GERMANSFORCED
OUT Of TRENCHES
BY DRIVING RAIN
Allies Take Advantage of Bad Weather

en- by French and English in Driv-
ing Rain.
(By Associated Press)

PARIS, Nov. 17.-Oficial communi-
cations received here this afternoon
say that the heavy rainfall near Dix
nude compelled the Germans to abon-
don some of their trenches there. The
few soldiers who attempted to remain
in them were drowned by a sudden
rush of water.
In addition to losing the trenches in
this region it is reported that several
important German breastworks in the
Argonne district have been destroyed
by mines laid by the Allies.
The Allies have made steady gains
in spite of the almost unbearable
weather. Today at Bixschoote and
south of the Ypres they repulsed the
Germans who attempted to cross the
river in a driving rain and snow storm.
The French have also made material
gains in the district to the south of
the Muese and Verdun.

AMERICAN WOUNDED
BY GREASER BULLET
(By Associated Press.)

UACO, Ariz., Nov. 1.-THE Oppos-
ing Maytorena and Hill forces resumed
firing opposite Naco this morning, and
a stray bullet flying over the American
border struck Mrs. A. F, Krohn, wife of
a local railroad official in the head.
The wound inflicted is not regarded as
serious.
The wounding of Mrs. Krohn today
makes the eleventh American injured
by flying bullets since the beginning
of the fighting between Maytorena, reb-
ell governor of Sonora, and Gen. David
Hill, who is in command of the Mexi-
can federal (Carranza) forces. Warn
ings heretofore given the two military
leaders seem to have had little eff
feet in preventing repetition of such
accidents to Americans and formal
protest will likely be made to the state
department by local residents.

SIMPLICITY DOMINANT
At FUNERAL SERVICE
OF PRESIDENTS WIFE
Pastors Pay Brief Tribute to
Character of Mrs. Wood
row Wilson at East Room
Service.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 10-The
gentle and tender simplicity which
ran like silver thread through her
character, was a dominant note at the
! last rites for Mrs. Woodrow Wilson,
held in the East room of the White
| House today
Only her kinsfolk and a chosen few
| OF the closest friends and officials of
! Washington, in addition to delegates
from the senate and house Of repre-
! sentatives, were present at the cere-
mony.
Massed with flowers, the bier was
! placed at the North end of the East
| room, and near by the President, his
| three daughters, and the relatives were
| gathered.
With bowed heads they heard a
chapter from the scriptures and a
| prayer delivered by a pastor who has
shared their intimate family joys and
sorrows.
Tomorrow the body will be laid in
its final resting place in Rome, Co.,
the childhood home of Mrs. Wilson
| and where her father and mother are
buried. She will be buried from the
| church of which her father was pastor
for many years. The funeral train
leaves Washington at 4:35 o'clock to-
day.
Nearly two hundred persons, incluG-
| ing the official delegation were pres
ent at the services today.
Besides the president, secretary and
| Mrs. McAdoo and Mrs. Frances Bowes

Stockton Axon. brother Of Mrs. Will
| son, Jos. r. Wilson, George Howe and
Edward Wilson.
The fifteenth chapter of the first
| book Of Corinthians and a chapter Of
st. John were the scriptural readings
by the Rev. DR.. Taylor. Prayer was
| offered by DR.. Beach and a brief ap-
praisement of the life and character
of Mrs. Wilson.
There was no singing. At an early
hour today the coffin was taken from
| the death chamber to the East room,
where it was banked by the floral
pieces which poured in upon the white
house in great numbers. The pallbear-
ers were the old policemen who have
served at the white house for many
years and whose friendship Mrs. Will
son had won. There were no honorary
pallbearers.
The nation added fitting tribute to
the memory of Mrs. Wilson. The halls
of congress were silent and all the
government departments closed at
o'clock as mark of respect to the
dead.

WOMAN ARRESTED
FOR TAKING HORSE

Deputy Sheriff Returns May
Webster From Dayton
Where She Had Driven the
Stolen Animal.

