London, Oc¢i. 14.~The Daily Chron- icle's correspondent at Roosendaal, Edgar Rowan, says that when it be- came known that the Germans ' were about to occupy Ghent, the whole population, gome 200,000 persons," fled to Sas van Ghent in Dutch territory, where there have been some remark- able scenes, "Wealthy people," he says, "arrived in their carriages and motors with all the valuables - they could save. The poor came on foot and on cycles, many pushing wheel-harrows, and all staggering under the weight of bun- dlég of household goods. It is a seri- ous position for Sas van Ghent, is al- ready overcrowded, and food must be rushed there from distant parts of Holland as the towns near it are in the same plight, being overrun with arm- ies of . refugees."

Captain's Diary Gives Some Idea of What Britons May Expect. At the battle of Tsushima, when the Japanese destroyed the Russian fleet, Captain Semendff was on thé flagship Suvoroff. He had no definite post, and took notes until the sink- Ang of the vessel. Extracts from his story are as fellows: "The first shells flew over us; At! this range some of the long ones | turned a complete somersault, and could be clearly seen with the naked eye curving like so many sticks thrown in the air. They flew over us, making a sort of wall, different to the ordinary roar. "After them came others short of us ~-- mearer and nearer. - Splinters whistled through the atr, Jingled against the side and superstructure, Then, quite close and abreast the foremost funnel, rose a gigantie pil- lar of smoke, water, and flame. 1 a the fore-bridge. "Shells seemed to be pouring upon us incessantly, one after another, It seemed as if these were mines, nol shells, which were striking the ship's side and falling on the deck. They burst as soon as they touched any- thing--the moment they encountered the least impediment in their flight, Handrails, funnel-guys, topping lifts of the boats' derricks, were quite suf. ficlent to cause a thoroughly efficient burst, "The steel plates and superstruc. tures on the upper deck were tora to pieces, and the splinters caused many casualties. Iron ladders were crum- pled up into rings, and guns were lit erally hurled from their mountings. "In addition to this, there was the unusual high temperature and liquid flame of the explosion, which seemed to spread over everything. I actually watched a steel plate catch fire from a burst, Of course, the steel did not burn, but the paint on it did. "Such almost non-combustible ma- terials as hammocks, and rows of boxes, drenched with water, flared up in a moment, At times it was im- possible to see anything with glasses, owing to everything being so distort. ed with the quivering, heated air. "A man reported that the after- turret had been blown up, and al- most simultaneously there resounded above us a rumbling noise, aceom- panied by the sharp clang of faMing fron. Something large and heavy fell with a crash; the ship's boats on the spar-deck were smashed to bits; burning debris fell all around us, and we were enveloped in an impenetra- ble smoke. "The fore-bridge was struck by numerous projectiles. Splinters of shells, which penetrated in large quantities under the mushroom-shap- ed roof of the conning-tower, had de- stroyed all the instruments in it, and had broken the compass, but luckily the telegraph to one engine and the voice-tube to the other were still working." The Wicked Hadn't Come. Lady Cardigan is very well known as a teller of good stories. One of them relates to an incident that bap- pened a good many years ago when she was staying with Lord and Lady Wilton at Melton Mowbray. The then Lord Wilton, for various rea- sons, had galned the title among his tenantry of "The Wicked Earl"---in fact, few of the country people ever called him anything else, One Sunday Lady Cardigan and Lady Wilton went to church, unac- companied by his lordship, who us- ually was a very regular attendant. Lady Cardigan saw the verger look at them curiously as they enfered that Lord Wilton was not with them, but she was scarcely prepared for what followed. It 'was the custom in the church to begin the service omly after ' Lord Wilton and his party had arrived, | but a new clergyman who was con-| ducting the service that day was not aware of this, and he duly commenc- ed:-- "When the wicked man' 'He's not come yet!" the verger promptly interrupted In an agitated whisper.~Pearson's. Friendly Advice. The British Royal Yacht Squadron is the mdst,exclusive club in the world, and there is a story that re- lates to an undesirable member who, somehow or other, mabaged to get elected into the club. The members wanted the eletdion eancelled, and the only way out of the difficulty was to persuade the unpopular mem- ber to resign, 'The secretary, as tactfully as possible, offered him a substantial sum of money if he would withdraw his membership. The mem- ber was furious, ahd bounced off to complain to one-of the committee, "I have been grossly insulted by the secretary of this club,' he roared. "He bas offered me a sum of money Misuse tor RUBLY Join adont.

During the hot season in India-- | April to October--the wives and chil- ren of "British soldiers are sent to o | Bill stations to escape 'the terrible . heat of the plains. One of these hill | stations is Mount Abu, Rajputana-- {really a small sanitarium. Native i superstition has it that the sanitar- ium is built "en the horas of a cow" and if beef be brought to the station their gods will -be insulted and will cause an earthquake. Certain native superstitions must be respected by British authorities, so the inhabitants have to be confent with mutton. Mut | ton for six months! Even beef ex- | tract cannot be obtained there.
