At St Peter's Cathedral yesterday

morning the Rev. Canon Simpson

preached a very interesting thanks. giving sermon, which is reproduced below. Canon Simpson took as his text the words: "O all ye wo,-ken, of the Lord, bless ye thc Lord. praise Him and magnify Him foi- ever." _

Ho said: These words you win

in an ancient form of thanksgiving

after receiving Holy t‘oininunion which may be familiar to some of von' as it appears still in some oi' our liooks of devotion. this nenetiicte is sniff preceded by the antlphou, "Loi nt; sins the Sons of the 'riiree ciiiitiren which they Bang as lliey blessed the Lord in the furnace of fire." Anil mn; is the thought. I wish to dwell upon to-day.

f We. as a nation, are in the fiery urnace of war. Such conflict. such suffering, such anxiety, such bercavo. ment as the world has never kno\vn, are with us now, aml yet we are (-nliaq “DOH to Elve thanks to the Almighty for all the benefits llc has bestowed upon us.

Can we do it? lt is an easy matter

to join in thanksgiving services wnen things go well with us. When perhaps a bountiful harvest means an increase ¢° 0"? IHCOHIGZ or the prosperity of the country. the development of its industries, the rise in land values and the large return from our investments

aliéasure us of a comfortable competence.

ut when war is at our gates, when

we are hi the midst of strife ami tribii- lation, when our hearts are cast down with sorrow and anxiety for our lovon ones, when trade is depressed, when prices for the necessaries of life are rising, when the unemployed are cry- ing for assistance. when thc future is full of uncertainty. can wo join in thanksgiving, should \ve be asked to do so? Yes. Let us sing the Song of the Three Children. which they sang as they blessed the Lord in the furnace of fire.

“Did we not." asked the King,

"cast three men bound into the tire? And lo. I see four men loose. walking in the midst of the fire. ami they have no hurts; and the i’orm pf the fourth is like the Son of God." Ami so it may be with us. The flrey trial can- not hurt us ii’ we put our trust in God, and leave our cause in His hands. ami we may realise the presence and gp.

never -realised it before. The Son of God, not a “ son of the gods," such as Nebuchadnezzar thought he saw, but the Son of God the Lord Jesus llim-. self will be at our right hand to screen and defend us.

We have as yet made no sacrifices.

The few thousands subscribed in this Province to the various patroitic funds, have been given out of our abundance, and until we feel the pressure of the war, some ot' the bent of the fiery furnace, we cannot sym- pathise with others as we should. Are we praying as wo ought? For a short time after the war began there was an increased attendance at the daily services of intercession. The Wednes- day Eucharist, when members of the congregation and friends on active service were remembered by mime, and the Saturday Eucharist for thosc

eéilild was quite a novelty so (nr ng S arlottetown was concerned, and the loclety is much indebted to all who ielpcd to ‘make the parade the success it was. Special credit is due the pro- moters. Mr. and Mrs. A. Nowell, ot' _Brighton Road. who conceived the idea. and under whose direction the affair was got up. That the public ap- preciated the innovation and was in heilfly sympathy with it was evidenced by the magnificent collection which ‘WIS "H100, $135. The parade was ac- conipanietl by members of the 4th itc- giment Band. There were a number of collectors ami the two highest amounts. $18 and $12 were secured by Misses Isabel Toonibs and Lizzie Cole- inau, respectively. The various vehi- cles eiigaged in the procession were splcndidly decorated ami thc repre- sentative tableaux were interesting ami impressive. A particularly amus- ing one was the effigy of the Kaiser. This was a straw-stuffed impersona- tion of the Emperor, which was after- wards burned to the strains of Rule Britannia. Over the "Kaiser," radiant- ly triumphant, stood Master Phillip McDonald, who looked for all the world the part he played, John Buli_ Tlie parade letf thc drill shed at two oclock, and the route of procession was as follows: Up Kent street, into Great George street, down Grafton ,strcet. ami into Queen street, Rich- mond street, Prince street, Water street. Queen street, Kent street, back to the drill shed, which was reached at three-thirty. The procession stop- ped twice, once at the corner of Sunny Side and Queen street ami again at the Victoria Hotel to allow the collec- tors an opportunity to exercise their powers of persuasion. The following is the order in which the vehicles were arranged:

“The Hospital," (Messrs. Paton’s

THE I-IAGUE. Oct. 10.- Antwerp

surrendered to the Germans at 2.30 p. ni., Friday, October 0. The war flag was removed from the Cathedral, and the white flag raised in its place ut 0 a. ni. The actual surrender took place ilvc ami a half hours later it is declared here that the Cathedral Notre Dame has not been damaged.

The Germans delivered one of their

last furious attacks between six ami seven o'clock Friday morning. The Belgians resisted them valiantly in the trenches, Desperate lighting re- sulted and there were very heavy losses on both sides. During all Thu- rsday night, Zeppelin Airships direct- ed the firing of the German Heavy Artillery. the results of which are apalling. German Artillery forced their way across the river Nethe in which many artillerymen were drown- ed. The fighting was indescribably sanguinary. The Belgians succeeded in blowing up two, ami possibly more, of their batteries of heavy artillery.

AMSTERDAM, Oct. 11.-Advices

here say Germans captured 20,000 prisoners in fall of Antwerp.

LONDON, Oct. 11.-The first

official admission that the British participated in the defence of Aiit\verp is contained in the Admiralty‘s announcement to-day that three naval brigades with heavy guns had been seen there during the last week ot' the German attack.

