Overpowering Fatigue and Privations Resulting from Five Days Unrelenting Struggle Brings About Temporary Lull
MILLION MEN
 WITHIN TOUCH
All Are Ready to Spring to Fatal Grip, But Are Now Snatching Little Rest Be- fore the Decisive Battle Begins
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH l

ON BATTLE FRONT, via Paris Sept. 19.-Overpowering fatigue and privatlOns resulting from five days un- relenting struggle brought about last night a temporary lull in the combat of the powerful armies face to face along the rivers Disc. Alsne and Woev- re. The roar of cannon, machine guns and rifles died down early in the even- ing and the presence of the two armies composed altogether of more than a million men within touch on an uneven line and ready to spring to a fatal grip, scarcely could be conceived. so tense was the stiffness. broken only by an occasional vagrant report.
 Soldiers of the allies and Germans alike are snatching a little rest, hud- dled up in strong entrenchments. In some places the trenches are half filled with water as the equinoctial storms continue.
 The French and British, like the Ger mans. have now entrenched and settled down for a stern fight which threatens 10 be even longer and more sanguin- ary than the battle of the Marne.
 
 by the allies, but very slowly and the developments of the past A hours are not important except that it is official ly confirmed that the Germans have received endorsements from Lorraine
 There were few isolated encounters today, but both sides appear to have abandoned the rash movements across the open which marked the early stag es of the war. Obviously the deadly machine guns taught a lesson. One of the incidents yesterday when the fight ing was awful in it's sacrifices was widely recounted today. A British in fantry regiment upon receiving order tO advance and to take the German po- sition knelt for a moment in prayer Then the men. knowing their charge to he terrible in cost, sprang to their feet and with bayonets, clambered out of the shelter of the trench. In short, in rapid rushes they advanced in wide open order. alternately lying down and then making another dash of fifteen yards.
 From the German position came the thick hail of the machine guns, but the attacking soldiers hurrahed and sang as they pressed forward. Many fell wi,h cries of determination on their lips Finally those who remained of the regiment reached and took the Ger man position after a desperate hand to-hand encounter. This was only one of many similar acts of courage and discipline on the part of the French, British and Germans alike at various points along the line.

The progressive party" said Captain Alexander, "has no quar- rel with the rank and file of the republican and democratic parties. We are only after the bosses"
 It was the aim of the party. he said, to introduce economy and intel ligence in the management of the affairs of the state. It was time that that was done. for the last year the expenses of government amounted to S1,SO0,000, while in the last year of territorial government, only three years ago. the expenses were only $S00,0 ,00O.
 Speaking of capital punishment Captain Alexander said that Governor Hunt had a right to his views, but he had no right to violate the laws to give them expression. Referring to the fact that the ticket had not been filled, Captain Alexander said that on the corporation commission ticket F. A.

Of Large Crew and Pas senger List Only Two Probably Rescued from Wreck of Steam Schooner Francis H. Leggett
SURVIVOR TELLS
 TERRIBLE TALE
Says Vessel Was Torn by Terrific Seas Until Sud- denly She Turned Turtle and Then Plunged from Sight
Associated Press Dispatch)

. ASTORIA, Sept. 19.-Be- tween seventy and eighty lives were lost and only two rescued when the steam schooner Francis H. Leg gett of San Francisco sank yesterday, sixty miles south of the Columbia river. The steamer Beaver arrived here with one survivor, who told a narrowing tale of how the vessel was torn by the ter rife seas until suddenly she turned turtle and plunged from sight.
 l The Leggett sank about 3:15 o'clock in the after noon, thirty miles north west by north of the Va quima light, off the Oregon coast.
 i Alexander Farrell of Sac ramento, the only passenger of the two rescued who reached port, related a story of brave deeds by the pas sengers and crew in the face of certain death. Farrell, who had recovered consid- erably tonight from exhaus- tion, said the Leggett car ried a full list of passengers, between forty and fifty, while the crew numbered about twenty-five.
 Captain Mason of the Beaver, who brought Far rell here, says the first he heard of the disaster was about 3:30 o'clock in the afternoon when the Japa- ,nese cruiser Idzlmo sent a wireless saying the Leg gett had sunk, but did not give the location. Mason tried for several hours to hail the cruiser to secure particulars, but the latter would not reply to the wire less calls. At midnight, however, the Beaver receiv- ed a wireless from the As sociated Oil steamer, Frank III. Buck, saying she was at the scene and had rescued one man.
 The Beaver hurried to the scene and searched the wreckage until 6 o'clock i'll the morning. While the Beaver was there tn e Bucks small boat picked

