Smith was smilingly referred to.
Speaking Of Smith," interposed an.
other of the bunch, Il met him yes

with a petition trying to collect money
for a poor widow that she might pay
her rent"
What's that" exclaimed the
amazed crowd, AL of whom knew
Smith. Collecting funds for a widows
rent! Watch out for the millennium
at 6 a. m. tomorrow"

RUSSIANS AGAIN RETREATING
After Making Stand Along the Bug,
Siavs Retire Before Aus
tro-Germans.

Vienna, via London, Aug. 16.-After
making a stand on the entire front of
the Bug, the Russian forces are again
%retreating before the Austro-Germans
all along that line, according to a n
official statement Issued at the Aus
trian wal Office.
The text of the communication fol-
lows:
IN the Russian theater: Our adj
versary again made a halt on the
whole front west Of the Bug in pre-
pared positions, but the allied armies
attacked and cleared their way
through the hostile lines at several
points. Since early morning the Rus
slams everywhere are again in re-
treat.
in the Italian theater: On the
southwestern front generally there
has been greater activity. In the re-
gion of Gorzia our artillery fired some
bombs on st. Canzian. A hostile at
tack near R%adipuglia collapsed before
our fire. The bridge head at Gorilla
was held by the Italians under mod.
crate gun fire."
