PLAIN DUTCH WORDS
TO UNITED STATES
A despatch. from Amsterdam says:
—A demand for the stoppage' of sub-
marine warfare, coupled with an ap-
peal to the United !States to take the
initiative toward that end, is voiced by
the Telegraaf. The Telegraaf says;
"Ten days have elapsed since the
submarine war was carried to the door
of America and nothing, has been clone.
Are we to understand that our ships
are allowed to be torpedoed right on
the American coast? We say in all
frankness to America that submarine
War must be stopped and Germany
must be told that mistakes, which all
the world knows are no mistakes, will
no longer be tolerated. Let America
speak the redeeming word lest slie
rue deeply in the future ]'laving neg-
lected a task plainly to be expected."
GERMANS FRIGHTENED
BY LOSS OF BREMEN
An Exchange Telegraph Company
despatch to London from Amsterdam
says that a telegram received there
from Bremen confirms the report that
the German Ocean Navigation Com-
pany has received no news from the
commercial submarine Bremen and
that she is regarded as lost. Great,
anxiety prevails among the families
of the crew, virtually all of who re-
side in Bremen, and it is expected dif-
ficulty will be experienced in obtaining
crews for other commercial submar-
ines which may undertalte trans-At-
lantic voyages. According to this
formation, the sailing of the Deutsch-
land on another voyage across the At
lanbic has beers cancelled.
FALKENEAYN RETIRES

A despatch from Rome says: Field
Marshal von Falkenhayn, former chief
of general staff of the German army,
has been wounded in the leg and com-
pelled to relinquish command of the
Austro -German arinies in TransyI-
vania, said a Zurich despatch to the
Corriere D'Italia on Friday.

