Another fell near the Town Hall, others in the Rues Pierre and Nieu- port, and also near the arsenal. Two fell in the suburbs of Rosen- daal on a jute factory. The dis- tricts of Coudekeque and of Fumes also suffered, and many were wounded there. One child had an arm blown off, while another with an old Woman was killed outright, being dreadfully disfigured. The bombs were filled with shrapnel, which pitted the walls and build- ings.

He could obey blindly, or wilfully disobey-that to the ordi- nary man would have been the ter- rible alternative. But our general had a Frenchman's keen judgement as well as a soldier's heroism. He found a middle and a noble way. In .spite of his staff‘s restraining ads vice, he insisted on advancing him- self alone through the zone of fire. “If I win through uasctsthed," he said, "my brigade can follow. If not, my orders are that they remain whorn they are." He adsaneed and tell riddled with bullets. He had saved honor and his brigade. Germans Contiseate Implements Used to Ivoid Their Censorship.

GERMAN “ “PACK GBMES ft GR "Our troops," the Grand Duke reports, "by an impetuous counter- attack slaughtered with their bayo- nets all of the enemy with the ex- ception of a few, who were made prisoner. In this engagement we captured German machine guns and inflicted enormous losses on the enemy, who brought into action successively regiments from divers army corps." At Inulodz. on the Piliea 65 miles south of Warsaw, the Russians stormed and occupied some Ger- man trenches. Further muth the Germans, after a long cannonade, made an infantry assault. which was repulsed by the Russian artil- iery, excepting at one point, where the enemy secured an entrenched punition. Later he was dislodged and thrown out of this ground by a Russian counter-attack. A despatch from London saysi Success for the Russians in a sum guimry engagement on the Burk: River 40 miles tsouth-west of War- saw at Bolimow, where the Ger- man: made a desperate effort to resume the offensive, is reported in an ofheia) communication from the headquarters of Grand Duke Nicho- las.

Many Lrthirtt Intended for Soldiers Abroad arr ImuttBeieatty Prepaid. It is found that a number of let- ters, post-cards, packets and other articles of mail addressed for de- livery in England. and on the Conti- nent, more particularly for mem- hers of the expeditionary force, are received at the General Post-office intMrciently prepaid. Mail matter addressed to Cami- dian soldiers in France or else- “here on the Continent must be fully prepaid at the usual postal union rates, which for letters is five cents for the first ounce. and three cents for each additional ounce. In cases where the senders of letters or newspapers or other articles of mail matter do not know whether the trddrees:ee is in England or abroad. the only way in which they can be sure of it being fully pre- paid is to pay the postal union rates on it. This is for the reason that it is impossible to collect any sur- charges placed on an item of mail matter from the addressee if on ae- tive service. As to the rate of postage for par- cels addressed to the soldiers now at Salisbury Plains, or in active sorvicc. enquiry should be made at the General Post-city or onv of the portal stations. All insufficiently prepaid letters, post-cards and packets addressed to the British expeditionary force awning on the Continent will be returned to the senders.

The character of the artillery dis. closed in the war, from the ma- chine gun to the great siege mun tars, has introduced laigc-ly new methods of warfare, and the stra- tegy of the campaigns is a subject gaining rapidly in public interest as people begin to realize how meaningless, although thrilling. isolated engagements are in the present confliot, and that the re- sult is not likely to be settled in any single battle. The subject of strategy in this war is entertaining- ly analyzed for the genertslynde.r- standing by a. high authority in military matters in a. series of arti- cles appearing in the &iuttifie American, and in the special wa.r i’ue he writes as follows in re- gard te.artiueryt " _.. The big development of this war has been the great improvement in artillery and id the supply service. Indeed, it is well named a machine- made war. Like any other machin- 'ery the new highly developed types require fewer men, yet accomplish equal of tyenita.ter results. . , Especially is "this the case with the German machine gun, or auto- matic ritiairtU) jhu be'en quoted so often in tht4eawstclyss. “It Ire? The Germans have these guns posted an as to cover the ground over which attacks will probably he made. When the signal is received from the observing station that the enemy has rearhcd the danger zone the gun that covers this part of the front can then turn loose a storm of bullets that will wipe out any troops in its path.

Its fire, for short periods at the rate of fiv) shots a second gives it great value,' in stopping charges or in shooting- up any bodies of the enemy that expose tihemyrlves. Besides the advantage in ma- chine guns, the Germans have so far had an additional advantage in that their trinch siege guns could untrange most of the held guns of the French and British. But. such equipment wears out rapidly in ser- vice; the bores get worn and the shooting is inaccurate; guns are captured; many are broken or des- troyed. It is doubtful whether Gey- many can replace this great drain upon her equipment in spite of her great ordnance factories. The al- lies, on the other hand, have not, only their own gun works, which are working night and day, but they also are calling an must of the arms and amunition factories of the vwrld to aidain increasing their me- chanical fighting equipment.

With that Germany there is no quarrel; towards that Ger- many there is no animosity. But in selfdefence, in line with every conclusion of logical thought and by virtue of every instinct and in- tuition of human sight, the nations were compelled to take up arms to crush Prussian militarism. And they must remain in arms. at what- ever cost, until that dragon is crushed. , "None dare say that the real, deep soul of Germany revealod it- self when the wheels of the ruthless machine rolled over Belgium and left its ghastly trail of crushed and rent humanity; or when the chaste and rich beauty of Rheims Cathe- dral, that symphony in stone, was battered to duet; or when the rules of civilized warfare were abandon- ed and quiet British seaside resorts and hply shrinet,wtre shelled wWich- um. m.” _r___e_e'e- ,, __ out the prescribed notice. These were the deeds of A Blood-Drunk Caste, that by a pseudo-patriotism had ha.rnemsed a noble race to its char- iot. The same nations of the world cannot, must not, halt until the mil- itaristic ogre is shorn of its power and the real soul of Germany is re- stored to its rights. Great Britain, France, Belgium, and Russia are now fighting, not for themselves alone, but for the redemption of the Germany that all men honor from the military caste that man- kind abhors. "On the East, on the South and on the West the blood-lust leaders have flung their deluded millions upon unbending lines of steel. ttIto'- tyrs to the trrorifittion of Mars. Slowly but irresistibly that index- ible line is closing in upon the deci- mated ranks of the deluded. And all because the blood-drunk mili- tarists are too proud and too fear- ful of their feudal tenure to ac- knowledge that the fighting machine has failed. The Kaiser knows it. and the knowledge has sickened him. All the world knows it, but the holocaust must go on if only on the osmbler', chance of saving the prestige of thecaste in a desperate defensive struggle. If the real Ger- man people realized the truth as everyone else realizes it, a new and glorious democracy would rise out of the ashes of the old Prussian out a? the a despotism." Throughout the campaign the French artillery have shown the greatest brilliance and resource. On one occasion a German battery was so cleverly concealed that the F tench battery which it was shell- ing was unable to find the range. For many hours this state of " fairs continued, until at last a Ger- man shell buried itself in the ground without exploding. The officer in command of the French battery at once dug up the shell. calmly taking the great risk of the shell exploding at any minute. He examined the time fuse, and then set his own ac- cordingly. Within half an hour the German battery was silenced. '%o you send your wife to, the mountains for three months every summer.
