At Crefeld we secured an automo-

of troops. Entertainments extended on
both sides of the highway and as far
as the eye could reach there were
masses Of troops with field guns and
munitions of war. Moving in the di-
rection of Belgium, between Cologne
and Bingen was a continuous line of
troops, provision wagons and ambu-

In the afternoon German officers oc-

the city.
The telegraph office and railway
station were closed fo- 80 greater

The general opinion is that the
Germans will only pass through the
city or at the most, make a very short
stay there.
The only signs of anima ton in the
place are caused by the arrival of pea
SAINTS who are abandoning the sur

Sistinge in furnishing a small bond

been busy at the court house with
the county registration books, and
from the insight which he has already
obtained from that work. he realizes
that to get up the corrected list OF
the city voters, and make it absolute
ly correct, that it will require an
amazingly lot of work. and will take
some little time to do it right. Mr.
Hicks says that he will consult the
death records at the city clerks of

of making out the list as will be di-
rected.

R. w. Eckenroth, running un-

yesterday in rather handy fashion,
beating field of twenty-five start
ers to the wire. Eckenroth started
with a two-minute handicap, and,
taking the lead at the three-mile
mark, lead all the way to the wire.
But the real thrill of the race
was furnished by little Bobby
Williams, the sensational speeder
of the Tenth Street Clubmen.
Williams broke his own record for the
course made last November when he
captured first place in The Washington
