OBITUARY.

On February 23, death visited the home of MT. and Mrs. John Lowry of Linder and took from them their little daughter, Okla, who was six years old. She was sick two weeks and five days of pneumonia~ It seemed that the good doctors and the people did all that could be done, but it was the Masters will to take her. Weep not, dear family, but be ever ready and prepared, so that when you are called you can meet that dear one that has gone on before. She can never come back to you, but you may go to her. Little Okla was loved by all who newk her. She was prepared to meet the angels, where there will be no more pain or suffering. May God bless and help this heart-broken fami- ly bear their trouble.
 Written by Her Aunt.

GERMANS HURLED
MEN At BRITISH
LIKE LANDSLIDE"
Troops Literally Thrown Away
to Act as Mere Dead
Weight.

LONDON, Sept. 21.-The correspond
ent of the Times, telegraphing from
near scissors Sunday, in describing
the German counter attacks on the
allies left wing Wednesday and
Thursday, says:
THE men were literally thrown
away to act as mere dead weight.
They hurled them down at Us like
landslide. our officers were wonder
fully cool and made us lie close and
fight close. That and 6bit of pluck
did 1t. but it certainly did want pluck.
scissors has suffered terribly. 1t
has been subjected to regular daily
bombardment until almost irrepara-
BILE damage had been done. Both the
Cathedral and the Church of st.
Jean are badly damaged
To-day the fearful fusilade con-
tinues.
''On Tuesday. the 10Th, a severe at
tack was made by the enemy. who
evidently had been reinforced and
was determined If possible to break
through the allied lines between Vie
sur-Aisne and scissors that is, be-
tween the British and French forces.
This attack was heralded by ire
mendous outburst of heavy artillery
fire, followed by a systematic ad-
vance of the infantry and machine
guns. The allied forces stood their
giound splendidly poured a deadly
fire into the attackers and finally in
certain cases repulsing them at the
point of the bayonet. This battle con-
tinued with undated fury all night
and throughout Wednesday and
Thursday.
"On Wednesday night the Germans
attacked the French furiously in the
region near Rheims. They attacked
three times, but each time they were
repulsed with heavy loss.
"On Thursday they attacked the
British with equal ferceness in the
neighborhood of scissors, when again
their losses were enormous.
THE first sign of weakening was
noticed Thursday afternoon after the
fierce attacks of that day had been
repulsed. The German losses were
colossal. The Germans charged in
close formation with utter reckless
ness of human life.
1.-THE whole idea of German strategy
seems to he to throw plenty of
weight in the belief that some of 1t
is bound u get through"

who have been busy in London since
the outbreak of hostilities, may not
be able to bring their work to an end
by October 1, If todays influx of
Americans from the continent is a
criterion of the number still to come
from Germany.
Six hundred Americans, all from
Frankfort, reached the offices of the
relief committee today. These are
virtually all bona-flde Americans and
have unquestionable passports, and
most of them are in possession of suf-
ficient funds to take them hack home.
only Few lack the sums necessary
TO pay for their passages.
These refugees say that not enough
trains have been running in Germany
to bring out all the Americans who
wanted to leave. They wanted to
come from the first, but were unable
to find accommodations They de-
clare that several thousand American
tourists are still awaiting transporta-
ton to the Dutch border.

posed of American residents, intends
to continue it's work no matter what
is done by the government.

GERMANY DENIES
PEACE OVERTURES
Official Papers Say Report
Was Intended to Create
False Impression.
BY the Associated Press.

BERLIN, via London, Sept, p, 9;90
A. M.-Commenting upon the al
legged statement of Count Won Bern
storff. the German ambassador to the
United States. that his nation was
looking for peace upon condition that
the entity of German territory would
be preserved, or as so presented in
Washington dispatches. the North
German Gazette, the official organ,
declared in it's issue of September 20
that the government had not even
considered the matter.
THE assertions are intended" the
paper says, ito foster the impression
that we have tired of the war, in
spite of our Victories in the East and
in the West. Peace overtures may
not be looked for until the war,
forced ruthlessly on our people, is
brought to an honorable conclusion"
