This is the sixth installment o Mr. Gtbson's diary of his observations of the war to be published in the Post-Dispatch.

There are quantities of Germans who have lived here all their lives, who are real- ly more Belgian than German, have no interest in the present conflict and are threatened with financial ruin if apretty hard on them if they a few of the many, effects of the war. It is not any they are to be obliged to get out, many thousands who are suffering indirectly ‘asicr for the manufacturers in the neigh- interests here, and it 1s but they are onl+ the leave their from borhood of Liege, who will see the work of many years wiped out by the pres- ent hostilities. Some inspired idiot inserted in the papers vesterday the news that the legation was attending to the repatriation of German subjects and the consequence is that our hallways have been jammed with Germans all day, making uncouth noises and trying to argue with us as to whether or not we are in charge of German interests. enough for them. that the celebration of Kaisergeburtstag until This morning a large, badly fright- ened darkey came in looking for a passport. He awaited his turn very quietly, and grew visibly more and I suppose more apprehensive at the long series, of questions asked of the people ahead of him. When he moved up to the desk, the first question was: “Where do you want to go?” “Jes as fur as the stature of Lib- buty.”’ “Are you an American citizen?” “Me? $Lawd bless yuh! No, I ain’t huthin’ but a plain ole Baltimoh coon.” . Then thev gave blank to fill out. tions on it was: “Why do you desire to the United States?” Without any hesitation he wrote: “T am very much interested in my home at the present time.’ Everybody here is intensely curious as to what has become of the Brit- ish army; the most generally ac- cepted story is that troops have been landed at Calais, Dunkirk and Os- tend, but although this is generally believed, there seems to be no offi- cial confirmation of it. Everyone seems to take it for granted that the British will turn up in good form when the right time comes, and that when they do turn up it will have a him the usual One of the ques- return to good effect. If they can get to the seene of hostilities without every- body knowing about it, it increases by just so much their chances of success and anyone that knows anything at all is keeping mum and hoping that no British soldier will stumble over a chair and make a noise and give away the line of march. Our letters from London indicate intense satisfaction with the = ap- and confi- maximum at his pointment of Kitchener dence that he will get a of service out of the forces command. We have been looking from one moment to another for news of a big naval engagement, but suppose the British navy is somewhere wait- ing for a chance to strike. Col. Fairholme, the British mili- tary attache, has made a number of trips to the front and reports that the morale of the Belgian troops is excellent, thut the -organization moving like clockwork, and, as he expresses it, that “every man has his tail up.” | This evening I went over to the British legation to see the Colonel! and learn whatever news he |. had that he could give me. There was a great scurrying of servants and the porter was not to be found in the chancery. The door to Grant-Wat- son's room was ajar, so I tapped, and, on being bade in a gruff voice to “Come in,” walked into the pres- ence of a British officer in field uni- form, writing at Webber's desk. He was dusty and unshaven, and had evidently come in from a long ride. Il promptly backed out with apolo- gies and was hustled out of the place by Kidston, who came running out from the Minister's office. I asked him if the rest of the army was hidden about the chancery, and his only reply was to tell me to run along and find the navy, which they | themselves had not been able to lo- cate. They evidently have all they need to know about the where- ubouts of the army, but have suc- ceeded in keeping it dark. ©.

I shall go around tomorrow and rub it in on the Gardes Civiques. The question of passes has changed and made more strict day, and has got to be a sort of joke. I first used my eard, that was de- clared insufficient almost from the first! Then I tried my permis de cir- culation, which was issued to allow me to get into the railway stations without paying. That was good for a day or so. Then I tried my pass- port (as a bearer of dispatches), and that got me through once or twice Then the Minister for Foreign Af- fairs gave me his personal card with a laisser-passer in his own hand, but that was soon turned down on the groupd that the military authori- ties are in control and the civil au- thorities cannot grant passes.

Is Football Divided Into Four Quart -BILUKENS OPPOSE. TRONGEST ELEVEN ON 1917 SCHEDULE Marquette Team, Here Today, ‘Ranks Close to Wisconsin Uni- | versity in Strength. | YEATMAN FACES CENTRAL High School Feature Is Expected | to Result in Hard-Fought Contest. Coach C. M. Rademacher's § St. Louls University eleven will this. afternoon face its strongest rival of | the season to date, when Marquette U. of Milwaukee is met at Handlan’s Park. Marquette, this year, ts claim- ing the Wisconsin title over Wiscon- sin University, having beaten Beloit | by a larger score than the Badgers. Coach Ryan who is here in charge | of the visitors, will today be minus one of his brightest stars, Chocoine, a | back, who is unable to get into the. mame because of the freshman rule, which came very close to bringing | on a storm between the two schools and forcing the cancellation of the | contest. Tt was only vesterday morning | whem the local officials stepped down | ‘and yielded a point to Marquette that. the battle was made possible. Last | season, when Earl Painter coached | the Billikens, they went to Milwau- | kee, and were walloped 66—0. Billikens Outweigh Rivals. | Coach Rademacher's blue and white | charges will have a weight advantage, | averaging 175 pounds, while the vis- | ters will tip the beam at 160. These two weight estimates should be quali- | fied. St. Louis U. may be heavier if either Leffler or Meinhart plays at right guard in place of the 155-pound | Cuthbertson. Then it must be ac- | knowledged that the Marquette beef- | age is lowered in that Beutler, a 126 | plaver, will be stationed at right half- back, The biggest edge that the local team will have in the weight | will be at center. Here Kotkis, who ig over six feet tall, and weighs 198 pounds, will be pitted against Purcell, 155 pounds, and 6 feet 9 inches tall. The. line-up and weights are as fol- lows: Billiken Lineup Changed. The Billikens today will present an- | other changed lineup over that used, im previous clashes. In an effort to. land a capable wing man, Rademacher has shifted Bonacci from tackle to. right end. Gleason will play at the other wing position. St. Louis will outweigh the visitors by about 15 pounds to the man, ac- cording to figures given out by the rival coaches. However, Marquette will have the edge in. experience. The probable lineup and weights: Ft. Louls U. (Wrt.) Gleeson (165) the Postition (Wt.) Marquette Left end (170) Faye | Strubinger (175)...Left tackle...(180) Hanley | Signaigo (175) Left guard....(175) Marek | Kotkis (198).......

