GERMANS CAPTURE
100000 RUSSIANS

LONDON, May 21.-Berlin claimed
that 100000 Russian prisoners, 72
cannons and 253 machine guns had
been captured on the Przemysl drive
since May 1. The great battle around
Ypres and Arras has been renewed
desperately Braving the machine
guns, the Germans ousted the allies
from the trenches north of Ypres, but
the allies made counter attack and
won new ground.
The British renewed the drive to-
ward Lille. Several British attacks
south of Neuve Chappelle and French
attacks in ALLEY woods failed under
hot artillerying.
The three hundred thousand locked
in the great battle of North Jaro-
salau may meet the fate of Przemysl.

would present an unmissable target
to rifles and aircraft guns. There
were no days at Vera Cruz when the
weather prevented our navy airmen
from flying and it is safe that our
army airmen, few as they may be,
are equally expert.
In map making the British army
excells. There are field kites for map
makers by which small maps can be
turned out rapidly; even colored maps
can be made in the fighting zone
These maps show even the positions
of scattered houses, as well as bridges
wind mills and hay stacks, and they
are SO plentiful that even the nom
commissioned officers may possess
them. How well Mexico is mapped
in the war department at Washing
ton, no one but the experts know,
but there were no map making kites
visible at Vera Cruz and the only
maps were those that were laboriously
patched out from existing railroad
maps and others.
1t is not possible, however, or fair
to draw the comparison too closely
between the British army in the field
and the forces which General Funston
brought to Vera Cruz. General Funs-
tons force was intended for oecupa-
ton only, and not necessarily for
advance, while the British army is
outfitted and ready to proceed to
Germany.

CABINET CONSIDERS ANSWER.


WASHINGTON, d. c., May 21.-
President Wilson and cabinet are con-
sidering Ambassador Gerard's conf
Dental reports. 1t is understood they
are comparatively optimistic, because
Germany desired to meet them more
than half way.
1t is indicated that Germany declar-
ed the allies were relying on the Unit
ed States for munitions which are
superior, and they can hardly blame
the Germans for trying to destroy
merchantmen and even passenger yes
sells carrying munitions. Evidently
this is the crucial point in the nego-
tiations.

Looking BACKYARD Forty Years.


Tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock will
mark 40 years when the old man of
the Herald footed it into Howards-
vile, San Juan county, with five other
companions with all our worldly POSI-
sions packed on the backsc of two
ponies which we picked up in Dem
yer. OF those five believe all have
passed to the Great Beyond, and we
can call to mind of only few who
claimed Silverton or the upper Ami
mas their homes. Charley Pearson
was at Howardsville with stock of
fresh meat, doing business in tent.
John L. McNeal and Fred Camp were
at Del Norte in the banking bust
ness. T. C. Graden was not far away.
F. R. Graham was doing stunt in
and about the mines of Silverton, as
well as Senator George West. To
those who are left time has dealt gen.
erously with SO far as health and
weight of years. There were no towns
in the Grand valley, the whole coun-
try that was not owned and occu-
pied by the Indians was practically
void of civilization, some cattlemen
scattered over the territory west Of
the range was the extent Of popula-
ton.

"In the Days of the laundering

III tut VI
Herd"
Last summer several of our people
had the pleasure of meeting one of the
most interesting characters of the
west, Major G. w. Lille, more famil-
iarly known as "Pawnee Bill" Now
an opportunity to see his wonderful
ranch in Oklahoma, where over seven
hundred Pawnee Indians maintain
their tepees and the largest herd of
buffaloes roam, is going to be af-
forded by the movies. Tuesday even
ing at the Gem, the famous picture,
"In the Days of the laundering
Herd" a story of western life with
setting of the stirring times of
40, is going to be presented. 1t is
generally conceded that no other
movie production of the early day
life in the west has ever equaled it.
Along with the thrilling adventure,
charming love story is associated
The picture is one that will appeal
to all ages. The school children will
want to see the elephants, the In
dians and score of other things, and
in order to accommodate them, Mr..
Taylor has arranged for matinee
Tuesday afternoon after school. The
grown-ups will have chance to view
the picture in the evening. Come
early and get n good seat as the
house is certain to be crowded to the
limit.

not an easy matter to estimate what
one thousand dollars or ten thousand

at once be noticeable. THE HERALD
