The German attacks on the
French lines have shifted to the
two Champagne and Lorraine
sectors, where in the latter, ac-
cording to French official
statement this morning two at
tacks were repulsed west of
Fleury. The French in coun-
ter attack made some progress,
taking a quantity of war ma
terial.
For the first time, since
bringing them to the western
front, the Russians engaged the
Germans in trench fighting in
Champagne, causing heavy
losses to the latter.
On the Verdun front Sunday
night was one Of comparative
quiet.
A large contingent of Rus
sian troops arrived at Brest,
France, today, but their even
tual destination is withheld.
A report from the British
headquarters says the British
captured a German trench in
the neighborhood of Pozieres.
The withdrawal of the Ger
man troops under General Won
Linsingen, southwest, of Lobek
to a point behind the River Lipa
is officially announced from
Berlin today.
The German second line po-
sitions northwest of Nazentine
lie Petit Wow have been cap
tured by the British in a stormy
attack, London announces.
The strongly held positions
east of Longueval have also
been captured by the British,
who took the remaining posi-
tions in Ovillers and Laboisselle
villages.
Berlin says an artillery bonn
bardment of intense violence is
progressing from the Somme
district north to the sea where
the German lines are being
heavily pounded.

CROWD
ATTENDED TIE
MILO PICNIC
GOOD ROADS MEETING AND CAN
DIDATES is LARGELY ATTEND
ED AND A GREAT DEAL OF EN-
THUSIASM WAS DEVELOPED.

There was a rousing good roads
meeting and candidates rally at the
grove one mile of Milo Saturday, at
tended by nearly every citizen of that
section of the county in which a
great deal of enthusiasm for good
roads was developed. County attOr-
ney A. j. Hardy, who delivered good
roads speech which was listened to
with marked attention by all. Thurs
day and Friday have been designated
as road working days in every pre-
cinct in the county and on those
dates every man in the county is ex-
pected to contribute two days labor
or hire some one in his place. The
county commissioners have instruc-
ted every road overseer to report at
certain places in each district with
all the tools available and urged the
citizens to cooperate heartily with
them in order to make roads pdssible
for the fall trade.
1t is the ultimate desire of the
county commissioners and all the
business men of this county that a
bond issue be made for the purpose
of building permanent roads all over
the county, but pending that issue
it is necessary that some temporary
repairs be made on some of the roads
in the county.
The people of the Milo community
propose to. make it the banner dis
trict in the county during the two
days work, that was in evidence
Saturday when they approved the
plan adopted. by the county commits
sioners and the business men of the
city to put these highways in repair.

MOVEMENT Of
STATE TROOPS
TOBE DELAYED
WAR DEPARTMENT ORDERS SOL
DIERS HELD Ar MOBILIZATION
CAMPS UNTIL PROPER EQUIP
MENT is SUPPLIED.

Washington, July 16.-The war de
partment commanders to delay trans
portation to the border of national
guard organizations now mobilizing
until they are thoroughly equipped
and organized. The effect will be to
revoke a ruling issued when the
Mexican situation was acute, waving
certain requirements. The order af-
fects about twenty-five thousand men
still held in camps. The latest infor-
nation of the department is that
about one hundred thousand guards
men are now at the border.
Published reports that use of a gen
eral draft was being considered to
fill the national guard ranks were de-
MED officially tonight as nonsense.
Reports that national guard units
are being supplied poor and insuffici-
ent food are not borne out in prelim-
mary telegraphic reports received
IRON all the department commanders
today. These accounts uniformly de
clare that there has been no food
shortage among the guardsmen, and
that all have been supplied normal
army ration of good quality.
A message from General Funston
today reported that General Trevino
had sent many troops south with the
intention of occupying the Gurrero-
San Borja-Santa Rosalia line against
any possible northward advance of
the bandits. The dispatch added that
newspapers on the Chihuahua side
were urging the necessity of an ac-
tive campaign against bandits, ito
prevent their reaching United States
forces and the border

BOND ISSUE
IS Absorbing
TOPIC NOW
BUSINESS MEN ARE SEEING THE
NECESSITY OF HAVING SEW
ERS AND WATER MAINS Ex-
TENDED WITH CiTYS GROWTH

The approaching election to be
held two weeks from tomorrow to
determine whether the city will vote
bonds for the extension of the sewer
and water mains and for other i'm
provements also for the purchase of
the site and the erection of a spac-
ious convention hall is attracting
more attention as the time approach
es. /Some at the first were opposed
to voting bonds for any purpose
whatever at this time, but as the
necessity for the proposed improve
ments is shown them, opposition cea-
ses as a rule and they are willing to
assist in putting the bond deal
through
There has been ana is some oppo-
sition to voting bonds, but it is not
thought that the opposition will cut
any material figure and that the bond
issue will be authorized.
The city officials in every depart
ment are urging that this be done
in order that these Improvements
may begin as soon as possible.
They urge that the necessity is
great as the city mas already out
grown the old system and cannot ex-
pard as rapidly as it should unless
builders can secure the proper sewer
and water connections.
Ardmore has grown rapidly within
the past two years. and the scholas-
tic census today shows it to be a city
of $4,000 inhabitants. Coed houses
in desirable locations are in demand
and no sooner is one finished than a
tenant is waiting to enter it.
For this reason the city officials
are urging the bond issue in order
that the city may grow and develop
in keeping with the times.
