While in Salina, Kan, last week
Tom Paschall met with rather an
amusing experience. He stepped
into a real estate office, aud the
real estate man engaged him in
conversation. Upon finding out that
he was from Colorado he at once
advised him to take the $50 train
from town, as the sheriff had just
informed him to be on the lookout
for a Colorado real estate man,
who answered Mr.. Pascball's de-
scription. Mr.. Paschall says he
thought over ever thing he had
ever done in his whole life-but
couldn't for the life of him think
why any sheriff should want him
and then he grabbed that $50 train.

REPORTS SHOW AN AGREEMENT
AS TO PROGRESS OF BATTLE

LONDON, September 30. 1853 pm
For the first time IN this war Of mine
nations there 10 today some concord
ance in the drift Of the reports from
the headquarters of the three armies
holding tho center of the stage In
France. which is still the theater where
the most important operations arc in
progress. It is. however. to be noted
that corroboration by ono side Of the
claims Of tho other is largely mega
tive.
THE French advances from verdun
and Toul have been renewed" IL the
German oficial report of yesterdays
fighting on the eastern end of the line,
and the communication of Gen. Joffre,
commander-in-chief of the French
forces, agrees with it in the statement
that his troops have made slight
progress in that field.
At the other end of the. 250-mile line
the allies "are holding their own" is
the report from British headquarters
and the Berlin announcement seems in
directly to admit this claim by an
nouncing that the battles on this end
have been indecfsfve.
In the center the French commander
in-chief claims slight progress. Ac-
oording to another version of, the re-
port from the German headquarters,
the French attacks from Verdun and
Toul have been repulsed.
Confirmation of a news agency story
that the German right wing had been
broken and was in flight is still lack

ticism of this report. although they
consider the breaking of the German
right wing would be only a natural
result Of the great tdrning movement.
