LONDON. Nov. PA veil has been drawn over the battles between the Russian and Austro- German forces. The headquarters of both armies are confining themselves to the brle1est statements regarding the hostilltles. Unofficial sources show the German advance had penetrated farther into Poland than had been disclosed pre- viously and Warsaw is threatened again.
 General von Hindenburg's army has advanced as far as the Lowicz- Skie;- niewice line indicating the Germans have covered two-thirds of the road to the Polish capital. now forty miles dis tant. Farther south in Poland the all lies are reported to have been repulsed between Radon and Kielce.
 The battle in East Prussia seemed 10 have died down, but the Russians continue to advance in Galicia and are still fighting on the CZenstochOWa- Cracow front. The battle in Poland in the direction of LoWicz is q most crit- cal one. Germans express confidence in General von iIindenburg, but Lon don and Petrograd experts say the Russian numerical majority must tell.
 In Flanders the French armies seem to be enjoying a long deserved rest The only sign of fighting is an occa- sional artillery bombardment. The men now get a chance to tidy them selves after a month in the water soaked trenches.
 The British officially confirm heavy losses on both sides around Ypres. The Servians are stubbornly defending themselves against the Austrians. but unless the other Balkan states help her Servia seems faced by defeat The British recruiting campaign is bringing many men to the cOlOrs.

 Not only did she cause the arrest of two men who were about to vote illegally, but her act so completely scared others that she prevented the casting of at least seventeen other illegal votes. she claims.
 Mrs. Lane set about the job me medically On a pretext she went to Ia rooming house on the north side, from which house twenty seven names were registered on the voting list She found that only ten of the twenty y-seven actually lived there. and that some of the men registered had not lived there for five years.

Some folks remember the times he used to sling a hoe and shovel over his shoulder and chase heads of water up and down the irrigatng ditches of eastern Oregon In fact, early in life he was a practical farm CT and irrigator, and many's the time he has combatted those difficulties that make farming in reclaimed lands a joy and blessing. He has waded the rushing canals and got his feet just as wet, and been kept out of bed to do night irrigating just as long and as often as many of the Salt river valley farmers.
