A Century Auo.

The trial of the. editors of the Ga
zette Universal, which took place in
Madrid 100 years ago., affords an illus
tration of the severity with which the
freedom of the press was restrained
in practically all of the continental
in those days. Ferdinand
VII, who but recently had been re-
stored to the Spanish throne as one.
of the consequences of the overthrow,
of Napoleon, had become involved in
serious controversies with the cortes.
the law-making body OF the land, be-
cause of the latter's- liberal views. A
revolution appeared to be imminent.
The Gazette Universal printed a state
ment to the effect that the officers of
one of the Spanish armies had de-
clared their determination to support
the constitution and the cortes. For
thus daring to take sides against the
throne the editors of the ~newspape
were condemned by order Of the king
to labor six years in the ga1leys, on
the coast of Africa.

HER ABSENT MINDED MAN

She paused a moment to imagine 1t

The New Fable of Everybody's Friend
and the Line-Bucker.

In a ~sequestered Dump lived two
Urchins, Edgar and Rufus, who went
to the Post with about IN equal Handi-
cap. Q
They got away together down the
broad Avenue of Hope which leads n
Lad over the hills and far away to the
United States Senate Chamber and
guides another u%nerringly to the Fed
eral Pen near L~eavenworth, Kansas.
When Edgar was a Tootsey he re-
ceived a frequent busting with Elk
IRENE Violet Talcum Powder and was
allowed to play with a faxen-haired
Doll named Celeste.
About the same time, Rufus began
10 take Cold Baths and was propped
up to look at Pictures of Napoleon and
John l.. Sullivan and Sitting Bull
At School each was a trifie Dumb.
If Edgar fell down on an Exam, his
Relatives would call a Mass Meeting
to express Regrets and hang Grape all
wei the Place.
If Rufus got palled up in his An
swers, his immediate Kin would pat
him on the Back and tell him he was
right and the Textbook was wrong.
Edgar would emerge from the
Feathers every morning to find his
Parents all lined up to wish him a new
set of Police Regulations.
They held up the Rigid Forefinger
and warned him that he was merely a
Grain of Dust and a Weakling and a
poor juvenile Mutt whose Mission in
Life was to Lie Down and Behave.
Rufus would be aroused each Sun
rise by a full Military Band of go
Pieces playing Hail to the Chief who
IN Triumph Advances"
Between the Buckwheats and the
Sorghum, the two Family Boosters
would slip him the pleasing Informal
ton that never since the Morning Stars
pulled their first harmonies had there
bounded into the Arena another such
Prodigy of Intellectual Brilliancy and
Physical vaior.
Consequently when Rufus hit the
Fresh Air, with the McGuffey under
the Arm, he wore his Chest about a
foot in front of him.
He acknowledged with a Slight Nod
the Salutation from some Member of
the Town Board.

PARIS, Oct. %. The allied
forces are rolling back the
German line. They have
pushed a wedge through the
invading forces thirteen miles
north Of Lille and for the first
time since the series Of battles
in the north commenced, they
have pushed their forces east
Of Lille. The advantage gain
ed is slight two miles but
it is declared at military head
quarters here it Is extremely
important. The allies are now
in q position to envelop the
German right flank and it is
confidently expected here that
they will be able to do 50
within the next week or ten

Officials at General Gal

lost the chief move in the
strategical maneuvering, by
their failure to maintain the
perpendicular line extending
from Lille to the coast near

They declare that the center

LONDON, Oct. 22.-If the Germans

raid was Intended to terrorIze London.
Then the German fleet was to 90 out

while an invading force was rushed

strong Russian force was sent north
west from Warsaw and apparently the
Germans had no knowledge Of their

field was reached, the Russians made a
determined stand and attacked the
enemy both from tho front and flank.
The Germans fought desperately, but
were trapped and lost an enormous
number Of their men In extricating
themselves from their untenable po-
sitions.
The fighting was Of the most des-
perate character. Village after village
was taken and retaken but eventually

Germans were driven back in disorder,
the Russians capturing large nun,ker
