Allies Confident

If the Russian positions were really
dangerous, these authorities say, the
allies would long ago have taken the
offensive in the west to relieve the pres
sM on the eastern front. 1t is true
that the French have been attacking
and the district north Of Arras, have
In some cases been successful in
gaining ground. but the British are
remaining quiet and it can hardly be
| said that a general offensive in the
west has begun. The French are con-
sidered to have been successful in
what they have undertaken. North of
Arras. they have gained additional
ground and north of the Aisne have
repulsed four German counter-attacks
and extended their previous gains.
Germans Repuise Attacks
On the other hand, the Germans
claim to have repulsed some Of the
French attacks north OF Arras and to
the north Of scissors, the scene Of the
Germans's last important victory In
the West.
The British report all quiet on their
front To the Zeppelin brought down
yesterday by sub-Lieut. Warneford, for
which he today was awarded the Vic
toria Cross. they claim to have added
two German aeroplanes as an offset
TO the destruction reported by the Ger
mans of an allied aeroplane near
Douai.
Italian Operations
The operations on the Italo- Austrian
frontiers are pretty we'll screened by
the censorship. There are indications,
however, that big battle is imminent,
If it has not already begun, along the
Izonso river, where the Italians ap-
parently have decided to launch their
principal attack. The Italian cavalry
have already crossed the river at one
point, and it was reported from &C.
neva today, although there is no con-
firmation, that they have pierced the
Austrian line.
On GaIlipoli
There are also reports that the allies
have again taken the offensive on the
Gallipoli peninsula and have decisive

wise lacks confirmation.

President Wilson's Acceptance
The Presidents letter to Mr.. Bryan was as follows:
my Dear Mr. Bryan: =
Il accept your resignation only because you insist
upon its acceptance and accept it with much more
than deep regret with feeling of personal sorrow.
Our two of close association have been very de-

separated in the object we seek but only in the
method by which we seek it.
1T is for these reasons my feeling about your re-

deeper than regret l sincerely deplore it. Our OBJ

The point of many of the new
models seems to be points" Many
of the tailored gowns and almost all
of the gowns for formal wear run
riotously to points.
This triangular effect is used with
marked success by Nine. Reichert of
the Fashion Art League of America
in an evening gown of yellow pussy
willow taffeta. The overskirt slopes
off from the sides to sharp points in
front, the little lace apron is pointed
and the lace sleeves fall in points
over the shoulders.
The frayed ruching so much used
this season is applied. very prettily
to this frock, the rings of ruching on
the overskirt being especially effec-
tive.

Intensely excited Wang Fo. He led
him. to the Chinese quarter of the
city, and through sinuous and mys-
ferrous passages into what seemed to
be secret lodge room.
There, on a dais, surrounded by
Chinese women, was Flora. She was
supremely centented, for they had
given her all kinds of quaint tops and
seemed only bent on entertaining her.
Wang Fo told his story. The child
had been brought to some avaricious
friends of his to hide or ship to some
other city as the order might come.
He, Wang Fo, had discovered the gol-
den bantam pin. He had removed
the child into the charge of more
trusty friends. He had guessed much.
