Invaders After Forcing
RostOk Pass Cut Off Foes
Eastern Wing.
NOW CONTROL ROAD

fBy Cable 70 The Tribune. !

Petrograd, April 6.-Ihe Russians,
after forcing their way through the
Rostok Pass of the Carpathians, have
succeeded in cutting the Austro-Ger-
man army in two, according to dis
patches received to-day from the
front. The capture of the town of
Smolnk, mentioned casually in the
General StafT's communique on Tues
day night, carried the apex of the Rus
sian wedge well within the opposing
front
Smolnik controls the one road lead
ing through the Beskids range of noun
tains to the Hungarian entrance Of
the Czsok Pass, twenty miles to the
east, and the invading army now has
an open way for an advance against
the rear Of the Austrian army, which
is struggling desperately against the
reinforced Russian columns at the
Galician end Of the Uzsok
Eastern Army in Danger.
The eastern wing OF the Austrians,
under General Boerovitch, conse.
quently, is in a very perilous position.
The Russians have advanced in great
force through the passes of Dukls,
LopkOw and Rostok, and are in posi-
tion to dispatch considerable
strength against the Uzsok position of
the Austrians.
The western wing of the Austrian
army has its base at Gummenoe, and
its communications along the roads into
Hungary are quite safe. The eastern
wing, joined with the forces operating
around Uzsok, is, however, threatened
with attack.
1t is regarded as likely that the Aus
trians will be compelled to transfer
their base at Uzsok in the direction of
Munkacs, or else accept battle at
Uzsok, handicapped by the lack of
roads. In either case the Austrians
will find themselves cut off from tho
main army under General Boeroyitch
and his German reinforcements.
ROAD Olear 10 ilalns.
The Russians have crossed the crest
of the Beskids az Gummenoe, and ap-
parently have clear road 70 the plains
of Hungary.
BY moving strong force along the
southern forks Of the Bcskids. the Rus
slams have converted the operations OF
separate columns invading Hungary
into a general battle, which is now Ge-
veloping across broad front, as great
masses of infantry are pressing slowly
into the Hungarian valley. During the
last eight weeks desperate but unsuc-
cessful efforts have been made by the
Germans TO force a passage into the
Stryj valley. They had 10 substitute an
entirely new attacking force three or
four times, so great were their losses
from rife fire. bayonet and suffocation
i'm the snow-coyered rayines.
The Russians are now approaching
the broad roads which converge
through the best farming land Of Hum
gary. Great rcinforcements, however,
both Austrian and German, are filing
the prepared defensive positions. Large
numbers Of forts have been thrown up
TO protect the southern roads. The
present battle extends for nearly =
hundred miles, practically due east and
west.

TO THE HOUSEWIFE

Madam, if your husband is like
most men he expects you to look after
the health Of yourself and children.
Coughs and colds are the most COM
mon of the minor ailments and are
most likely to lead to serious diseas-
es. A child is much more likely to
contract diphtheria or scarlet fever
when it has cold. If you will in
quire into the merits of the various
remedies that are recommended for
coughs and colds, you will find that
Chamberlain's cough remedy stands
high in the estimation of the people
who use it. It is prompt and effectu-
al, pleasant and safe to take, which
are qualities especially to be desired
when medicine is intended for chill
dren. For sale by all dealers. (Adv.)

Knowing full well that the opposition
would, if possible, prevent the pas
sage of every measure proposed and
recommended by our Governor for the
welfare of this Commonwealth, as has
been evidenced by their refusal to sup
port Legislative propositions and
block their passage, and then, when
asked to propose and submit propo-
sitions for the good of the people,
which they would support, fatty and
openly refused TO even suggest a
course pertaining to the enactment of
needed legislation. Honor to our
staunch and ever-alert lawmakers,
who, awake to the needs Of the hour,
leave at once the by-ways of prof
legacy and discussion and return to
themselves and bethink that they've
for the moment, allowed impulse and
purposely engendered division to
attempt to grasp from them their
golden opportunity to make hay
while the sun Shines" Now, during
the few remaining days of the session
those determined sages will turn out
number of good Democratic meas
ures that will bring honor to the
Democracy of Missouri and result in
unreasonable good to the common
people.

Mckinney candidate for Mayor of
the City of Pennington. Mr.. Nc
Kinney was petitioned and prevailed
upon to allow his name used for this
position to which he has consented,
owing to the general demand of the
citizenship. We think a better man
could not have been named and be-
lieve that in this man all interests
have found an unbiased, staunch and

Governor Major has positively an
nounced that he will not, under any
circumstances, reconvene the General
Assembly in special session. So our
Democratic Solons have only few
days more in which to pass all needed
legislation, and, in view CT the Gov
ernor's determination not to call a
special session of the Legislature, the
Democratic majority have put their
heads together for the common good
and are now making rapid strides in
putting through all the wise and equi-
table Democratic bills, regardless of
an attempt Of the Republican minority
to block the passage of all laws for
the good of the people. There have
been proposed and injected bills of a
sectional and fractional nature for the
sole purpose of bringing out heated
discussions that would prevent and
retard the discussion and enactment
of measures that would inure to the
public welfare and rebound to the
honors and laurels Of Democratic
Legislature. But our leaders are too
wise and have the welfare of their
constituents too much at heart to be
trifled with in this way too long,

