the ceremony to their cottage at
Lake Cobbosseecontee they discov.
cred their automobile had not been
fast enough to ward off an obviously
premeditated and accomplished feat

yond their anticipations. Further
more, they had hardly arrived at their
honeymoon home when Just round
and happy dozen of their friends
from Augusta were on the scene to
render them most appropriate sere-
made. Nor was this all. for the band
Of serenaders brought with them
more than noise and rendered to the
bride one fine present which before
had been overlooked. The fine re-
ception to the party, which the new
lyweds extended, showed their ample
appreciation Of the gaity Of the event
as we'll as for the rather tardy gift.

pleasingly and the gathering proceed

most tip of the Galician battle
line.
Russians Reinforced

1t is apparent that the Russians
since being forced back to the San.
have been rushing up heavy REIN
forcements in the hope Of averting
the fall Of Przemysl. But the Austro-
Germans, undeterred by the stipend
Gus losses, have as yet shown little
disposition to accept a purely defen-
sive role and the British critics seem
to have been a bit premature in say
ing that the German thrust had def1n-
itely failed.
No British official communication
was issued today. The French con-
fine themselves. generally speaking, to
recounting their success at Ablain-
ST. Nazaire.
The German official statement ig-
nores this and tells Of minor gains
elsewhere. 1t adds that the French
effort to break through the German
lines has failed.
