THE RUSSIAN OPERATIONS

PETROGRAD, Feb 25-According to the official ac- counts published today here the struggle in the Carpath forces in that quarter have nothing fear apparently but the fighting in the Polish region to the south of East Prus sia is admittedly becoming critical The Russians now hold the Capathans between the Sandec and the UzOk passes and are advancing from the DOnaec river to take the Sandec The Russian army is also advancing from Grodno on Seniewcz in force and is at present meet ing little opposition The sO-caled East PrusSan battle extends from the right bank of the Narew river through PrzasnySz to BodzimOw on the Vistula river The Ger mans have taken the aggressive along the whole front Two regiments of the enemy have been captured in the woods of Augustowa where large force of them was surrounded by the Russians. The remainder happened to cut their way through but frghtfu loss The Rus sian armies are now striving to protect their line all along the Vstua as the capture of the positions that stream would unqueStonably place our armies at disadvantage The general opinion in Russia IS that Germany IS launch ing supreme effort to secure Warsaw and the other Wis tua positions so that she might concentrate all her force against the allied armies in the western field.

geon which shows that in future all rumors about the i'll treatment of wounded prisoners at the hands of the Russians must be carefully examined. He writes:
 "In Lodz I saw our wounded who on November 23 and 24 fell into the hands of the Russians. It must be stated for the sake of justice that they have been extremely well treated and that they are all praising the Russians It would be good to give this wide publicity because it would comfort many whose relatives are in the hands of the Russians"

 Deputy Marshal Casler went back to his post at Unga this morning.
 The Spokane Chronicle of February 4 relates the invention of a new power sled which will be used to carry mails in Alaska. The sled is propelled by an air motor that was formerly used in a Curtis bi-plane and generates A horse power. l.. s. McGregor of Spokane is the inventor but the story is rather spoiled by the statement that the sled will be shipped to St. Michaels soon. The writer seems to have forgotten that if the sled is a success it could sail over the trail to St. Michael several months before St. Michael is open from the sea. But the sled might get to St. Michael in time to be converted into a boat
 In the next few boats a large num- Der of Iditarod people are expected. J. F.. Riley who passed through this city some time ago stated that per haps two hundred people would go over the trail to IditarOd by way of Seward this spring. When it is ru- mOred that the Mariposa has been sold out there is every reason to believe the rumor as the Iditaroders will probably flock together on the way up.

things be put in readiness we'll ahead
Of time. Bar Harbor is out for an un-
usually gay summer. The cottages
are rented we'll. and the demand for
hotel accommodations is eminently
/ satisfactory. The same reports come
from everywhere.
No esp cial form OF anu sement is
heralded as an attraction, but there
is enough, II the routine of other days
be followed out, to insure all the gay
ETY. that can be desired
There are to be more subscription
affairs this summer than usual, al
though as yet no elaborate entertain
ments to he given by individuals have
been decided upon. 1t Is not yet fash
iona hle to entertain in too !, wish a
| fashion and subscription affairs have
proved much more successful during
! the winter than has been the case for
years, SO successful that they UNI
doubtedly will be carried n for an
other six months at least.
Now that the long season at the
Metropolitan Opera has ended society
! will be thrown on It's own resources,
as the opportunity for gathering en-
masse will he lacking. Throughout
i last week the audiences for the fare
] we'll performances of the opera season
were decidedly brilliant and interest
| ing, largely for the reason that so few
| Of the leaders Of social spheres have
/ been able to get away to Europe, as
/ has been the case for many years,
1t is difficult to remember any sea-
! son when society has been so well
! represented at the opera so late in the
/ spring. and this will no doubt be Of
| advantage TO the theatres for some
! time to come, as there seems to be no
| immediate desire to give up the COM
forts Of city life for the freedom Of the
! country.
Matters Of social Importance in town
are dropping down and there remain
| but few evAlts of importance.
Wednesday seems to be the day

Prices.


The question is often asked why
our prices are uniformly the lowest.
The principal reason for our excep-
tionally low prices lies in the pertinent
fact thar we invariably buy for cash.
We take full benefit Of time discounts.
and give these discounts 10 our friends,
in lower prices than would otherwise
obtain.
And again, buying for cash enables
us TO offer very unusual values. In
the course OF business, reputable man
ufacturers and importers find II neces-
sary 10 raise money on short notice.
They know our reputation FOR MAX
ing sighi-payments, and when such
conditions as these confront them.
they come 10 us and make offers
which thew could NOT. or would not,
in any circumstances submit TO others.
They know thar the money they
need will he available the moment
the transaction is closed.
The store with cash at It's disposal
can always obtain the best and give
| the best.
The store can select what II wants
and only what will completely serve
It's purpose.
II is in this way thar the Abraham

When the electrician talks about
the load" he refers to the amount
of light being consumed and the
amount of energy expended in turn
ing machinery. This must be adjust
ed so it balances absolutely with the
amount flowing over the line, and the
amount of load may vary every min
ute of the day and night as lights
are turned on and off or motors are
working or idle. There is an auto
matte indicator to measure the de-
mand for energy, and it instantly
opens and closes a governor to suit
the demands of trade. An endless
roll of white paper in an automatic
machine receives the record of an
automatic pen recording what the
volt meter says is on the line. If it
were desirable to know just what
amount was flowing last Chistmas
at 1923 in the evening, the record
is there, and the pen is marking it
down in red ink as you read this.
While we watched the governor, Sup
