Of THE RUSSIANS

Pozaires village on the Somme front
where desperate battle has waged
during the past few days, is now com
pletely in British hands, according to
the London war office. This source OF
information declares today that Brit
ish troops have advanced to the west
of the village, taking two strong Ger
man trenches and a number of pris-
orers.
The Turks have evacuated Erzingen,
the strongly fortified town in central
Armenia on which Russian columns
have been steadily advancing, accord
ing to a Petrograd despatch received
ir London from Rome.
Turkish troops have been sent into
Galicia to aid the Teutons against the
advancing Russians there, according 10
Berlin dispatches today.
The Austro-Hungarian general staff
has issued a statement which says the
Russians during their drive in Buko
wilma and Galicia took only about a
hundred thousand prisoners, instead of
the two hundred and siXty-six thous-
and claimed in Petrograd versions Of
the fighting. The general staff state
ment declares that the total number of
Austro-Hungarian troops in the sec
tor referred to at the beginning of the

The Russians today continued their
successful drive in southern Volyhnia,
the Slave reporting the driving back
OF the Teutons near Slonevka river, a
branch of the Styr, which the Russians
have already crossed. The Teutoni,
losses in this sector today are reported
as unusually heavy.
Apparently in an effort to lessen the
force of the Russian drive to the south
by compelling a transfer of troops to
the northern end of the line, the Ger
mans under Field Marshal Won Hinden-
berg, last night attacked the Russians
near Kammern, twenty miles west of
Riga. A spirited night battle was
fought, but the object of the attack was
lot attained, the Germans being forced
to retreat after sustaining heavy losses.
Petrograd dispatches annouce the
apture of Erzington, Turkish Armenia,
by Russian troops commanded by the
Grand Duke Nicholas early today.
French authorities reported a night
Of calm along practically the whole o.

occupation Of which was claimed in
British dispatches earlier during the
day.

TAXRETURNS ARE
GAINS OVER THE
PAST IN SUMTER

Tax Receiver John t. Howell ana
his assistant, T. B. scrutchens, have
completed the tax digest for Sumter
county for 1916, and the figures pre-
sent an interesting study for the peo-
pie.
The increase in taxes returned is
$S709S. This compares as $780,, ,510
foi 1916 with $7,93O,412 for 1915.
The digest shows SO9,466 acres of
land in Sumter county with tax re-
turn valuation of s3,O74,133. The city
property is valued at $2,614,61O.
One curious feature of the digest
presents itself when it is shown that
only s1,4O0 is returned as the value os
stocks and bonds in Sumter county.
This fact presents a condition which
is being commented on freely by peJ-
pie of the county.
The notes and accounts returned for
taxation is $279,6S1. The merchandise
return is $545,075. The value OF auto
mobiles is sS4,S22. The value of stock,
mules, cattle and hogs amounts to

At CAMP HARRIS

CAMP HARRIS, Macon, Ca, July rs.
Day." Saturday, August 5,
is to be observed in Macon, when the
entire military force encamped at
Camp Harris will appear on dress pa
rade through the business portion of
the city, Gen. Walter A. Harris hav-
ing given his consent for local business
men to go ahead with their plans for

Arrangements will be made with the
railroads to run excursions into Macon

enough SO that everybody who desires
to do so can come. During the past
week or two several excursions have
bene run and each one has brought
several hundred visitors to see the

thought there will be any trouble about
arranging for the excursions on Aug
ust 5th.
Gen. Harris stated that the parade
will not be held until 5 O'Clock in the
afternoon, in order to avoid as much
as possible, the heat. Under this ar
rangement it will be necessary for the
railroads to hold the excursion trains
until about o'clock in the evening.

Prairie Grass Fire.

Guthrie, Okla, March 21.-The
grass fires which had been raging over
a large part of Springvale township
since Saturday were subdued Monday
night At times nearly every man in
that section of Logan county was
fighting the fire and it required heroic
work to save many of the fine farm
houses in the path of the sweeping
flames. Many small out buildings
were destroyed, and great amount of
baled alfalfa hay was burned. In
many sections of the prairie grass was
unusually rank and as dry as powder
1t proved to be the worst grass fire
which has occurred in Logan county

PROFITS IN GAS

The county attorney of Muskogee
county alleges that the gas company
in that city is making a dividend of
twenty per cent and has applied to
the corporation commission to have
the rates reduced. The corporation
commission will doubtless look close
ly into the question before it reduces
the price. Gas companies have to be
continually extending their lines from
one gas field to another and when they
are operating field they must make
more than an ordinary return ON their
investment for the reason that an
other big investment is always Just
ahead of a gas company. The local
company has extended its line from
Oil City to Healdton and it looks now
like another extension must be made
this year to Fox or the people will be
without gas next winter. The gas COM
pany which follows from one field to
another with gas line, must make
good returns on its investment, or it
cannot build extensions when they
are required.