LONDON, Oct. 11.-Two thousand

British marines ami sailors, part oi' a force oi' 8,000 which participated in the defence of Antwerp have crossed into Dutch territory in the neighbour- hood of iiulst ami laid down their arms. They will remain interiicrl in l-lolland during the war. This was given up by the Otllciiil Press Bureau.

The announcement adds that in the

retreat from Antwerp two oi’ the British brigades reached (lsteml safely. The other, however, was cut off to the North of Lokren, a town in East Flanders, two miles north-east of Ghent, and 2,000 men were intcrned in Holland. The retreat of the Belgian army was accomplished successfully. The losses of British naval brigades will probably be less than 300 out of a total of 8,000 men.

The terible nature of the fighting

in ami around Antwerp before its fall is graphically told by L. A. Jones in a special cable to Lomioxi. The follow- ing are extractsz-

LONDON, October 10.-Delayed

despatches fiom Antwerp give an im- pressive picture of how the lighting there has progressed. The Daily Chron- icle’s corrcsondent, tclcgraphing on Wednesday. says:

"The situation hero is developing

in a dramatic fashion. At 7.30 o'clock this morning the commander of the German troops besieglng tho city sent an ofilcer carrying a white flag to in- form the town arthorities that t.l\e 'besiegers were going to begin the bom- bardment of the city at 9.30 a.m. The 'news of this intention naturaly spread like wildfire, ami there was an imme- diate riish of civilians from the place. Some of the fugltivcs travelled to (ls- teiid, but many niado for the Dutch frontier. The conmtautlant of the city issued a notice that anybody who

'wished to leave the city could do so

freely, but added: ‘lt must be dis- tinctly understood that while Antwerp is being besieged no authorisation whatever will be given to anyone to return to the city.

“ At midday tho seat of the Govern-

ment was transferred fro1u`Antwerp to Ostend. This oventuality had been provided for.

"Despite the exodus of so many

people, however, there is an air of

quiet confidence that the Germans will never capture the city. Numbers of forts are still holding out with greater stubbornncss. ami the threatened beni- bardnient is considered a desperate manmnvre to try to force these to capitulate in order to save the city itself from damage. If so the Germans will linve a rude awakening, for the

ing to Ostend.

city will be defended to the uttermost.

" Despite the fact that numbers has-

tily left to-day. the city is still full of people, the ordinary population having been added to during the last few weeks, by many who have fied here for safety from the more eastern towns which the Germans have des- troyed by bombardment.

"There are rumours to the effect

that an iron cross and 25,000 marks ($6,125) have been offered by the Kaiser to the first man to cuter Aut- wcrp.

BELGIANS’ GALLANT STAND.

“For ,some days now the lighting

before Antwerp has ben practically u tremendous combat of artillery, ami, of course, the victory may be secured by the side with the heaviest guns. but one always has to consider the man behind the gun, ami the Bclgiaus are lighting with the heroism that has now made them famous throughout Europe. For twenty-four hours the Gorman army has scarcely made any advance, though ii' their 42-centimetrc guns are now in position they are certainly near enough to carry out their threat and honibard the town.

“ The Germans have fiercely bom-

barded thc village of Lintli. The lielgiaus remained until it was in flames and then evacuated. Yester- day the Belgians found two oi' the German bateries and very quickly put them out of action.

“ The Gcrnfans are placing mitrail-

leuscs and guns on every high build- ing commandlng the line of the River Nettie, although they protested against a similar act on the part of the Bel- gians. The latter are replying by blowing up every high buildliig on the line on which they believe the Ger- mans will advance. | “Le Matin anounccd that at the point oi' the bayonet the Belgiaus yes- terday silenced two German batteries. I "Excellent work has been done by the Belgian aviators in surveying Ger- man positions, despite the fact that the wind has been very high during the last two days. Volleys of German .shrupnel greet their appearance, but no casualties have been reported.

“It is of the utmost importance to

the Belgians that they keep the line open between Antwerp and Ghent. The Germans are pressing forward on the east. lt is not known they have succeeded in crossing the ltlver Nethc.

COST GERMANS 20.000 MEN.

" On the east they were only held at

bay by the desperate efforts of the Belgians. This offensive movement, however. has cost the Germans, it is said, at least 20,000 men.

The Germans are making desperate

efforts to break the line between Duii`el 'and Lierre, but every time they tried to cross the river they were literally inown down by the Belgian mitrail- lenses.

“ln some places hand-io-hami en-

counters with bayoncts have been the order of the day, ami it is on these occasions that the bravery of the liel- ginns has been prluclpaly demon- strated

Later on Wednesday ulglit, ilie same

correspondent sent this despatch:

“ After heavy engagements between

outposts the German forces have pushed as far as Broechcm, between lierenthals ami Antwerp, and within seven miles of thc city. At no point.. however, have the Germans actually succeeded in penetrating the Ilclgian line, though they are liurliug masses oi’ men against. the defenders.

" East oi' Duffel the Germans wc-re

fiften times repulsed by the deadly fire of the Belgian initrallleuscs. ami ‘on each occasion their losses could be counted by hundreds. liolgiau losses from Gorman artillery tire are also considerable, but small when coni- pared to that sustained by thc attack- ing force. in the region of Waclhem the whole country has been flooded to check the invaders' advance."

While the steamer was lying about

Tho former, who is an expert with tho rifle, run for his wcupon, and on his return found u large hear und her two cubs swimming in the water. By the bright gleam of the mnon's rays the chief officer saw about 300 yards oif the rapidly fleeing beasts. but raising tthe rifle to his shoulder he first shot the mother and then shot each of the cubs. On board the Miiito he has the

three beautiful skins.
