The first cooperative packing plant
will soon be erected in Louisiana. It
will probably be built at Napoleon
vile, and, although it will cost be-
tween thirty and forty thousand dol
lars, it will be a model in every way.
The territory the enterprise is design
ed to cover is along the Southern Pa
ciic and Texas and Pacific railroads,
between the Mississippi River and
Bayou Lafourche, and for that reason
Napoleonyille is favored, as it is reach
ed by both lines and is accessible by
road as well.

TODAY'S WAR SUMMARY

Mile by mile the Austro-Germans are
pushing the Russians back from the cid
fighting ground about Warsaw, making
meanwhile the common effort to entrap or
erush the armies of Grand Duke Nicholas
before they have a chance to make good
their retreat to their new defensive posi-
tions
/ Particularly successful operations looking
Ito this end are reported by Vienna, where
the claim is made that Arch Duke Joseph
Ferdinands army has forced the Russians
IN disorder across the Nieprz near Lubar-
tov and southwest of Miechow.
Unofficial adviees from Austrian head
Iquarters indicate that a split in the Rus
sian lines caused by these operations may
spell danger to the forces thus divided.
The probability that troops retiring from
the vicinity OF Ivangorod will protect the
/ line of retreat IS suggested
Military observers in London express the
opinion that the entrapping attempt will
fail, gathering from the official report in
dications that the Russians may now be
expected to reach their new line safely.
The latest official reports from Rome re-
count activity by the Italian mountain
TROOPS, resulting in gains.
In Cadore the Austrians have been forced
back as far as the south slope of BurgstalI

A FAKE BICYCLE RACE.
Whereby 112 Belgians Escaped into
Holland.

LONDON, July 9. How 112 Bel
oians escaped into Holland through q
eleverly faxed bicycle race is told IN
dispatches from the frontier to AE-
sterdam A number Of Liege sportsmon
called on the German commandant OF
that district fortnight ago, and asked
permission to organize a bicycle race
for the benefit of local war victims. Thv
race was to be from Liege to Mouland
on the Dutch frontier.
The commandant fell in with the
plan, only stipulating that each contest
ant must wear an arm badge with tht
German colors and affix q small Ger
man flag to his bicycle. After some
demur, the promoters of the race con
sented to the conditions. The com
mandant supplied the badges and flag
himself, and agreed to send a military
| band to the starting place.
| The race took place some days later
with 112 contestants. The entire coun
tlyside turned out to watch the evcnS
and the German sentrics all along tht
road saluted the racers as they pedale,
by. But the cyclists did not sto2 uhei
they reached Mouland; they continue,

MARE BROKE LEG IN
RUNAWAY ACCIDENT
Fell Into Meadow Brook Where Bridge
Had Partially Collapsed-Rig Own
ed by W. L. Walker.

\ black mare owned by Warren L.
Walker of West Brattleboro, road COM
missioner and liveryman, that had been
hired yesterday afternoon by Perley
Plant Of West Brattleboro. ran away
last evening about O clock and was
so badly injured, one Of her forelegs
being broken three times, that she was
shot. Fred Wilder put her out of her
misery with bullet from his rifle.
The young man says that the horse
got away while he was near the school
house in district No beyond West
Brattleboro. The animal ran over the
hill past the LeRay farm and when
she came to the bridge on the Meadow
Brook road which partially collapsed
in the freshet last week, she could not
stop and tried to clear the heavy plank
that had been placed across the road
with a lantern on it. She tripped and
fell over it, her hind legs holding her
suspended.
Those who heard the crash and were
quickly on the scene saw that the ami
NAL was badly hurt. They cleared the
carriage from her and she dropped in
to the brook but was hauled 10 shore
and held there until she could be kill
ed.
No one was injured in the accident
but the carriage was somewhat dam
aged. Mr.. Waller says the horse was
worth more than $780,

LOOKS TO EAST
FOR SETTLEMENT
Germany Believes Operations There Will Cause
End of War-Makes Further Efforts to Secure
Bulgaria said Suburb of Warsaw Falls French
Report Fierce Fighting

LONDON, August Q. - Russia having
rejected what in England is regarded
as "a bona fde proposal made by the
German emperor for peace, with part
of Poland traded for Galicia, the great
struggle in the east must continue and
as there is no indication of an immc-
diate general offensive by either side
in the west the struggle of the Russian
forces TO shake themselves free of the
Austro-Gcrman grip remains the chief
factor in the war news with added in
tcrcst in the Dardanelles operation.
The GallipoH field will be closely
watched because of its possible bear
ing on the Balkan situation, again
simmeriug by reason of the renewed
quadruple entente pressure on Bulgaria
and Greece.
1t is increasingly manifest that Ger
many looks to the east for a settle
mcnt of the war.
BY ovcrrunning Serbia she would oc
eupy very favorable strategic posi-
tion to invoke Bulgaria s passive OF
active aid in reaching ConstantinoplC
along the main line.
