Russians Are Forced to EvaCu- ate Grodeck and Are Said to Have Crossed the Riven Ia new; Strong Lines.
BRITISH AND FRENCH
 SUCCEED IN THE WEST
Germany RageS Over Alleged Fact That U-29 Was Destroy ed By a British Tank Steam CT; Negotiations Wait.

LONDON. June l9.-The strongly fortified Galician town of Grodek, where it was predicted the Russians would make a stubborn stand has fallen before the Ausuian-Germana as- sault. according to tonight's Austrian official statement The river Tanew. believed 10 be another strong barrier has been crossed; Kamorno, only a few miles south Of Grodek. has been taken and the Austro-German forces are less than a days march from Lem berg, the capital of Galicia.
 Earlier in the day the resume of the Galician situation, from Petrograd. said the then existing disposition of the Russian forces in the vicinity Of Lemberg meant a crisis and that the holding or losing of the lines should determine the fate of the Galician cap ital capital The French are keeping up an offensive on the Arrss section and the British have again taken some German positions around Hooge. gain ing a considerable stretch of trenches which, according 10 latest adyices, they are holding. The Germans make no mention of this gain
 Viennas claim to. success around Lemberg was forecasted in the Ger man official from Berlin. which pre- ceded that of Vienna The Berlin statement asserted the Grodek posi- tions were being attacked and the Russians to the north were retreating as far as the Tanew line. The Aus trians subsequently recorded the fall of Grodek, and claimed the south bank of the Tanew was cleared of the Russians
 The British Admiralty announced officially the German submarine u-29, which was sunk in the latter part of March, fell a victim 10 a British war ship the name of which was not dis closed. Presumably the reason for this tardy announcement became ap- parent only when a flood of Berlin editorials, in which it was stated the U-29 was sunk by a merchant ship, reached London. This is being ac- cepted in Germany as a fact and it k argued, editorially, that Germany could not relax one whit her warfare against merchantmen which might ram and destroy submarines seeking to search them before firing a torpedo.

ROAD BOOSTERS MEETING HERE
 TOMORROW
BiSbee Will Hold Convention of the CoChiSe County Road Bond Issue Association; Many De- legateS Expected.

Delegations from at least two pre- cincts not heretofore represented at the meetings of the County Bond Issue association will be in Bisbee tomor- row. These precincts are Paradise and Apache That both of them will send delegations here is the advice brought back by County Engineer Ryan after a trip into the far east" of the country. lt hasn't been expected that Paradise would be represented owing to its isolation from the rest of the county and its interests were expected to have been looked after bg the Douglas delegates in which district Paradise was included. But in a matter so important as roads the people of the Chiracahua Mountain town feel they should be personally hear from and will be on hand to look after their own interests.
 A larger gathering than either of those held in Tombstone is expected here tomorrow. Douglas has held an enthusiastic meeting and will be re- ! of road boosters in addition to it's members of the committees. At least three have stated their Intention to be here from Willcox. with II. A. Morgan heading their delegation Tombstone, Benson. St. David and the southerly end of the San Pedro valley will be here in numbers. McNeal has been heard from and if there are any absentees these will be from remote northerly precincts.
 McNears wishes in the way of roads were yesterday conveyed tc | Secretary Joe Gray of the Bond As sociation when the map of the dis trict was returned to him. The val leyites are asking for 73 miles of road but not all of these are trunk roads In addition to the Central Higway they ask for a road up the line of the | Courtland railway and a loop around the Swishelm mountains. The easter | ly side of this loop runs through can yons and up to the Whitehead ranef where it connects with the westerly side of the loop. The demands o that district are considerably more than those of the Bisbee district ana its mountain and canyon road woulC be a costly one to build.
 Thus far the districts that have been heard from on road systems ar' Bisbee. Double Adobe, Palominas McNeal. Pearce and San simon whicl

GERMANY RACES OVER
 FATE OF SUBMARINE

BERLIN, June 19.-A statement, given out by the German Admiralty to the effect that the German submar- inc U-29, had been rammed and sunk by a British tank steamer after the vessel had been ordered to stop. Is expected to have an important bear ing on the German American negotia- tions German naval officers and the public at large, ask how it is possible for the German submarines to treat merchantmen in the way requested by the United States, or to take steps according to the nationality of the ships displaying neutral flags as long as British captains adhere to the rules laid down by the Admiralty
 The announcement, published by the German admiralty regarding the fate of the U-29, which was made in the most positive form, as if the German Admiralty had conclusive evidence upon which to base the statement, will in the opinion of well informed persons here make a deeper impress ion on the public mind than would almost any other possible event.
 Captain Weddigen, commander of the submarine. was a popular hero in Germany, ranking in popular esteem with the army leader Field Marshal von Hindenberg. The loss of the Ger man undersea boat win stiffen the na. ton in the belief that it is impossible to introduce any changes in submar inc methods SO long as Great Britain will not withdraw its instructions re- garding neutral flags and attacks up on submarines.

EDWARDS BILL IS HOUSES WORK
 IF THE DAY
Lower House Works on Edwards Bill, But Dces Not Dispose of Measure; Oscar Doyle Taken to the Hospital.

