of barley and oats have
not brought large yields.
Labor has been scarce in this Sec
ton of the state. The farmers are
now becoming more interested in live
stock raising and corn growing.
