Germany Pressing On
To French Capital

M
Ia formation from the seat Of the
European conflict indicates that Ger
many is blowing Its way through the
allied forces on the French frontier.
Thus far all attempts to stop the on.
ward march Of the Germans have
proven futile, although the allied
powers claim that they are now get
ting into position to check the Ger
man advance.
But while Germany is fast making
headWay towards the French border,
seemingly with the intention OF pro-
ceeding to besieee Paris, the Russian
hordes have been sweeping down
from the north and are now threat
ening Germany from the opposite
side. Even mild sort of panic has
struck Berlin, and some Of the more
wealthy are reported to have flown
for the Scandinavian countries.
Russia's rapid movements toward
German invasion have seemingly sur
prised the Germans.
England is reported to be prepar
ing for prolonged struggle, the Eng
lish opinion tending towards the
view that Germany may infiict much
damage upon the French before theil
inroads can be checked, but believing
that in the end the Germans will be
driven back and overwhelmed.
For fifty miles along the battle
front, according to cabiegrams, thu
dead are piled in places like cord
wood.
And the outlook Is that the Killing
has scarcely begun!

When Paris Was Besieged

It was early in January Of 1870
says q writer in the Minneapolis
Daily News, one of Frances coldest
and most bitter winters Since the
18th Of September Paris had been
hemmed Id on all sides BY vast hordes
OF German troops. And she was des.
tined to hold out heroicaily, suffering
Indesdibable horrors of disease,
starvation and death, for nearly a
month longer!

Hope Deferred.
From the first of the siege, the city
was In feverish, almost hysterici
state. The newspapers published In
Ispiing promises of early suceor, oi
great victories of the French troops
in the provinces. And the next day,
these rosy stories were denied, and
the bitter truth of another defeat was
pub lished.
The reaction was one Of hopeless
depression among all the people. Tc
add to the troublGis times, the citi:
zens were never secure from bloody
uprising and riots by the rabble
There were attacks on the govern
ment officials, often actually led by