PHOENIX, June 19-The House spent the entire day considering vari- ous sections of the Edwards prohibi- tion measure exempting certain im- portations from prosecution but had the bill only half finished when the committee of the whole meeting aG- journey and in regular session the house read, finally for the second time and ordered enrolled, Proctor s bill appropriating S4O0OO for the Nav aio and Apache counties flood suffer CTS and the Bowers bill providing for an additional superior court in Mari copa county.
 It was apparent that the house members who are opposed to the en. actment of any legislation relating to the sales of liquor are anxious to see Edwards bill pass and sent to the senate and the bill which passed the senate killed by the house, on the theory that the senate would kill the Edwards bil and no legislation will be the result
 Representative Doyle was today stricken with an attack of gall stones and taken to the hospital. Unless he is improved tomorrow an operation will be performed

The fifteen million dollar super dreadnaught Arizona is a sister ship to the Pennsylvania. recently launch ed at Newport News, and in size and armament one of the largest and most powerful craft ever built for any navy.
 Ships of the line. like the Arizona, are built to give and receive punish ment in sea battles. Their mission has little in common with that of the bat tie cruisers which have been the laTg- est ships to engage each other during the European war. Speed is saCriic- ed in the construction of the battle ships to weight Of armour and against such a ship as the Arizona with her broadside fire from twelve 14-lnch guns and protection of more than a foot of toughest steel that can be made around the vessels vital parts lyike a wall, battle cruiser would be help less and most depend on her speed and seek safety in flight There are few ships in any navy fiji to cope with the Arizona. ship to ship.
 The range of the Arizona's gun is from 12 10 13 miles as they will be set in her turrets, or as far as her gun pointers and observers can see in brightest weather As in previous ships carrying the 15inch guns. the Arizona's main battery will have a maximum elevation of nearly twenty degrees II would be possible. it is said, to almost double that elevation and add miles 10 the range of the guns; but already they can shoot and hit farther fits probable they would ever be called upon to do.
 The Arizona will carry the three

The big guns can be fired oyer either broadside and around the entire circle with the exception of an are of less than thirty degrees direct ly forward for the after turrets and di- rectly astern for the forward turrets. Four of the secondary battery guns, two on each side. are so placed that they can fire three degrees across the ships bows, taking the place of bow chasers of the old wooden ship days.
 Compared to the Arizona the old hattleships of the Oregon class are al- most like toys The new ship could engage a fleet of three of them at the same time, turning upon each as many guns as it could bring 10 bear and her guns would be bigger and of longer range In addition she could steam away from them or overtake them at pleasure. developing 21 knots against their 16 or IT, The remarkable thing about the great increase in size and gun power however is that each of the smaller ships would need as many or more men than the Arizona which will carry a compliment of 9l5 in her crew

Oriqin of Billiards,

The game of billiards is. said to
have been brought from the cast by
the returning crusaders. it was first
played on the ground, with round
stones to take the place Of ivory
balls, and during its vogue was con,
sidcrcd one Of the best Of outdoor
sports.
1t was not until 1871 that ar
artist by the name Of De Vignc in
the court of Charles IN. designed
the first billiard table and made q
code Of rules for the game. The
stones were soon replaced by two
balls. There were used also an ivory
post, an upright cone called king
and two sticks called masts. The
last, which were the origin Of tho
modern cue, were made Of heavy
wood and tipped with ivory.

CHATTER or WOMEN.
its Value In Teaching Children the
Use Of Language.

Soo W s.e'SooSos
In tho Woman's Home Compan-
ion Ida NJ. Tarbcll writes on "The
Talkative Woman" an& explains
why women chatter and What their
chatter is worth. One Of her prin-
cipal points is that women are natu-
rally talkative because they spend
SO much time with little children,
teaching the youngsters the Ian
guagc. This point Miss Tarbell cx-
plains as follows:
eff it were not for the chattcring
of women the child would never
learn to talk.
"There is no one, probably, that
will deny that the first words child
attempts to speak are mere imita-
tions of sounds that they mean
no more to him than sounds do to
a parrot. When he begins to initiate
there is always, or should be, wo-
man beside him, repeating, smiling,
encouraging him. The play goes
on, month in and month OFT. With
infinite patience she chattcrs to him
until consciousness is aroused. Then
rapidly his education goes on. Words
are attached to objects, facts about
objects are perceived; their form,
their color, their odor, their rcla-
tions to the little learner. The
words for all these perceptions are
slowly gathered in. Then The child
learns to compare, to distinguish
values, to remember not merely the
sounds he learns, but the meanings
Of those sounds. His mind is open
cd to the world, and through wo-
mans chattering!
"'Whcn he leaves her hands at
six or scvcn,' says NJ. de Gourmont,
'hc is q man-that is, he talks,
which is what makes man. The
great intellectual work of womcn,'
he goes on, lis teaching language.
The grammarians claim that they
do it, which is absurd. Children
know how to talk before they go to
school. They already use all the
forms of the verb, all the shades
of syntax easily and correctly. This
power of language the child gets
from the woman. Il is to her honor
that later he will use it as a poet,
novelist, philosopher or moralist,
or, to use Nietzschc's strong phrase,
as "crcator Of valucs."'
"Takc this view of it--and who
shall or can dispute its truth ?-and
how infinitely more valuable to the
world is the chatter of women than
all the books they ever wrote or
orations they ever delivered. 1t is
of that fundamental order Of things,
without which cultivation, even
civilization, could not go on"
