it's boldness and grandeur as the vol
umes of water, like silver gushes, of
the Redwood River poured over 1t
and into the channel below. Back OF
the dam lay the lake, a great expanse
of water; blue unruffled and sombre
as the sky above it. 1t fell hundred
wards. narrowing into the channel OF
the river, and hid among the trees and
the hills. And then | thought as |
walked away that if nature did this
much for Redwood Falls it is not
surprising that her people should be
appreciative and add to the charm of
their bequest.
Finds Clague Likes Smith
Again returning to the active thor
oughfares of the little city | noticed
there was a general hustle and hustle
among the townspeople-they were
going home to their suppers-labor-
ers, clerks, students, business men
and professional men; among the lat
ter class it was my good fortune to
run across Senator Frank Clague, a
resident of that place, and one of the
best known lawmakers in the upper
house of the Minnesota Legislative
body. Mr.. Clague, although having
decided not to return to the senate
again this year, is nevertheless In
terested in who might succeed him.
Naturally our conversation led to
that subject and / was assured that
the present senator of the fourteenth
district strongly endorsed my fellow
townsman w. w. Smith, to succeed
him.

London, Oct. IA German torpedo

sunk by a mine, according to dis
patch from Amsterdam to the Reuters

This news reached Amsterdam in a
dispatch from the island of Schier

IN the North sea, belonging to Hol.

time of the disaster, II o'clock this
morning, the destroyer was to the

from the estuary Of the Ems.
Observers on the island heard a
sudden explosion and a huge mass OF
water arose from under the bows OF
the destroyer The boat keeled over
and disappeared under the waves with.
in three minutes.
The periscopes of two submarines
appeared on the surface. Their ma
tionality could not be ascertained but
they probably were German. A Ger.
man cruiser arrived from the Eme
estuary, the dispatch received in Am.
sterdam reports, in time to save the
crew OF the destroyer.

Berlin, Oct. T., (by wireless to Say

tations that a slight pause would be
made in the advance of the Germans
on Antwerp, it was reported today in
government quarters that two more
forts had fallen into German hands.
They were Fort Kessel and Fort Broc-
chen respectively east and north of

resist the destructive power of the
German siege guns.
The capitulation of Antwerp, accord
ing to German military authorities, can
be only a matter of a couple of days.
Press matter given out in Berlin off,
cial circles today includes the follow
ing:
"Big battles between German and
Russian armies in Poland may soon be
expected to take place.
Belgian officers some days ago sent
an unguided railway train to destroy
the transports of the big German siege
LhQKitzers,s The vigilance OF the Ger
Man Troops, however, frustrated the
plan. 3.
German newspapers speak of the
possibility Of Portugal declaring war
against Germany. The official report
of Prof. Otto Won Fake, director of the
Berlin museum of art, who made an
investigation of the situasion at LOU
vain, says that there were no losses in
important art monuments. All the pic

patch from The Hague, the cor
respondent of the Daily Ex-
press says that German news
papers reaching there indicate
that Count Zeppelin is now at
Wilhelmshaven on the North
sea- with his staff. Wilhelm
shaven is the point from which
the great air raid on the
British Isles is expected to
start.
One of the papers publishes
an interview with the count in
which he is quoted as saying
that he had not forgotten Eng
land, and would prove it very
soon.
1t is also reported, the cor
respondent of the Express con-
tinues that Count Zeppelin
was summoned recently by
Emperor William to Mainz.
His majesty said to the count
that he relied on him for
great work and offered to
make him commander in chief
of the German air feet. The
count smilingly refused, but
said he would accept the title
when he returned from Eng
and.
The Zeppelin STATS are work
ing day and night at Wilhelm
shaven and another station is
being established at Emden
for other types of airships.
