cord the important fact that a union
has been effected by Belgian, British
and French troops across the line of

The location of troops of the three

future operations it is understood they
will act together.
The sighting of a German cavalry

the position of the Belgian army from

AT BISMARCK THIS FALL
Annual Meeting of State Educational
Association.

Teachers and educational authori-
ties all over North Dakota are look
ing forward to the annual meeting Of
the State Educational association
which will be held in Bismarck this
fall. The meeting at Grand Forks last
November vas the largest state gath
ering of teachers ever held in North
Dakota and the membership and in
terest in the work of this important
organization is constantly growing.
G. R. Travis Of the state normal
school at Mayville, who is the presi-
dent of the association, states that
already three noted lecturers, Dr..
Sparks of the State College of Penn
sylyania; Hon. Franklin Blair, state
superintendent of public instruction
in Illinois, and DR.. Gunnison Of Can
ton, have signed contracts as lectur-
ers for the Bismarck meeting. Each
is scheduled for three lectures. Five
of these are to be delivered before
sections, while the other four will be
before the general association. Plans
for the fall meeting are rapidly being
completed.

News Of the Week From Many
Sections Of the State.
AID TO POULTRY RAISING
Fargo Farm College Men Prove That
Tuberculosis Can Be Found
and Treated.

Announcement has been made Of the
results Of experiments in aviary tuber-
culosis made by l.. Van Es and A. f.
Schalk, professors at the North Da-
kota Agricultural college at Fargo.
The experiments prove that tubercu-
losis can be discovered among poultry
by a new method Of testing evolved in
marks a distinct advance in poultry
raising, for it will now be practicable
to discover tubercular hens and weed
them out before they have contain
mated other fowl in the flock.
AS early as 1868, when Villemin
made his experiments, it was sup
posed that there was such a thing as
tuberculosis in fowls and that the dis
ease lowered their efficiency and in
many cases caused death. Not until
the discovery of the professors at the
North Dakota Agricultural college,
however, has any practical method
been devised for coping with the dis
ease.
The disease is Common in South
Africa, where the Beers have no name
for it, although they know it as tuber-
culOsis where it affects hogs and cat
tie. In this country fowl tuberculosis
attracted but little attention until
Pernot described it as occurring in
GreSon in 1900. Almost Immediately
there came reports of it from Canada,
New York, Minnesota, Wisconsin and
many other states in the Union. In
North Dakota the disease has a fairly
wide distribution. Although compara-
lively few fowls die of the disease
their egg laying ability is materially
impaired.
The results obtained by Doctors
Van Els and Schalk in their expert
ments are due in part to the method
of procedure used. They experiment.
ed almost exclusively with the intra-
cutaneous method Of tuberculin appli-
cation introduced by Moussu and Man
toux in 1908 as a practical test for
mammals. AS places of injection the
comb and one of the wattles were
chosen. A small needle was used.
The reactions for tuberculosis consist
of small swellings of the part in
jected.

ATTITUDE OF ITALY

Seven Nations Are Engaged in
Life and Death Struggle,
DEVELOPMENTS IN EUROPE

Diplomatic relations between France
and Austria have been broken and
the ambassadors have left the CAPT.

statement says the initiative was
taken by France because Austrian
troops We're aiding the Germans.
The French are advancing in AL
SAGE, but against what opposition is
not known.
The Germans occupy the city OF
Liege, while the Belgian troops hold
the forts. The Belgian official view is
that the situation is quite satisfactory
The Austrians before Servia still
are bombarding Belgrade, while part
of the Servian army is taking the of.

The North sea again is closed to

there are large British and German
fleets in that water.

OPERATIONS SO FAR
ARE INSIGNIFICANT

London, Aug. 11.-No great battle
has been fought on land or sea in
the war Of seven nations, unless the
German assaults upon the fortresses
at l.iege eventually assume the pro-
portions of a battle in history. Both
combatants claim victory there, with
the Belgians still holding the forts
and the Germans occupying the city.
The situation is unique. There is
no confirmation of the Daily Mails
report that the French have engaged
the Germans and cut off their retreat,
intiicting a loss of 5000 men. The
Belgians assert that they have taken
5000 prisoners on Belgian soil, but
military men regard all the estimates
of the b~elligerents as great exaggera-
tons.
Apart from Liege the fighting of the
first week, when resolved to the prop
er perspective eventually, doubtless
will be considered insignificant.

