A Part* dispatch says the Cir-
cue de Paris, where the numoer
of Belgian refugees have grown
to 2,500, has taken on the aspect
of a human stable. The floors of
the wide foyers are covered v/ith
straw on which the homeless and
poverty-stricken people rest,
many in attitudes of dejection.
Red Cross nurses, priests, sold-
iers and doctors constantly min-
ister to their wants.
At the entrance to the hall a
large cask containing beer was
placed and a soldier apportioned
the beverage to a waiting line of
men and boys.

miles southeast of Darning, it

surrounded by a wall, of which,
however few traces remain.

are machinery, linen and cotton
cloths, leather, tobacco, sap anu
chickery. There are also oil
manufactures, dye and print
works, iron foundries and the
famous Schichau ship building
works for the construction of
war vessels, especially torpedo
boats. Elbing has excellent rail-
way facilities and is in steam-
boat communication with Dan-
zing and Konigsberg. Popula-
tion in 1900, 51,500. The town
suffered severely from religious
strife among its citizens and
from wars with Sweden, Poland
and Russia. In the final parti-
tion of Prussia it was annexed
to Russia in 1772, and after a
period of decline has again ris-
en to a thriving condition.

KAISER TRAVELS
IN SWELL SPECIAL
The “war train” which took
Kaiser Wilhelm to the front is
the last word in luxury, English-
men who lied from Germany and
returned to Ixmdon, declare. Ar-
rangements had been made to
keep the railway lines open for
this train, which was preceded
and followed by armored spec-
ials.
The Kaiser’s special, it is de-
clared, was constructed about
two years ago. It is fitted with
a dining salon, council salon and
sleeping quarters. Attached are
cars for the Kaiser’s horses and
motor cars.
A small tent is carried, which
the Kaiser may use if he wishes
to join his soldiers on the field,
but the train is always kept
handy.
HOW TWO QUEENS
VIEW THE WAR
Queen Wilhelmina took occas-
ion in connection with the cel-
ebration of her birthday to call
upon the Dutch to refrain from
spending any money in celebra-
tion.
“Utilize all of it in aiding the.
Red Cross, which is so heavily
overtaxed,’’ she said in a procla-
mation to the people.
An an indication of the in-
tensely bitter feeling against
the Germans, the Antwerp cor-
respondent says the Queen is
anxious to take a hand in the
defense of Belgium. Describ-
ing a conversation in which
King Albert told the Prime Min-
ister that they might have to
shoulder rifles liefore long in de-
fense of Antwerp, he says the
Queen broke in, saying:
“So will I shoulder a gun and
all Belgian women will go with
me!”
COLOR PREJUDICE
EXISTS IN ENGLAND
The growing prejudice in Eng-
land against “color” has l>een a
subject of newspaper comment
of late in the London press. A
typical letter of this kind comes
from a writer, who says:
“Among the men who poured
into the smoking room cf a city
restaurant was a faultlessly
dressed negro of distinguished
appearance. All the other tables
in the room were quickly filled
and there was not an inch of
space to spare—except at the
negro’s table. Rather than sit
in his company, patrons went out
again. Even the waitress ignor-
ed the dusky one. It was fully
minutes before he was served,
and then only in response to al-
most pathetic appeals.
“Can it be,” asks the writer,
"that the American color preju-
dice is creeping into our midst?”
she sat down by the roadside
while this girl and I went on to
find some means of conveyance.
We came upon a riderless horse
which we mounted and went
back to find my daughter. We
had not been gone more than
] half an hour, hut she was no
i longer there.
| "W’e spent the rest of tin.
I night looking for her, hut found
!no trace of her. The rest of the
time until we got on the train
that brought us here, I was car-
ed for by the Red Cross. 1 do
not know where they found me
or anything else, except that I
have prayed every night and
morning since that my missing
girl be returned to me.”
Another refugee, Mme. Agnes
Hours Sault of Waulkenraedt,
told of her (light from Belgium.
“Please don’t ask me to tell
|the horrible things I saw while
coming here," she said. “I have
lost my husband and brother,
who died in the noble cause, and
now you see me alone with my
five children. For three days we
had little to eat except
bread.”
