Paris, July 8.-The British and
French have defeated the Turks and
Germans in a tremendous air, land and
sea battle in the Dardanelles, it is of
ficially announced. The Turks began
the attack Monday, when Turkish bat
teships entered the straits and shelled
the Allies trenches. The Turks Ash
attic lortresses developed tremendous
fire and hurled shells across the
strait into the British French defenses,
and a flotila of German and Turkish
ayiators sailed over Gallipoli, bonn
harding the trenches. At dusk the
Turkish infantry stealthily advanced
along the beach and attacked the Brit
ish in the rear.
The French, on high cliffs, turned a
sudden and terrific fire into the Turks,
forcing a disorderly flight. The Brit

Rome, June 22.-HoW does a Carl

with one of them today and got as
far as the railroad station. He talked

His father Rccoti Garibaldi, went
to the war office and said:

my four sons to Italy
Having already given two sons to
France in the same way, the elder
Garihaldi's action was really thrill
ing.
And so Guiseppi Garibaldi, the eld-
est son, started off today for the front
with his FL Paso handbag. We talk
of old days in Mexico, when the ill
starred Madero was busy at his task
of upsetting the dynasty of Diaz.
Remember the day Villa came over
to FL Paso to kill you?"I asked.
"That story was wrong" said Carl
haldi. at wasn't | whom Villa want
ed to kill, but he did draw his gun
on me. Here's just the way that in
cident happened" and, as we ratified
over the cobblestones of Rome, in a
Roman coach, he, a Garbaldi, off for
war, told me of that thrilling five
minutes in the lobby of the Sheldon
hotel in far-away FL Paso.
"Villa found that one of his sol
diers had been insulted by an Irish
man, who was in my Madero brigade,
and he came over to Ell Paso to kill
the fellow. He carried two big guns

What War Moves Mean.
( BY j. w. T. Mason)

written for the United Press)
New York, July 7.-Germany's new
objective in the west is developing it
self as drive against Warsaw from
the south coupled with the isolation
in southern Russia of the Slavs who
are being forced from Galicia. This
double intention was the purpose of
the offensive in August. 1t failed
then and success is not certain now.
General Won Lisingen is pushing the
Slavs through eastern Galicia toward
the Russian border. Once over their
own frontier they will be prevented
from reaching Warsaw by a direct
route because of tie extensive
marshes in southern Poland. Be cen
these marshes and the Vistula Field
Marshal Won Mackenzen is operating
The only way the Russians, defeated
in Galicia, can attack Won Macken-
zen'S forces is along the narrow plain
running from the Galician frontier
northeast of the marshes. This gate
way must be closed by Won Macken-
zen and he is closing it with his right
wing.
The rest of Won Mackenzen's army
is moving toward Ivangorod, the only
fortified center on the Vistula south
of Warsaw, which is without forti-
fications. The Polish capital is ae-
Tended by field army in two en-
trenched camps along the Vistula. One
is Novogeorgievsk, 20 miles north
west, and the other is Ivangorod, so
miles to the south.
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg tried
to capture Warsaw from Novogeorge-
visk and failed. He also tried to sub
due Ivangorod from every direction
except that which Won Mackenzen is
taking. The effort of Field Marshal
Won Mackenzen is therefore the final
hope of the Germans.

WRONG VIEWS OF MARRIAGE
Brooklyn Lawyer Tells Of Some Popu-
lar Impressions That Are Entire
Iy Erroneous.

Some persons believe, says Mr.
Hugo Hirsh of the Brooklyn bar, In
Case and Comment, that marriage
can be entered into by any man or
woman. regardless of age. race, re-
lationship, or condition. But in this
they are mistaken. for every state has
its own peculiar laws regarding. limit.
ing and circumscribing entrance into
this relationship as the same may be
affected by those provisions.
Some persons believe that fraud,
force. duress. coercion, used for the
purpose of bringing about marriage
between man and woman, do not af.
feet the legality Of the relationship,
but in this they are mistaken. because
every state and territory has a law
providing for the annulment of mar.
riages caused by fraud, force, etc.
Some men believe that wives are
chattles and may be beaten into sub
mission. This is grave error, for In
many of the states such conduct is
cause for an absolute divorce. and in
nearly all of the states 1t Is cause for
a legal separation.
