WILL NEVADA COUNTY HAVE
 MOTION PICTURES AT EXPO.
C. (. Hamby, Commissioner for Ne vada Receives Letter w. D. Hart wock Giving Plans Making
 Motion Pictures in State

One of the plans adopted by the Arkansas Commission to the Panama Pacific exposition to advertise the re- sources of the state is to take motion pictures in the various counties for exhibition in the Arkansas building The Commission has closed a contract with the Pathe-F -Freres Company, one of the largest in the world engaged in that line of work, and W. D. Hart wick, of Little Rock, has been placed ln charge of the business end of the project.
 The pictures are to be shown contin- uously, explained by lecturcc, and accompanied hy large electric light ed map. A charge of $2 per foot for the film will be made, to be paid by the individual, corporation, or county. It is contemplated that enough pictures will be secured to take the spectator on a tour of the state, familiarizing him with all it's natural, industrial. commercial and educational facilities.
 C. C. Hamby is the commissioner of Nevada county and if you feel inter- ested in this matter see him and dis cuss this picture proposition. The film company will send a representa- tive to us any time we may designate and take whatever pictures we desire to have made. At this time of the year when the harvest is ready, some good pictures could be secured and the county would get more direct results for the money expended on this fea- ture, than any other way that can be conceived.

 SION TO BE EXTENDED

Little Rock, Sept 5.-The work of the Hookworm Commission is to be ex tended at once to the counties of Mont gomery, Yell, Van Bure, Franklin. Madison, Marion, and Greene.

RUSSIAN FORCES TAKE
 LEMBURG AND ITS FORTS
Capture 200 Guns From Retreatinr Austrians and Many Thousand Prisoners. Houses are Full
 of the Wounded.

Petrograd (St. Petersburg), via London, Sept. 1.-The Russian Gener- al Staff today issued the following ac- count of the fighting which led to the capture of Lemberg, capital of Cali cia:
 Tn the offensive against the Lub- lin-kholm front, the main Austrian forces deployed on the Zavichost. Tan off, Bielgoray, Tomachoff and Belz line. The second Austrian army con- prising the Third, Eleventh and Twelf tn Corps, and five divisions of cavalry. gathered east of Lemburg to cover this action.
 When the Russian troops were talk ing the offensive, the Austrian concen- tration had not been completed. and typographical considerations compelled the enemy to reinforce this army still more with the troops of the Seventh Thirteenth and Fourteenth Corps, thus making a total of 12 divisions and full brigades of the Landstrum.
 Continuous Fighting 17 Days
 Our troops in the Lonthk, Dubno and ProSluroff districts crossed the frontier August 20, and marched on Lomberg to thwart the Austrian GOV ering movement and to act against the flank of the enemy This offensive was hampered by numerous affiuents of the Dnister river. Moreover, the enemy possessed, on the Dniester, a series of Notifications destined to de- fend the bridges, from which they menaced the Russian left flank and communication with Russia.
 "In the period between August IT and September 8, the Russian left wing advanced 220 versts (about 147 miles), fighting all the time The bulk of the hostile forces entrenched | in powerful positions at Kamenka and Galitch offered battle and were thor oughly defeated in a desperate contest.
 Between August 31 and September 1, in one district of the upper course of the Guilpa Lipa alone where the ienemy's line was broken, the Austrians lost 1,200 killed and wounded
 Second Austrian Army Useless
 "The retreat of the enemy after his defeat at Lem5erg was a disorderly flight and panic and the Russians took 200 guns, together with the baggage and tens of thousands of prisoners. It is believed that the remnant of the Second Austrian Army is now no longer of any military value
 "On September ?, when the Russians were drawing mp within cannon shot of Lemberg. the surrounding forts did not stop this advance.
 "The same day Lemberg was close ly surrounded by Russian troops and was captured with numerous quanti- ties of war munitions. All the build ings in the town were packed with Austrian wounded, who had been abandoned in the enemy's headlong flight.
 Stragetic Value of Lemberg.
 Besides the political and military importance of Lemberg as the center of Galicia, its capture is important stragetically, as it constitutes great railway junction, commanding the lines leading to the rear of the Aus trian army, which now is halted in line with Opole, Gamostic and Belz.
 "The capture of Lemberg will en- able the Russian army to push for ward with still greater intensity"

PRAYERS OFFERED FOR PEACE.

the speedy restoration of peace in Europe

Rev. DIR. Whitley, pastor of the Lutheran

All of the speakers expressed the view
that the present conflict between the

that the sacrifice of life and property is
mere wanton and unnecessary destruc-
ton.
MIR Andrews said he would pray that
experience would teach nations to adopt
form of government where not one man
but the whole people should say whether
Or not war should be declared He COM
plimented the form of government of
this country that this was more possible
here. He deplored the event which cul-

BRICKS PILED ON WHARF.
Nearly Million Ready to Be Used in
New Central High School,

So great has been the accumulation of
bricks belonging to the District, on the
property wharf at the foot of 10th street
southwest. that it would be difficult to
find room for many more, and as con-
sequence the shipment of them from the
plant at the District workhouse at Deco
guam, Va, to this city has been tenn
porarily stopped. The bricks are to be
used in the construction of the new Cen
trail High School, and have been arriving
here by the scow load for several weeks,
and it is estimated that there are 995, $50
bricks piled on the wharf.
AS yet the hauling of the bricks from
the wharf to the site of the new school
building has not been started, but it is
expected that the taking of them uptown
will be begun within the next few days.
1 is stated that no shipment of brick
from Occoquan to this city will be made
in the next two weeks, and not then un-
less considerable number have been
hauled away from the wharf.

IN OCEAN-TO-OCEAN TRADE.
American Schooner, Coal Laden
Going Through Panama Canal.

The four-masted schooner Dorothy
Barrett, one of the feet that has been
employed in the transportation of coal
from the Chesapeake to New England
ports, will be the first American coasting
schooner to enter the coal trade between
the Atlantic and the Pacific through the
Panama canal. The vessel was recently
chartered to load coal at Norfolk for
Seattle, and with a cargo of nearly 5000
tons of the fuel aboard she is now on her
way to Panama. 1t is expected that the
big schooner will secure return cargo
of lumber at Seattle for an Atlantic
coast port and that she will be five or
six months making the round trip.
The Barrett,s new business is of par
ticular interest here, as a number of
Washington people are owners in the YES
sci. She is one of the few schooners in
the coasting trade equipped with wire
less the outfit having been installed
when Capt. Walter Irvine was her COM
mander.
Capt. Irvine retired from the command
of the Barrett about 4 year ago.
