MARKED CHANGE NEAR
IN GERMAN WAR plan
With Forces That Have Beseged Antwerp free to move
Against the Enemy, it is Believed That Terrific AS
sault May be Expected Shortly.

Berlin, via The Hague and London,
Oct. 19.-All the signs indicate that q
change is impending in the protracted
struggle in northern France, where
for weeks the hostile armies have
faced each other in such strongly en-
trenched positions that neither has
been able to advance except at enor-
NOUS cost. The principal effect Of the
mutual fianking operations has been
to extend the battle lines without eth
er side finding a weak spot.
The German army which besteged
Antwerp is now free and the invading
forces have been strengthened other
wise for an assault against some point
in the extended battle front. Rigid
chosen for this offensive movement.
The bulletins given out by the German
headquarters throw no light on the
nature Of the stroke which unmistak-
ably is impending. America is per-
haps better informed concerning this
than is Germany. The latest bulletin
reports this stereotype: "The situa-
ton is good"
Full Pledged Fortresses.
Reports from the front state that
the entrenched positions in the CEN
ter have become full-fedged fortress
es. The infantry is lodged in such
elaborately protected shelter pits that
damage is done only when q heavy
shell strikes squarely. Shrapnel or
shell fragments do not penetrate.
The soldiers have introduced mat
tresses. tables and other comforts, into
these underground rooms In which
they live in comparative comfort ex-
cept when it is necessary to man the
trenches against infantry attacks.
Heavy artillery is planted in masses
near the line. These guns include the
twenty-five which were captured from
the fortresses at Givet, France.
Many False Alarms.
Demonstrations and false alarms
are frequent. The fall of Antwerp
caused a sudden outflare Of activity,

ing the French to believe that gen.
eral attack was impending and draw

TRAINS CHANGE TIME.
The Milwaukee and Rock Island
Both Make Slight Changes in
Their Schedules. Milwau-
kee Will Stop at Old
Peoples Home

The Rock Island passenger train
which has formerly departed from
this station at 1870 a. m. changed
time on Monday, June /, and will
leave in the future at HAS. This
is the only change in service noted,
of any of the trains.
A slight change has gone into eff
feet on the Milwaukee also. The af-
ternoon passenger now departs at
$3.50 instead of 1896.
Another feature which the Milwau-
kee has established for the convent
ence of all those who desire to visit
the old peoples home being erected
on the Aase Haugen farm about three
miles out from DEBORAH, is the stop
ring for passengers on the $40 and
$3.50 outgoing trains and the 8:15
and $500 incoming trains. 1t is an
accommodation much appreciated, and
will no doubt be taken advantage Of

CUTTING CORNERS.

The most inconsiderable man of
them all is the one who cuts the
corners of his neighbors' yards and
contributes that much to the ruina-
ton of their lawns.
There is no open corner lot in
this town that is not afflicted with
its corner-cutter. Only those es-
cape him who have erected high fen
ces and stone walls. Nothing else
seems to be sufficient to head him
off.
Every citizen should take pride
in the appearance of his city. He
should contribute something, not on
ly to his own property but should be
considerate of his neighbors. Cor
ner cutting is foolish and unneces-
sary offense against civic beauty. No
one gains anything by it. The am
cunt of time saved is so small that
it is not worth thinking about.
Then why mar the beauty of the
yard? Why arouse the temper of the
man within, who has been spending
his time and money to make his
property fair to look upon?
The next time you come to a cor
ner just remember that if you own
ed it you would be very much an
noyed and inceIsed at every person
who tracks across it. Keep to the
walk. Save the grass. Help protect
what we have and assist the man
who is willing to spend his time and
money in humoring it alon9
