Assault on BreSt
Litovsk Begun.
PLAN DRIVE ON CAPITAL
TeutOns Transfer Large Force
to Northern Front.

London, Aug. 2O.-The assault on
Brest Litovsk, main base of the Rus
sian field armies and one of the
strongest fortresses of Europe, has
begun.
The outer works are under attack
by the Austro-German armies; infan.
try divisions are closing in about the
place and siege guns are being
brought up to batter at the inner de.
fenses.
Military men think that Brest Lii
toysk will be evacuated by the Rus
slams within a fortnight The fall of
Kovno the advance of the Germans
against the Koyno-Brest Litoysk rail
way and the threat against Petrograd
itself will make it necessary for
Grand Duke Nicholas to abandon en-
tirely the Brest-Litovsk line and
wheel his armies northward to defend
the Russian capital. ii is believed.
Russian artillery is covering the
retreat OF the Kovno garrison in the
direction of Wilma, the railway cen.
ter toward which the German rush is
directed.
South of Kovno the German armies
of Won Scholtz and Won GallwitZ are
hammering hard at the Russian lines
defending the important Bielotsk
Rrest Litovsk railway. The Russian
war Office admitted stubborn fight
ing i'm this section, with alternating
successes"
Petrograd also admitted heavy Ger
man attacks upon the forts of Novo
Georgiewsk, but declared there had
been no change in the situation
around Brest-Litovsk.
Persistent reports have reached
here that the Germans are transfer
ring whole army corps from the south
ern to the northern front and are pre-
pairing for a drive on Petrograd after
seizing the railway at Wilma.

London. Aug 20 The White Star
line steamship Arabic has gone down
off Fastnet, small island four miles
southwest of Cape Clear, Ireland
The Arabic was sent to the bottom
by a torpedo from a German subma-
rine not far from the point at which
the Lusitania was sunk.
The Press association makes the
definite announcement that the Arabic
was sunk. 1t also says its passengers
and crews were saved by a steamship.
The Arabic is reported to have gone
to the bottom in eleven minutes.
The White Star company announc-
ed that the Arabic had on board 17O
second and third class passengers and
no first class passengers. There were
240 men in the crew, making a total
of 4l0 persons on board. II sailed
from Liverpool at 3 y. m. Wednesday.
A message received by the White
Star line says ii is hoped that many
or most of the passengers on the
Arabic and the crew were saved
THE Arabic was sunk off Irish
coast Fifteen or sixteen boatloads
are making for Queenstown"
This message, and the number OF
boats making for Queenstown, the com
pany deduces, indicates most of the
persons on board were rescued.

The total, including those lost in
the city, from ships and in the low

probably never will be known.

hurricane with a minimum loss of

FASHION seems more steadfast in
! continuing to favor beaded and
spangled tunics and dress trimmings
than we had reason to expect But
such wonderful things are wrought by
means of beads, sparkling rhinestones
and mock jewels, that there is nothing
just to take their places Besides, the
variety possible in using these vehicles
ds unending.
Nearly all the tunics, coatees and
overdresses that glimmer and sparkle
with sequins or beads are made of net
to which the beads or spangles are
sewed. But occasionally a splendid
tunic or dress ornament is made entire
ly of strands Of beads or brilliants
without fabric foundation. It is worn
over gown of satin and chiffon usual
ly for these seem to form just the right
background
A really gorgeous overgarment of
beads, suited to a matronly wearer, Is
shown in the picture given here.
A study of it will reveal a wonder
fully clever use of strands of beads in
festoons and fringes and wonderfully
graceful shaping of them into the bod
ice and tunic. Splendid as this beau
tiful thing is, it is not for the youth
