BIG GAINS CLAIMED
 BY ITALIAN FORCES

Geneva, July zo.-Despatches to the Tribune say that large gains have been made by the Italians since July 16. According to these advices the Austrians have lost more than five miles in Cadore and lesser amounts in Carnia and various other districts The Austrfans have recaptured two positions near Tolmia. and north of San Luca. The Tribune also pub fishes a despatch from the Russian front saying that on the night of Ju- ly 1T-18 fierce hand-to-hand en- counter occurred, on tho Rawka river in Russian Poland. After IS hours of fighting the Russians forced back their opponents several miles, cap turing several hundred prisoners.

SUPREME COURTS
 BRIDGE DECISION IMPORTANT TO CITY

The plans of the city of Bridgeport in building the Stratford avenue, Grand streeG and Fast Washington avenue bridges will be influenced by the supreme courts decision in the Norwalk bridge cases. In this decision just handed down, the court finds that the law giving the Public Utilities commission Jurisdiction in bridge con struction is constitutional. This re- verses the decision of Judge Burpee of the superior court.
 Tn the Norwalk cases the comm1s- sion ordered the Connecticut co. to lay two tracks across Washington street bridge. The company appealed to the superior court from this and the city of Norwa1k appealed from the amount of costs taxed. So when the new bridges in this city are started the Utilities commission will have full power to adjust questions between the Connecticut Go. and the city. It is claimed that the Connecticut GO. will be asked to pay one-third of the cost of the Stratford avenue bridge.

Story of Steel Flea Made In Ger
 many and Sent to Russia.
 The Russian peasants, of course, are neither scientists nor technologists; but even they think that they can do few things-and especially work met als-as ski1lfuIly as anybody. A cen tury or two ago, according to a folk tale current in Russia, the gossudar fthe czar) called together a dozen or more peasants who had reputation for skill in the working of metals and exhibited to thenaaa steel flea of natu- ral size which had been made in Ger many'' and had been sent to him, part ly as a gift and partly to show the deli cacy of the German smiths work. The gossudar handed it to the peasants on plate and said:
 Look at thatl You think that you can work metals, but don't believe there's one of you can duplicate that steel dea-
 The peasants said, Perhaps not, ba- tushka ditt1e father), but if you will let us ta&e the flea home we will see what we can do.r
 The czar consented, and they retired. A day or two later they reappeared, and with low bows presented to their monarch on plate the same German flea, but without the expected dupli- cate
 -saAATv said the ear You couldn't make another. I knew you couldn't
 ssWin your majesty deign to look at the flea through magnifying glass ?s' replied the peasants.
 A glass was brought, and upon close inspection it was found that the Rus sian metal workers had shod the Ger man flea with steel shoes Outlook.