In the year 1899 two travelling sales
men, John Nicholson of GAINESVILLE,
Wisconsin, and Samuel Hill of Beloit,
the same state, were compelled to oc-
cupy the same room in crowded no
tel in Chicago. They were total
strangers to each other having never
met before. Both of them We're
Christian men. Before retiring they
read their Bibles and committed them
selves for the night in silent prayer,
to Gods watch-care. BY this each
discovered the other to be Christian.
This was an epochal night in the re-
ligious history of the American COM
mercial traveller. For these two men
after talking and praying, and pray
ing and talking, decided to originate
an organization by which Christian
travelling men could easily recognize
each other. The result was the or
ganization of the "Gideons." A Chris
tan fraternity that has grown until
it now numbers a million. 1t has been
instrumental in closing a large num-
Der of saloon bars in as many hotels,
starting revivals, and rescuing a
great many men from sin. Their last
immense, though highly commendable
undertaking, the placing of Bible in
every room of every hotel in the
United States, is being rapidly con-
sumated. The "Gideons" have be-
come a mighty factor in the Y. M.
C. AS, Epworth Leagues, Christian
Endeavors, prayer meetings, Sunday
schools and other religious meetings
of the land.

The three missionaries Of the For
eign Christian Missionary Society,
stationed in Nantungchow China, nave
a great opportunity to cooperate with
Chang Chen, president of Yuan Shi
Kai's cabinet, and one of the greatest
men of China. He has his great mills
there and is making Nantungchow
and district a model for China. He
has opened schools in the city, village,
and country, in the temples, setting
the idols in the alcoves at the side
and using the main part for modern
schools. To train teachers he has
built with his own money normal
school for 480 men, and one for 300
women, and is trying to train leaders
for this great work as best he can.
He has asked the mission to help him
and has presented them with the fin
est piece of land in the city for their
own school. He has built a hospital
and has asked them to provide direc-
ton for it through medical man.
He has built an orphanage, which has
500 boys and girls in it, and has ask
ed that one of the missionaries take
full charge while he supports it, and
has said that he would be glad to have
Christianity taught in it. He has
built great museum, an agricultural
school, and hotel to accommodate an
occasional foreigner who comes.

The Yonug Mems Christian Asso-
citation is proving a mighty power for
good among the armies of Europe.
1t is the testimony of the British

British Empire has gained SO much
in public esteem during the course of
the war as the Y. M. C. A. Before
the war it was thought in England
that the association was conducted
on a somewhat narrow basis, and
that its membership was limited to
men of certain religious views. "But,"
says the weekly" at is not too much
to say that the management of the Y.

evidence. Everywhere it is efficient.
Everywhere it commands the highest

We made a superficial inspection Of
one of our home industries few days
ago and ascertained that it was not
receiving its just quota of patronage
that is, it is not getting all the bus
mess in its class, which is its just
quota, and the management, no doubt,
would be in position to give employ
ment to at least two or three more
persons than at present if it were get
ting all the business of our city and
community in its class.
The industry here referred to is the
Pennington Laundry, a resident and
taxpayer, an employer, a citizen and
competent workman of our town.
Patronize home institutions if you
would see your city increase in popula-
ton of an industrious class, in wealth,
in activity, in prestige and last but
not least, in size. If a reverse condi-
ton is desired patronize foreign in
situations. A city or town increases
or decreases in all respects in the
same proportion as it's patronage of
home or foreign institutions. Re
move all the patronage and you have
no town, not even a crossroads store.
Retain all the patronage and the cross
roads store grows to village, a
town, perhaps city.

In view of the ponderous amount
of wise and long-looked-for beneficial
legislation given US by the Democratic
party, in accordance with its promis-
es in the Baltimore Platform, we can
expect nothing short of general re-
vival of business throughout the ma
ton; and this revivifying wave is
now making itself felt in most of the
great industrial and agricultural sec
lions of this country. Some people
expect the benefits of good legisla-
ton to come simultaneously with the
enactment of good laws, however,
this is not the case in legislation any
more than in any other work; but
good effects will invariably come in
due course from good laws. You
would not expect to sow a field with
wheat one day and reap the ripened
grain the next; you would not set
hen on eggs one day and expect a

you expect good laws passed one day
to produce good times the next.
1t takes long time to correct the
errors of 40 years of poor admins
tration, to unravel such volume of
complicated tariff schedules and get
them in shape so they will serve the
interests of the many instead of the
few, to squeeze the aristocracy out
of Cannonism, to make physical val
uation of the great trunk line rail
ways, for Commission to fathom
and figure out intricate commercial
relations between this and the rest of
the nations of the earth and to es-
tablish just and equitable measures
of certain relief; and then you should
allow, at least, enough time to get
the laws in full swing before expect
ing the coveted relief from 40 years
of oppression and tyranny. Don't get
impatient, watch future results. A
new broom sweeps clean, the Demo-
Gratis have hued to the line and the
chips are falling, the darkest hour is
