TAKING CHANCES
Won Hindenberg Is Drawing
Possibilities of Annihilati0n
In an Effort to Penetrate to
POland's Capital.

10y De w. u. 0oSOA'/
New York, Nov. 24.-General Won
Hndenberg has now reached the most
critical part of his critical journey to
Warsaw. At Lowicw and Skierniewice
he has placed his army straddleW1se
from two main northern and southern
railway lines which at these two points
begin to converge on Warsaw. The
straddle is 10 miles long. The angie
formed by the two railways runs 40
miles before it comes to its apex at
Warsaw. re5 ~.
This angle must be held by the Ger
mans in order to command both the
railways. Hitherto, Won Hindenber8
has been compelled to protect only one
railway line-the northern. Now ne
must make sure of the southern as
well or risk the danger Of being out
thanked. This risk even with the rail-
ways in German possession. is con-
slant one.
Besides the railway angle there is a
river angle which the Germans are en-
tering alive with perilous possip1ht1es.
This river angle is formed by the Wis
tula. After passing almost straight
across Poland from the German boun-
dairy the Vistula swings sharply to the
south Just before it reaches Warsaw
and forms a right angle with itself:
Warsaw is on the north-south leg OF
the angie dDOuI III ulAlCS AAOAAA SAAS e>AA
gle point. On the east-west leg and
the same distance from the angle point,
is Novo Georgeorgievsk. a first class
fortress of great strength.
Into this NAV between the fOrt1f1ca-
tons of Warsaw and Novo Cor
georgievsk, Won Hindenberg must now
venture. If he is outflanked or is
caught in the rear, he will be driven
between the fortresses and again the
Vistula will make a catastrophe in
evitable. In favor, however, OF the
risk Won Hindenberg is running is the
fact that none of the Slav comman-
ders has shown a capacity for direct
ing a coup of this nature. Neverthe-
less, the fact remains that at no time
during the war has there been SO
splendid an opportunity for devas-
tating stroke as Won Hindenberg is
now offering the Russians.

LIGHTNING KILLS TWO
YOUTHS At Macs
EN- ROUTE TO CORRAL SHEEP IN
STORM THEY ARE STRICKEN
BY FATAL BOLT

Tuesday afternoon between and
z o'clock Noberto Macs and Juan
Griego, son and son-in-law of Luciano
Macs, well known sheep man of
this county, were killed by lightning
on the ranch belonging to the elder
Macs, at Macs, formerly known as
Gonzales.
According to information the two
boys were shearing sheep at the
ranch, and as a storm approached Mr..
Macs told the two boys to corral a
herd of sheep they were grazing. A
younger son of Mr.. Macs was with
the sheep but he was unable to corral
them alone. The two other boys left
the ranch at o'clock to help him.
At about 7 o'clock the young son
of Mr. Macs went home and asked
why the others had not come to help
him, and when questioned said he
had not seen them. A search was in
stituted, and about an hour later the
bodies of the two young men were
found.
The victims of the storms wrath
were aged respectively II and 20
years, and were well known on the
mesa. Interment will probably occur
at Cherryvale.
