LONDON, Sept. 19.- For ilve days

the British and French armies have been, trying to dislodge the Germans from the strong line of defence which they constructed on the battle front stretching from the Oise to. the Meuse Rivers. Their attacks were counter attacks but were offset and there is no change in positions. The Allies claim slightlprogress at some points against the Germans right wing North of the River Ainse. They repulsed the coun- ter_ attacks ' between Caroone and Rheims on the centre and right the Germans acting on the defensive, liav'- ing dug intrenchmeuts.- The Germans having a fortified front would appear to have the advantage according to military experts. They, however, must defend the whole front while the

Allies are free to mass troops and attack anywhere. lt is thought that General Joilre is making plans to break through the German front some- where North of Verdun and thus sever German communications with the Rhine and compel them to rely on the line running into Belgium, which is nienaced by Anglo-French forces as well as the Belgians Army. The Ger- mans as is reported would offer tre- mendous resistance to such a move. It is apparent the Germans plan re- maining on the defensive in the West while taking all possible troops East to meet the Russians. 'I`hey ordered troop trains to assemble at Luxem- berg, on the frontier. Calais and lioulogne routes to Paris have been 1 re-opened. _

Furze, (lox and Haszard have been honorably discharged, while the others arc on furlough until Thursday, when they will return. Jack Haszard will rc- suine his studies at McGill. The “boys” will miss him considerably. as he was one of the finest men they had, said Major Darke in coiivorsption with a -Guardian reporter last night.

'I`he men ex- pect to be there all winter, and a suitable barracks has been prepared for them. , Everybody is satisfied with the place and the food is served in very good style. The "boys" are all perfectly healthy, the spot being an ideal one. They don't work very strenuously, doing just sufficient "to keep -'them out.o.f mischief", as Mains Darke puts lt'.' They 'engage In friend- ly, though seriously contested, games of football and baseball, and "the old time players are becoming quite young again", to quote the Major's words once more. Every second night there is a baseball match. the officers and the N. C.

S|R\J. M. BARRIE THINKS WAR

WILL LAST LONG TIME.

NEW YORK, September 19.- Thc

Cunard liner Lusitania, from Liver- pool, reached her pier here early yea- t_§rday_._ _Proniiiient among the 1502 passengers were Sir James M. Bar- rie, author aud playwright, and A. E. W. Mason, the English novelist Speaking of the war Sir James liar- rle saids- . ' ' “The real ultimate cause of tho war is milltarism. The nations have been arming themselves and a load- ed gun always goes off sooner or lat- er. In my oplnioii the war will last a long time.

The issue involved is as clear as

the cause which brought it about-it is whether soldiers or citizens are to rule in Europe. `

“So far as England is concerned

the most striking feature of the war is the way in which the young men of Britain are enlisted.

"One hears the Kaiser generally

blamed for the war. This is some- what less than fair. The Kaiser was a young man in 1870 when the war spirit was a very strong, and he is merely the product of a system.

"It is too early to talk of peace

negotiations. No peace would be lasting i_ior would it produce the re- sults which \ve all hope for unless one side is thoroughly beaten."

LONDON, Sept. 19.-A despatch

to The Times from Bordeaux dated Friday says: “Throughout yesterday the wIiol_e front was engaged, the iight again being the hottest on the left fiaiik, where the turning movement is bccoining defended. The enemy made a series of vigorous counter-attacks.

“General I~‘rench's army has again

been singled out for the encmy's par- ticular attcntion, but their three at- tempts to get home upon it have been in vain. While the fighting is hard on the eastern half of their front the Germans are digging hard in the cen- tre froln Ithcinis to Argoiiiio and this probably will form tlis pivot of the battle.”

100,000 MEN WILL BE LEFT BE- HIND AT VALCARTIER.

VALCARTIER CAMP, Que., Sept.

19.-When the first Canadian contin- gent, comprising around 22,000 oilicers and mon sail for England, about 10,000 will be left behind. It has been gen- ierally supposed that the latter would be used to form the nucleus of a sec- ond Canadian dlvision, Init Colonel Sam Iluglies stated tonight that many of ilieni would act as reserve and would be sent to Englzind a few weeks after the departure of the first lot of Canadian soldiers. The date of sail- ing, ot` course, will be kept a secret as far as possible, but it is very probalile that the Canadians will have some training on English soil liefore join- ing the British and French forces on the (lontiiient. liow many of those who will not be taken with the first contingent, but will follow later for wastage, such as sickness and casual- ties, thc minister would not state. lint undoubtedly a considerable number

of the disappointed ones will cross the Atlantic sooner than they expect.

'KAlSER'S` I-'ANTASTIC DREAM AND HIS RUDE AWAKENING.

