kier region held by German cavalry wolumns. i Cavalry Moves Eastward. j "German cavalry is moving eastWard toward the Ourthe valley. "The French retreat from Muelhausen in Alsace was well carried out tin face of the fact that the opposing Jorces in proportion is four Germans to every Frenchman. "The German field artillery proved lar Inferior to that of the French and the shrapnel seemed only indifferently well aimed." The Exchange Telegraph company
today announced the receipt of a telegram from its Brussels correspondent
eaying that the right wing of the Ger
man army in Belgium was completely
routed in battle with the Belgians
Nearly the whole German force was cut to pieces, the telegram said, the survivors being pursued by Belgian
cavalry.
' At the same time the Exchange Telegraph company stated that the
following official announcement had
been issued by the Belgian war office
In Brussels:
"After passing the night in the position they had taken up following Tuesday's retreat, the Germans were renorted in considerable numbers to
!be massing opposite one of our po
sitions which they believed to be weak. The Belgian general staff was
, made fully aware of this movement by iBelgian cavalry men, who had made a
reconnaisance of the enemy's position 12,000 Men Take Part.
; "Twelve thousand men took part in
la pitched battle which is as the com
jmencement of the greater engagement
'which is yet to come.
It was pointed out as significant ,that Belgium war office failed to say jthat the Germans were routed or partfly cut to pieces. The fight referred
to in tne lieigium war ottice statement was unquestionably the conflict at Hasselt. I These announcements show that the
Germans had made rapid progress through the hostile country, having reached the very heart of the interior. National interest in the British Isles was centered upon conflict In Belgium, where British soldiers are engaged, although hostilities are in progress for about 250 miles all along the eastern border of France.
Germans Invade Interior. The encounter near Hasselt shows that the advance troops of the German army in Belgium have penetrated to a point within 55 miles of Antwerp, which would give the Germans a port on the North Sea much nearer to the English Channel than any on the German coast. The fighting at Hasselt is only a email part of the general conflict which is promised on a great battlefield, taking more than three hundred square miles in central Belgium. This extends from Louvain, where the headquarters of the Belgian army is located eastward to a point nearly touching the Dutch frontier, thence southward to Verviers, thence westward to Namur at juncture of the Sambre and Meuse rivers. In the center of this quadrangle is Liege with it's ring of forts. The strongest aggregation of the great German army in Belgium and Luxemburg is the center and left wing which contain approximately four hundred thousand men with artillery (according to the military expert of The London Times) and which is reported to be advancing slowly but steadily westward. British government military men believe three or four days, and maybe longer, will elapse before the terrific engagement, with it's endless hosts of armed terminates in victory for one side or the other. It indicates that this will be one of the greatest battles in the world's history. Disprove Early Reports. Dispatches gathered from various sources evince the apparent falsity of earlier advices from Brussels that the Belgian troops and their allies had driven all the German soldiers out of Belgium territory lying south of the Meuse. There is apparently ground for belief that a big naval 'engagement is imminent. Colonel Repington, the London Times military expert says: "We are on the eve of a great struggle on the Meuse. Surrounded, as she is, by powerful enemies, a great victory is necessary for Germany at this moment. Will she strike by sea when she strikes by land? That is the only blow open to Germany which can do us moral hurt if it succeeds. The chances are against success, and with every day of the war, uk ia. ghaarg bacomaa less, because

OBSERVER EXPLAINS IDEAS EUROPE HOLDS ABOUT WAR
BY OB8ERVER. Two years ago General Frederick Von Bernhardt wrote a book on "Germany and the Next War." The following resume of his chapter on "The Right to Make War" will give the readers an accurate conception of the point of view of the German militarist. "Man is a fighter. The right of conquest is universally acknowledged. It has always been the weary, spiritless and exhaustless ages which have played with the dream of perpetual peace." The General buttresses his arguments by an appeal to the law of evolution. "War is a biological necessity of the first importance. Contest is the law of life. War eliminates the unfit among nations just as the struggle for survival eliminates the unfit among individuals. If the race is to progress, the national units which compose it must continually struggle among each other in order to avoid lapsing into stagnation or decadence. Progress Demands War. Even moral progress demands war. "Those intellectual and moral factors which insure superiority in war are also those which render , possible a general progressive development." Peace is a desirable ideal within a nation itself but that it can ever be possible between nations the General considers absurd. "Above the rivalry of individuals and groups within the
state' he 'writes, "stands the law whichttakes care that injustice is kept within bounds and - that right shall prevail. But there is no impartial power that stands above the rivalry of states to restrain injustice. Between states the only check on injustice is force." But is there no universal law of equity to which quarreling nations may turn? Not so, replies the General. "Might is at once the supreme right and the dispute as to what is right is determined by the arbitrament of war." But all this talk about right and wrong has no relevancy to the subject of war among nations, declares Bernhardie. In some cases nations have gone to war because of the jealousy or the ambitions of their rulers. But, as a rule, nations go to war because they cannot avoid it and escape extinction. This inevitable necessity for war he compacts into a single paragraph: Need to Expand. "Strong, healthy and flourishing nations Increase in numbers. From a given number, they require a continual expansion "of their frontiers. They require new territory for the accommodation of their surplus population. Since almost every part of the globe is inhabited, new territory must, as a rule, be obtained at the cost of its possessors that is to say by conquest
which thus becomes a law of necessity." He claims for any nation no longer able to supply means of support for its people the right to seoure foreign trade by conquest. He argues that any nation unable to protect Its holdings dees .not have the right -to keep them. Alongside this economic justification of war is placed the claim to its moral and spiritual justification. "As human life Is now constituted, it is political idealism which calls for war while materialism in theory at least repudiates It." In support of this contention he quotes Kuno Fischer: "Wars are terrible but necessary for they save the state from social putrefaction and stagnation." To Moral Combat. Even Christianity is called upon to support this thesis: "Christian moral
ity is personal and. social and in its nature cannot be political. There never was a religion which was more combative than Christianity. ' Combat, moral combat, is its very essence. "The efforts directed towards the abolition of war must not only be termed foolish but absolutely Immoral and must be stigmatized as unworthy of the human race. God will see to it that war always recurs as a drastic medicine for human society." This book has had wide circulation in Germany and has been heartily endorsed by the authorities. Similar books have had an equal circulation in other European countries. It is such literature as this that partly explains the universality of the military spirit among European peoples. How far removed our own political ideals are from those of Europe may be pretty accurately measured by the revulsion felt by the typical American citizen in the presence of such arguments as those of General Bernhardi.

