Information as to the where.
abouts of a certain Young man
who formerly lived here, is being
eagerly sought by the parents of
IA young girl in town. This man
ruined the girl, aud then, when
tired of her, cast her off, and, it
is reported, married another. No
punishment is too severe for a
man who will do such dirty,
cowardly act, but the wonder of
it, is that the girls will so easily
overlook 1t when considering the
men IN the light of matrimonial
prospects. No matter how bad a
man is or how many girls he has
ruined, he can easily be received
into the best society in town,
while the girl is under a. cloud
for all time. A large part of
this trouble is due to the double
standard of morals. The young
men demand of girls that they
consider marrying, that they be
pure aud viftuous, while the glrl
demands nothing of the kind of
the man, taking it as a matter of
eonrse that he has sown a liberal
crop OF wild oats. A young man
would not knowingly marry a
gffl who smoked cigarettes, got
cursed or carried on IN a
unbecoming to a lady,
but the boys who do these things
have not the slightest trouble in
going with the best of the young
9 rls in town. The hardest part
Of the whole business is that the

The German communication says
further ground has been gained in

the claims of the French that half
of the Alsatian village south of the
territory lost to the Germans in the
Argonne has been regained and that
three new lines have been occupied
in Steinbach.
The Russian war office announces
that another defeat has been inflicted
upon the Austrians In Galicia. 1t is
asserted that fortified Austrian posi-
tions near Gorlice were destroyed
and that 1000 prisoners we're cap

however. that the victory was won
cnly after a hard battle and that
fighting still continues.
In Poland the German attack ap-

Exchequer to

ONE OF EARLY PROPERTIES At
CHERRY CREEK ENJOYS Pc
RIOD OF REVIVAL AND WILL

The old Exchequer mine at Cher
ry Greek, which threw its wealth SO
lavishly into the laps of the trail
blazers of the later seventies in that
old time silver producing camp, is
destined to witness a second period
in its developemnt. Regular ship
ments are being made by Shurtleff
and Mccoy and they contemplate
sending out at least one car a week
to the Salt Lake smelters.
The property that was one of the
bright particular stars in the early
days of Cherry Creek Is now shap-
ing itself to add to the worlds goods
of those who have attempted to
bring about its rejuvenation. Thirty
men are employed by the operators
from the Utah capital. and they fully
realize that no matter how valuable
"A piece of mining ground may be. its
real value cannot be known. until it
is developed and ores shipped to the
market.
The career of the Exchequer has
rot always been in path of roses.
1t suffered as a result of the serious
depression following the decline in
the price of silver, and since that
time there has been but little aggres-
sive exploitation work. The property
was controlled for many years by the
late John Wearne of Cherry Greek,
and later fell into the hands of
Angus B. Mcdonald of East Ely. who
disposed of the mine to Salt Lake
operators at the inception of the
boom In Ely eight years ago.

ITALIANS ATTACKING
ON TYROLEAN FRONT
Vienna Reports more Vigorous
Activity" by Foe.

Vienna. Oct 4.-The official state
ment tonight tells OF more vigorous
activity By the Italians on the Tyrolesn
front. II says
On the Tyrolean front the Italians
are developing more vigorous &C
tivity, which has led TO more intense
and longer fighting on the plsteaus
Of Vilgereuth and Lafraun. After a
severe artillery bomcardment ih the
Tonale district an enemy attack
against the Albiolo peak was san
guinarily repulsed.
On the plateau OF Vilgereuth our
position on the plain north OF Ma
rome Mountain since early TINS
morning was exposed 10 the ire OF
heavy and small guns. In the fore
noon weak detachments of enemy In
fantry, which had been held IN readi-
ness. made an unsuccessful attack.
In the evening the enemy renewed
his attack with strong forces. mostly
Alpinists, who closely approached our
obstacles and succeeded during the
night IN capturing one OF our Helu
vantage points. After obstinate fight
ing lasting until early morning our
troops again elected the enemy. Thus
all our positions remained in our
hands.
On the plateau OF Lafraun our gan
FIRE already has forced the advancing
infantry to retreat with great losses.
The advance Of weak force in the
district Of Burhenstein was easily re-
pulsed. On the remainder of the
front there is nothing of Importance
TO report.

that the plan was to keep the French
forces behind the last heights of the
Artois plateau, thus barring the route

The defence was organized accord

Within twenty minutes from the
time the order to advance had been

Bernstorff having been clothed with
full powers.
That Secretary Lansing now has un-
der consideration some important in
