With Their Armies on Eastern Bat
tie Ground.
London. Dec 2. The battle III
northern Poland, concerning the pro-
sress of which there has been mucn
mystery, is now being fought out I'M
der the eyes of the German emperor
ON the one side, and the Russian en-
peror on the other.
These two monarchs left for the
front, so that virtually the heads OF al
the nations at war are with the troops
at present, as the king of England is
in France; the king of Belgium as
usual. is spending all his time with
his soldiers, while President Pom
care. of France, started for another
visit to the northern battlefield.
Official news from Poland continues
to be scanty, and with both head
quarters claiming success, 1t is I'M
possible to say how the battle is go
ing. OF its intensity, however. there
can be no doubt.
The Germans, when they started
IF Warsaw, dashed full tilt into
mass of Russian troops and forced
their way so far in that the Russians
closed on them. This was taken In
Petrograd to mean that some OF the
German divisions had been cut on and
that their surrender or annlh1lation
was inevitable.
It appears, however, that, fighting
for their very lives and In the knowl'
edge that a great defeat would end
the German offensive and compel them
to fall back on their own frontiers,
the German troops succeeded In
breaking through the Russian lines
near Lodz, and at another In holding
their entertainments against all the
Russian attacks. Their TANKS are stu
being harrassed by the Cossacks. but
seemingly the Russians are not now
IN . position to gain the sweeping
victory they had anticipated.
The losses with the desperate fight
ing that has been going on for a fort
night must necessarily be very heavy
on both sides.
AGAINST the Austro-German forces
In the south the Russians continue to
Rain more decisive results. They are
now in possession Of all the Austrian
positions protecting the Carpathian
posses and are said to have arrived
abreast of Cracow, while their cap
lures for three weeks number $4,000
men.
Another wireless report from Ber-
lin says that the latest reports from
Russian Poland given out In the kais.
er's capital indicate that the Germans
have resumed the execution of their
plan to encompass the Russian right
flank and to force 1t back on the cen.
ter, at the same time cutting on the
Russians communication with War.

Tomcod fishermen in Augusta are
patiently awaiting the annual coming
of those fish to the head of tide water
in the Kennebec river which is
Augusta, in order that the fishing
season may begin. AS the tomcods,
in their annual migrations to the fresh
water of the river during the spawning
season, reach Augusta the first days
of January, they are now due in two
weeks, and the fishermen are busy
with the work of preparing to catch
them, the apparatus used being simply
a pole with hook attached to one end,
the hook in many cases being simply
a piece of wire sharpened at one end,
with which the fish are hooked from
the water and thrown out upon the
ice where the fisherman stands. In tho
old days the tomcod fishery was
source of no small amount of revenue
to the people of the section of the city
known as Sand Hill, as the fish were
caught by the sled load and hauled
inland where they found ready sale
to the people OF those places, and even
now. though they are seldom caught
in quantities sufficient to retail to the
above extent, they help out consider
ably on the weekly store bill while
the season lasts. There are other fish
ermen also that keep sharp lookout
for the coming of the tomcods, and
these are the seagulls that frequent
the coast and make frequent trips up
the kennebec in search OF food During
the season they are often seen IN
flocks below the Kennebec dam and
get a good living on the little fish as
long as they frequent that section
Shelldrakes. which are also fish eaters,
find their way to the shoal water below
the dam as long as the tomcods are
running, so that it will be seen that be-
tween the three classes of fishermen
mentioned above the tomcod that sue
ceeds in reaching the spawning ground
and returning in safety to salt water
is surrounded with a certain element
of luck.
