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

New York, Aug. Especial: The
Russian war minister. speaking at the
opening session of the duma, made
what will probably be looked upon as
an official announcement that War
saw will be given UP. He admitted
hat the Austro-Germans were enyel-
oping the territory and military dis
tricts of the Polish capital and de-
clared:
I'VE shall perhaps yield to the en-
envy a portion of this region, falling
back on positions where our army
will prepare for a resumption of the
offensive. We shall today perhaps
give up Warsaw, as in 1912 we gave
up Moscow, i'm order to insure a final
victory"
The Germans and Austrians con-
tinue to make progress i'm their cam
paign for the possession of Warsaw,
but the Russians are still Offering
strong counter offensive movements
against the attacks along the V~istula,
near Ivangorod, between the Upper
Vlstula and the Bug. and in the Ma
rev sector, near Rozan.
In the eastern sector of the Lublin
region, where for days the fighting
has been extremely violent, several
additional points have been evacuat-
ed by the Russians, according to Ber-
lin, and they are declared to be in
retreat on both banks of the Bug and
on the front between the Bug and
south of Leezna. The Teutons have
passed through Chelm on the heels
of the Russians.
The Russians have been elected
from the heights near Podzamcze on
the east bank of the Vistula. in the
region OF Ivangorod and TO the south
near Kurow, which lies eastward of
Nowo Alexandria.
Thus ii will be seen that the Teu-
tonic allies are driving their wedges
both eastward from the Vistula and
northward between the Bug and the
Vistula in their mighty effort to cap
ture the capital, and. If possible, to
envelop those forces of the Russian
grand duke who are endeavoring by
rear guard actions to hold them back
i'm order that the main Russian army
may gain the positions assigned to il
on the new line along the eastern
border of Poland.
The artillery has been the chief en-
CINE of the warfare on the western
line, although the British and the
Germans near Hooge. in Belgium an6
the French and Germans nea Sou.
chez. in France, have been at grips in
infantry attacks and counter attacks
The Germans have brought large
numbers of aeroplanes into play In
the western region and have BON
barded both French aeroplane sta.
tions. There also has been a battle
between six German a%eroplanes and
fifteen French machines over Cha.
teau-Salines. Berlin reports that sew.
eral of the French machines were
forced TO land. that the Germans suf-
fered no losses. In return the Ger
man aerodrome near Douaic was the
target for a hostile air squadron.
Further details of the sinking o.
the British steamer Iberian by a Ger
man submarine shows that three
Americans. instead of one, were kill.
ed. and that three Americans also
were wounded. In all. six men me-
death in the disaster and six were
wounded.

MONTH WITHOUT SALOONS
Police Department of Aberdeen
Makes Monthly Report.

Aberdeen, Aug. 3.-On July 81,
Aberdeen completed its first month
without saloons, the town having
gone dry on July /. The police de-
partment figures for July form an in
teresting comparison with the figures
for July, 1914, when Aberdeen had
eighteen saloons. In July, 1914,
there were 12S arrests made by the
police, II of which were for drunk
enness. In July. 1915, there were
but 40 arrests and only Is we're for
drunkenness, and 13 of the others
were bicycle riders, for riding on
sidewalks, a minor offense. But in
July, 1915, there was paid $83 in
fines, while in July. 1914, of the per
sons convicted of ~offenses many more
preferred to spend from ten to thirty
days i'm Jail, and there was only so
paid into the city treasury in the
form of fines.

Huron, Aug. 3.-The state fair has
a hive full of bumblebee souvenirs.
which will be sent free to all South
Dakota boys and girls who ask for
them. These buzzing %curiosities can
not sting because they have no sting
ers. In fact they "a fly only in cir
cles, not in a straight line.
Last year the fair gave the boys
and girls souvenir jumping horses,
for which hundreds of requests were
received each week. According to
Secretary McIlvaine, the new humble
bee souvenirs are far more fun than
the jumping horses. So get busy,

Miss Kate Adams of Coulter House,
who is devoting her time to the prob

astray, asked the question, ''Is there
any solution to the problem of prOsti-
tuition" of a girl who is most con-
cerned, girl who is soliciting on the
streets of Chicago today.
From the story this girl has told me
of her mother, there wasn't time for
romance or dreams, and yet think
it was the divine spark of beauty in
the mothers heart that made her give
the name of Violet to the little baby
girl born twenty-three years ago, for
her eyes are like two violets, deep,
deep blue, and wonderfully beautiful
Not alone has she beautiful eyes,
but she has hair like spun gold and
features so finely nodded as to seem
chiseled from marble.
Her eyes opened very wide when
asked her this question.
do you mean is there any way
to stop girls going on the street or to
pick them up when they are on the
street,"
Both" I answered. SIS there any
way by which prostitution can be
stopped and the victims of it restored
to a condition where they will not
continue in the life nor other girls
start?"
She laughed, and it wasn't a very
