a Virginia girl of unusually charming
face and figure. In her exhibitions she
has most nearly approached professional
work. Until two years ago she was
merely very pretty young girl who
danced because she loved II in the ex-

a leading place in public popularity. She
has supplemented her own amateur deS-
terity with lessons from the leading
dance masters of the city. During her
previous appearance at the McAlpin.
where she continued for an entire year.
she was very widely identified in her
popularity with the most desirable Of
those who came to its restaurants for

SEVERE WINTER AHEAD
OF ARMIES in EUROPE
French Naturalist Predicts Early
Coming of Exceptionally
Cold Weather.

PARIS, October 9.-In view of the
near approach of the winter season and
the effect it's coming will have on the
military campaigns. interest has been
aroused by the prediction of Augustin
Rey, the naturalist and meteorologist,
that the winter will be an exceptionally
severe one.
NJ Rey has communicated to the
French government the reasons on
which he bases his opinion. He points
first to the premature snowfalls in the
Alps, which began early and reached to
low. attitudes, and to the behavior OF
vegetation, such as the fact that the
beeches began to lose their leaves in
August, while heather blossoms have
contracted at the base of 1.-The stem.
which, he stated, is an indication OF an
early and hard winter. Animals, TOO,
says the mountaineer naturalist, have
begun to prepare early for the winter,
field mice having dug themselves IN at
the height of. 1000 yards as early as
August 20. instead of late in Septem-
Der or early in October, as ordinarily.
Birds, too, have been migrating in ad-
vahce of the ordinary season.
MY conclusion" says the naturalist.
ais that the winter of 1915-16, by its
earliness. length and the low tempera-
lures il will bring, will resemble The
winter of 1S70-71."
The latter winter has been remem-
bered for it's extreme vigor.

GERMAN DEFENDS TURKS ACTION
INDEALING WITH ARANENIANS

BERLIN, via London, October g.
Count Ernst Won Reventlow. military
writer for the Tages Zeitung. in an ar
ticle in that paper under the headline
The Uproar About the Armenian
Atrocities Begins" declares fatty that
it is Turkeys own affair how she deals
with Armenian uprisings. His article
was inspired by the report that Henry
Morgenthau, the United States ambas-
sador to Turkey. had given Turkey no.
tice that her relations with the United
States would be endangered If the Ar
menian massacres were not stopped.
Count Won Reventlow declares. that he
is unable to discuss the matter as he
would like, but expresses the hope that
Turkey will not allow herself to be
frightened.
Not Massacres, He Says.
"If Turkey considers it necessary that
the Armenian uprisings and other in
trigues be suppressed with all means.
so that a repetition will be impossible,
that does not constitute massacres nor
atrocities" he continues. but simply
a measure of a justified and necessary
character, the more justified and the
more necessary from the fact that the
Turkish empire is in its hardest hight

GERMANS PREPARED FOR DRIVE
BY THE ALLIES AT SOUCHEZ

PARIS, October 9.-The recent at
tack by the allies at Souchez was fully
expected by the Germans, according to
a correspondent, writing from that
front. All their first line trenches had
been strongly manned, he says. and
companies which had been depleted as
a result of the continual artillery fire
had been brought to their full strength.
with the usual complement of officers.
Documents found on German ohcers,
the correspondent continues, showed
that the plan was to keep the French
forces behind the last heights Of the
Artois plateau, thus barring the route
to the plains Of Douai. while an I'm
perial order had demanded that
Souchez be held at all costs.
Big Guns Commanded Valleys.
The defense was organized accord
inely, with a formidable force of ar
tiiIery posted where it could command
the two valleys leading to the plains.
and all the ridges, with an enfilading
fire.
Five full days of constant cannonad-
ing had prepared the way for the
French attack" says the writer, "and
before the guns were hushed to per.
man deserters came into the French
trenches declaring. they had had
enough.
The cemetery of Souchez. where
more men have met death since June
than had been buried there in CEN

turtles, was one object of the first push
by the French on September 25, and 1t
was taken in the initial rush. while the
Careful and the southern blockhouses
Of Souchez also fell into French hands.
An enf1lading fire from German bat
teries at Angres retarded the advance,
but was unable to check 1t.
Suffocating Gas Futile.
within twenty minutes from the
time the order to advance had been
given the French troops had rushed
down the slope of Notre Dame de Lor-
cite and reached the edge of the for
est beyond. At that moment the Ger
mans tried the use of suffocating shells
to stem the tide. In. spite of the OBJ
secured atmosphere and the rain that
was falling, however. the French in
fantry continued to fight on, indiffer-
ent to the gas attack, and by clever
flank movement forced the Germans
out of the cemetery and decided to try
for SoucheZ, which had been rendered
untenable. The fight for this insig-
nificant village. beginning with last
spring, has cost many thousands in
dead and wounded. but it is now solid
ly in French hands, enabling the allies
to command almost uninterruptedly the
vast plain leading toward Lens and
Douai."
The correspondent says< that it was
learned from prisoners that the quail
ity of the German troops opposed to
and he declares that among many
youthful prisoners of the 1900 Ger
mans captured at Souchez was one
who was not yet fifteen years old.
