William Keller Served in German Army Through
 out That Conflict.
FEARS FATHERLAND
Although Believing That Germany Is SuperiOr at Arms of Any Single
 Country, MT. Keller Apprehends Coalition Will Beat Her.

Probably the only man in Pine Bluff who saw active service in the memorable Franco o-Prussian war IS William Keller of 211 West Barraque street. Mir. Keller is familiar with the happenings of that great conflict which began July 16, 1870, and con- tinued until March Ii, 1871.
 When the people of Germany were called to arms MT. Keller enlisted as harnessmaker. He was assigned to the Kingdom-SaxOn calvary, regiment No. ?. and all through the war serv- ed at his trade and in the battle field. A remarkable coincident is the fact that his father, John Keller, was also soldier in the same regiment serving in the same capacity. lie was member of the regiment TOT fifty -four years.
 Commenting on that war and the present strife that Germany is now engaged in, MT. Keller said:
 During the Franco-Prusslan war, the regiment of which l was mem Der had only about S0,O0O soldiers Today the same regiment consists of ONCT lOU,VOV. ASAA AnS~AAJ -S W fighting nation, but it is my humple opinion that the combined forces now against them will prove too much for her. Germany has al army of about 2.5OO, 900, and while this seems very | large force, the combined armies o1 the other nations lined up against her will prove too much of handl- cap" In discussing the outcome of the present war, Mir. Keller said that ii three big battles were fought with half million men on each side. that Il would require no few days to end the conflict. He said that the German 1 army is well prepared, financially and physically, and that he approved the methods employed by the kaiser in the matter.
 MT. Keller speaks with pride ol the fine men in the German army ] He said that the men are well-train
 ed, must have unblemished charac
 ters, and be almost physically perfect
 No man is admitted to the army wa
 has served a penitentiary sentence and is not regarded as an honorable citizen, said MT. Keller. Only mef
 between the ages of 21 and g year' l do active service ill the field, ape hose between 30 and 40 years, d<
 routine work, such as guarding pris
 oners, working in the camps. etc.

SHORT LINE OFFICIALS IN TOWN

On Thursday morning party OF
Short Line officials stopped in town
for twenty minutes and then went
out over the Mackay branch. The
party consisted of E. E. Calvin, vice
President and general manager of the
system; w. A. Whitney, general sup
erintendent; A. F. Brewster, super
intendent of the Utah and Montana
division; E. M. Bagley, general
claims agent; Carl Stradley, chief en-
gineer; and George H. Smith, assist
ant general attorney.
They were on tour of inspection
and passed through again in the
evening returning from the branches
west of Blackfoot. Mr.. Calvin re-
marked that Idaho is forging ahead
rapidly in building good wagon roads,
and said it was a most welcome asset
to a railroad, as it is not possible
to use a railroad unless goods can
be transported to and from the ship
ping points along the line at reason
able cost. He said in consideration
of a railroad rate case in California
recently, where the railroad company
was charging cent and half mile
for carrying ton of freight, a
fight was made on the rate, and
in the same part of the country the
average cost of hauling ton of
freight to and from the railroad was
46 cents. The argument was made
that it would afford little relief to
the farmer if the railroad hauled the
freight for cent a mile per ton
or for nothing, if they still had to
haul it by wagon over unsuitable
roads at such cost.

water. The troops must be in them
The German guns command every
foot of the territory extending along
the battle front of nearly 100 miles.
The trees that accorded cover have
been shot away in many instances.
There below the surface of the
ground, in water to their knees, their
drenched uniforms clinging to their
bodies, the British forces are logged
ly continuing their work.
The British field artillery is doing
remarkable execution, all reports say.
But up to the present moment, there
has not been any evidence of an
impending shift. The Germans are
constantly replenishing their ranks
with fresh troops brought forward
from the rear. How long this can
continue is problematical. The French
can add to their strength at least
as long as the Germans, and they
have the advantage of being far
closer to their base.
British Cruisers Sunk in North Sea
A London dispatch of Tuesday says
it has been announced by the official
bureau that three clusters, the
Hogue, Greasy and Aboukir, sister
ships, were sunk in the North Sea
by submarines.
A considerable number of the
crews were saved by H. M. s. loves
loft and a ~division of torpedo-boat
destroyers.
The three ships tonnage, arma-
ment, etc., were identical. These
vessels had displacement of $4,000
tons, were 440 feet long, with
69.9 foot beam and drew &c feet of
water. Each one had a complement
of 755 men and officers.
Their ornaments consisted of two
nine-inch guns, twelve six-inch guns,
twelve 12-pounders and five three
Founders. The Aboukir and the
Greasy were BUILT at Govan, in 1900
and the Hogue was built at Barrow
in the same year.

BATTLE is AT HIGH TIDE

London-Across the channel in
northern France, the greatest battle
in modern history continued tonight
with nearly three million men fight
ing to an apparent draw. An iron
clad censorship drew heavy curtain
across the stage. But as it swung
here and there, enough was revealed
to indicate tragedy which will
stagger humanity was progressing.
Beginning as a rear guard last
Monday along the lines of defense
hurriedly constructed by the German
sappers when it became certain vic
tory was not to perch on the kaiser's
banner in what is now known as the
battle of the Marine, the fighting by
Tuesday had become general. Daily
it has increased until tonight, it
seems that the high tide must be ap-
preaching. The stern set faces of the
chief officials of the war office, from
Kitchener of Khartoum himself,
down, reject the realization that the
flower of the great British army is
in life and death struggle. True,
there is nothing in the nature of
despair. Everyone is supremacy con-
fident that the outcome of the battle
will be the driving out of France of
the German army. But it is ex-
pected England will pay the price as
every official scrap of information
available shows that, as it was in the
days of the retreat from Namur to
the southwest of Paris, it is the
British army that is bearing the
brunt of the conflict.
So anxious are the Germans to
break the power of resistance of Eng
lands war machine, that night as
saults are added to the terrors of
the day. But at no time have they
gained their object. The British al
ways have been ready for them and
have taken terrible toll for their
losses. Steadily, yard by yard, as
though in gigantic football game,
the British line has gained. It's front
is a mass of dead and wounded Ger
mans. The muddy, torn and
trampled is covered with the invad-
ers who have felt the accuracy of
the British rifle fire and the weight
of the British bhyonets.
All week the battle has been car
ried on in the rain. The cold for
NAL language of the official state
ment today emphasized the weather
conditions. "The weather is bad and
it is raining continuously" 1t said.
But officers who know exactly what
is going on declare this merely hints
at the situation. The trenches on
both sides are simply filled with