Women are rapidly demonstrating
their right to exercise the suffrage.
Having entered all legitimate and IL
legitimate occupations belonging to
men and a few others besides there
have graduated women pick-pockets,
uetty thieves and shop lifters.
The first known women horse thief
was arrested yesterday. She is May
Webster, 80, home unknown, occupa-
tion housekeeper, type as described by
sheriff. trashy looking" blonde and
very self possessed.
May Webster came here two months
ago she says from some point she will
not reveal. About ten days ago she
went to work for William Marsh on
county. With her was her three year
old daughter.
Mrs. Webster became deeply engag-
ed in whatever of Marsh's affairs she
could probe. Thursday Marsh left
home early on business. He had hard.
ly passed through the gate at the
end of the lane before Mrs. Webster
had her belongings packed.
Boy Hitehes Horse.
She called in a neighbor boy whom
she told she had to go to town to buy
groceries. He hitched a horse to the
best buggy Marsh owned. Mrs. Web
ster then took her child and departed.
When she did not return Marsh not
ified the sheriff who sent out des-
criptions Immediately. Mrs. Webster
was arrested south Of Dayton and
taken to the Montgomery county Jail
by the sheriff of that county.
She told deputy sheriff Mote yester-
day when he brought her back to
Richmond, that she was on her way to
Cincinnati She said first that she
had slept out in the open Thursday
night but later said that she had
stayed with a farmer.
Mrs. Webster left Dayton without
a requisition and her attitude was
that of one who had previously under
gone arrest. She will be taken before
Judge Fox in circuit court the last Of
this week. She is being kept in the
woman's prison.
1t is believed Mrs. Webster took a
route along traction lines so that she
could find transportation Immediately
should she have sold the horse The
horse was exhausted by the long drive
and was left near Dayton.

TO ALLOW
USE OF PRISONERS
County Commissioners Show
Works Board Way to Get
Weeds Cut.

Contrary to the expectations Of the
board of public works. the board OF
county commissioners late Saturday
decided that Richmond is not entitled
to the use of prisoners in cutting the
weeds on the vacant lots of the city.
The commissioners hold that prop
erty owners are supposed to have
enough civic pride to cut the weeds
but admit this condition does not
exist. For this, however, laws have
been enacted. they point out. The city
may order and is supposed to order
the cutting of weeds. The expense
should be charged against the property
on taxes, according to law.
The city may use prisoners how
ever, to cut weeds on property belong
ing to the municipality. So little prop
erty does the city own, this could be
accomplished by q few prisoners in
half a day.
The board of works members be-
lieved, that by representing Richmond
as being part of Wayne county, they
could make free use of the prisoners
in weed cutting.

PRICES On MARKET

Glen Miller Yard Dealings
Reflect Tendency and
General Conditions.

Business was active at the Glen Mil
Ter Stock Yards last week. The total
receipts of live stock were as follows:
1872 hogs at 9 cents.
% cattle at 6 cents.
SO lambs at Z cents.
46 calves top sales at $40.
The prices paid to farmers for stock
brought in during the week totaled
$24,79283.
Wayne county will be represented
by eight car loads of hogs, calves and
lambs on the Pittsburg market today,
all shipped from the Glen Miller
Yards.
A number of large consignments of
hogs were brought in by Wayne
county farmers.
DR.. Fouts of Centerville, delivered
140 hogs from his farm at Economy,
which brought him $2,7O2.30.

Markets All Strong.
Quotations received at the yards this
morning from the large shipping cen
ters, indicated strong market in spite
of large numbers on hand. In Cincin-
natl top hogs were selling at $3.50, and
heavy packers 1915: Chicago had 49,
900 hogs with 1900 estimated receipts
for tomorrow, and tops selling at So
95. Indianapolis reported 1000 with
the bulk of sales ranging from 80 80 to
$1,000. Pittsburg had 10000 hogs with
tops selling at $105O.
Jerome Shurley, manager of the
yards. expressed the opinion this morn
ing. that hog prices would be even
higher ut is a purely speculative mar
ket at the present time" he said.
The market is subject to quick
breaks, and it is hard to predict future
prices The European war will be
bound to bring higher prices on meat
products, and the local scarcity of corn
would mean higher prices under ordi-
nary conditions. Furthermore, mark ct
hogs are scarce in the country. If the
majority of farmers hold their hogs,
prices are bound to go higher yet in
the cape between now and the time
that new corn will be availa BILE"
Reflects Corn Shortage.
A reflection of the condition existing
as a result Of present high prices is
the fact that farmers who are short
OF corn are marketing stock hogs, that
are not in any shape to kill These
hogs will not produce anything like
the meat they should, and their sale is
bound to curtail the supply of feeder
hogs on the farms. which will mean a
hog shortage next year.
