their suit which was ordered or the
agency which had been placed.
Davis spent several days in Monte
Vista and here took in over $3.50.
After making a cleaning on the
slope he went to Walsenburg and
there interested many of the most
prominent business men in the city
to give his scheme a boost After
doing Walsenburg Davis came to
Trinidad yesterday afternoon and ac-
companying him was one of Walsen-
burg's leading citizens. who having
implicit faith and confidence in the

the Trinidad public and see that he
got started off right.
But just about this time there was
slip in the workings and several
of the Monte Vista people who had
been roped in together with some of
the Walsenburg citizens wired the
Rochester Tailoring company re-
garding their agent. Davis. and in re-
turn received a telegram which stat
ed that they had no aEcnt by that

Violent fighting has been resumed
within two-hour motor ride of the
gates Of Paris. At Tracy-Le-Val,
where the main battle line from the
north swings to the eastward, at the
point nearest Paris, German ad-
vance led to violent encounter. The
Germans attempted to recapture the
town won by the allies a few days
ago. but according to the French
war office statement today they
were repulsed with heavy losses.
In Flanders the artillery duel, de-
scribed during the last few days as
of furious intensity, has become still
more violent. on the part of the Ger
mans at least, but here, as elsewhere,
the opposing forces are holding fast
to their main positions.

tion states that heavy fighting has
been resumed in the Argonne for
