One fatal morning there was an order to ovacuate Belgrade, and it was a bitter pill managed to get away most of their tackle, leave their gans. That little British is sion entered Belgrade on December 15 with the Serbian Army. Very shortly after wards a large quantity of material arrived and another detachment of British troops.
"A few days afterwards the Serbians unde an attuck on one of the islands in the river opposite Belgrade. The Serbian infantry attacked one end of the island, and during the middle of a dark night the Austrians at the other end saw a huge, heavily armed boat, bristling with cannon, hearing quickly down upon them.
ATTACK ON AN ISLAND.
They could not imagine the origin of this river Dreadnought. It fired cannon and shell, with the result that the Austrian forces

"This Dreadnought had been crefully donstructed by the British petty officer, and consisted of a barge, on the how of which he had neatly fixed a number of tin plates, and behind these he had mounted two machine guns-hence the Austria as fright.
"There are a lot more of these now, and they have been doing a lot of these tricks. An old river bont, little more than a ferry boat, has been fitted up, and is called the Terror of the Danube
THE ENEMY'S LIMITS OF ENDURANCE, Our enemy at the outset disclosed a strange lack of capacity for appreciating the problems of human nature, an utter failure to grasp the part which honour, sentiment, and any of the purer tires play in the guidance of national action, and an entire disregard for international morality. Thus his calculations as to what would be the course taken by other nations and communities were entirely false, and he has seen the bribes which he thought would be potent scouted by one after another; and thus, too, he has built up for himself a heritage, the symbol of which for generations to come will be the new meaning attaching to the epithet German," when applied to honour to truth, to humanity, and to all that civilization implies Too really we jumped to the conclusion that his other calculations were equally faulty, and that he had over estimated his come endurance and his power of self-support. Slowly we have come to realize that, in things material, he does not miscalculate, as he does in things mental aid moral. We have built much on the hope of the bank ruptcy of his exchequer, or the exhaustion of The oficialis supplies of food or raw material, inter vening to end the struggle. If this is not sound, let us know it tid stupe our course accordingly.

A series of interesting rescripts by tienerul von Roehl, commanding the headquarters of the 9th Army Corps at Hamburg and Altona, is worth notice,
The general issues a summary warning to all whom it may concern that anyone discovered giving alcohol in any form 10 soldiers about to start on active service, or who treats soldiers on the march or at railway stations to alcoholic drinks will be punished with imprisonment for one year, unless the existing laws provide for a severer penalty.

The Court found that the act was done, not merely with the intention of destroying the ship, but also with the intention af sacrificing life; further, the opportunity given to the men and women on board getting to the boats and saying their lives was gressly insufficient, "There w evidence before me," said Lord Mersey, "of laughing and jeering on board the submarine while the men and women on the Falabu were struggling for their lives in the water, but I prefer to keep silent on this matter in the hope that the witorss was mistaken."
