RUSSIANS MASSED
 IN FINAL EFFORT
 TO ROUT GERMANS

Perograd, July 31-Crossing of the Vistu1a at several points on pontoons and efforts of the Austro-German al- lies to construct bridges across the river, curiously enough, have e1icited less discussion among Russian mili- tary critics than the crossing of tthe Vieprz near Travniki or the advance of the Germans southward from Bausk which lies between Riga and Poniwesch in Kovno Province.
 Operations against Kovno naturally are regarded as interesting because of the importance attached to it as one of the strongho1ds of the pros pective new Russian line. The Ger mans, proceeding from the Scouth west, have reached the advanced po- sitions of Kovno and also are push ing northward from SuwaIki.
 Meanwhile, the Russians are de- lending ga1lantIy their positions. on the Narew. between the Vistula, and the Vieprz on the Bug. They claim notable successes in the sector Chnaiel Piaski where they caused their antag- onists heavy losses and took 1000 Austrian prisoners in the Sokal re- zion.
 One of the most brilliant minor ac- tions of the war in this theatre was the capture of an Austrian aeroplane on the 28th by Lieutenant Pokrovski Cornet P1onslzi, east of the z1ota Lipa river. Firing constantly at the Aus trian aviator from a higher altitude, they forced him to descend The Rus sian machine followed and the Aus trian lieItenant surrendered with a non-commissioned officer. The Aus trian aerop1ane, which was not dam aged, was a new machine of the 12o horsepower type.

Gen. Stuart W Wortley, Famous British Army
 Officer, 58 Today

Maj the Hon Edward James Montaugu 4Stuart-W ort1ey. one of the most distinguished of British army officers and military experts, was born f1fty-eights years ago today. The General, who was placed in com rnand of an army corps of the British expeditionarys force inFrance, had his first experience of warfare in 1879, when he serEed in the Afghan con- f1ict under Lord Roberts, He took part in the first Boer war, and then spent some years in Egypt, serving under Gen. Valentine Baker. Gen. Sir Evelyn Wood and Sir Charles Wilson. He also took part in many frontier fights in India, and held important commands in the last South African war. Gen. Stuart-KV ortIey has visited America several times, and has many friends on this side of the Atlantic. In a letter to one of his American friends the General said:
 ''In their attack onstlae Ypres sa1i- ente the8 Germans made use of as phyxiating gas. This gas is dissemf- mated both in shells and bombs and also from cylinders. which are buried in the trenches with their nozzles pushed through the parapets. The taps of the cylinders are then turned ~on and the gas, which is, as far as we know chlorine, is pumped out. The gas, which is heavier than air, and
 
 our lines, sinks into our trenches, and kills or inca pacitates any men who happen to be in them. The effect of the gas can also be felt as far back as five or six miles and produces head ache and smarting of the eyes. I have seen our men in hospitals after having been brought back from trenches where this gas has been used against them. There is no need to ask for the ward in which they are, as their groaning is quite sufficient a direction of itself. In one ward there are eighteen cases. They are all sit cling bolt upright, swaying backward and forward, gasping for breath, un- able absolutely to eat or speak. It takes two days for these men to die. During these two days they are in the most acute agony, and if by the slightest chance they. recover from the poison, they will in all probability be rendered useless for life, as the effect of the gas is to turn all the tissues of the lung into liquid. The doctors and nurses are working day and night to give them some relief, but there is nothing to be done.''

THE IRISH SOLDIERS

In the casualty lists issued by the British government names that are typically Hibernian appear with great frequency, and the va1or of the Irish has often been recognized in the dis patches and by the bestowal of med als upon the present-day heroes of the fighting "a ce. Wherever there is fighting there are usually Irishmen to be found. Many poems have cele- brated the bravery of Irishmen, but one of the most popular of these is the work of an American journalist, Joseph I. c. Clarke. He was born in Kingstown, Ireland, sixty-nine years ago today, July 31, 1846, and came to America, engaging in New York jour- nalism. in 1868. The most famous of his poems, ''The Fighting Race" is in part as follows: Read out the names!'' and Burke sat

New Zealand
 Has Given Us Many
 Sporting Celebrities

New Zealand is a considerable and watery distance from these shores, but not so far but that many of it's sons have found their way to America, and not a few of them have attained fame in sporting circles. New Zealand gave aus one of the greatest boxers of all time, Robert Fitzsirnmons, for while the freck1ed fellow was born in Eng land he spent his youth and young manhood in New Zealand, and was there instructed in the arts of horse shoeing and boxing. Dan Creedon, Billy Murphy. and several others who have been prominent in our set, were native New Zealanders, and that coun- try also gave us one of the most eminent and gifted of sporting scribes, the late William w. Naughton. This birth of Naughton, one of the most widely quoted of all American sport ing writers. He made his mundane debut in Auckland on July 31, 1854.
 New. Zealand is a great sporting and athletic center, and Naughton early imbibed the atmosphere and became proficient in many games. Boxing was his favorite pastine, but he was also noted as an oarsman, swimmer, marksman and runner. When he was sixteen years old he began his jour nalistic career as a fsdevir in the off F Tee. or the New zealand f1SrdlO- E10 was a busy lad, for he often took part in an athletic event in the morning, after which he hurried back to the office and wrote an account of the af- fair, and then put it into type.
 Naugl1ton was thirty-two when he landed in San Francisco to begin his career as an American sporting writer and editor. The invasion of America by Austra Han and New Zealand. pugi= lists was then just beginning, and Naughton gave a glad welcome to the fighters from the Antipodes. During the following years Naughton attained a foremost place among the Pacific coast sporting authorities, and his opinions were quoted and. commented on throughout the United States and Canada. Naughtop with Otto Floto and a few others stand for the old school of sporting journalism, and while the younger crop include many | brilliant men, able to do wonders with and to the English language, they lack some of the authority which was popularly vested in the old timers. Naughton had his sincere enemies, as well as a multitude of firm friends, but both alike mourned his passing when he died in San Francisco in March of last year.

Balloon Altitude Records

The first aeronauts to reach an altitude of more than six miles were Dr. Berson and Dr. Surfing, German baIloonfsts, who on July 31, 1901, fourteen years ago today, ascended from Berlin in the balloon Prussia and reached a height of 33,60O feet, which remains the worlds record. As far back as 1862 two English aeronauts, G1aishHr and Coxwell, made an ascent in which they estimated that they reached an altitude of seven miles,
 but this could not be authenticated, and it is now generally believed they fell short of six miles. One of the aeronauts, on this occasion, was rend- cred unconscious, and the other was on the verge of insensibi1ity before he began the descent. In 1875 Tissan- dier, a French aeronaut, with two companions, reached a height of more than five miles, where his companion died, and Tfssandier became uncon- scious. The use of oxygen in the rarefied higher atmosphere has made such ascents of late years less hazard ous, although the sensation is far from agreeable. The nearest ap- proach to the German record of 1901 was made two years ago by a French aeronaut, who reached an altitude of 33o74 feet or well over six miles
 The aviation record for altitude is 2o.26o feet, established last year.
