WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, April Especial The
British prime minister has again EN-
phasized the need of vast supplies of
war munitions, in consonance with
the previously expressed intention of
the allies to eXpend ammunition
without stint when the time comes
for their forward movement against
the whole German line in France and
Belgium.
Mr.. Asquith, in a speech at New
castle, appealed to the workers of the
armament factories ito rival the
patriotism of their fellows who had
gone to the front" by regular attend
ance at work and by using their ut
most ~endeavors to increase the pro
duction of supplies.
That the prime minister believes
much depends on this was indicated
10y his declaration that "once pro-
ductive factories are organized and
modified all will be we'll"
Since the brief review issued a few
days ago by the Russian war office of
the operations in the Carpathians, in
which it was stated that the Rus
SLAMS held the principal chain of
mountains for an extent of about
seventy-fve miles and were strength
ening their positions, a preliminary
measure to further attempts to win
the passes leading into Hungary. lit
tie news has come through respect
ing the operations in that territory
Indeed, German news correspondents
who are with the Teutonic allies as
sert that the Russian offensive in that
region has come to an end.
Vienna also declares that there has
been no charge during recent days in
the general situation in the Carpa-
thians.
In the west French troops are bat
tering at several points against their
German adyersaries, and the French
war office reports that fifty incen-
diary shells have been dropped by the
Germans on Rheims. a city that has
.%withstood bombardments from the
beginning of the war.
Two French aerial s%quadrons have
attacked points along the Rhine,
have bombarded several stations and
have set fire to great forage stores at
Mannheim, the buildings and con
tents being destroyed, according to a
dispatch from Zurich.
Information comes from Austria
by way of Rome that Austria-Hun-
gary is concentrating troops on the
Italian frontier in view of a possible
invasion by Italian forces. But no
definite statement has yet been made
regarding any change in the policy OF
armed neutrality" which Italy is
maintaining.

MILLION DOLLARS
State Treasury at Pierre Has n Bunch

Pierre, April 22.-Over a million
dollars for April / is the showing of
the state treasury for the close of
business at that date, the total cash
on hand in all funds being $1.072.-

ted to the schools of the state in
June, and will grow materially be-
fore that date. The state is carrying
about $4,000 i'm what is known as

Is collections from counties for mon

eral fund, but failed. and ii will be

another two years.

ABANDONED DOG
Canine Spends Night on Spot Where
Indian Couple Boarded Train.

Peever. April 22.-The extreme
loyalty of a ~despised Indian cur dog
was demonstrated most forcibly here
Saturday and Sunday to all who
CHANGED TO stop at the depot for any
length of time. An aged Indian eou-
pie came to Peever Saturday after
noon and took an afternoon train for
the east. Shortly afterwards a Il
dog belonging TO the couple was seen
scenting around the depot, running
hither and thither to pick up the lost
trail Of its master. which seemed to
be very fresh at a certain point on the
platform, but which seemed to have
disappeared from there-the point
where the couple had boarded the
train.
Boys drove the little animal away
from the depot time after time, but
he would always return TO the same
spot, sniff around the platform, and
then stop and whine, as if calling TO
his master to know why he was de-
serted.
Sunday evening the little animal
was seen lying on the spot where the
trail ended, his muzzle on the plat
form between its paws. and its little
sides painting from the constant run

Sioux Falls Argus-Leader: Many
of the citizens are visiting lakes and
streams in this vicinity catching
perch and other fish. The attention
of these ''sooners" is called to the
law which prohibits the catching of
perch in any manner until after the
first of May, and the closed season on
black bass is not over until Decora-
ton day. The latter date is a change
which was made at the last session of
the legislature. There is plenty of
good fishing in this vicinity if the
fish such as perch. pike, bass. etc,
are given the protection which the
law requires, but if indiscriminate
fishing is carried on the fish will not
only be depleted, but some of the
over anxious Isaac Waltons will find
themselves in a Justices court. The
members of the Minnehota County
Game and Fish Protective associa-
ton wish a ote of warning sounded
and if ii is not needed arrests will
follow.
Aberdeen dispatch: Developments
of a most serious nature will follow
Tuesdays election here. which re-
suited in a tie vote on the license
question. each side of the question re-
ceiving 1885 votes, as recorded by
the judges, out of a total of 2,74S
ballots cast. Judges in the third and
fourth wards are being charged with
gross carelessness, which may be
shown to be criminal in its extent.
Under the laws of the state, passed
by the legislature in 1918, qualified
electors who will be away from their
home precincts on election day have
the right to cast their votes before
the city auditor three days prior to
election, sealing these ballots, to-
gether with identification slips and
affdavits, in an official envelope and
mailing them to the judge of the
precinct under registered and special
delivery stamps. In at least three
wards of the city, the judges failed
to stamp these ballots when taken
from the envelopes and when the
count was made these unstamped bal
lots were thrown out.

Bison. April 22.-It is estimated

attle. has been shipped into this sec
ton of South Dakota within the past
month. While cattle prices are hlgh,

legislature of 1901 voted the chair
to the retiring governor and it was

with the statement that the legisla-
ture had no right to give away state
property. 1t was then by resolution
voted to the historical department,
but that action was later rescinded
and expunged, and the chair has been
knocked about in various store rooms
about the capitol until the present
time, when ii has been landed in the
rooms of the historical department.

Made Point for Defense.

OF Sir Thomas Egerton, who was
gifted with quick perception, this story
is told: "a poor woman had been in
trusted with the care or a large sum
of money by three farmers, who told
her to keep it safely until they ap-
peared together to claim it. Shortly
afterward one of them went to her
and, representing that he came at the
direction of the other two, he received
the money and forthwith disappeared.
The other two brought action to re-
cover the whole deposit. Egerton hap
pened to be in court during the trial.
In which an intimate friend defended
the woman. Seeing that the case was
going against his friend, Egerton vol
unteered to speak as amicus curiae.
Permission was granted Emphasiz-

QUEER USE OF GRAM0PHONE
That instrument Is Not Designed
Merely for Amusement Has
Been Proved.

The gramophone Is sometimes put
to strange uses. The leader of an AT.
rican hunting expedition, who set out
on motor trip from the Cape to Cairo.
recently used It as decoy for tigers
and hippopotami. In tiger hunting 1t
Is usual to tether a lamb to a tree;
its bleatings attract the tiger within
reach Of the hunters. Before leav-
ing England, the explorer had some
records made by bleating lambs, and,
says a writer in Answers, he tried
them on the unsuspecting tigers of the,
African Jungle with considerable suc.'
cess.
The record makers gained one OF
their greatest triumphs when they sue
ceeded In eating good nigh. as..alel
and blackbird records. The chief diff
ficulty was the objection that the
birds had to the sounds Of the re-
cording machine. The clever men got
round that by setting up a dummy
recording machine, in the horn of
which they put some Of the birds ia.
vorite food
When bird entered the horn to
get the food the clockwork was set
in motion. The little creatures soon
grew accustomed to the sound, and
SO, after much tedious and discour-
aging labor, successful records were
made. These records are selling in
thousands all over the world.
The gramophone is also of service
in more serious and more scientific
undertakings. Records of all dialects
and languages spoken in Great Britain
have been made and preserved in the
British museum for the benefit of |
posterity. The people of the thir-
tieth century villa know by the help
Of these records just how Manx and
Gaelic sounded, and how the cockney