Government Decree Extends to Lights in Streets,
and Cafes.
A despatch from Rome says: A
Government decree issued on Friday
orders that all street lights and also
lights in stores, hotels and cafes be
dimmed at 10.30 o'clock in the evert-
ing. This is another measure in the
continuation of the energetic move-
ment to force national. economy, the
first measure having been the raising
of the price of sugar to 25c a pound
and also prohibiting its sale for the
manufacture of candies or other
sweets.
„The Government is also nialcing a
campaign against speculatorsin food-
stuffs and wearing apparel. A semi -
official warning has been published,
saying that peace is yet distant and
that any merchant making a. big pro-
fit from his goods at the present mo-
ment is
omentis a traitor to his country.
Men's, women's, and children's:
shoes are selling at from $6 to $9 per
pair, and woollen and other'. articles
have doubled in price. roods pro-
'duced in Italy, of which the exporta-
tion is prohibited, are in the hand's of
speculators. Eggs have disappeared
from the markets, It is estimated
that millions of eggs are stored in
Rome. Noeggs have been'sold in the
city during the past week.
THE EDUCATION
OF OFFICERS
SEVERE TRAINING AT BRITISR
MILITARY COLLEGES.
Cadets Are Forced to do Eighteen
Months Work in Six
Months.
Training of cadets at Sandhurst
and Woolwich, is quite a different
matter from what is was in times of
peace. In pre-war days the shortest
time cadets spent before getting com-
missions was eighteen months. Now
the minimum is six months. And even
this period may be abbreviated if the
great army in the field calls for offi-
cers in a hurry. There are no vaca-
tions for cadets or instructors—noth-
ing but hustle, hustle, hustle.
As between the Royal Military Col-
lege et Sandhurst and the Royal Mili-
tary Academy at Woolwich, virtually
the only difference is that at the latter
establishment the engineers and artil-
lery are more thoroughly grounded in
the science appertaining to their par-
ticular branches of the service.
At Sandhurst, which, by the, way, is
an exceptionally gloomy barrack -like
building, situated in exceptionally
pleasant surroundings at Cumberley,
Surrey, there are usually several hun-
dred cadets, and they are organized in
companies on the same iasis as a bat-
talion of infantry.
Punishments for Cadets.
Specially selected officers of the
regular army act as company com-
manders. They have the power of in-
flicting certain punishments on the
cadets for breaches of cliscipline,•but
as the cadets are deemed to be gentle-
men and are designed for a career the
Primary duty of which is to lead man,
the company- commanders are expect-
ed to maintain discipline among them
by gaining their esteem and respect
rather than by punitive measures.
Rustication and the sentencing of•a
cadet to lose places in the list of suc-
cessful candidates for commissions
are the heaviest punishments for min-
or offences. Removal from the col-
lege is a punishment reserved for
more serious offences, but a cadet may
be "removed" for other than disciplin-
ary offences for any of the following
reasons: First, moral or physical un-
fitness; second, unsatisfactory pro-
gress in his studies or physical exer-
cises, and, third, if reported by the
commandant as not. likely to hecomo.
an efficient officer.
Expulsion is the gravest punish-
ment that may be inflicted, and is, na-
turally, inflicted only in extreme
eases. The name of an expelled cadet
is recorded at the War Office and is
made known to the First Lord of the
Admiralty, the Secretary of State for
India and the Civil Service Commis-
sioners, in order to prevent the ex-
pelled youth from subsequently enter-
ing the naval or military service or
home, colonial or Indian civil service.
' Modals Are Granted.
• To take seine of the disciplinary
and routine work off the shoulders of
the company commanders, who are
also instructors, promotion to non-
commissioned rank is granted to a
number of cachets in each company,
and one.cadet is given the rants of un-
der -officer. The latter acts as a sub-
altern to his company commander and
assists him greatly in maintaining
the general tone of the company. The
under-oflicer's job is much sought af-
ter, because it' carries with it a good
many Tittle privileges, as well as an
accession of dignity. 1
In order to encourage industry in'
study a medal is granted to each of
the two best qualified cadets of each
half -yearly batch, while a sword is be
stowed on the cadet considered to he'
the best qualified cachet of the year.
The principal subjects in which
practical as well as theoretical in-
struction is imparted to cadets at the
college are military field wos'k (forti-
fications, bridge building,demolitions,
etc.), tactics and typography (sketch-
ing, map reacting and, making, etc.).
In addition, drill, riding and gymnas-'
ties' are also taught.
The theoretical instruction is given
to thecadets in the'"hall of study,'•
as theschoolroom is termed. Practi-
cal demonstrations of all natters that
are dealt with theoretically are g:ivon
in another place.
Itisnot, of course, all discipline
and work at the college, for every
sort of healthy sport and recreation
is encouraged, and, as a matter of
fact, enforced, a certain extent.
Anything, however, in the shape of
gambling or extravagance is very
Sternly discountenanced; The rules
in this respect might, indeed, be said
to verge on the sanctimonious,. so
very stringent are they.
to be so is because a cadet who now
receives such circulars is under strict
injunction to report the fact, and ill
results thereby ensue to the tempters.
Extravagance also at one time held
a very gay reign at the college, but
was banished because of its bad moral
effects on the wealthy lads and be-
cause it made the positions of the
poorer cadets so embarrassing. Now
no cadet is allowed to even incur a
messing bill (over and above the or-
dinary charges of seventy-fivecents
a day, which the .Government pays)
of more than $15 a month, including
beer and wine, on which he may not
spend a greater sum than twenty-five
cents a day, without the sanction of
his company officer. This sanction is
given only on 'special occasionssuch
as for the purpose of entertaining a
guest.
Horses, ponies and dogs are not al-
lowed -to be kept by the cadets. Nor
are the embryo officers, much as
' sport is encouraged among them, per-
' mitted to ride at race meetings, play
'polo or hunt the game on the estate,
Afternoon .tea with each other is
i one "dissipation" which is allowed the
cadets, but nothing in the shape of in-
toxicating liquor is permitted to be
introduced into their rooms. Lights
:in rooms have to be turned out at
10.30 p.m. except on Saturdays and.
Sundays, when an extra hour's grace
is granted. Under -officers may, how-
ever, ]seep a light burning for an-
other hour.

A despatch from Paris says: Con-

of Nelyeselo, on the western and of
the Macedonian front, putting the
enemy to rout. In the engagement the.
Serbians captured severalgunsand

The official statement from Berlin
grudgingly refers to the Serbian ad-

clares that the forward movement has
been halted by the troops of the eon-,

Many women with disfigured complexions
never seem to think that they need an occasional cleansing

the liver becomes sluggish, and waste matter accumulates
