the Austro Germans to-day are as.

Never perhaps since before the

Allies appeared so confident Of sue
cess. Having failed in their original
plan of crushing France and then
turning to Russia, they have reyers-

now, judging by the expenditure Of
life and ammunition in Gallo a, they
have pinned their whole faith on par

the throwing of a tremendous weight
of men and metal into the west, there
either to break through the Franco

period of sanguinaly warfare.
A dispatch from Copenhagen says
that the German emperor himself
has taken supreme command Of the
Galicia campaign, establishing his
headquarters in Silesia as near to the
front as practicable.

How will total abstinence most eff
fectively appeal to the boy in his
teens? asks many a mother and many
a teacher. The angle of vision most
likely to interest him in that which
emphasizes bodily efficiency. Hear
what that experienced educator, Hon
Edward Hyatt, superintendent oil
public instruction for the state OF
California, has to say about it:
Many a boy, If he could look upon
his body as a machine, could stand
at himself with the same eyes with
which he regards his bicycle, would
be made sensible of the danger. use
lessness and utter folly OF trifiing
with a habit that has overthrow
millions of strong ones who thought
1t a joke until it was too late to see
that death hid behind the mask.
This is an age of mechanical in
yention. 1t is an age OF comprehen-

mechanism, even by the very young,

constructive terms, Of the relation OF
parts to other parts, Of loss by fric-
ton. chemical waste, or chemical
agents that preserve a machine and

body-than which there is no more

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

New York, Jan. Especial: The
f~orty-fourth anniversary of the capt.
ulation of Paris to the Prussians
finds a Prussian army again on
French soil and only a comparatively
short distance outside OF the gates
of the capital.
In honor of the German emperor's
birthday his troops have concentrat-
ed their energies upon gaining
ground along the northern front in
France. but apparently the allies
have been preparing for just such an
attack, and, according to the official
announcement from the French war
office, have succeeded in checking an
advance. To the west of Scissors
and around Craonne the fighting has
been of unusual severity and the Ger
mans are reported to have suffered
heavily, leaving 1000 dead on the
field. Likewise the German state
ment claims successes.
In the eastern theater of the war
probably the most important item re-
lates to the recapture by the Aus
TRANS, as officially announced at vi
emma of Uzsok pass, one of the most
important of the Carpathian passes,
which has been in the hands of the
Russians for several weeks, and for
the occupation of which there has
been much desperate fighting.
There is little to add to previous
reports regarding the relative posi-
lions OF the opposing forces in Rus
sian Poland, Gallcia and East Prus-
STA.
The operations in the C~arpathians
are attracting much attention at Pet
rograd, where 1t is believed the pro-
posed expedition against Serbia has
been abandoned, and the German
forces which were intended to take
part In this expedition have been
united with the Austrians, bringing
together a total of 100000 men with
the object of holding back the Rus
slams moving through Bukowina.
While Vice Admiral Sir David
Beatty, in his preliminary report OF
the sea fight of last Sunday, adheres
to the former statement of the Brit
ish admiralty that no British war
vessels were sunk, Germany tenaci-
ously holds to its assertion that a
British battle cruiser and two Brit
ish torpedo boats were sent to the
bottom of the North sea.
The British admiralty, in a later
statement of this engagement, says
1t is reported that the German light
cruiser Kolberg, in addition to the
armored cruiser Bluecher. was sunk
The German emperor's birthday
was celebrated with much enthus-
iasm throughout Germany. The en-
peror at a religious service at his
headquarters delivered an address
expressing his satisfaction with the
progress of the war.