 democrats not earnestly in favor of

 that they be careful in pruning the
 bill as much as possible in view of
 the existing financial conditions. Other republican senators are com
 ing to reinforce Burton and Kenyon. Burton talked all night Friday, but remained at his post, and then was relieved by Kenyon at 10 o'clock this morning. During the night Burton took off his frock coat and substi- tuted an alpaca house jacket and bedroom slippers.

AN OYSTER STEW RECIPE
Expert Recommends This as an Un-
usually Appetlzing Way of SerV-
ing the BivaIVes.

Fannie Merritt Farmer, cookery edi-
tor of the Woman's Home Companion,
presents a number of Recipes for
October" In that publication. Among
them is her recipe for Boston oyster
stew, which follows:
Put one quart OF oysters In a col
ander and pour over three-fourths
cupful of cold water. Carefully pick
over oysters, remove tough muscles
from half of them, and slightly chop
remaining half with removed tough
muscles. Add chopped oysters to wa
ter drained through colander, heat to
the boiling point, and let simmer
three minutes. Strain through a
double thickness of cheesecloth, add
reserved solf part of oyster, and cook
until oysters are plump. Remove
oysters with a skinner and put in a
tureen with one-fourth cupful of but
ter. one-half tablespoonful of salt, and
one-eighth teaspoonful of pepper Add
oyster liquor, strained a second time,
and one quart Of scalded milk. AL
ways remember to scald milk in a
double boiler, which overcomes the
danger of scorching. Serve with oys-
ter crackers

More Uses for Salt.

A pinch of salt thrown on eggs will
make them beat lightly in about half
the time usually required. When
broiling steak over coal fire sprinkle
a little salt on the burning Goals and
the flame will not blaze up and scorch
the steak. If you are broiling meat
in a gas oven and 1t catches fire,
quickly turn the gas off and throw a
handful of salt on the blazing meat.
You do not need to use any water.
The salt will put out the fire and you
can then scrape off the salt from the
meat

HINTS FOR PRESERVE CLOSET
Picked Peaches Should by All Means
Be Among the Condiments Stored
Branded Cherries.

Picked peaches are a dinner con-
diment of unparalleled excellence.
Many people prefer picked fruit to
the sweeter jellies and preserves and
the good housekeeper always puts up
picked dainties as we'll as preserves,
jellies and jams for her well-stocked
winter fruit closet
Here is q tried and true recipe for
picked peaches: To seven pounds of
selected peaches allow half as many
pounds Of graduated sugar, one quart
OF vinegar, two ounces each Of stick
cinnamon and cloves. Dissolve the
sugar in the hot vinegar, add the
spices and boil for six minutes; add
the peaches and boil slowly until the
peaches have become soft enough to
be pierced easily by a fork. Turn
out the fruit and boil the strip down
to one-half Now put in the peaches
again and let the whole just come to
a boil. Pour into deep crock and
cover when cold.
A Virginian housekeeper recon-
mends this recipe for branded cher
ries: Cover large, oxheart cherries
which have been stoned with some
excellent brandy and let stand for AZ
hours Add to the mixture sugar in
proportion of pound for pound Do
not cook, but seal in glass jars and
set away in a cool, dry place. These
cherries are delicious for garnishing
whipped cream and frozen desserts.
They may also be served in home
mixed cocktails.
