Europe and America

In the United States the telephone
is operated day and night. In Europe,
in cities the size of Omaha and small
Ter, it is the usual custom to close the
telephone exchanges at 8 or 9 o'clock
at night and all day Sundays and
holidays.
In the United States we can talk
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, dis
lance greater than from New York to
London. In Europe no telephone line
is longer than from Omaha to Cleve-
land, and even then if we are to Judge
by the word of those who have tried to
use the European service, it is very
unsatisfactory.
In Europe practically all the teIe-
phones are owned and operated by
the various governments.

BATTERED BY ALLIES.
Calm Optimism Pervades Ranks ol
French and English.

Paris, Oct. Concentrated hfe
from 500 French guns is battering to
pieces the massive concrete and steel
defenses forming the German heid
fort of Tahure, the key to the second
line of the Germans in Champagne.
The bombardment, continuing nlght
and day without cessation, is DelieV-
ed to be preliminary to another great
infantry assault, by which the French
hope to cut through the Kaiser's lines
in the northern section Of Champagne
thus separating the German army Iii
the Argonne, commanded by the crow"
prince, from that which holds the
western flank extending down to the
:'bloody angle" formed by the juno
ton of the Disc and Aisne rivers.
Success in this operation would
compel the retreat of one or both OF
these German armies, according to
French officers arriving from the
front. They pointed out that the re-
treat Of the crown prince would not
only relieve Verdun on the west, but
also clear the way for an attack on
the Germans main lines running
Eastern Belgium.
"This, however," said one officer, "ls
not to be reckoncd on as an immediate.
The German defenses are OF
great strength, and it is recognized
that the operations which have opened
so auspiciously cannot eliminate for
several months.
".At some points we shall have to
smother the German defenscs with
our fire, as we did before. AT others
it will be necessary to engage the en-
envy in hand-to-hand conflicts that are
certain to cause heavy losses for both"
The views OF this officer reflect the
general sentiment of the French army
The Joy resulting from the recent vic
tory is not frenzy, but rather calm
optimism that successful beginning
of terrific task augnrs well for final
triumph.

CUT UP By AFRICANS
Latter DO Terrible Havoc With
Bay0netS.

Paris, Oct. LIT was by no means
easy work" said one of the wounded
at the Grand Palais Hospital in des-
crihing the battle Of Champagne Sa:-
urday. "Ncver have we seen anything
like the barb wire entaglements. Our
shells ploughed up thousands of stalk
as. but there was an inumcrable num-
ber left which we had to pull up under
the cncmy's fire. The wire was so
thick it was extremely hard to cut,
In many places our attacking columns
came against cheveauX-de-prise. be-
hind which the Germans lurked. We
pelted them with bombs as hard as
we could and the sappers who came
behind us did .he rest.
"Thc machine guns which stormcG
at us-that's why so many Of Us were
hit in the legs. were soon put out OF
business. Then our cavalry turned up.
They had gone so long without a
charge to fight on horseback that they
were keen 10 get into it. 1t was fine
dash and the Germans bolted on all
sides What they left behind in, the
way Of material. arms, effects ard
equipment was unimaginable. Their
flight turned into a panic when they
saw our African contingents after
them. The Africans certainly. cut them
up frightfully with the bayonet.'
An officer with a bayonet wound
in one arm spoke enthusiastically of
the methodical and orderly manner in
which the French infantry fought.
When the rally sounded, all the men
formed in their proper sections.
"They all are veterans now" said
the Officer, ''and know their profes-

SEVENTHIIDAY
OF ALLIES DRIVE
French and English Batter
ing German Second Line
of Defense
TEUTON LOSS 100000
Operations of Allies in
The West Relieving Pressure OF
Germans on Russians.

London, Oct. l. The seventh day
# the great allied offensive on the
western front finds the allies sweep
ing closer to the Vimy heights and
to the Bazancourt-C -Challerange rail
way, the objective of the French arm
les in the Champagne.
Since the first rush of last Satur-
day, the Germans have lost more than
100000 men in killed, wounded, and
prisoners, according to estimates OF
correspondents at the front. No ac-
curate estimates of the losses suffer-
ed by the allies is obtainable at this
time, though the Berlin newspapers
report that the allies have suffered
heavily, specially in the fighting
around Loos.
Though the most severe fighting Is
now believed to be going on west oil
Vimy and west and southwest of Lens
the most impressive gains save been
made by the French in the Cham
pagne.
Paris dispatches today assert that
the French left is now within two
miles of the BaZanccurt-C Challerange
railway and that French gunners have
rendered the railroad useless to the
Germans by steady streams of shells.
The French right is rushing north
ward toward the highway crossing at
Ccrnay, battling against the most
stubborn enemy resistance.
London, Oct. While the Anglo
French troops in Artois apparently
are now simply engaged in consoida-
ting the ground won and opposing
the German counter-attacks, the bat
tie for the German second line of de-
fense in Champagne-the collapse Of
which would acutely menace the
greater part of the German position
in the VESTS proceeding with the
greatest stubbornness.
At several points the French troops
have gained footing in the second
line, and some of them even went
;; right through, but encountering Ger
man reserves were unable to maintain
theii. progress. According to the Ger
I man account these latter troops were
captured or exterminated.
The Germans, however. admit the
loss of Hill 191, to the north of Mas
sigcs, where the French are not far
from the railway triangle, the posses
sion of which has been of the great
est advantage to the Germans, as one
Of the lines has been used for supply
ing the Argonne army.
1t is believed here that besides the
gain of ground both in Artois and
Champagne. and the improved posi-
ton of the Allies generally, the recent
successful operations must soon re-
, lieve the pressure on Russia and per-
haps prevent the Austro- Germans
from sending any large force against
Serbia.
Already large reinforccments for
the Germans are arriving on the west
ern front and their presence has al
ready had the effect of slackenirg
somewhat the Allies offensive. But
there is possibility of the offensive
breaking out on some other section of
this front. In fact, the correspondent
of the Koelnische Ze'tung at Ger
man Headquarters announces that an
attack was made east Of Auberville
which he says was repulsed.
