WAR SUM MARY

Upper Alsace seem sto be the
center of most important fight
ing in the western arena of the
war, engagements of violent
nature are being fought in the
region OF Sennheim, which the
French call Cernay, lying about
eight miles northwest of Muel-
hausen.
The French forces have occu-
pied the heights around Sem
helm and in addition have driven
the Germans out of Steinbach,
a village farther to the north.
At other points along the front
extending to the North sea there
has been only intermittent can
nonading.
Both Russians and Germans ad-
NIT that no important change has
taken place Of late in the front

statement have captured maly
Austrian prisoners.
Russian troops have crossed the
Crown land of Bukowina and oc-
cupied the town Suozawa, within
short distance of the Austro-
RoumaniaI frontier.
A correspondent Of the Berlin
Tagblatt with the Austrian head
quarters explains the recent
change in the situation in Galicia
by the statement that the Rus
SLAMS have been heavily rein
forced from Kiev. Another Ger
man correspondent says the Rus
slams are bending every effort
to reach the fortress of Cracow,
but have met with repulses and
heavy losses, owing to the well
selected Austrian positions.
British warships have bonn
barded Dar-Es-Salaam capital of
German East Africa, where, it is
reported, much damage was in
flicted. All the German vessels

movement on the part of the
Musselmans, a committee from

that the French and Servian min

An attack on the city by the

BOTH WRONG.

Former Mayor y. VI Roberts Of
Terrc lIaute, en- route to the federal
prison at Lcayenworth, remarked to
friend at ST. Louis: THAT IS
what you get for being a politician -
He was going over the road with
fellow officials to disgrace and penal
serytude, because Of election frauds
Tough luck, old boy; hope you
don't stay there long" had been the
friends greeting mat occasioned
Roberts statement.
Both were wrong
Roberts was not on the way to pris-
on because he was a politician, hut
because he was "A crook-a crooked
politician There's a vast difference
between politician and a crooked
politician.
And the friend was mistaken, for
tough luck did not send Roberts TO
p".son. Justic" required a settlement
that was reason for the trip. The
friend regarded the matter. apparently
as case of IF YOU can't be good
be careful" and Roberts had an en-
tirely wrong conception OF politics.
