Carl Hans Lody. alias Charles A. Inglis,

OF ALLIES
IN FORWARD DIRECTION
No Official Confirmation of Reported
Reoccupation OF Ostend
Up to Present.
GENERAL ADVANCE ORDERED
Resumes Hammer Blows
With Greater Energy Than Ever.
Reported Evacuation Of Lille by
Kafser's Forces Is Lacking.

LONDON, October 31.-The impress
sion created here by the latest war
news is that a general advance OF the
allied forces In France and Belgium
has been ordered. so main interest
again is centred in the cockpit cover
ing thirty or forty miles from the sea-
board.
The general trend of the movements
OF both the German ana the allied
armies is for the moment, according
to both British ana French official
statements. in II northerly and north
easterly direction, which is in accord
ance with the desires of the allied COM
mandcrs. but that, Germany has re-
sumed her hammer blows with greater
energy than ever is attested by the
British official information bureau.
In spite of these stubborn counter
strokes, 1t is claimed that all the move
ments OF tho .trisne forces are In a
forward direction, towards. the line
still held by Germans in force, and
stretching from Bruges to Thourout,
Roulers, Iseghem and Courtrai.
Whether from Bruges this line extends
to Ostend or Zeebrugge is moot point,
there being up to the present no Of
fetal confirmation of the reported re-
occupation of Ostend by the allies.

evacuation OF Lille by the Germans also
is lacking.

CATTLE PUSHED
WOMAN IN WELL

Arnegard, N. D.. Dec. 4.---Mrs.
Peter Peterson living southwest of
Cherry was engaged in watering the
stock from an open well, about mile
from her home and had the mis-
fortune of falling into the we'll, in
about five feet Of water 1t seems
that the stock was thirsty, and while
Mrs. Peterson was drawing up water
out Of the we'll. the stock crowded in
on her in such a way as to cause her
to lose her balance and fell in.
There was no one around at the
time of the accident. only her little
two-year-old child, who could do very
little to assist her. The well being
shallow, she managed in some way to
get hold of the tub, possibly by the
assistance Of her child and placed 1t
in position to draw herself out, after
working franctically for about an
hour and a half. Mr.. Peterson was
busy with other work around the
home and did not pay much attention
as:..to the length Of time she was
away, as it took some time to walk
that distance and water the stock.
After arriving home she contracted a
severe cold which, confined her to the
bed. and If she pulls through the or
deal with nothing more than the cold,
she can praise herself. lucky, and will
remember the near fatal accident the
rest of her life.
