EUREKA BOY IN AMERI-
GAN DIPLOMATIC SERVICE
Ray Baker, Native Son, Secretary
To New American Ambassador
At Russian Capital

A Washington d. c. correspondent
has the following TO say Of the pro-
gressiveness and popularity of the
son of the late George Baker. a for
mer resident and prominent attorney
of Eureka.
Ray T. Baker of Nevada has gone
away to St Petersburg. and half of
Washington said pleasant farewells
to him in person. He has been one
of the popular men of the capital,
and in time would have rivaled John
Barrett, Director of the Pan Ameri-
can Union. as a good fellow and as
a social lion When it comes TO a
handsome personality and engaging
manners, John Barrett has nothing
on Ray Baker. And Washington
speculates over what his triumphs
will be in the gay northern capital.
where he goes as secretary to the
new American Ambassador, George
T. Marye.
Baker has been serving for acouple
of years as secretary to the Terri
tories Committee, of which Senator
Pittman of Nevada is chairman
Nevada people know something of
his previous career. which was al
together romantic. and also of some
public service. He was warden of
the Nevada Penitentiary and intro
| duced reforms there such as paroling
prisonersf for work outside. Ii proved
successful, and has been adopted in
other States.
Somehow or other. Baker got ac-
quainted with nearly everybody
worth while after he came to Wash
ington. while other Committee Sec
retaries spent their time grinding
away at routine work. One saw
Baker everywhere that notable peo-
pie were gathered. Be looked a
Beau Brummel in any company. and
seemed on friendly terms with every
body who was on the inside Indeed,
it became something of a distinction
to know Ray Baker and enjoy his
confidence.
He was much with California peo-
pie. For a while he sought a consul
ship. and had enlisted the aid of Rep
resentatives Raker and Kent. What
he has gotten now is far better than
a consulship.
1t is a fair assumption that he will
be speaking French and Russian flu
entity within a month after he reaches
St. Petersburg and that Russian
noblemen will be vieing for an oppor-
tunity to gain his intimate friend
ship.

Bridge Aisne River Under Whitening Fire

A special war dispatch to the London Times sent from Havre
under date of September 16. says:
To the story of the battle of the Marine must be added that of
the Aisne river crossing, which was on a scale such as never before
has been seen in the world.
The time was Saturday evening and the moment had arrived
when, if the fleeing host was to be saved, a stand Of some sort must
be made. The enemy gathered hurriedly together for a great effort
on the heights that overlook the river. He had his guns in place
and his men ready when our troops and those of our ally reached
the south bank Of the river.
Clearly it was essential to the Allies that the crossing should
victory was to be pressed home. Consider what the attack meant
The river was swollen and running swiftly after the recent heavy
rains. Bridges must be built under a whitening fire. They must
be maintained unchanged. They must be crossed, and all vantage
points were held by men rendered desperate, fighting for their very
lives.
1t was a terrible prospect, but it did not daunt our splendid
forces.
The attack began on Sunday morning with all the citation and
dash which characterized the great struggle of the week before
Our guns were brought up and placed in position and a terrific
duel opened; for SO long as the German artillery remained unsil-
enced the hope of efectng a passage was slight indeed.

The battle front extends from the region OF Noyon to the Pia-
teau north of Vic Sur Aisne and from scissors lie Masslf and Laon
to the heights north and west of Rheims; another line runs from
the district north of Villa Sur Tourbe to the west of the Argonne
region and then along a third line north of Varennes. just evacuated
BY the Germans, to the River Meuse at a point near Forges' north
of yerdun.
Along this whole front the fighting has been forced upon the
Germans. principally because of the resistance offered by the fort
ress of Troyon, IL miles southeast Of Verdun, which will go down
into history as the Lege of France.
By this victory of the Allied forces the Germans are compelled
to accept but one line of retreat. This is in the Dorth pass by
Stenay, through which they might reach Lumemburg or Thionville
by way of Longuyon or Longwy.
The German line, consisting originally of General Won Klucks
army and part of that of General Won Buelow, has been reinforced
BY practically all of the army of invasion remaining east OF the
Forest of Argonne, while those occupying positions between the
Argonne and the Meuse are preparing second line of defense upon
which the western division of the great army may retire if the al
lied advance cannot be halted.
Indian troops to the number of 10000 (estimated), brought
from the south of Asia at India'a expense to reinforce the British
line, are now on the way to the seat of war, according to advices to
Sir John French from the British War Office.
Rains, which have continued for three days, have swollen the
