LONDON. Sept. 20.-The Russian
army menaced since the fall Of Wilma
by the German encircling movement
estimated variously atifrom 100000 to
100000 men. Conditions under which
the Russians are attempted to ex-
tricate themselves, furnish a striking
parallel to those which followed the
capture of Warsaw. They may pre-
cipitate one Of the greatest, IL not the
greatest, battle which has been
fought on the eastern frontier.
Although no official confirmation
has been received in London from
Petrograd Of the fall of Wilma, the
British press has accepted the Ger
man claim readily in view Of the
situation that has been developing.
Concern is expressed for the retiring
Russia nforces. So far as can be
judged, Field Marshal Won Hinden-
burg's troops have flung loop about
the Russians over a front OF some 200
miles. and are not only in their rear
but are menacing seriously ting single
railway line and the few available
wagon roads stretching to the south.
AS was the case at Warsaw the
number Of Russian prisoners left be-
hind with the evacuation OF Wilma was
not great. Apparently the only way
in which the retiring forces may ame=
Eorate the seemingly bad situation is
by a counter blow.
1t Is pointed out that Won linden
burg's cavalry has penetrated so
deeply into hostile country as to
create a salient open to sudden at
tacks, if, the Russians should be able
to command re-enforcements at the
proper time and place, but it is no.
believed here that his opponents are
in position to deal such blow ef-
fectively.
There Is great deal of Speculation
as to the German objective. Opinion
IS divided whether Won Hindenburg
Will seek merely to close his loop. thus
capturing the army within the net or
not content with this will press east
ward towards MASK and from the
West through Slonim in an effort to
reproduce the encircling movement
on a more gigantic scale and again
try 10 "a decisive victory. Similar
Tactics attempted after the fall of
Warsaw met with failure.
The Russians are employing their
familiar rearguard tactics and hope
Is expressed in the British press that
they VIII be able to fight their way
out without shattering losses.
Next to Warsaw, Wilma Is the most
important town in western Russia,
It is railway station of great milf
tary Importance. 1t was from wilma
that Napoleon fed in disguise in 1912
during the retreat from Moscow.

 A good number of the voters of Cypress township met at Ebeneezer last Friday night to discuss the Con- dray road law The first speaker ex- plained it as Mir. Condray explains it in his speeches. After that the measure was discussed by 10 or 12 others. A straw vote was taken and 75 voters voted against it. Not man in the house voted for it.

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
 l want to say few words in regard to the famous Condray road law. It seems that those who favor this law can find no ground upon which to base their arguments except that they would like to have a fine macadam road to haul their produce on. suppose there is not a farmer in Faulkner county that would not be proud of having macadam road through his community. But how are we to get this road? I find no sec tlon nor part of section in this bill indicating where these roads will be built. The commissioners are to say where they will be built and what they will cost. They will also appoint as sessors to assess the land at such val ues as the board directs.
 Quite a number of those favoring the law do not own a foot of land and are not interested in the welfare of the county in general. But they want to stand back and see the farmers build them a fine automobile road
 l have read pr. Thos. Watson's ar ticle and find it to be peach" in deed. He said there were some "lame ducks fighting the bill. They may be lame but are not handicapped to such an extent as to prevent them from dealing some terrible blows to this ridiculous law. How much land do you own, anyway, pr. Watson? How much taxes would you have to pay? 1 doubt whether he owns any land.

Edward Abeles in Film Version of Famous Mystery-Far "The Mil ion," Famous Players Paramount features at the Grand next Monday night
 The Famous Players Film Go. pre- sent Edward Abeles, the popular star in four-part photo-adaption of Hen- ry w. Savage's recent sensationally successful farce production "The Mil hon,' which has won the distinction of possessing more laughter and wholesome fun than any comedy of recent years. The continuous mirth proceeds equally from the action, cari- catures and situations of one of the most novel and ingenious plots ever presented on the stage or screen. If the old philosophers are right, and Laughter is wealth." then "The Mil lion" is well named.
 The subject also presents one of the most remarkable examples of character acting supplied in many years, in the impersonation of "Le Baron," the crook, by Edward Abeles. In the course of the story he is called upon to portray no less than six en- tirely distinct characters. With the assumption of each impersonation, Edward Abeles not only presents a wholly varied physical appearance, but lends to each of the six roles a totally distinct personaity-frst as the crook with the police paying at his heels; then, as Ike Damskinski, the secondhand clothing dealer of the Bowery, and following these two char acterizations, in rapid succession as the duplicate of the singer, Donatelli in which he convinces Donatelli that he is seeing things; as a reporter changing from the bearded Damskin, ski to a dapper newspaper man; a:

GRAND THEATRE.

For many years Joseph Jefferson toured the country in his stage yer sion of the story of Rip Van Win kle." So popular did his play become that he became one of the most wide ly known actors on the American stage. After his death his son, Thom- as Jefferson, took his fathers work and won equal distinction. In common with many other legitimate successes Rip Van Wrinkle" has now been pre- pared for the screen, and with most elaborate settings.
 Washington Irving's story was ar ranged for the stage by the elder Jefferson, and his original manuscript has been used in preparing the film version Besides this, Thomas Jeffer- son appears in the title role, thus making the production as close to that seen on the stage as possible.
