This association was founded to
oppose the enactment Of State wide
prohibition in Virginia. Its members
held the conviction that the law did
Niolanc" to the principle OF local rule
which is the foundation of our State
government. The association believed,
moreover, that Statewide prohibition
would not serve the ends OF true tenn

mits each community to settle the
liquor question in accordance with tho
will OF its local majority.
The association stiil adhcrcs to this

to hold different views. They have

LONDON. September 22 ts:i5 p. NJ.
Tho daring raid OF German subma-
rincs across the North Sea, which re-
suited to-day In the sinking OF the
British cruisers Aboukir Hogue and
Greasy has diverted attention momen-
tarily from the battlefclda of the Con-
tinent.
NIhis was one OF the things the
British navy had been led to expect
for the Germans frankly had avowed
that their plan was to reduce British
naval superiority by submarine raids
and the sowing OF mines. and they have
been training their young officers for
ssllics of this kind
Nevertheless, II came as a shock to
Englishmen that big ships such as
those sunk could so easily be attacked
and destroyed, while the German fleet
has remained in safety in its mine
and fortress-protected harbors
However, the British feet must keep
10 the seas to insure great Britain's
food supply, and in doing so must run
great risks.
The ships sunk, while obsolete, still
were useful vessels, and 1t is little
satisfaction to England to know her
cruiser feet still is double in number

Winston Spencer Churchill, First Lortl-of
the Admiralty, has said, she will he

NO IalPORTANT CHANGE
on THE BATTLE FRONT
Meantime, there have been no i'm
portant changes Nhe battle fronts
in Northern France. The opposing
armies continue to gain little here
and lose little there. These gains
may tell in the long run, but have
brought no decisive result for either
side.
The French official report issued late
to-day again lays some stress on the
announcement that an advance is be-
Ing made by the allies left wing on
the right bank Of the River Oise from
which point both the public and the
military experts look for first indica-
tons of how the battle is likely to
end
Although official reports do not go
beyond saying that the Germans have
heen forced to give ground before the
French attacks and speak OF Noyon
and the district around that city as the
centre of operations, some correspond

Regulations governing the con-
struction and maintenance Of floating
baths the coming season were laid
before a gathering Of proprietors Of
private bathing beaches and floating

sioner Haven Emerson in the Depart,
ment Of Health to-day.
BY strict compliance with these reg
ulations, owners Of the floating style
OF baths may obtain permits. but
Health Commissioner 0oldwater and
his deputy have decided not to retire
from their previously announced DO
sitions In regard to bathing beaches
In the North. East and Harlem Rivers
and tho shores Of the Upper Bay
where Il will be impossible to purify
the water. No permits for baths in
condemned sections will be issued un-
der any condition.
The floating bath regulations which
will be Presented to tho Board of
Health tomorrow provide that the
baths must be alright to prevent
the pollution Of the pool from outside
sources. All waste water from the

Although most Of the floating pool
proprietors who wero present at the
meeting argued against the expense
OF the regulations. there was only
ono who said that Il would be I'M
possible to comply with the Health
Department demands. He was James

.CHAS. ANDRUS
COURTS 2 GIRLS
T. Is LANDS IN JAIL
Harry Giblin, Manchester, n. H.,
Discharged in Assault and
Battery Case :

Harry T. Giblin of Manchester. N.
H.. was arraigned before Judge Lam
caster of the municipal court Tuesday
morning TO answer TO charge of as
sault and battery preferred against
him by Mrs. Eva Lajoie of Mt Vernon
avenue, and to which he pleaded not
guilty. The respondent represents a
firm which makes engagements of por-
traits, and the trouble which was aired
in court Tuesday morning evidently
grew out of the refusal of the COM
plainant to take a portrait which had
been made from a photograph furn-
ished by her and a like refusal on the
part of the respondent to return the
photograph. The situation was still
further complicated by the fact that
the respondent could not understand
the French language and : the COM
plainant the English language. After
the case had been gone into at some
length and several witnesses examined
the court found no cause to hold the
respondent and he was accordingly
discharged.
InSthe afternoon the attention ,of the
court Was taken up with two cases,
the charge in one of which was Islander
and inN the other larceny. The re-
spondent' in the two cases was the
same-one Charles Andrus, a member
of the Polish colony of the city,
The complainant in the Islander
case was Emma Barron. who claimed
that she was engaged to the respond
ent and that they had been once pub
lished in church: that the respondent
had sail all manner of slanderous and
scandalous things about her. She also
claimed that he had wanted to Dor
row money of her and that she had
refusedNto lend it to him. Andrus de-
MED the allegations of the complain
ant, and as the latter had no evidence
to offer in support of her claims the
case was dismissed on that account.
In the larceny case the complainant
was Anna Jawniuk, who claimed that
Andrus got money of her and that he
also took it from her purse when she
was not present. She further claim
ed that she and the respondent were
engaged to be married and that they
were engaged at the time that they
came to Augusta from Lawrence,
Mass, two weeks gao. Andrus denied
the truth of the charge against him
and pleaded not guilty, but the evil
dence, which was through the medium
of an interpreter, was against him and
he was adjudged guilty and given a.
sentence of 80 days in Jail.

Means of Subsistence

The supply house is of much interest
to visitors on the grounds for there
the food supplies are stacked to the
selling, showing how great is the
problem of feeding these 500 men. This
year for the first time the United
States government has issued supplies
for the Maine camp SO that the quail
ity of flood which the militiamen re-
ceive is on the same high. grade as
that which the regular army men
have. The beef is the finest of Argen-
line steer, chilled, and of this the mel
consume about 700 pounds per day.
The butter is the best of creamery
and the coffee is the finest of the gov
eminent inspected. In the cooking
only inspected lard is used.
Bags of flour in this supply house
are piled almost to the ceiling. Su-
gar is stored in 100-pound sacks in
one part of the house and near at
hand are high stacks of flavoring ex-
tracts. The camp has in store a fine
line of jam, peaches. pears, aprieots
and canned vegetables. Capt. Sin
giles, United States Army, has charge
of subsistence and the quartermaster's
supplies and is assisted by Regimental
Commissary Sargent J. p. Grenier of
Augusta, and Sargent ]. A. McDougall
