London Sept. 20.-Undiminished
confidence in high military circles that
the Russians will make a successful
retreat from Wilma is reported by the
PetrOgrad correspondent of the Times.
The Germans, he said, are making
most desperate efforts to bag some Of
the remaining Russian armies before
the withdrawal is completed, but the
heaviest transport trains and impedi-
ment are already beyond the danger
zone and there is hope that the Rus
sian forces will eXtricate themselves.
1t is important to bear in mind, the
correspondent wires, that many
meshes in the German net are COM
posed not of infantry but of compar-
atiVely weak cavalry units which will
be Swamped unless quickly Withdrawn.
Viewing the situation in the north
ern sector of operations as whole,
the correspondent says: 1t is note
worthy that German cavalry seized
and cut the Vilna-Dvinsk line on the
18th, but though whole week
elapsed. we are still awaiting de-
cision and though communications are
cut to the Wilma group of forces the

Harry soldiers disease. The slave Of
Jealousy never has peace. AS sin and
disobedlence developed in HIS life Saul,
became subject to fits Of insane rage
during one OF which, as David played
upon his harp and endeavored to quiet
the monarch's spirit, he hurled q

that David was divfnely protected and

not keep his grief and rage to himself
for Jonathan and the nation alike

II. Saul and Jonathan, w. 81. It
took courage and self.sacriflce on
Jonathan's part to speak on behalf Of
David. Prudence and principle are
combined in Jonathan's plea. Those
who envy include in their hate and
anger all who speak kindly in behalf
Of their enemy. But Jonathan's argu-
ment (vv. 4, 81 is unanswerable.
David had not stnned against Saul; it
was Jehovah who wrought a great
salvation for all Israel" on the day
David took his life in his hand and
,overcame Goliath. Jonathan pleads for
God as well as for his friend. He
called to saul's memory his former
Joy at seeing Jehoyah's victory

Saul was persuaded ". g. and made
another OF those impetuous promises
which proved SO tieeting. Ushered by
Jonathan Matt. $50 David returned
to saul's presence, entered once more
upon the discharge Of his duties and
desiated only when he saw that his
presence only aggravated the king and
! that he was useIessly exposing his life
in sauIs presence. David was faith
full to GOD and to Gods anointed king.
