WRECKED
YIELDS TO ENEMY
City in Ruins and Burning in
Many Places HOists
White Flag

London, Oct. 1O.-Antwerp has sur
rendered.
The Germans have entered it. 1t is
burning in many places. Two-thirds
of the city has been wrecked by the
bombardment.
The Belgians hold only few isolated
forts of the inner ring. They were
firing desultorily at latest accounts.
The Belgian legation here had not,
indeed, received official notification Of
the surrender up to noon today and
officials there said they doubted it.
The information, however, was from
too many reliable sources and in too
much detail to be seriously quest!noed.
Before the city's fall, two.thirds of
its population and practically the whole
of its garrison had evacuated it. The
burgomaster and military commandant
had decided further sacrifices were
useless. Surrender having been decided
on, King Albert led the army out, hav.
ing first dynamited Fort Merxem to
prevent the Germans from using it.
Cathedral Wrecked
The city itself was shelled for AS
hours, Experts here had expected the
Germans to take but did not believe
they would do so so soon.
Among the buildings damaged was
the cathedral Of Notre Dame, one Of
the most beautiful structures In Europe
dating from the fourteenth city. It
was badly wrecked. The Beleinns had
mounted ppid.firc guns in it spire.
Dispatches earlier in the week said
the Belgian capital had been transfer.
red TO Ostend and this was assumed
here today to have been the case, but
the British government had not been
officially notified Of II.
Fears were expressed that their latest
misfortune would seriously affect the
morale Of the Belgian troops.

MIR. AND MRS. THOMPSON
 TO LEAVE BIRMINGHAM

MT. and Mrs Joseph o. Thompson left yesterday afternoon to make their home permanently at their beautiful planta- ton in Lowndes county, where they have spent much of the time during the past month. Their departure is a matter of genuine regret to society and church cir cles, where MT. and Mrs. Thompson and other members of their interesting family have been most valuable. They have lived here for a number of years, but within short time the family has disn- tegrated. MT. Winston Thompson, their eldest son, and his young wife going to live in Brierfield two of the girls, Miss Edith Thompson, now Mrs. Eugene Cal laway of Selma and Miss Louis Thomp- the spring going to make their homes elsewhere
 It is gratifying to the friends of Mrs. Thompson that she still has many in- terests here, and will be an occasi1aal visitor That she will however form other connections away from the city is to be deplored, her influence and ac- tivity in church and civic matters have made her invaluable. The Southside Bap- tist church has had her devoted service during the years of her residence here. and no more able worker is listed in it's membership. She has also been a con scientious member of the Equal Suffrage association and the church extension committee, of which she was chairman was almost phenomenally successful. Bir- mingham can ill afford to lose a woman Of her ability and her delightful person. ality.