FRANCE DECLARES
WAR ON AUSTRIA

Paris, Aug. II, (via London).-It
was announced officially that France
has broken Off diplomatic relations
with Austria-Hungary. The French
Austrian capital and the Austro-Hun-
garian ambassador at Paris has ask
ed for his passports.
In announcing the breaking off Of
relations with Austria the French
foreign office made the following
statements:
Contrary to assurances given byAus-
tria to the French minister of foreign
affairs that nc Austrian troops were
taking part in the Franco-German war
che French government has ascertain
ed beyond any possible doubt that
certain Austrian troops are at pres
ent in Germany, outside the Austrian
frontier.
These troop, which have set free
certain German troops destined to
oe employed in fighting France ought
indubitably de facto and de iure to be
considered as acting against France.
In these circumstances the French am
D%assador vas ordered to leave Vienna.
The Austrian ambassador at Paris,
on being informed Of Frances de-
cision, asked for his passports"
Count Szecsen Won Temerin, the
Austrian ambassador, left Paris.

BRITISH CRUISER
AMPHI0N IS SUNK

London, Aug. S.-Part of the Brit
ish and German fleets have been in
action.
The Germans fought a running
fight, according to the admiralty,
which advises that "all Of the news
may not be favorable"
The only real disaster admitted,
however, is the loss of the cruiser
Amphion with 100 men. It is consid-
cred certain, however, that a number
of British destroyers have been at
least crippled.
The German warships were driven
back on their base Off the German
coast and the admiralty claims that
British shipping has a clear pas
sage through the channel, While the
fishing feet need no longer remain
in the North sea ports.

reports that all the forts are intact.

Wife Of The President Expires
in the White House.
BRIGHTS DISEASE The CAUSE
End Comes Rather Unexpectedly After
an Illness Extending Over Sew
era! Months.

Washington, Aug. Mrs. Wood
row Wilson, wife of the president of
the United States, died at the White
House. Death came after a brave
struggle of months against Brights
disease, with complications.
The president was completely I'M
nerved by the shock and his grief
was heartrending. He bore up we'll
under the strain, however, and de-
voted himself to his daughters.
The end came while Mrs. Wilson
vas unconscious.
kneeling at the bedside at the end
was the president and his three
daughters. DR.. Cary 7. Grayson, U.
S. N, and a nurse also were in the
room, and just outside a door we're
Secretary McAdoo and Francis B.
Sayre, MI. Wilson's sons-iHlaw, and
Joseph Tumulty, his secretary.
Both houses of congress adjourned
when Mrs. Wilson's death was an
nounced and for a brief time the
wheels of the government practically
stopped out of sympathy for the presi-
dent.
Mrs. Wilson vas fifty years of age
and when she came to the White
House was in robust health.
President Bears Shock Well.
The beginning Of the end came
when Dr.. E. P. Davis Of Philadelphia,
who had been called in for consulta-
ton, realized that the time for hope
had passed. He took the president
into the red of the White House
and there in a broken voice told him
the truth. Mr.. Wilson's face blanched.
but he bore the shock we'll. He was
of hours.
Mr. Wilson then told his daughters,
Mrs. w. G. McAdoo, Mrs. Sayre and
Miss Margaret Wilson. of their moth
er's condition. Until then they had
thought there was a chance for her
recovery.
From that time on the president
and his daughters remained at Mrs.
Wilson's beside constantly. The
president held his wife's hand and
the three daughters were grouped
nearby. Until she became uncon-
scious Mrs. Wilson nodded to n or
the other frequently and smiled cheer
fully.
During the day she spoke to DR..
Grayson about the president, of
whose health she thought more than
she did Of her own.
Promise me-" she whispered faint
". that if | god, you will take care of
my husband"