LONDON, Sept. 19.-One of the

roots of the present war was the grave and serious niiscalculation regarding British Empire that German "culture" and German spirit led Emperor Wil-- liani and the German people into, said Premier Asquith in addressing a re- cruiting meeting at Edinburgh, Scot- land tonight.

The Germans were led into the mis-

calculation, he said, that tho British colonies wanted to cut connections with the Mother Country and that In- dia was in revolt.

“What a fantastic dream and what

a rude awakening,” exclaimed the Premier.

lt has been proved that Germany by

her own deliberate act made warr Mr. Asquith continued, adding that Germany has made no attempt to con- trovert that fact, except by the cir- culation of wanton falsehoods. It is in the interests not only of the British Empire but of civilization, the speaker declared, that the arrogant claim of a single power to dominate the destin- ics and development of Europe should be resisted.

AN ANGLO-AMERICAN CONTIN-

GENT IS BEING ORGANIZED.

LONDON, September 20.- There

are not lacking adventurous neutrals these days who long to get into tho European flglit. Hence, the Anglo- American contingent that Lord Lyve- den is organizing.

It is not the intention of Lord

Lyveden to interfere w-ith American neutrality. Ile, therefore, seeks only British subjects in the United States, or Americans who are resident in Britain or have taken out B`rilish citi- zenship papars.

Permission to organize such a con-

tingent has only recently been grant- ed by the British war office, yet over two hundred have already enrolled. Plans are to form half an infantry batallioii of 480 men, and one or two squadrons of cavalry of 150 men each, besides small dctachuients. Then, if at the end of four months the com- mand passes the inspector, the men will take the ancient army oath of nl- legiance to the king--not to Great Britain-and go to the front, as a unit.

IIRTILLERY DUEL

(Special to the Guardian.) PARIS, Scot. 20.-With the break

of day the furious nrt-'illcry duels were resumed with unubatcd fierce- ness along the whole line from Noy- on to Verdiin. Despite the ferocity of the French attacks on the German left where the Crown l’rince's army is fighting to keep from being driven back through Stensy Gap, the fier- mnns appeared to bo barely holding their lines with the stubborness of despair. The loss of life at this point on both sides is enormous owing to frequent clashes in the open. The Gor- mnn 'loss is terrific as n result of the toll taken by the French, 75

millimeters, und the bayonet charges..

ST JAMES'S. There was an unusually large ntIeiid~ ance at St James`s (lhurcli last night when the Rev. Dr Fullerton oreaclicd an excellent sermon from tice twelfth chapter of Deuteronomy, verse 10., Di'. Fullerton said iii part: ' “ We have the question asked: 'Anil

