QUARTZ STRIKE MADE
 ON WILLOW CREEK,

Development work on property owned by Byron Bartholf and Chas Bartholf. in the Willow creek gold camp. has revealed what is consid cred the biggest showing thus far located in that district. The prop erty was located last fall, but the only evidence of the existence of a vein lay in the large amount of rich float scattered about Some weeks ago the owners were digging around and struck the vein in place. Subsequent developments showed the vein. or that part Of it thus far eN posed, to be from six to ten feet in width. The lowest assay of the several samples taken of the vein matter, gave $60 to the ton in gold Other assays run all the way from s60 to $500 per ton. while a picked specimen ran $4,000 per ton The big strike adjoins the property of the Independence Mining company and Is on Fshhook creek.

The Austrian war office has issued 1 Russo Roumanian forces have been decisively defeated by the Austrians south of HatZeg, in Pennsylvania. It is also reported that the Austrians have recaptured the town of petro- seny and Szuduk pass, in the Tran sylvanian Alps.
 A Paris dispatch tells of fierce fighting between PrieZ farm and Bouchayen. on the western front The Germans were on the offensive and finally succeeded in gaining a foothold in the French trenches at Bouchaven, but were later driven out by French counter attack, at the point of the bayonet.
 Berlin dispatches assert that the Anglo French offensive started sever al months ago has been practically a failure. For during all of the fighting only 150 square kilometres of territory formerly held in Bel gium and northern France has been taken from the Germans. It Is also asserted that during the past sev- eral days fighting the allies have lost 350,000 men in the Somme dis trict. Of this number. 150.000 were lost by the British. according to the reports.
 A strong attack by the Bulgarians resulted in pushing the Italian ad vance posts back, according to the report of the Italian war office on the activities on the Macedonian front. The report states that the fighting northeast of Saloniki was very heavy. The Italian retreat was made in good order. says the report and the setback is but a temporary one, and will not seriously delay the progress of the Italian advance in Macedonia.
 The German war office announces that the Turks have defeated the Russians on the front extending from Halicz to Brzezany after a battle which lasted for 4S hours. The Turks not only drove the Rus sians back, but succeeded in captur ing 600 unwounded prisoners.

 A Bucharest dispatch asserts that the Russo-Roumanian troops have gained a victory over the Teutons on the Dobritch front. This state ment is officially denied in Berlin, the German war office announcing the continued victorious advance of General von Mackensen.
