1t did not take long for Ralph to =
understand that the misery Gal
braith, as he learned his name to be,
was a miser for whom his niece
shaved. He had some business in the 1,
city in the scrap-iron line. L
Within two days Ralph was able to Z,
sit up. Then the girl, Ottila, in some
way got pair of crutches, and in

to a bench outside the house and
hobble around. ....- Z
He had unpacked his belongings
from the suitcase. Recalling the :
conversation he had overheard he did
up the dress suit that had done vast :,
service in his society reportorial ex-

of it. The sale brought pitiful sum,
but it quieted old Galbraith for a day

piece that did not CO. She seemed,
embarrassed as these negotiations
showed the niggardly persistency of
her uncle and placed her in a false
position with the guest whose respect
she cherished.
Ralph was panied to note the sharp,
corners she had to cut in order to,
provide the meals from the narrow
amount her uncle allowed her. It
could not be otherwise that day by
day the sterling qualities of his de-
voted nurse wooed his mind from all
thoughts save interest, and then deep
gratitude and finally love.
After the sale of the watch he OBJ,

POLES OF 3 NATIONS
FIGHT ONE ANOTHER
Germany, Austria and Russia
Each Has Promised Them
Independence.

ST. PETERSBURG. Sept las the war
develops along the frontiers of Germany,
Austria and Russia the more tragic be-
comes the position Of the Poles. In the
hghting lines of the three armies they
are forced to commit fratricide.
All three Powers have promised the
Poles the restora ton of their rights. and
even Independence. Especially has this
been the case in Austria. where the GOV
eminent encouraged its Polish subjects
to stand by the dual monarchy because
they have enjoyed parliamentary au-
tonomy in Galicia for the last forty years
and have been allowed to use their own
language and customs
The Poles there consequently responded
readily to the appeal Of the Austrian
Government, Two purely Polish regi-
ments were formed, wearing the old
Polish uniforms and carrying the ban
nors OF old Poland. Under the com
mand OF their own officers these regiments
easily penetrated into the provinces OF
Kielce. Sandomir and Lublin. In Polish
Russia. with the forward movement OF
the Russian troops these provinces are
suffering tremendously.

DILEMMA FOR KAISER.
Special cas,e Despatch 10 rnr srs.


PARIs, Sept. An army Captain
whose name is withheld said to the cor
respondent OF THE Sun tonight:
THE Germans are beginning TO per-
ccve that the march on Paris is not all.
They are beginning to feel uneasy about
the Russian march on Berlin. The re-
ported withdrawal of troops from Bel
g.um to the eastward is another proof
~ tho failure Of the famous plan of the
PrusS!an General STAN to turn against
Russia only after conquering France.
Now that the French army has inflicted
heavy defeats and losses on the Germans.
II the right wing OF the enemy gains
ground the imperial troops will he at a
disadvantage everywhere else.
I'm Lorraine, too, our superiority is
very marked Thus the German army Is
daily weakened while ours IS growing
stronger.
Moreover 1t is evident that the Prus-
slams will arrive too late to Withstand
cilicdciously the Russian invasion which
already extends over an entire province
Thus. II the enemy gains an advantage
on this side il can only be momentary.
AS already the Kaiser's army gives the
impression Of being undecided between the
iro Of our rs artillery and the military
ride OF the Cossacks"

much advantage. regiment Of Ger
man infantry is reported to have been
almost completely destroyed at Inchy-
en- Artois. In the Department OF Pas de
Calais.
II is stated that "a great mass of
German troops has been surrounded
since August 2S IN the great forest
which is being fiercely bombarded on
all sides. Tales Of great slaughter are
coming In which seem to show that
after two days the situation was fairly
even and IT was give and take. The
allies forced the enemy to retire. leav-
ing heaps Of dead and wounded. Forty
Red Cross automobiles left Lille for
the forest To bring in the wounded.
Up to the present the news has on
the whole been reassuring. Our retire
ment has been in accordance with a
carefully formulated plan and nothing
is going wrong. The Germans are still
bringing up huge masses to MI up the
tremendous gaps which have been
mown In their advance line. They are
lighting like demons to reach Paris. but
hour by hour and day by day we are
holding them, and II the movement Of
our left has more the shape of n hook
than Of line we need not worry.

1t is stated that already there are s.
900, 900 men engaged. Every branch OF
the service is represented and the tide
Of battle Gibbs and flows like that OF
the seas"
A decisive result has not been reached
the statement says. although the night
ing has now been in progress for SIX
days. II is said, however, that as a
result of the concentration OF forces
between Lublin. capital Of the district
Of Lublin, Russian Poland, and Cradles
2ow, Russian Poland distance OF sixty
miles, the fighting there has become
almost hand To hand and a decisive
result so far as that section OF the
battle-ground is concerned cannot be
very much longer delayed.
The Russian invasion Of Austrian
territory, the War ONCE says, has been
more than offset by the successes that
have accrued TO the Austrian arms in
Russian Poland
Denial is made that the Austrian
forces have met with enormous losses.
1t is admitted that casualties are heavy,
but It is also said that they are far
from being excessive when the condi-
lions are considered.
