FIGHTING CONTINUES AROUND
VERDUN.

Fighting of great violence continues
at Douaumont in the Verdun region,
the British War Office announced
Sunday night. The Germans made a
heavy attack against the French front
along the line from the Haudremont
wood to Douaumont fort. This as
sault, the statement says, was re-
pulsed.
French artillery officers who took
part in the battle of verdun estimate
that during the first four days Of the
struggle the Germans discharged q
100000 shells, most of them of heavy
caliber. The number of projectiles
fired by the French probably was as
great Nothing like such an expendi-
ture of munitions has been known be-
fore, even in the Champagne attack.
The whole theory of operations was to
pulverize defenses at long range, drive
out OF kill defenders and then occupy
the ground by massed rushes of in
fantry.

INCREASED VOTE
Found That Percent Of Loss Among
DISTINGUISHED Voters In Adams
County (O.) Is Very Small.

After close examination statement Is
made that there will be but slight
shrinkage in the number of votes from
the number DISTINGUISHED in Adams
county in the elections to be held this
year. The word had gone out that of
the 1900 who were DISTINGUISHED by
Judge Blair, probably half Of them
had removed from the county or had
died. The investigation that has now
been made brings to light that the only
material loss has been created by
death The belief prevails that Adj
ans county will cast 100 more votes
in the coming election than in the last
election. This discovery has been the
cause for Quickened interest being
found at every hand, that correct tab.
ulation may be kept by those who will
look after the affairs of the dominant
parties.

this road is cut up by the heavy loads
