es of the chase by German troops of young Belgians making a dash for the frontier in an effort to get to Holland and thence across the Chan nel to England to join the Belgian army in Flanders.
 The German sentries just over the river separating the two countries never cease their vigilant lookout for these young fellows and the precau- tions they have taken to prevent them crossing the line are very stern. Bushes have been cut down and ob- stacles in the way of clear view of the landscape have been removed. On the bare ground barbed wire entangle- ments have been erected to depth of many yards.
 Yet the young Belgians dare every thing. They crawl beneath the wire in the night and with luck manage in many cases to get through at the ex- pense of torn clothing and flesh. Then, however, there is the open space before the frontier to negotiate. This is closely guarded by German landstrum troops, but the Belgians often try to cover it in a desperate dash under the fire of the sentries.
The Cordova daily times., 1915-05-14

Numbers of them succeed. for the Germans take good care not to fire fin the direction of the frontier, as they would thus run the risk of shooting the Dutch sentnels on the other side of the line and in this way commit ting breach of neutrality.
 Once within Dutch territory the Belgian youths are free. As they are not yet soldiers, they cannot be interned and most of them make their way to a port for shipment across the Channel.
 The Dutch troops on other portions of the frontier have also to keep a sharp lookout for smugglers, owing to the rich profits in case of success. are very daring and tricky, and they do not hestitate to use violence against their own countrymen.
 Gasoline and horses are the most profitable to the smugglers. The former brings at least treble It's price in times of peace.
 Sound horses of any age fetch ex- traordinary high prices from the Ger mans, anything up to $500 being paid for draft horses.
 All roads leading to the frontiers are closed to traffic. Directly on the border line at wide intervals stand single sentries with their load ed rifles resting beneath their arms. About 200 yards further back is second line of sentlnels and behind these some distance in the rear are pickets of dozen men with a non- commissioned officer.
 The smugglers naturally keep to side paths or go across country. In case they should be seen by the pick. cts they are at once arrested and their loads confiscated. Often, however, at night they succeed in passing through the gaps between the pickets. Then their progress becomes more difficult and their presence is often discovered by the inner line of sentries who fire if the smugglers, as sometimes hap pens, make dash to reach the Ger. man lines. Occasionally the chase is a lively one and gives rise to rapid fusilade, which in many cases proves fatal to the smugglers.

TOURISTS ADVISED
 ID VISIT ALASKA

Devoting it's space unstintedly to Alaska and the Northwest, the May number of Sunset Magazine, which has large circulation in the Eastern states, has done more than it's share towards inducing visitors to the expo. sitions to so arrange their western tours that they will not return with out making a flying trip to the Land of the Midnight Sun. The articles are well prepared and beautifully illus trated, the feature being That Land Up There" an informative article on Alaska by J. J. Underwood of the Seattle Times staff.
 More than 10000 inquiries received at Sunset office during the past three months from persons planning a trip to the West have been answered with a card introduction. The card inden. tifies the holder and notifies those to whom it Is presented that Sunset will appreciated any service rendered which will help to make the visit of It's friends pleasant and add to their comfort.

FOREIGN TROOPS CANNOT ENTER
 HOLLAND

BERGEN-OP-ZOOM, Netherlands, May 14-Dutch soldiers under arms stand at intervals along the Dutch Belgian frontier near here, keen ob- servers of the movements of the Ger mans in devasted Belgium, for Hol- land is determined she will not per init without fighting the entry of foreign troops from whatever side they may come.
 The Dutchmen, themselves not at war, live through at least some of the excitement of actual fighting, for in the stiffness reigning over the peaceful agricultural districts about here they can hear from time to time the roar of cannon from the direction of Zee brugge. Also they are often witness

IAGG|ES COMPLETE SUCCESSFUL SEASON Close Season With Win Over COrnerSville Eleven-LOSt
 Only Two Games

Athens November 26.-( Especial 1.-The
 Eighth District Agricultural school won
 it's last game of the season on the local
 grounds today by defeating Cornersville
 Training school, Cornersville, Tenn, by
 the score of IA to 0. The Aggies scored
 first after about five minutes of play in
 the first period. The visitors braced up
 and held the locals to a standstill dur
 ing the second quarter and also com
 pleted several passes for material gains,
 but the local defense frightened up when
 their goal was threatened and held the
 Tennesseans for downs on their 25-yard
 line.
 In the last quarter the Aggies received
 the ball on their 25-yard line, after an exchange of punts and on an off-tackle
 play tore of ia 25-yard gain. On the next play Grisham skirted left end for 40 yards On an open formation by use or triple lateral pass the Aggies carried the ball over for the second ana last touchdown of the game. Johnston picked his opening and planted the ball between the goal posts.
 The particular star of the game was Captain Steer Johnston, who carried | ter and off-tackle. His defensive work was unquestionably the best seen on lhe local grounds this season. O. Grisham and Seavey also played stellar game for the locals Fox and Park put up a splendid game for the visitors The Aggies have had a most successIui season, having won five and lost two or l the seven games played. They nave 1 played some of the strongest high schooi 1 teams in north Alabama and southerh ] Tennessee. At least six of the boys com
