tTrcaties in Ink Violated,

' Kingdom Fights Against
Great Odds.
.ANTWERP, Sept. 1 (By Courier to Os
tend and Mall to Now York.
The little Belgian soldier who climbed
Into the compartment was dead tired! he
trailed his rifle behind lilm, threw himself
Into tha seat nnd fell round nsleep. Ho
wns ready to talk when he awoke nn
hour later.
"Teg. I was up all nlRht with Herman
prisoners," he said. "It was a bad Job.
There were enly sixteen ot us to handle
800 Germans. Wo had four boxcars, and
we put 15 prisoners In one end of tho
Xnr and 23 at tho other, and then four
of us with rifles sat guard by tho cardooi.
"Wo rode nvo hours that way, and I
xpected cverj minute that the wholo SO
Germans In the car would Jump on us
four and kill us. Four to 50; that's hcav
edds. But we have to do It. You Sue
thero nran't enough soldiers In Belgium
to do all the work, so c have to make
cut tho best we can."
That's tho plucky littlo Belgian soldier
all over. In the first place he's dlffetent
from most soldiers, because he li willing
to fight when ho knows he's going to
lose.
"We havo to mako out the best wo
can," Is his motto. In the second place.
ho'H a common sense little fellow. Kven
whlla he's fighting he's doing It coolly,
nnd thero Is no blind hatred in his heart
that causes him to waste nny effort. Ho
gets down to the why ami whereforo of
thlncs.
"I really folt sorry for those Gorman
prisoners," said a comrade of tho first
soldier. "They were all decent follows.
They told mo tliolr officers had tooled
them. They said the officers gave them
French money on tho German frontier
and then yelled to them: 'On to France"
They went on for three days and got to
Liege before they know they were In
Belslum instead of France.
" 'Wo didn't want to hurt Belgium,'
they told us, 'because we're from Alsara
Lorralnn ourselves '
"You sec," continued the logical littlo
Belgian, "it wasn't thPlr fault, so wp
couldn't be mad at them."
That is the Belgian idea cool logic.
Why did you fight the Germans? a
high Government official was asked
"Because civilization can't tlst with
out treaties and it Is the duty that a
nation owes to civilization to tight to the
death when written treaties are bioken,"
was tho reply. "It must be a rule among
nations that to break a treaty means to
right. The Germans broke the neutrality
with Belgium and wo had to fight."
"But did you xpect to whip tho Ger
mans?" "How could we? Wi knew that hordes
of Germans would follow tho first comers,
tut wa had no right to worry about who
jn."',! b whipped, all we had to do was
to rt!"' and we've done It tho best we
coul
It has been a cool-headed, lot'lcal mat
ter with the Beleians. from tho start.
Treaties aro made with Ink. thev're
broken with blood, and Just as naturally
and coolly as the Belgian diplomats used
Ink in signing the treaties with Germanv.
so the Belgian soldiers have used their
blood In trying to maintain the agreements.

During Winter Months,
LONDON. Sept 15.
Football and Its relations to tho war
continues to be the subject of earnest
discussion both in England and in Scot

Lord Roberts that ' this Is no time for

football managers h that u would b
unwise, rather than tho contrary to
abandon this scheduled winter sport.
J. McKenna. Liverpool, presided over
a. meeting of the management commit
tee of the English Football Leaguo In
London yesterday. At this great crisis
in the history of the British nation, he
aid. they desired to make the following
pnbllo pronouncement:
When scores of thousands have
pone, and scores of thousands must
follow, there will be millions of peo
ple who must remain behind, and
in other ways lend all pokniblo aid.
In considering the course to be
adopted with reference to our great
winter game, we are not unmindful
of tho days of deep torrow now with
us and yet to come, days whi-n th'i
dark clouds that surround u will
oppress and appall u To nt and

Any national sport which can mini
mize the grief, help the nation to
bear Its sorrows, relieve the ,pres
slon of continuous strain M save
the people at home from psnir and
undue depression, is a great national
asset which can render lasting srv
ice to tho people.
We, therefore, without the slightest
reservation appeal to the clubs, the
press and the publie that our great
winter game should pursue Its usual
course. Especially do we appeal to
the press thai the same prominence
and publicity should he given to the
reports of the game as of old

gratified to hear that several Uuhs and
their players had arranged to make p

funds. In some Instances percentages

They further recommended each club
to arrange for their players to undergo
