REINFORCENENTS FR0N COLONIES
Of POWERFUL ALLIES DEPENDED
upon TO Bring ABOUT VICTORY
Teutons' Resources, SO far as Men are Con
cerned, are Expected to Give Out

London, Oct. 49, The onslaughts
Of the armies battling for mastery in
the Belgian marshlands still lack the
force necessary to score a victory. The
Germans have not reached the French
coast, nor have the allies frustrated
their determination to attain this goal.
Nevertheless, British observers be
lieve the advantage rests with the al
lied troops
The Germans assent to this IS, Of
course, only negative in character and
takes the shape Of confession of the
failure to achieve their object to
break through their opponents de-
fepses. That the reported lull in the
fighting in this region is only momen-
tary is taken for granted, but up to
the present time no news Of a renewal
of the German assault has come to
hand. Both sides seem to be endeaV-
oring to line up afresh, and accounts
from all sources agree that the Ger
mans are only waiting additional
troops to resume their bold thrust.
Meanwhile the allied commanders
announce that their rorces are always
taking a little more the offensive and
they intimate that it will not be long
before they substitute an attack on
the Germans position in an engage
ment for the general attack in all po-
positions in the north of France. If
this occurs, there will recommence
then a series of siege battles for the
German entertainments which gridiron
Belgium along it's southern boundary.
German Gun Expod4s
From Madrid comes an ancontirm-
ei story Of the explosion Of one of
the German 16-inch howitzers. which
possibly explains the extremely vio-
lent convulsion which was supposed
at the time to indicate the blowing up
Of the pier at Zeebruge. According 70
the Madrid account, this gun. which
vas being used on the German riSht
wing, was oyercharged and exploded.
The concussicn killed all the gun
crews in the vicinity some 25O men,
besides killing and wounding mum
her Of men at a considerable distance.
Russia Resumes Attack
The German retirement from Poland
and the resumption OF the offensive
by Russia all along the eastern battle
front is generally ascribed in London
to the enormous reserves brought up
by the Russian commanders. Instead
OF two completely exhausted armies
facing each other along vistula, as has
happened frequently on the banks Of
the Aisne, the Russians MAKE daily
changes, bringing regiments from the
rear and thus allowing the fighters II
the trenches to retire and rest This
operation is said to have been .epeat.

CULLING RANGES OF
 HORSES FOR EUROPE
Northern Arizona Cattleman Is Gathering Herd of Range
 StcCk for War.

PRESCOTT. Nov. 17.-"In the An vii Rock country, approximately 3Ol head of horses. broke and unbroke are being rounded up at the present time for shipment to Europe for war uses" said John s. Hummer yester day, the rangeman from that section
 The buyer is R. E. Daggs, who rep resents an Oregon firm, and who re- turned yesterday from the Verde country, after closing a big deal The latter said. "It makes but little diff ference whether the equines are in the broncho rating or not After they are placed aboard ship, the remedy to subdue the fractious ones is ap- piled in one of the most novel ways. Six days on the ocean is all that is required to make the busters as doc ile as a kitten. which fact has been proven in many instances where ship ments have been made to Europe The vicious nature of the horses seems to have been conquered after voyage of say sixty days or more, and when they are placed on land are submissive to saddle or harness. Their loco nature has disappeared, and they aer fit for any purpose de- sired
 Daggs will get the 1000 head quota from the county, making in the aggre- gate 5000 head from the northern counties Had it not been for the destruction of many hundred head of young colts by the mountain lions in different sections of this county. ful. ly 5000 good range horses womld have been secured here As condi- tions exist 1t is practically impossible to raise range horses owing to the above evil and Daggs states he is fort unate to purchase as many as have been rounded up to the present time.

COL, BILL CODY IS
 ATTRACTION IN FILM

Colonel Bill Cody, Arizona's Buffalo Bill, had his first automobile ride in the spring of the year 1907. It took his friends just three years 10 pur- suade the old scout that he was safe on the cushions of the motor driven car And even then, after he had rid en several hundred miles. he com plained that the saddle didn't fit just right. and that the stirrups were too blamed short"
 Last night there were fully two hundred automobile loads of people who went to the Lowell theatre to see Colonel Bill Cody on his white pony. where the saddle and the stir rups were just to T what the scout demanded. and where the automobile had never been dreamed of. The largest crowd that has ever turned out in Lowell gathered from the whole of the Warren district last evening to see the stories of the Indian wars in which the greatest scout of the ages played his part.
 The general expression of the pub lie on the picture could not but be heard. It was universal approval. None of the patrons of the theatre who rushed to the war scenes in which their forefathers had played such thrilling part was heard to say other wise. But, it would be hard to define the general or universal ground Tor inc approval of the picture
 To some it was a picture of great success because of the grandeur or inc staging. Others were appealed to by the acting and it's great scope stu others believed that the work m which art made the picture wonderful was wholly in the historical setting. And it is an inevitable conclusion that action added, with it's thrills anu great diversity. all others comDiheu for the making of the production IL really is. .d
 The same production will be staged ai the Lowell this afternoon and even ing.

