A political junta In XiOndon baa ap
parently begun an nttaok on President
Wilson. Tbe war is the inane and the
President la being roaated In Assoolat
ed Press dispatobes for not protesting
and taking Bides with tbe Allies when
the neutrality o! Belgium was violat
ed. It was to be expeoted that nvery
effort possible would be made to draw
tbis oonntry into tbe oonfliot, and anoh
was foreseen by the adminstration,
with tbe resclt that a polloy of
"bands ofl" was taken at tbe begin
ning and has' been strictly adhered to
lnoe. Ai a signatory power of tbe
Hague, tbe United States recognizes
the nentraiity of Belgium, and for
that matter, the rights of all neu
trals, bnt only France, England and
Bnssia went so far as to guarantee the
neutrality of Belgium, and it is be
coming more and more apparent that
tbis guarantee was made for strategic
al and polittoal reasons. However,
in faoe of snob bitter and undeserved
attacks as tbe junta sent out through
the Associated Press on Tuesday,
America will ; continue to feed tbe
starving Belgian's while tbe big Eur
opean poweri combat to turn her
bloodsoakad soil into a shambles. Tbe
gratitude of England aa a whole, to
ward tbis nation, may not be ques
tioned. but ber restrictions in oensor-
sbln of acrimonious attacks against a
friendly, President and bis nation, are
apparently very lax.
The fuel value of two! pounds of
wood la rongbly equivalent to tbat of
one nonnd of coal. Tbis Is given as
tbe result of oertain calculations now
belus made in tbe forest service labor
story, whioh show also about bow
manv cords of certain kinds of wood
are required to obtain an amount of
beat equal to tbat in a ton of ooal
ueitain kinds of wood, snob as biok
cry, oak, bseob, birob, bard maple,
sub, elm, loaust, longleaf pine, and
cherry, have fairly high beat values,
and onlv one cord of seasoned wood of
these ipeolea is required to equal one
tou'ot good ooal. It takes a cord and
a balf of ahortleaf pine, hemlock, red
gam, Donglas Br, sycamore, and aoft
niaple, to equal a ton of ooal, and two
cords of oedar, redwood, poplar, cat
alpa, Norway pine, cypress, tasswood,
snraoe and white pine.
EASED HIS CONSCIENCE.
An Ineident Showing a Queer Phase of
i Russian Character.
"The Kuselan character bus In It
something very beautiful something
childlike." wrote the i'rlncess Troubet
skol (Amelia Rives) from 1'etrograd to
a Richmond friend. ,
"A happening In Petrograd brings
out the Uusslan character well.
"A young nobleman, rather Hushed
and Incoherent with champagne, drove
up to the opera, and, aa be descended,
a wretched beggar whined out the
usual petition for alms.
"Tbe nobleman looked at the ragged
and filthy beggar; then be iaugbed
foolishly, dropped a silver ruble In tbe
gutter and said: '
"There. Pick that out wltb your
teeth add you can bave it'
''The beggar gave the nobleman a
strange look, a strange, reproachful
look wblcb did not lack a certain dig
nity. Then, without a word, be went
down on all fours and drew tbe coin
from tbe foul water and mire wltb his
teeth.
"Tbe young nobleman took out a
fifty ruble note.
" 'Now strike me in tbe face,' be said.
Strike me, and I'll give yon this.'
"Tbe beggar struck blm a good, vig
orous blow.
Then the young nobleman, bis con
science satisfied, Iaugbed, gave tbe
beggar tbe promised reward and hur
ried into tbe opera, patting bis burt
cbeek tenderly wltb his handkerchief."

Some of Them Are Trained to War AI
most Prom Babyhood.
One may often see In tbe English
Oustrated periodicals photographs of
tiny soldiers about seven or eight yean
old gravely saluting elderly officers.
These diminutive warriors are boy re
cruits holding regular and dignified
places in tbe Indian army. Each Sikh
regiment la allowed twelve of these
little chaps,, who are trained almost
from babyhood. Tbey are each paid 8
rupees and 8 annas a month and at the
age of sixteen enter tbe regular army.
Tbe Sikh soldiers are a most interest
ing and remnrknble part of tbe British
army in India. Their conduct In fron
tier engagements bas distinguished
them as brave, steady and devoted to
their English officers. Yet about fifty
years ago these well ordered soldiers
were fanatical savages, who In their
nind uprisings shook tbe power of
Great Britain. Once conquered they
accepted British rule and were trained
and disciplined Into a well equipped
army 6t 80.000 soldiers. Tbey formed
part of tbe force that subdued the mu
tiny. The Hodson's horse troops, which
helped capture Delhi, were composed
of Sikhs whose devoted service to their
lender made them famous.
Their scarlet sashes and turbana
gained them the name of "Flamingos."
Their descendants are no less deter
mined lighters and stanch soldiers.
