The high tide of battle on Belgian
fields has passed, according to infor-
nation to-day from French official
sources, and German might has failed
as yet to win the way to the English
channel To-day's statement from the
French war office announces that the
fighting from the French border to the
North Sea has become less violent, a
circumstance which previously mark
ed the passing of each of the success
sive battles.
Whether the present situation indi-
Gates merely a lull in the engagement
or the closing of one great act in the
war play is yet to be learned.
What the war is costing in human
life, as well as in men wounded or
held prisoners can only be surmised.
Occasionally, however bits of authen-
tic information are obtainable from
which may be gathered a vague idea
of what it all means. Premier AS
quith, for example, said to-day in the
House of Commons that the British
casualties up TO October 81 were ap-
provimately $1,000. Lord Witchener
stated recently that England had sent
100000 men to the front. In other
words one Englishman out of every
six engaged in the war. roughly speak

at whose home Otto Koehler, million
aire president of the San Antonio
Brewing Association, was shot and
killed last night, was to-day believed
to be in no danger from the wound
in her wrist, which she is said to
have inflicted after the death of
Koehler. She is said to have declared
that she shot Koehler to protect her
self and Emma Daschiel, another
trained nurse, who resided with her.
Mr.. Koehler had driven Miss Burge-
meister home in his buggy and was
admitted by Miss Daschiel. A few
moments later three shots were fired
and when the neighbors rushed in
they found Mr.. Koehler dead on the
floor of Miss Burgemeister's bedroom.
One bullet had broken his neck, an
other had penetrated the skull Just
below the left eye and a third had
entered the breast. Miss Burgemeis-

centration camps
Particular interest was attached to
to-day's French announcement for the
reason that the battle in Belgium was
considered by both sides as probably
marking a definite turn in the general
course of the war. Berlin was silent so
that German viewpoint of the latest
developments was not obtainable.
The French statement asserted that
several attempt of Germans to cross
the User canal around which has oc-
| Cured some of the most deadly strug-
giles OF the war were checked. These
attempted advances were made at tho
western outlet from DiXmude, which
the Germans wrested from the allies d
few days ago and the way along which
the Germans sought to push their
forces led straight to Dunkirll on the
channel Attacks around Ypres also
We're repulsed, the French announced.
Elsewhere on the main line of bat
tie gains by the allies are reported, in
| Guiding the capture of Il town north of

which corroborated earlier unofficial
advices from Paris that the battle of
the Aisne was being resumed with its
original intensity.
Fresh Efforts on Center
/ Military experts in France and Eng
/ land have been predicting that the
allies would make fresh efforts along
the center or on the eastern wing in an

was received dispatch from Vienna

sands to Knees in Sawdust;
They Come One by One

In what DR.. Slough described as
"the greatest night ever seen in Har-
risburg" more than 500 people-most
of them women church members-hit
the trail and knelt in the sawdust at
the tabernacle last night as a decla-
ration of repentance and a public con-
fession of Jesus Christ.
Only a few non-church members
were among the NUMBER, as the audi
ence was made up almost entirely of
about 900 members of the co-operat-
ing churches who marched to the
tabernacle in street parades. The gen
eral public occupied the few remain.
ing seats. Many hundreds were turned
away.
DR.. Slough was transformed from
the humorous sensationalist he has
been in the last ten days and became
the serious evangelist and Christian
gentleman who wins souls. His pun
gent preaching to picked crowd on
the subject of THE Lost Christ was
interspersed with death-bed stories,
accounts Of the result of sin and Illus
trations of forgiveness, told with a
pathos that reused his hearers to a
pitch of feeling never before witnessed

Sobs. Tears. Cries
HNsterical sobbing. cries of help and
tears from thousands of eyes told of
the emotions of sin-convicted hearts
in response to the masterful pleading
of the evangelist His working up IT,
climaNes, his intense sincerity and his
sense of power over the crowd are the
tools used by man who thoroughly
knows the business of evangelism and
salvation.
About two-thirds OF the trail htters
were women. Almost half of the total
were from the chorus, and practically
all of them We're adults. Aside from
the comparatively few cases of hys-
terics that created some commotion,
most OF the converts seemed well com
posed and determined in their action
of confession.
Call for Confession
DR.. StOughs call for confession came
gradually and was worked up to step
by step. As he drew near the con-
Clusion of his appealing sermon he
descended part way on the stairs at
the front of his platform and in seri-
GUS. careful words asked how many