SOB STORIES WE'LL
 HANDLED BY YOUTH
Escaped From State Officer He Bids for Popular Good
 Will of CaptOrS.

TUCSON, Nov. 17.-Another new and weepy tale of woe was handed out yesterday to visitors at the coun ty jail by Cecil Cobie the 16-year-old Douglas lad, who ran away after be- ing committed to the state reform school for refusing to attend school and who was captured Wednesday and brought back to Tucson by Spe- cial Officer Day of the Espee of Maricopa.
 Cecils original tear-proyoking sto- ry is that he was on his way to Phoenix to visit his mother on her deathbed. This was the story he told Officer Day, accompanying it with genuine tears, although the hard hearted officer did not allow himself to be moved
 Yesterday at the county jail Cecil had a new story concocted which was wetter than the story of the Pima county returns in the election. Cecil told it this way:
 "You see, l stayed out of school to earn money for my sick mother, who lives at Douglas. She is paralyzed and her hands shake like this( busi- ness of thembllng hand on Ceci's parD. l had job in livery stable and l earned S25 a month when they took me mp for not going to school My sister died and left some debts. and the grave was to pay for, and my mother had an operation for appen- dicitis and they cut a hole in her side. so long Cbusiness of measuring off eight inches by CeciD and I just had to go to work and earn money for my mother"
 At this point Cecil is so overcome that he breaks down and sheds real tears, and the listeners begin to reach for their handkerchifs and think, What a noble. nule boy is Cecil"
 Late returns from Cochise county are Co the effect that Cecirs mother works at good wages in the C. & A. hospital at Douglas, that a brother is employed in livery stable, and that there is really no reason for nobls little Cecil staying away from school to win pay envelope. It is huteh that Cecil has a deep-seated dislike for 'rithmetic ritin' and readin which is Che true cause fir his sending re- grets when the school bell rings Any how Cecil has made a big hit with the officers at Tucson and they say he is Che most clever juvenile at handling sob stuff that has ever canped in the county jail.
 Deputy sherln Allie Howe arrived from Tombstone yesterday afternoon and will take the lad back to Tomb | stone today

PUNGENT PUNCH AND ICE WATER TO MARK
 BIG EAGLES' BALL
Stroke of Mid-N'ght Will Usher in Ice Water and Prohibition; Annual Ball Wll Be Unique Al. fair; Preparations Underway

One of the most novel dances in tho
 history of the district will be thai given by the Bisbee lodge of Eagles on the night of December s1. New
 Years Eve. It will occur in the Low ell hall and the unique feature will be the lightning change of liquid re- treatments when the clock strikes twelve, which hour will usher into effect the new prohibition law and will make the state dry.
 O. s. French is chairman of the re. treatment committee and until 12 o'clock on the night of the dance he will have on tap punch which he can. didly admits will not be made entire ly of the beverage made famous by William u. Bryan. This will be served to any guests without money and without price. and without any limitation on the amount one may drink
 But exactly on the stroke of twelve all that is left of this delicious con coction will be poured sadly out of the window and in its stead will be placed ice cold water and ice cold lemonade By some it is believed that the ball will break up when this metamorphosis takes place, but others say nothing can break up an Eagles ball, as everybody always has such a good time.
 William Bucket is chairman of the arrangements committee and F. c. Henderson of the finance committee, and with Mir French they are working on other novel plans to make the dance unique and enjoyable.
 At the meeting of the Eagles Mon day night nominations were made for the various offices in the lodge The election will occur at the next meet ing. December z, and the new officers will take their places on the first oi the new year A smoker will be giv- sn at the next meeting in connection with the election. The lodge was nev- pr in more prosperous condition .han at present and it is hoped 10 make next year even more successful .han this one

MAY SEND TROOPS TO
ARKANSAS NINE RIOTS

Washington, Nov. 3.-President
Wilson, Attorney General Gregory
and Secretary Garrison of the War
Department discussed at long con-
ference at the white house the ad-
visibility of sending federal troops
to the strike zones of Hartford Val
ley, Ark, to assist Frank A. YOU
mans, United States district judge,
in enforcing the orders of his court.
Bloodshed and rioting and an al
most uncomfortable situation were
pictured to officials here in dis
patches from the strike regions.
This is the first request OF the
kind that has come to the federal
from a court in many
years, but it is fully covered by
federal statutes giving the depart
n.ent of justice power to call on the
military branch of the government
for assistance in enforcing the laws
of the United States.
