MAY SAVE WARSAW IS
THE INDICATION NOW
Slowing up Of the German Forces Be-
lieved to Signify a Shortage
of Ammunition.

London, Aug. 4.---The stubborn re-
sistance which the Russians are Of
fering to the Austro-tiermans and the
sIowness with which the forces of the
invaders have been able to move the
last few days has led to the belief in
some quarters that the German sup
ply of ammunition is beginning to feel
the effect OF the protr9cted struggle
and that Russia may yet save the Pol
ish capital
Previous experience with German
tactics, however, has been that tenn
porary slowing down was followed
soon by greater Efforts, and when
Field Marshal Won Mackensen has
concluded his present operations in
the southeast, Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg; it is expected will renew
his heavy blows on the Narew front.
Washington, D. Cs Aug. 4.-Great
Britain's replies 10 the latest Amer
lean representations against interfer-
ences with neutral commerce reject
entirely the contention that the order
in council are illegal and justify the
British course as being wholly within
international law.
"IJnsastainable, either in point of
law or upon PRINCIPLES of interna-
final equity is the British reply to
the American protest against the
blockade Of neutral ports, with an in
vitation to submit international ar
bitration any cases in which the
United States is dissatisfied with the
action of British prize courts.
Washington, D. c., Aug. 4.-Prompt
and determined action for the restor-
alton of peace in Mexico is to be
taken by the Washington administra-
ton, cooperating with Central and
South American Governments, it was
learned here last night, although de-
tails Of President Wilson's plan for
ending the strife in the Southern Re-
public had not been given out.
Asheville, N, G., Aug. 4.-The pre-
diction that Russia. Germany, Japan
and China would some time be array
ed in arms against the United States,
and that this country could not look
for aid from England or, under con-
ditions like these at present, from
South American Powers, was made
last night in an address by Senator
James Hamilton Lewis of Illinois be-
| fore the State Bar Association Of
North Carolina.

GOAT RANKS AS ARISTOCRAT
Always spotIess, the Animal Figures
In Strong Contrast With Sheep
on Australian Ranges.

Out on the Australian ranges among
the dirty gray pillows of sheep fleece
the snowy forms Of the Angora goats
show up like beacon lights, for they
are always spotless. They are cool
and easy-mannered, and seemingly
hold their wool-bearing companions
somewhat in disdain.
When overcrowded in press in the
pen they will perch on the backs of
the sheep or step over them to a more
airy point of vantage, the top Of the
fence by preference.
The hours never hang heavily on
the hands Of a goat. Seemingly re-
quiring but little grass nourishment
as compared with the sheep, they find
much leisure, which they spend in In
citing to wonder or in stirring up strife
and mischief.
AS with the salt-seeking cow, few
things, provided they are novelties.
come amiss to their palate. A healthy
Angora will quit the most succulent
heritage any time for a felt hat or a
pocket edition Of Shakespeare, and
then proceed to hunt for q tin can for
further sustenance.
