RE-ENACTED IN THE EAST
Austrian's Capture of Ostry Compar.
ed to Lookout Mountain.

Berlin reports: The storming by
Austrian troops Of Ostry mountain,
reported in the Austrian official bull
letin, is described by Tageblatt cor
respondent in the Carpathians as one
of the most brilliant feats OF noun
tain fighting of the war.
Ostry mountain, with its sister
height, Swinnin mountain, stormed
April 8. dominates the road and the
railroad from Munkacs to Lemberg.
It is approximately $500 feet high,
with precipitous sides. The Russians
had converted the mountain into a
fortress, with rows of trenches and
machine gun positions, and it ap-
parently was impregnable.
The Austrians. commanded by Gen.
Hoffman, according to the correspon-
dent, dashed from their positions and
charged up the precipitous height.
Position after position was taken.
Gaps torn in the Austrian lines by
machine gun fire closed automatically
as successive waves of troops swept
upward to success, the writer says,
''like the Federal charge at Lookout
mountain, probably beyond the eX-
pectations Of the commanders" and
the summit was occupied.

is something over 50 the bushel. One
retailer in Anderson uses about 500
pounds the week. The variety which

mends popcorn as one of the best

CRUISER GETS SUPPLIES
German Kronplinz Wilhelm Takes on
Food and Coal.

The German auxiliary cruiser
Kronprinz Wilhelm, which has been
in the port of Newport News, Va,
two weeks undergoing repairs to
make her seaworthy, early Monday
morning was towed from her anchor
age in James river to the Chesapeake
and Ohio coal pier, where she will
take on between $500 and 1000 tons
of bunker coal, it was stated at the
pier.
The Wilhelm also will take on
about a 10 days supply of water and
provisions, this being the estimated
time she would require to make the
nearest German port. The formal re-
quest for final supplies of provisions
and fuel was made several days ago.
Collector of Customs Hamilson stat
ed Monday, and after due considera-
ton was allowed.
Installation of boiler tubes and
other insider repairs were completed
it was said, and Capt. Tierichens will
be in position to attempt dash
past the eremy warships off the Vir-
ginia capes or sive notice that he de-
sires to intern within the next few
days, it is stated. The officers and
crew of the Wilhelm insist that they
will again put to sea to resume their
commerce destroying voyage.
Commander Thierfelder and Col
lector Hamilton were in conference
and it was reported that the collector
officially informed the captain of the
rapidly approaching date for deci-
sion as to internment or departure
from American waters.
1t is understood that on leaving
the coal pier, Capt. Thierfelder will
make formal request of the port au-
thorities for a river patrol to guard
his ship against possible hostile at
tack. If guard is requested,
launches from the Norfolk navy yard
probably will be detailed to the duty,
as in the case Of the Eitcl.

Sheriff and Posse Securing Greenville

Sheriff Hendrix Rector and a posse
are securing the upper end of Green
vile county and also Pickens in
search of negro who Saturday night
at $50 o'clock entered the home Of
a white woman near Travellers Rest,
in the upper section of the county,
and after assaulting her, robbed the
house. The negro called in the af-
ternoQn and talked to the woman and
asked where was her husband. He
retired to the woods until dark and
then surprised her.
A negro suspect was arrested early
Sunday morning by the sheriff, but
he was not the man, according to the
victim. She said the negro had had
scars on both cheeks and no mus
tache; the man caught had the scars
but a mustache. He also proved a
good alibi.
Reports are that the citizens in
the upper part of the county are
aroused and several have called at
the Jail to know if the right negro
had been caught, promising a visit
in case he had.

Railway has just completed and plac-

by 60 feet with separate inbound and
outbound warehouses, each 410 feet
long and ~ and 80 feet wide. re-
spectively. The building is of brick
on concrete foundation and presents
very attractive appearance. The
warehouses are served by four tracks
located between them. and by paved
driveways which with the overhang-

able teams to receive and discharge
freight regardless of weather condi-

In connection with the terminals
a new storage yard and new engine
yard were provided with facilities
for engine handling and the neces-
sary buildings for. the repair of en-
gines and cars. The terminal is COM
plete in every respect and provides
for a much greater volume of busi-
ness than the Southern has ever been
called on to handle at Mobile. 1t is
for the handling OF the business of
Mobile proper and is in addition to
the extensive facilities which South

Electric propelling machinery for
the new battleship California, the
first sea fighter of any nation to be
equipped with the electric drive, will
be built by the General Electric COM
pany of New York for S431.000. Sec
retary Daniels announced Monday
night. The California is building at
the New York navy yard, which sub
mitted an estimate Of S631, 900 for a
steam equipment.
Mr.. Daniels decision to install elec-
trio machinery has created. keen in
terest in naval circles, and some Of
fcers think the success of the expert
ment would mark as great an advance
in maritime propulsion as did the
event of the steam turbine.
Not only is the electric drive cheap
er to construct than a turbine in
stallation, said the secretary, but it
offers also superior economy in op-
Grafton, reduction in weight and
utilization of full power in backing.