L PUTS END
TO OLYMPIC GAMES
Zuber Sees Suspension of International Sporting Events of All Kinds. BY C. H. ZUBER. CINCINNATI, O., Aug. 13. It looks like a case of "Farewell, Irene," so far as the international Olympic games of 1916 are concerned. These contests were to have been held in Berlin; but with Germany fighting Great Britain, France and Russia, three of the foremost contenders in previous meets, and with Greece, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Italy doing things that do not please Germany, there seems to be no one on good terms with the kaiser but the United States and Austria and these, with Germany, will hardly go In for the big show without the others. No matter how soon the war ends, the wounds inflicted will not be sufficiently .healed by 1916 to make it pleasant for any of the belligerent nations to send athletes to Berlin. While the races for the America's cup have not yet been declared off officially, there is no doubt that there will be nothing .doing in yachting circles between Sir Thomas Lip ton's Shamrock IV. and the American sailing vessel selected to defend the cup. The Shamrock has arrived at Bermuda, after a scary voyage from the Azores, reports of the close proximity of German cruisers keeping the offi
cers of the Shamrock and her tender, the Erin.. In a constant stew. The Shamrock probably will remain at Bermuda until the war Is over, having the protection of the navy as well as the British military there. Freddie Welsh, the new lightweight champion, is preparing to make a quick get-away from England, where the fistic fighting game has gone to pot. , It is expected that Welsh will arrive 'in this country within a month, and that he wflj be kept extremely busy during his visit here. One of his early engagements will be a tenround sprint with Willie Ritchie, erstwhile title holder, to be followed with a longer bout with Ritchie. Charley White, Joe Rivers, Joe Mandot, Ad Woigast. Milburn Saylor and Pal Brown are others who want a whack at Welsh when he comes over and will probably get it.
Among the nine provinces of the dominion of Canada, Ontario is exceeded in size only by Quebec, which forms its boundry on the east. In the southeast the province extends to within fifty miles of theclty of Montreal.
RICHMOND FOLKS ASTONISH DRUGGIST We sell many good medicines but we are told the mixture of buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc., known as Adler-i-ka, is the best we ever sold. Richmond folks astonish us daily by telling how QUICKLY Adler-i-ka relieves sour stomach, gas on the stomach and constipation. Many report that A SINGLE DOSE relieves these troubles almost IMMEDIATELY. We are glad we are Richmond agents for Adler-i-ka. Clem Thistlethwalte. (Advertisement)

our forces are daily growing in numbers and solidity. We must regard the problem through the German eye, however, much we may disbelieve in the German solution, we must be prepared for a stroke which would accord with the German theory of war." A telegram from Amsterdam says that Germans are throwing up barricades along the Meuse between Maestricht and Liege, evidently to prevent the allies from getting in the German rear, and cutting off communication and supplies.
The gold fields of western Australia are the largest known. They cover 224,400 square miles.
IOWA WOMAN TELLS OTHERS How Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Carried Her Safely Through Change of Life. Cedar Rapids, Iowa. "At the Change of Life the doctor said I would have to
give up my work and take my bed for some time as there was no help for me but to lie still. I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and kept up my work and now I am over the Change and that is all I took. It was better for me than
all the doctor's medicines I tried. Many people have no faith in patent medicines but I know this is good." Mrs. E. J. Rickets, 354 8th Avenue, West; Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches.backaches,dread of impending evil, timidity, sounds in the ears, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipation, variable appetite, weakness and inquietude, and dizziness, are promptly heeded by intelligent women who are approaching the period in life when woman's great change may be expected. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound invigorates and strengthens the female organism and builds up the weakened nervous system. It has carried many women safely through this crisis.