With McKinley having an open date the feature game of the Interscholas- tic League double header at High School fleld will be that between Yeat- man and Central. The North Siders started off last week by walloping Cleveland, 46 to 7, while Central was being downed by McKinley. , Today’s contest, however, is ex-| pected to be hard fought, as several | of the Mid-City regulars, who were | unable to play last week because of | injuries will be back in the running. | Soldan Should Win. In the other clash, Soldan opposes | the Cleveland High eleven. Coach) Matthews of the South Side aggrega- tton has made several changes in his lineup during the week, and looks for an improvement in the teams’ play. Soldan, in its only battle to date, was heaten by McKinley, while both Cen- | tral and Yeatman defeated Cleveland. Webster Faces Jeff. City. Another high school battle that! promises to be interesting is that be- tween Webster and Jefferson City, acheduled to be decided on the Web- ater campus this afternoon. Little is known of the Jeff City aggregation. They own a fairly strong team each season though. a SHANLEY MAY RETURN TO PIKEWAY TEAM NEXT WEEK Piker followers were rejoicing this morning when it became Known that “Tex” Shanley, who was one of the real stars of last year’s football eleven at fullback, is trying to ar- range his business affairs so he may enter Washington University and re- port for football work next week. Hie was one of the fastest men on the team last year, tearing off big tzins in almost all the games played by the Pikers. Shanley claims he is in shape and ready to play now with . few days in which to acquaint him- eelf with Mutherford's style of play. Iie wants to get in the Thanksgiving div game against the Billikens, as he believes the Pikers have better than an even chance to win the affair. en KEEN KUTTERS IN GAME The Keen Kutters, champions of the Municipal Soccer League, will rneet the Eden Seminary eleven at the Fairgrounds thig afternoon at 3 o'clock. An attempt is being made to revive the Saturday afternoon league as @ part of the Municipal or- ganization and other teams are be- ing sought.

T HE German Government has stolen American inventions of great value in war and used them for three years w:thout compensation to the owners, We deal with such property in another way. Our Government, about to permit manu- facturers here to use thousands of de- | Vices and formulas covered by patents owned in Germany, will require a strict /accounting from all to whom licenses are granted, and there will be payment to the foreign inventors after the war. There is abundant proof of the theft in the results of the inspection of the German submarine now on exhibition in this city. Of the many inventions and formulas which are affected by the new license reg- ulations of the Federal Trade Commis- sion, those relating to dyestuffs and drugs or médicines are the most useful but the assertion that the dye patents are of “vital lrapertance” to our manufacturers is not warranted by the facts. We have built up a great dyestuffs industry without their —— aid, but they will broaden the field and © variety of products, Many of the drug | formulas, however, are greatly needed, — Our supply of certain patented remedies and anesthetics is very small, and the prices of some have been multiplied by 10, partly for the reason that the patents have not been infringed or stolen. There will be all the safeguards that the German owners could suggest. Money to pay for the use of their property will be collected and held by our Government. But after the war there will be a just claim against the fund in behalf of the defrauded owners of submarine patents. This claim will not be a small one, and it should be satisfied before German owners receive any hatt of the fund. healt aslo traer Ale steepest ehondooracteunan ent eanat ak eeet ett % = . e SOIT HL rome a, ae a Favors New Fractional Coins.

So we have it—Homekind. Home, mother and child; that which appeals to the best in man; an antidote for hatred. In my ‘‘School of Mundane Philosophy’’ I would turn loose a senti- ment wrapped in this, one word—‘‘Homekind’’— which might end the’ world war and bring back to Mother Earth and her son — man— peace, goodwill and love, root out pride, selfishness and ‘‘vaulting ambitions;’’ for, if this be not done soon, I fear that all the best part of man’s nature will be destroyed and cruel, modernized savagery will send us back to the Dark Ages. I would enroll as pupils in my School of Mundane Philosophy all the people on my right, on my left, in front, in the rear, above (in the air), beneath (under the sea), and say to this great throng: ‘‘We are of the earth, and we are earthy.’’ ‘‘Presume not God to scan—the proper study for man IS MAN.’’ When we have made life pleasant and agreeable on earth we may speculate about the future to better ad- vantage. Analyze the word, Homekind; it is full of tender meaning. Pronounce it Ho-me-kind or Home-kind, or change ends with it and you have kind home. Start ‘‘Homekind’’ on its way around the earth, in Ahe press, in story, in song, and may it grow in grace and gather sufficient force to kill that deadly poison —hatred—which threatens the life of mankind, and bring peace to a bleeding, crying, dying world. We will be merciful to little Fritz and to flaxenhaired Gretchen.
