Mary's Cathedral, Fifteenth and Davis streets. gratitude of the Belgian people to the United States, are daily becoming more interspersed with the slang phrases of this country. , Tonight, after a vivid description of some ot tne wrongs suffered by Bel gium at the hands of the German gov ernment. Baron Moncheur announced that Belgium again felt safe now that the United States had thrown its hat into the ring." Again, he declared "Uncle Sam never starts anything he doesn't finish." Slang Inserted In Speech. While riding through the mountain states he was greatly Interested in a phrase of encouragement called out by a citizen standing at the rear platform of the train, who said the United States Army was . preparing to "can the Kaiser." After the train started the chief of the mission sought out Hugo Gibson, who is on the train as the representa tive of the Secretary of State, and asked the meaning of the phrase. Mr. Gibson informed him it was a slang expression, having Its possible origin in the rapid disappearance of a dog who had had a can tied to its tail. Later it was used a number of times by members of the mission in the flve minute back platform speeches. New Expressions Acquired. The expression, "Belgium is down, but not out." is another sentence which often is heard in the clear diction but slightly accented voice of the ex-Minister to the United States. The mission received a warm welcome here and spent most of the day attending recep tions ana riamg aoout tne city. In his speech tonight Baron Mon cheur declared his country was now suffering worse cruelty from the in vaders than ever before. "Germany has wantonly invaded and ravaged Belgium." he said. "Thou sands of our civilian population have been massacred men, women and children. Many cities have been de stroyed and hundreds of villages have been razed not from military neces sity, but as a cruel punishment to the Belgians whose army dared oppose the Invader. Factories Stripped ot Machinery. "Germany has taken the machinery oui or our lactones and seized our raw materials. She has taken our trunkline railways for milltarv nur poses and has dug up small railways wnicn tormeriy served Belgian internal commerce. She has imposed enor mous taxes and exacted innumerable fines. "She has taken large sums from the Belgian banks and paralyzed all com merce. Farmers cannot gather their crops without a permit, and all goods can be sold only by permission of the German authorities. "We have not come to pose as mar tyrs, but to tell you these things in order that you may more clearly under stand with -what eagerness and what hope we look forward to the day when the strong arm of America will deal the final blow to liberate our people and to make the world safe for all honest nations." The mission left Spokane at 8:20 to night and expected to reach Seattle at 10:30 tomorrow morning. Licenses Issued at Seattle. SEATTLE. Wash.. Julv 7.

The letter was postmarked Portland. Mrs. Marian B. Thompson, the girl's mother, has been ill for some time, and; according to the other sister, the miss ing girl's actions have had much to do with her mother's illness.
