CUMBERLAND JOINS

Cumberland County people are
the latest to introduce the principle
of the building and loan in cities to
land and loan associations in rural
communities, and it is likely that
the people of that county soon will
see in operation a plan whereby the
small farmer will be able to borrow
money at low rate of interest. AS
frequently pointed out by the Insur-
ance Commissioner, all that is re-
quired is for a number of farmers to
band together for mutual interest,
form an association under the State
law, and begin operations. The In
surance Commissioner will furnish
on request, information to such as
desire it on the methods to be en-
rlayed and the principles of the
business.

If there was an explosion it could

Paris, Aug. 12.-12:30 a.m.-The
French troops along the entire front
are in contact with the Germans. At
Mangiennes, northeast of Verdua, the
Germans attacked the French Monday
night. The French, reinforced by re-
serves. then took the offensive and
repulsed the Germans with consider
able losses. A German battery was
destroyed by the French artillery fire
and another was captured with three
gatling guns and ammunition.
A regiment of German cavalry suf-
fered seriously. Near Moncell a Ger
man battalion was repu,sed.
The German losses are said to have
been heavy.
The village of La Garde in German
territory, was taken by the French
at the point Of the bayonet.
German forces appeared at Long

Germans Invade France.

London, Aug. 12.-3:05 a. m.--The
Daily Chronicles military expert at
taches the highest Importance to the
british press bureaus announcement
that German troops are reported to
be entrenching along the line of the
river Aisne. He comments as fol-
lows:
This means the Germans in force
have penetrated for a considerabl le
distance into French territory from
Belgian frontier. This invasion is of
FAR greater importance, from a mil.
tary point of view, that the French m
cursion into Alsaee. The Germans
must have penetrated in the rear of
the French lines along the upper
reaches of the river Aisne. The
mere fact of entrenching suggests thu
presence of a strong body of M
fantry."
The Germans have occupied Ton
sres and are reported to have captur-
ed railway station "a miles from
Llege. Outposts affairs of no great
Importance are reported at numerous
frontier points of the many nations
engaged in the war but except IN
Belgium no great battle is likely FOR
some time to come, as the respective
armies are still engaged behind these
covering actions in the work of con
centration on the frontiers.
In the naval ship here there is no
news except report that the elusive
German cruisers Goeben and Breslau
have reached the Dardanelles where
IN accordance with international law
they Will be dismantled and interned
until the war is ended. Should this
news be confirmed, it will be great
step toward the safety of British and
French shipping in the Mediterran-
can.
In the Political Sphere are two IN
teresting items. According to the
Cologne Gazette, Romania has Joined
the triple alliance and will invade
Servia. 1t is reported from Cttinje
that the Servian and Montegrin
armies have affected a junction at
Pleylie, 157 miIes from Novipizar
where they are awaiting the result
of the revolutionary campaign in
Bosnia which they hope will facilitate
their occupation of that country.
