And she amazing fea- ture of it all was that among the Germans there seemed to be no j jeeling of regret, no sense of shame +. . If Belgium wishes to keep alive in the minds of her people the recol- lection of German military barbar- | ism, if she desires to inculcate the coming generations with the horrors it she would perpetuate the memories of the in- nocent" townspeople who were slaughtered because. they were Bel- gians, then she can effectually do .it by preserving the ruins of Aerschol and Louvain, just as "the ruins of Pompeii are preserved. Fence . in these desolated cities;' leave the shattered doors and the broken fur- niture as they are; let the bullet marks and the bloodstains remain, and it will do more than all the ser- mons that ean De preached, than all the pictures that can be painted, than all the books that can be written, to drive home a realization of what is meant by that dreadful thing cal led War. "Several American correspondents, among them Richard Harding Davis, who were takem by train from Brus- sels to Germany, and who were held for some hours in the station at Louvain during the first night's mas- sacre, have vividly described the horrors which they witnessed from their car window. On the second day, Hugh 3S. Gibson, secretary of the American Legation at Brussels, accompanied by the Swedish and Mexican charges, drove over to Lou- vain in a taxicab. Mr. Gibson told me that the Germans had dragged chairs and a dining-table from a nearby house into the middle of the that 'some officers, already consider-| ably the worse for drink, insisted in a bottle qf wine. And this while! the city was burning and rifles were cracking and the dead bodies of! men and women lay sprawled in the! streets. From the windows plundered and fire-blackened houses in both Aerschet and Louvain and along the road between, hung white flagc made from: sheets and table cloths and pillow-cases -- pathetic appeals for the mercy which was not granted." A description of the German ar- my of invasion constitutes one of the best and most thrilling chapters in the hook: "Half a mile or so out of Sotte- ghews our ruad debouched into the great highway Which leads through Lille to Paris, and we suddenly fouud ourserves in the midst or vue German army.

For this service the world owes him a debt of gratitude. The beginning of the struggle in Belgium and the gallant defence of the Belgians are graphically told. The author's admiration for this gal- lant people, which he time and again proudly refers to, is assuredly shared by the world at large--with the €x- ception of Germany. The prepara- tions for the defence of their capital, Antwerp, were carried out with great thoroughness.

In many parts of the world I have seen many terrible and revolting ' talags, but nothing so ghastly, co Norrifying as Aerschot. Quite two-thirds of the houses had been burned and showed unmistak- soldiery before were burned. Everywhere were the ghastly evidences. Doors had been smashed in with rifle-butts and boot- heels; windows had been broken; furniture had been wantonly destroy- ed; pictures nad been torn from the walls; mattresses had been ripped open with bayonets in search of val- uables; drawers had been emptled upon the floore; the outer walls of the houses were spattered with blood and pock-marked with bullets; the sidewalks were slippery with broken wine bottles; the streets were strewn no one to us the details of that orgy of blood and lust. The story was so plajnly written that anyone could read it. . . The Ger mans went about the work of house- burning as systematically ad they did everything else. . .. .
