TERRIFIC FIGHTING
STILL CONTINUES
eATTLE is INpEcIsIvE, BUT LON
DON AND PARIS REMAIN CON :
FIDENT or VICTORY.
Allies Compelled After Failure Of Az
tack to Fall Back Until Assistance
Comes; Night Attacks in
Argonne.

From the Battle Front, via Paris
The allied armies, after having per-
mitted their adHersaries. as they
thought, to exhaust themselves by
continued attacks, Tuesday took
most vigorous offensive. The British
and French encountered such strong
resistance, however, that their most
advanced detachments on the west
ern wing were compelled to fall back.
Only at this part of the long battle
line did the opposing troops actually
come into close contact.
Only laconic reference concerning
the actual fighting is made by the
French war office in its latest report
on the conflict is northern France.
THE general situation is stationary"
1t says.
OF present conditions on the left
wing Of the allies line, where a pre-
vious report had said the French had
been obliged at certain points to cede
ground to the Germans. the later war
office statement merely declares that
the action still continues. 1t adds that
3n the Argonne and Mouse regions
day and night attacks by the German
have been repulsed by the allies.
In the eastern war zone the Rus,
SLAMS report that having conquered
the Germans in Russian Poland, two
Russian armies are invading East
Prussia with Allenstein as their OBJ
jective.
In the south, on the Adriatic,
French men-of-war are reported again
to be bombarding the Austrian port
of Cattaro.
AS yet the situation surrounding
the forts at Antwerp, which are un.
der bombardment by the Germans,
has not been definitely cleared up.
The Germans still claim they have
captured several Of the outer forti.
cations, while the Belgians declare
the defenses remain intact.
The Servians still claim to be about
to capture Sarajevo, the capital of
the Austrian province of Bosnia. An
official report from Vienna says that
the Austrians are driving the Servian
and Montenegro invaders from East
Bosnia and that two Montenegro bri-
.gades were repulsed after a severe
engagement, lasting two days.

for the rest. Those who were there
say that not a single German escaped.
ct is no wonder that the Germans
have nicknamed the big French guns
in the field artillery the black butch
ers.' Their effect is terrible. The
shells they throw explode only ten
feet above the ground and spread
their missiles over an area measuring
100 yards by 30 yards. The shock OF
their expI 1sion alone often kills at
once whole row OF intrenched men. /"

Two men coming out OF Market
Square Presbyterian church one Sun
day evening had evidently heard the
Rev. ]. Ritchie Smith, D. D.. preach
for the first time. They were dis
cussing the sermon. One of them in
a surprised tone was saying:
II could understand every word he
said, and he just said 1t in the way !
would say it,
That describes the minister who oc-
cupies the pulpit at the largest Prot
estant church in the city. He is a
man of such wide and deep culture
that he speaks a simple language that
anyone understands. His sermons
frequently treat on problems that re-
quire deep thought on the part of his
audience, but his manner Of phrasing
these thoughts enables him to reach
the least educated mind.
He has quiet way of talking, but
his quiet voice has carrying power
sufficient to fill one of the largest
church buildings In the city. He has
an impressive way of talking, but
never becomes emotional or violent
in use of phrases. He is far from that.
Always it is the same, strong, force
full, cool stream of thought, sparkling
frequently with the best things of the
present and the culture of the past.
Naturally, such man appeals to men
and to men Of all classes.
The Man Himself
The man himself is one you would
like to know better IL you could. He
is pleasant and kind and anxious to
help everybody. But he is always
slightly reserved in his manner.
DR.. Smith came to this city in Jan
uary, 1900. In the past fourteen years
the congregation at Market Square
has rapidly grown. Two church colo
MES in the city have been sent out by
Market Square. They are Calvary
and Emmanuel Presbyterian churches,
both in hourishing condition.
DR.. Smith nearly became q lawyer
after he was graduated from Prince
ton in 1872. He studied for year in
offices at Baltimore, but returned to
Princeton in 1873 entering the Theo-
logical Seminary where he was gradu-
ated in 1876. He says his knowledge
of the law helps him in his work.
He has had only one other charge be-
