From the Battle Front. via Paris.
Sept. 30.-This was the nineteenth
day OF continued hard lighting along
the 15O-mile front from the Somme to
the Moselle. and yet there is no def
mite indication that the historic bat
tie is nearing a finish. There are,
however, evidence that the Germans
are receding before torcible and
sustained pushing from the allied
armies. especially on their western
and eastern wings, while the center.
where the Germans are more strongly
intrenched than at any other point
with heavy artillery, remains almost
stationary.
1t is generally concluded by French
military men that some important
move must soon be made by the Ger
mans, who have found it impossible
to stem the advance of the Allies,
though they have opposed the stern
est and most desperate resistance.
sacrificing thousands of men daily.
The German wings appear as
though folding back on the center.
leaving the sole hope for a backward
monument by way of Rethel.
The allied commanders are hus-
banding their mems lives to the
greatest possible extent by keeping
them from frontal attacks on posi-
tons where the Germans are in adj
vantageous situations; but when
ever the plan of campaign necessi-
tates direct attacks the French and
British soldiers go forward cheer
fully with the utmost confidence in
their leaders.

EXCURSIONS ON ST. JOHNS
RIVER DURING REUNION
Steamboat Ride To Jetties Said 10 Be
Finest Trip in World. Boats Run
From Jacksonville Mouth of
the River Daily.

Jacksonville. Fla. April 17.-Amoug
the many interesting events of the
Confederate reunion, May 6, 7, and s,
will be excursions on the. st. Johns
river one OF the most remarkable
bodies OF water in America
For q distance of fifty miles, with
Jacksonville as the center, the st.
Johns river is from one to ten miles
wide. Below The city, at the mouth
of The river, are the government jet
ties, where fortunes have been spent
in making navigation safe and ade-
quate.
A steamboat trip to the jetties is
one of the finest river trips in the
world, and delight to all who take
it. Excursions will be run from Jack
sonville to the mouth of the river
every day of the reunion, and several
thousand people are expected to visit
that historic spot. In taking the trip
to the ocean, the steamers pass the
magnificent water front of Jackson
vile, famed all over the country for
its commerce and manufacturers.
Jacksonville has seven and half
miles of water front, all of it built
up with docks and wharves, while the
tall skyscrapers of the city give the
background of the picture an intense
ly modern and thrifty setting.
Above the city are the famous
orange groves of Duval county, which
every visitor to the reunion will want
to see. These groves are visited year
ly by several thousand tourists who
come to Florida to spend the winter
months. Farther up the river are
many points of historic interest that
everybody will want to visit To meet
this demand, river steamers will make
trips every day, giving special rates
to reunion visitors.

AGED LITTLE ROCK AL
DERMAN DIED YESTERDAY
Louis N0lmer Alderman for Eighteen
Years Succumbs 10 Paralytic
Stroke, Formerly Engaged
I'm Mercantile Business.

Little Rock, April 17.-Louis Yomer,
the aged alderman from the Sixth
ward, died at his home in this city
at 3:45 p. m Thursday, from a para
lytic stroke last Monday.
He was elected to the city council
eighteen years ago, and had been re
elected every two years since that
time, usually without opposition. He
had sat in the council Of the city un-
der more mayors, and for a longer
time than any other alderman who
had ever served the city. He is the
first member of the council to die in
office in many years.
Very seldom was he absent from
his seat in the council chamber, and
when he did not respond to his name
Monday night the fact was known
that he was lying i'll at home, and not
expected to recover, it brought spirit
of gloom to all.
A number of years ago Col Volmer
was engaged in the dry goods bust
ness on East Markham street.

Why You Should Not Worry

Ralph Waldo Trine, writing a very
suggestive article in the May Woman's
Home Companion, tells, as follows,
why people should avoid worry;
Fear paralyses healthy action both
mental and physical. Worry corrodes
poisons and pulls down the organ
ism. 1t is perverted mental state
that externalizes itself in various all
ments according to the peculiar ma
tive tendencies or weaknesses of the
one in whose organism its effects find
lodgment. Many a death long before
its time, in addition to many a de
pleted nervous and general physical
condition, is due directly to it. There
is probably no agency that brings us
more undesirable results than worry
and this one fact should arouse us to
allow it absolutely no place in our
lives"

THE GREAT CREST OF THE
SIERRA.

