PARIS. Dec. 10.
The French are continuing their ad-
vance in the region south of Ypres It is
officially announced In a statement issued
here this afternoon. The operations In
that district are over swsmpy ground,
which makes troop movements very diff
ncult. South OF La Bassee. the French
have advanced more than half a mile
and have also made progress at other
points, reaching the second line Of Ger
man defenses at Albert.
The repetition OF announcements as to
short gains made by French troops
shows that the Germans are making des-
perate resistance against the continued
extensive Of the Allies. It is said that
the nghting in Flanders and northern
France is the aercest that has taken
place during the campaign.
Moving northeast from Arras In force
the French and British troops today hold
ground representing the most important
gain they have made since Arras was 90
eupfed following the battle of the Aisne.
For the first time in two months posi-
tions cast Of Arras are in possession of
the Allies Fighting is repcNted in prog

an advance OF two and one-hah miles
for the Allied troops. Important advances |
also are reported from Armentieres.
British warships have bombarded Mid |
dlekerlse, on the North Sea, inficting Sc |
vere damage upon the German position |
there. A successful aerial reconnaissance |
has been made over ostend by the Allies |
areial scouts who report the arrival OF /
fresh German forces at that point. The |
Germans are working night and day to
strengthen their positions around Mid
dlekfrke and ostend TO stem the advance
of the Franco-Belgian forces, which
pushed to Lombeartsyde early this week.
The invaders have mounted some of their |
H-centimeter howitzers at Ostend.
Middlekerke lies four miles west OF
Ostend and two and half miles east of
Westende, which was bombarded several
days ago by English men-o'-war.
It Is reported from West Flanders that
the Germans have transported 10000 fresh
troops to Antwerp and have strengthened
their lines along the Belgian coast with
1000 reinforcements.
Roulers is again unofficially reported TO
have been occupied by the Allies, but this

SMALL NUMBER
REGISTERING

ONLY SIXTY PERSONS CALLED

But little interest seems apparent
among those qualified to register and
thus be able to participate In the pri-
mary election of June and some peo-
pie seem still to be under the i'm
preston that because they have voted
in previous primaries they are quail
fled to vote without being re-register-
ed.

sixty persons called at the office of
Supervisor of Registration McAllister
and registered, although there must
be large numbers in the city and

ance to register. All Of the voters Of

cept the books presented.
Supervisor McAllister has a full
force Of deputies at work in his office
and there is no delay in registering.
Furthermore the books are kept in
such condition that the officers can
tell at glance the number who have
registered, the number in each pre-
cinct and give all other information
desired, which is IN pleasing contrast
to the manner the books have been
kept until Supervisor McAllister took
charge Of them.

RAILROADS ARE

BUSINESS NOW
FERTILIZER HAS BEEN SHIPPED

AND LUMBER IS MOVING TO

Considerable more business is being
done by the railroads OF this section
now than at any time for several
months and indications point to q con-
tinuance Of It for an indefinite period.
While there has been q general re-
vfval In all freight business It is more
noticeable on the p. & A. division Of
the Louisville q Nashville. Large
quantities Of fertilizer have been
moved from Pensacola and other
points 70 this section and while this
has diminished to some extent. there
has bean big increase I'm the volume
Of lumber shipped to interior points.
This indicates better times In the lum-
ber and timber business for where
there IL q good demand from the In
terror markets the foreign demand
follows.
The buyers are now said to be
placing orders for early delivery, as
interior stocks are small and the hard
winter has held back the business for
several weeks over the usual period
for spring buying.
There f. also a good movement Of
lumber and timber to Pensacola for
export. and within q short time the
aew crop OF naval stores win begin to
move IN some volume.
