Wear Belgian Uniforms.

Many of their cavalry patrols are
wearing Belgian uniforms, a practice
which is not excusable on the ground
of any lack of their own.
AN incident which occurred October
13 shows the resource and bravery of
some of our enemy's scouts. A detach-
ment of German artillery was retiring
and from time to time coming into
action. An officer of one of our flank
cavalry patrols had been standing for
some minutes under a tree when he
noticed fine wire hanging down close
to the trunk. He followed the wire
upward with his eye and was aston
ished to see one of the enemy in the
tree. AS he drew his revolver and
fired the German dropped upon his
head, also firing. The British officer
was stunned, and when he recovered
consciousness it was to find himself
alone. with the peak of his cap blown
away and his uniform covered with
blood which was not his own.
las the campaign goes on the ten
dency of the Germans to rely on the
splendid war material with which they
have been SO amply provided, rather
than o. the employment of masses of
men. has become more marked.

Limit to. Their Supplies.

There are now indications, however,
that their supply Of material is not mex
ha ustible. and the significant circular of
the Prussian minister Of war enjoining
careful search of battlefields for equip
ment and even the collection of empty
cartridge cases has been quoted in a
previous letter. This circular seems to
have been prompted more by necessity
than by habits Of economy, for in the
recent lighting both gun and rifle ammu-
milton of Ord patterns has been found IN
trenches evacuated by the enemy on
their dead and on pris, ners. Among the
latter are Mauser cartridges similar to
those used by the Beers IN the South Al
rican war"
phlets dropped by German airmen,
summoning the French to surrender on
the ground that they are only pulling
chestnuts out of the fire for the Eng
liSh.
Apart from these endeavors to in
f1uence the enemy" it continues, news
of a sort is disseminated among the
German Coldiers by means of a special
military newspaper called the Patrol,
which is published in Berlin. Its his
torical value may be gauged by the
statement made in it's issue of Septem-
ber 6, as follows:
TT may confidently be asserted
that the resistance of the active army of
serve troops and new formation Will
no doubt give our heroic forces plenty
to do as they advance further.
Was Not Justified.
After three weeks more of fighting,
however, the facts must have convinced
the German troops that this assertion
was not justified"
The writer of this report then gives
passages from captured German letters
which indicate anxiety concerning the
result of the fighting. One of these,
dated September 20, contains the follow
ing passage:
To-day we get papers from September
to $. and it is really painful to read
of the boastful announcements of our
march on Paris, for we are no nearer
Paris now than we were then. l do
not know whether you realize this, but
| there is no use of trying to hide it,"
The narrative, after saying "informa-
ton recently received corroborates the
impression already gained that the
enemys troops suffered severe priva-
| tions during August and September -
| and giving extracts from letters to
confirm this, concludes with these
| words:
| There is no doubt that the Germans
| have to a great extent recovered from
| the conditions implied in the above
| letters, but their forces are by nc
| means what they were.'

Sacramento, Cal, Feb. 20.-State

showed all sorts of class in the few
games in which he worked last sea-

eral pounds than he was last season.
He spent part of the winter hunting up
near the Oregon line in company with
Harry Mundorrf, Harry Hughes, Mig
Clarke, Jerry Downs and Willie Ho-
gan. Louis is one youngster in whom
Del Howard has no end of faith and
it is probable that the boy will get
more opportunity this season than he
had last Opinion is that Walter
Schmidt will go up to the big league
in another season and Sepulveda will
step intoa regular job. His chief weak.

IN THE RING
BY w. w. NAUGHTON

San Francisco, Feb. 20.-Some fight
ers are coddled along and some are
sent into good company the instant
they show evidence of class.
When the suspicion developed that
Carl Morris of Oklahoma, might one
day develop into world beater all
kinds of precautions were taken to
safeguard him as he was learning the
trade of the ring. A millionaire took
hold of him and furnished him with ex-
perienced tutors in addition to build
ing a gymnasium for him.
When Big Carl was finally launched
on the sea of professional pugilism he
bumped into all kinds of rocks-both
charted and uncharted. He has been
laid up for repairs frequently and now
they are talking of sending him
against Sam Langford.
This time, in all probability, the
Oklahoma battleship will be sunk COM
pletely and all the pontoons and cof-
ferdams in the world will be powerless
to raise or float him.
/ Bob McAllister, too, was sent along
slowly and what happened to him when
he got into the full whirl of things in
the east suggests that the time spent
in pampering and protecting a prom
ising pugilist is merely time lost.
I AL Kaufman had totally different
experience AL, in his four-round days
was known as "One Round" Kaufman
and it was prophesied that he would
cut a full width swath when slipped
from the leash as professional.
First they sent him against Harry
Foley, but it looked as though mild
hammered Harry had simply lent him
self to prove that al had right to be
called "One Round" Kaufman.
Without delay Kaufman was
matched with Philadelphia Jack
O'Brien who, in those years was both
a SiaSher and Stlnger.
O'Brien laughed when they told hin,
what terror Kaufman had proved as
an amateur.
81 can defeat any man who has not
had at least two years experience in
the professional ring" said O'Brien.
Jack gave the stalwart young San
Franciscan a hiding which in all prob
ability had its influence on the balance
of Ars career.
San Francisco has another promis-
ing young boxer in the person of mid
die weight Billy Murray and he is
being hurried along in the same man.
ner as Kaufman. On next Monday aft
ernoon at Coffroth's DAILY City arena
Murray will face Leo Houck of Phila
delphia, a fighter who has won his
spurs in contests with the very best
men in the middleweight ranks today
1t is certainly hard test for Muir
ray, but despite what happened to
Kaufman, it is surprising to note the
number of wise judges who consider
that Murray is able to take care of
himself in any kind of company.
Murray, like Kaufman, is a product
of the four round shows. For months
past he has been the bright particular
star of the Friday night game. Incl
dentally the four round phase of pugi-
lism is one in which a fighter is thor
oughly tried out. Very often cub
boxer becomes popular for awhile and
then drifts away to join those who
have been tried and found wanting.
Murray has stood every test and
the best proof that he is still in favor
with the patrons of the weekly box
ing exhibitions is found in the fact
that Coffroth has decided to match him
against one of the best middleweights
to be found
