Says DISASTER SURPASSES
catastrophe At MESSINA

London, Jan. IA, 4.27 P. MA
news dispatch received here from
Rome says that the member of the
Chamber of Deputies for Lipari has
telegraphed to the capital that the
disaster of yesterday surpasses the Mes
sina catastrophe. The ruin is more wide
spread and the injury to life and limb
will be greater.
An employe of the municipality of
Avezzano, one of the few survivors of
the city, says the dead include the sub
project and the members of his family,
the whole staff of the prefecture, the
staff of the law courts, the mayor and
all the members of the municipal coun-
ell. Ninetyfive out of the one hun
dred soldiers who comprised the local
garrison lost their lives, as did four
out of the seven customs officials and
eight out of the nine local policemen.
This man was on the street when
the shock came. To him it seemed as
if everything fell to pieces at once. An
immense cloud of dust arose from the
ruins and completely veiled the sky.
The few survivors of Avezzano as
semhled in Torlonia square. Suffering
from shock if not from actual wounds
they were not capable of helping the
wounded buried in the ruins.

GERMANS Gain GROUND IN
FORCING BACK RUSSIANS
after FURIOUS FIGHTING

Petrograd Via London, Jan. IA,
$40 P. M.-Furious fighting has been
resumed in Russian Poland. The Rus
sian forces in the north which are push.
ing toward East Prussia, in the region
near Mlawla, have captured pumber
of villages.
In the center the Germans have made
four violent attacks within the last As
hours. They forced back the Russians
and occupied considerable ground.
Important bodies of Russian troops
have pushed northward from Warsaw
In the movement toward the western
end of the East Prussian frontier They
have reoccupied number of villages
between Mlawla and Przasnysz, hither-
to held by the Germans.
In the center, at the junction of the
Bzura and Rawha rivers where fighting
had been in progress for more than a
month, the Germans have begun new
movement of great vigor. Their ac-
tlvlty centers along a line to the east
of Sochaczew and Skierniewice. 1t is
here that they have made four distinct
efforts to advance during the last two
days. Following a furious artillery ac-
tlon. the Germans occupied the district
to the northeast of Bolimow, including
the towns of Bin Skupi and Sucha.
These positions are three or four miles
southwest of Sochaczew and FIVE miles
east of the Bzura, from which positions
there were reported officially to have
oeen driven out at the point of bayo-

kaiser Sees HIS TROOPS
ROUT The French FORCES
IN BATTLE near SOISSONS

Berlin, Jan. IA, BY Wireless to Lon
don, S.45 p. M.-Emperor William was
present in person during the spirited
battle on the Vregny plain, to the
northeast of scissors, which resulted
yesterday in that elevated ground be-
ing cleared of the French, and which
is described iL the German official state
ment given out this afternoon as "a
brilliant feat for our troops. In this
engagement the Germans claimed to
have captured IA French officers and
1,150 men. The text of the communi-
cation reads:
In the western theatre of the war,
in the dunes near Nieuport and south
west of Ypers heavy fighting is going
on. The enemy directed an extremely
strong fire ON weStende. which they
soon will have entirely destroyed. Their
torpedo boats disappeared quickly as
soon as they received our fire.
I'm continuation of the activities
on January s, northeast of scissors,
our troops again made an attack on the
heights of Vregny and cleared this
elevated plain of the enemy. In pour
ing rain and deeply sodden clay, trench
after trench was taken by storm until
after dark, and the enemy was driven
blck to the border of the elevatet I
plain. Fourteen French officers and
l,1S0 men were taken prisoners and
four cannon, four machine guns and a
searchlight were captured-a brilliant
feat for our troops under the very eyes
of their uppermost war lords.
Northeast of the camp of ChalOns
the French attacked again yesterday, in
the morning and afternoon, with strong
forces, to the east of Perthes. They
penetrated at certain places. our
trenches, but were repulsed by energetic
counter attacks and driven back with
heavy losses into their own positions,
leaving 100 prisoners in our hands.
In the Argonne and the VoSees

the eastern theatre of war Russian at

ready, and with the occupation by
Turkey of Tabriz in the Russian sphere
of influence in Persia.
This city of 100000 people appar-
emily was taken without fighting. On
the view of the fact that the small
Russian garrison maintained in Tabriz
in times of peace had been withdrawn
it is believed that the sufferers by the
occupation, if any, are the Armenians,
whom the Kurds constituting the Turk
ish advance guard are always ready to
attack.
To-day's dispatches from Petrograd
say that the Turkish invasion of Per-
sia continues and that the Turks are
penetrating farther into the country.
The Russians still claim to hold the
upper hand in the fighting in the eau
casus, in the vicinity of Kara-Urgan,
but that lack of details suggests that
the battle which has now been in pro-
gress for seven days has not yet result
ed decisively for either side.
The principal feature of to-day S
news in London is the resignation of
Count Won Berchtold, the Austrian for
eign minister. Some maintain that his
action indicates that crisis in the af.
fairs of the dual monarchy is at hand.

An Easy Way to
End Catarrh Forever
Simple Home Treatment Destroys Germs
of This Dangerous Disease


The reason why so many people who
suffer from Catarrh never seem able to
get cured is that they are continually
seeking the momentary relief of sprays,
douchlng, greasy creams, olntments.
etc. Such things do open up the swollen
nostrils and clear the head temporarily
beside stopping for a while the disgust
ing blowing, hawking, splitting and
choking but they never cure. To drive
out Catarrh for good you have got to
get down to its real causes. Catarrh is
a germ disease. The air is always full
of catarrh germs thrown off by one per-
son and absorbed by another and when
the system does fail to throw off such
germs they find permanent Judgement in
the nose, throat and head and multiply
rapidly
The germs of catarrh can best be de-
stroyed by inhaling the pure medicated
air of Hyomei pronounced Hy-o-me).
This splendid and powerful combination
of oil of Eucalyptus with other healing
agents has a wonderful germicidal ac-
tion. You breathe its air into your
nose, throat and lungs by means of a
small hard rubber inhaler which II. G.
Kennedy and other leading druggists
in this vicinity supply with every com
plete treatment. Th;s medicated air is
certain death to the germs OF Catarrh
and drives them completely out of your
system and when the germs are dc.
stroyed the catarrh with all its disagree.
able symptoms will stop. Even two or
three minutes, use will give refreshing
relief while if you win use it two or
three times day for few weeks it
will completely Danish catarrh and ev-
cry symptom of eatarrh. As Hyomei
is pleasant to breathe and is always
sold by druggists everywhere with
positive guarantee of successful results
or money back, surely no Catarrhal suf-
ferer should go long before trying this
simple home remedy
