One of the best beds for outdoor

When boughs enough have been

Dry leaves are an autumn substitute

Natural Fireworks.

The New York Sun describes re-
markable occurrence at Healdsburg,
Cal, when large quantities OF what Is
called meteoric floss fell from the sky.
The shower, which began between
seven and eight o'clock in the morn
ing. and reached its maximum about
ten, was seen by all the inhabitants OF
the town.
According to an eyewitness, the floss
first appeared high up. in perfectly
clear sky, as a mass OF stars, lustrous
metallic sheets. and silyery ropes. 1t
reached the earth In various shapes
and sizes, ranging from minute par
ticles to sheets 20 feet square, 1t fell
in such quantities that long ropes and
masses OF it hung from the telephone
and telegraph wires.
When the substance reached the
warm earth 1t began at once to con-
tract into fibrous masses, resembling
asbestos although tests proved that
ii was not that mineral. Most OF 1t
soon disappeared. although samples
OF 1t were saved and sent TO the Lick
observatory, and to the observatory at
Urbana, Italy.

all who bided in the hotel. Followed
a terrific bang. bang. ping-plng ping

Time wore on to las and guests

GERMANS CLOSE
IN ON WARSAW
Approaching the City From Two
Points.
RUSSIANS FIGHT FIERCELY
Official Statement Issued at Petrograd
Declares German Attack Repulsed
at Several Points on the
Front.

Berlin, via London, July H.-The
Germans have crossed the Narew river
on front from point south OF Os-
trolenka to Pultusk. Southeast of Pull.
tusk the Teutonic forces are approach
ing the Bug river.
These two advances Of the German
troops in Russian Poland are an
.nounced in Mondays official statement,
issued by the German army headquar-
ters STAFF.
The movement indicates that the
Germans are making for the Warsaw
Petrograd railway, which runs paral-
lei with the Bug river. IL miles to the
southeast.
Petrograd, via London, July 81
The following official statement was
issued from general headquarters to-
night:
There has been no fighting ip the
Mitau region. On the Janichiki-Sbavli-
Rossiany front the enemy continued
to advance eastward.
"On the Narew front an enemy at
tack on the left, back Of the PISA riv-
er Thursday night, was repulsed de-
spite his use of poisonous gas bombs.
The enemy is straining every effort
in an attempt to force the Narew In
Rozan-Pultusk sector and stubborn
fighting occurred here yesterday.
Attacks on our advanced positions
at Novogeorgievsk and 1vangorod were
repulsed. Between the Vistula and
the Bug there was vigorous fighting
in the direction Of Lublin and the en-
envy attempted an advance towards
Belzyce.
Severe fighting occurred on the
Khimiel-Voislavitze front. The Rus
slams made numerous successful coun-
ter-attacks Thursday night, penetrat-
ing as far as the enemy's artillery po-
sitions. Conditions Of the fighting,
however, did not permit of any guns
which the enemy abandoned being car
ried away.
In the region Of Grubechow con-
siderable forces were concentrated by
the enemy, who succeeded in advanc-
Ing somewhat to the northward after
severe engagements.
Fighting on the Bug In the region
of Sokol continued yesterday. New
German troops were reported as hav-
ing arrived.

MEXICAN SITUATION
GROWING WORSE
War Department Official Reports In.
dictate Widespread Distress-May
Force Wilson to Act.

Washington, July 23.-Offcial re-
ports given out at the war department.
indicating widespread starvation In
Mexico; the apparent failure OF the
Carranza government to sustain itself
In Mexico City, and the reoccupation
of the national capital by the Zapatis
tas. gave rise to the view again in Of
fetal circles that President Wilson
before long, will make public Few
plan for the pacihcation OF the repub-
lie.
Brig. Gen. c. A. Devol. sent by the
war department to take charge of the
American Red Cross efforts to relieve
the suffering in Mexico, has made a
report on conditions there. 1t Is re-
garded as of great significance that 1t
should have been made public at this
time by Mr.. Garrison.
General Devol expresses the opinion
that the people of Mexico are being
abused by the leaders of "all factions"
and that there appears to be no fu-
ture for adequate relief, even II the
American people would contribute for
this purpose. This, however. they
have only done to very limited ex-
tent to this date.
General Devol says there have been
large exports Of food supplies out Of
Mexico to the United States and to
Cuba, He estimates that two thou
sand carloads Of beans have been sent
out Of the country. He states that
General villa and his generals have
prohibited the purchase Of supplies In
Mexico because there Is an export tax
which is collected for the benefit Of
the military leaders and this amounts
to four hundred to five hundred dol
lars for each car that crosses the bor-
der The Red Cros was not permit
ted to buy supplies In Mexico although
corn could be purchased on the Mexi-
can side for Sc cents per bushel The
Mexicans insisted that It should be
bought In the United States.

Fighting the Mosquito Pest.

Mosquitoes usually breed in stand.
ing water and one good way of elm
mating them is to eliminate ponds and
pools No bit of stagnant water is too
small or filthy for these pests to breed
and thrive in, provided only it remains
long enough for these pests to reach
full growth.
Draining or filling in marshy land.
dredging the margins of lakes so there
will be no weed growth along the
shore. and introducing small fish in
ponds are among the best methods of
relief.
A ilm of kerosene oil placed on the
surface OF water prevents the wrig.
glers. as the mosquitoes, in their first
stage, are called, from developing. This
Is an effective way TO exterminate the
pest when il is not possible to drain
ponds and other collections of stand
ing water. Rain barrels and cisterns
should be screened.