now, israel, what doth the Lord l.liy God rcquinc of thee? ' The answer is summed up in ii few words, iliui they should follow in the footsteps of God; that lie is their leader. lic has I::iIlt»d them for a special piirposc and they must justify ills culling by lhc realisa- tion of that purpose. \Vc go hack to those seiiii-historir: tliiies and we iliirl that God desired a nation tliut. would contain the oraclcs of ills kingdom. They were to be thc central lifc whose radiance would illuminate other nation- alities; they were to iiold in priiiciplcs the oracles of the living God that they might prepare liunianity for an ascciit in things that were moral and spirit- ual, that they might prepare the human race, diverse in its iiatioiial- ities, in its language, in its conception of morals, for the reception of Jesus Christ, the Sou of the Eieriial God. lt is true that from thc stniidpoint of religion to-day wc are eiiipliasisiiig the individual, and yet we inisztukc the whole trend of the piirpo:-ic of God il' we do not recognise that llis rcdciup- tion includes thc race. llad it not included .the race it could not enibrare the indlvdual. The claims of the Cross are on humanity as a whole. lt ap- peals to the race just as definitely and distinctly as it appeals to you and to nie. We have no hesitation in say- ing that the great nation to which we belong has been as clearly culled ni' God as the Israelites of old. We have no hesitation in asserting our belief that we are not wlicrc we are to-day in our splendid cuiiiliiiizition without tho guiding hand oi' the Etcr- nal Goil. We do not believe iii cliiiiiuc; we do not bclievc that God leaves any- thing to the inure qilestioii ol’ fuiili. Our race and language, our history :ind literature, our Iuw and our governuiuiit are all straiiiis ivovcii iiilo tlint nii;:Iii_\' \veh by which God has hound us fo- gether. llas Ile hound us togi-tlier that we might simply dominate the seas and multiply our coniincrce'.' lluuld we cmicclvc Alniigh,ty God lond- ing diverse nationalities into one grziiid union without a splendid moral pur- pose, without a spiritual power that could work out the destiny for wliirli Ile created us? It remains true for us, as it was true for lsracl. that a covenant with God is the one sure ground of all covenants bctwcun uian and man; and when we rc:-ognlsc that the treaties made of old with God in all sincerity ever brought vic- tory to the side of truth and righteous- ness, surely we should recognise to-day that the one binding trcaiy on us is that which, as n iiatiou, we should make with our God. You know how Shakespeare, that prince of poets, dwelt continually on the fact that all the world's a stage and :ill thc niru and women merely players. The llibic emphasises the same triiili. Sonieliow -mysteriously pcrliups-to an cud wo cannot see, and under ii Providence that never crrs, we are hound tngcilier In this mighty Empire, wcldod in soul and mind, that wc might bc the iii- struments of God in working out ills rlgliteoiis ends. And yet, ii` this is so, surely during these recent weeks in the varying fortiiiics of war, our Iiearts have been moved to consider, where is God in the midst of this terrible slaughter? Whore is God in this unparalleled and bloody conflict, where niillloiis are strlvliig with streii- uous endeavour to slay one another on the field of battle? We cannot think on the awful horrors of war, on the consequences of this present war- we cannot think on tho passions that accompany it without pausing anti con~ sidering whether, after all, we are the instruments of God in this conflict. The nation has been called to prayer; but why are we praying day by day? Can we consecrnte with prayer and benediction those iron-clad forces of destruction that are sweeping the mighty waters of the deep to-day? (lan we thank Almighty God for such suc- cess as we have won against great odds oil the field of battle? Are we able to fall buck in the last analysis and find our souls humlily yet strongly thrilled with this conception, that we are on the sitio of righteousness, that we are on the side of truth. and con- sequently on the side of God? Can we, with love, think of God as being with us, when by sheer slaughter we are striving to hold our own and gain victory? I would like on some occa- sion to demonstrate by actual detail what our heritage has cost in the past. But think on the destruction oi Jer- usalem! How many lives were sacri- ficed in that destruction! Turn to more recent times and consider the French Revolution. How niauy things

Giiiiii FINISH iii

THE Hiiiiiiii 'HIEIS

IlAI.ll>`A.\', Sept. 19.-The unfinished

2.19 trot. and the 2.17 prime were con- vludcd this al`ie1‘iioon. There was great exrilciiieiif over the outcome of_ ilie irnt iii which Oakley Ii. llllfi Df- Sliurper each had two heats and Dora. mic. Long before the hour of start- ing, interested people. were arriving at the track the sympatlilzors of the dif- ferciit liorscs being anxious to get a. line on their prcliminarics. Dr. Sharp- t-r canie out for his warming up work like a colt. and reeled oil’ it mile in 2.23 3-4 against a strong wind, so easily that his friends wore a happy smile. Dora and Oakley boili came out apparently strong. It is doubt- ful if ever in thc history of racing licrc, has there been such intense ln- tcrest in thi- ouicoine of a heat. Start- er Power railed the horses back for ihrcc scores ns; Oakley was not quite up. Ou thc fourth at t.lie word go Sliarpcr shot. to the front. On the Iia<~ksI.reii~li Dora came up fast on the inside and Oakley on the outside. The ilircc snlkies were so closc_it looked like a spill. Dora struck Sharper's sulky and liolli horses went oil' their feet. Oakley sprlnilug to the loud. li looked :ill over hut the Doctor set- ilcd tliiichly and drove furiously for Oakley. They were neck and neck at the three qliurters, i'I'oni iliere to the turn (‘anicron and I\incKinuon teamed for dt-:ir life. Un the turn Sharper got in front and won hy two lengths in fast time for the day and wind, 2.21.

The 2.17 class pace had for the finals

llelcii ll.. llilda S .and A Game of- lfliance, Ili-fore thc start the driver of li<-len lt. was called to the stand in explain his failure to win the race. The explanation satisfied the Judges. A Ganic-of-(‘lmiif‘e had the pole, Helen on the outside of llilda. Chance and lirlcii went away very fast; Chance going to a bad break at the turn. Helen raced in front until the upper turn. when llilda went in on the lead. On tho home stretch Helen came with such a rush that she nearly nipped the heat, llilda having a bare nose to the good. _

Helen R. is thought by horsemen

here, to be the best racing prospect in the Ppnvlnces. She competed on ihroc consecutive days In nine belts. the fastest being 2.16 1-2 and the slow- eat 2.21. She was the contending

horso in almost every heat.

'l`lio MacKinnon Drug Co. have the

honor of being the largest money win- ning stnbln and li. A. MacKinnon is the largest money winning driver. Ileleii R. is still eligible to the slow classes.