Mount Whitney, the highest point
in the United States, is not an isolated
mountain peak like Mount Shasta or
Mount Rainier, but is the loftiest
point in the great California crest or
enormous saw tooth ridge of the Sier-
ra Nevada, including many eminences
almost as high. Mount Whitney is
14,50l feet above sea level. Among
those of slightly lesser height are
Mount Russell, less than a mile dis
tant, 14,190 feet: Mount Williamson,
14,3S4 feet; Mount Muir, 14,025 feet;
Mount Langley 1902 feet; Mount
Barnard, 14,o03 feet, and Mount Tyn-
dali, 14,025 feet. The most distant
of these is less than miles away.
By strange freak of nature the
lowest point of dry land in the United
States is less than 80 miles from the
highest The lowest point is in death
Valley and is 276 feet below sea level.
1t is said that from this point Mount
Whitney can be easily seen on clear
day.

HOTELS WILL GIVE VIS-
ITORS FAIR TREATMENT
Prices Established at San Diego for
1915 by Fair Association Which

vance or Lower Price.

San Diego, April 17-Visitors to
1he wonderful Exposition chat will be
opened in San Diego on January /.
1915, and which will be open for one
year, viii be assured Of fair treatment
by hotel apartment and lodging house
keepers because Of the agreement al
ready reached by the members of the
Hotelmen's Association of San Diego.
Prices have been established for
1915 by the Association, and a COM
pact entered into, which makes it inn
possible for any hotel. apartment or
lodging house keeper to advance or
lower his prices at any time during
the exposition year. Publication of
the rates already has been made, and
it is seen that they are not exorbitant
in fact they are usual prices of past
years.
And in the furtherance of this eff
fort to assure exposition visitors fair
treatment, the exposition officials in
San Diego have enlisted the eo-opera-
tion of the San Diego Federation of
State Societies. Such organization of
the membership of the forty-eight
state societies in San Diego has been
effected that visitors from any one of
the states represented will be given
personal attention at downtown head
quarters of the societies by members
of the particular state society from
which any visitor may register.

when directors contemplate dividends
We can state that no action will be ta
ken in regard to dividends until there
has been a final determination OF the
litigation involving the Hall teaching
process (now before the circuit court OF
appeals in San Francisco) and some set
tlement is had with Senator Clark con-
cerning the ownership of disputed

Creek Property.

f. Hill, pioneer banker and mining man
OF Salmon City, Idaho, accompanied by
Allen c.. Merritt, civil and hydraulic
turned to their Idaho home after
New Grand hotel. Mr., Hill was here
on placer mining business and Mr.. Mer-
ritt in connection with new power
project.
Mr.. Hill was successful in interesting
Salt Lake mon in $50 acres of placer
ground on Moose creek. In this ground
values extending TO depth Of sixteen
feet run from 20 cents TO so cents a
yard, an estimate that Mr.. Hill con-
siders very conservative, as some of the
ground has yielded as high as Sl.25 q
yard. These placers have been worked
in n small and desultory way for many
years, but with practically unlimited
water and fuel and modern dredging
facilities it is believed they can be
made to pay handsome returns
Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Merritt are very
optimistic as to the future of their
section of the country, especially in a
son will be very active. While tho
wonderful mining possibilities of that
region have been known for long
time, it remained for the coming of the
railroad to Gilmore and Salmon and
the opening of the Pittsburg Idaho, the
Gilmore. the Latest Ont and now the
Allie mine to bring a full realization
of the richness of the country.
Not only the Allies recent strike of
high grade gold ore, but the presence
as well IN the mines ut Gilmore of inn
mensc bodies of milling combine to at
tract attention 10 that section as never
before. Ralph H. Nichols is meeting
with success III operating the --latest
Out mine.
Both Mr.. Hill and Mr. Merritt are
firm in their faith in the future Of the
wonderful section in which they reside
and believe that with the extension of
the Gilmore & Pittsburg road down the
Salmon it wall become lannon's from an
agricultural standpoint as well as for
its mineral wealth The scenic features
of the country arc striking and impres-
sivo, The valley is walled in by mouu-
tain ranges standing like stately guar
dians on every side. Entrance and
exit from il is obtained only by climb
ing the mountain walls OF threading the
wild canyon by which the Salmon en-.
ters, or the wilder and grander one
through which it finds its way out.
