and Cold Weather.

Paris, Oct. 20.Although fighting in
the north continues at several diff
ferent points official reports reaching
military headquarters indicate that
the Germans are not in sufficient force
to penetrate the allied lines at the
extreme northwest, just north of the
Belgian border Little early change
Is looked for at this point.
Between Arras and the neighb0r.
hood of scissors the allies continue
to drive the Germans back and at
points have driven wedges into the
German line, which, it is reported
here, reaches to the main line of in
trenched positions maintained direct
" west of the main lines of German
communication.
It is believed here the Germans
will be compelled to evacuate ST.
Mihiel very shortly, inasmuch as the
French advance is proceeding steadily
near that point, the most advanced
of the German positions on the north.
The French armies operating from
Nancy and Toul continue their efforts
to penetrate the valley of the Moselle,
the objective presumably being Metz.
Operations are being hampered. by the
heavy rains and cold weather. Official
and unofficial reports from the north
agree that all of the roads have been
badly damaged by the transport of
heavy guns and supply trains and that
they are difficult of passage, while the
fields generally are veritable boys

JAP ANESE CRUISER
IS SUNK BY MINE
Three Hundred and FOTty-tiye
Of the Grew Lost.

Toxic, Oct. 20-The light Japanese
cruiser Takachiho has been sunk by
striking a German floating mine while
patrolling the coast off the harbor en-
trance of Kiaochou, the German con-
cession on the Shantung peninsula. !
Three hundred and forty-four of her
crew were lost with her. Only thir-
teen survivors were rescued by war
ships.
No details of the disaster, the first
of any real consequence to the Japa-
nese navy in the present war, have
been received.
The Takaehiho was one of the old
est of the Japanese cruisers. She was
built in 1885, was of 300 tons dis
placement, speed 1875 knots and was
armed with eight six-inch guns, two
six-pounders and fourteen machine
guns.
When she was remodeled in 1900
four torpedo tubes were inserted.

London Oct 20-In the easter
theater of the war the great battle Of
Poland appears to be progressing in
favor of the Russians, who say they
have checked decisively the German
forces in their attempt to cross the
Vistula river. The Russians in and
around Warsaw are being protecte 1

destruction of the only railroad from
Lowicz to Warsaw on which the Ger

guns.
Around Przemysl, in Galicia, the
Austrians assert they have killed AMI

have crossed the Carpathians, but Oh

There are some prohibition leaders
In minnesota who would rather see

prohibition. What their motives are
can only be guessed, but they are very
hostile to William E. Lee, while they

about Lee. The head and front of his

main was true and he did not object

the prohibition leaders, in attacking

county option means prohibition"

County option, or more properly.
county prohibition, has been applied
to 100 Virginia counties out, of 10
before the recent statewide vote upon
the prohibition question at a special
election. The weight of 100 dry coun-
ties decided the statewide vote. Pro

thing, it is asserted. happened in West
Virginia.
Then why, it is asked, should the
prohibition leaders object to county
option? The rank and file do not.
they know that county option in Min
nesota would INN et,iately dry up the
whole western half of the state. an
urea bigger than two or three eastern
states. Then why is it that prohibit
