timent was typical of the way many
of the Democrats feel about it. They
would be the very last persons on
earth to admit that what the Oyster
Bay statesman thought or did, had the
least particle of influence on their own
action. But unconsciously they figure
the effect of the administrations at

DRIVE TURKS BACK
British Push on to Relief of
Kut-El-Amara Garrison.
Sultan'S Forces Defeated on
Their Two Main Fronts.

London. April 15.-The Turks again
have suffered crushing reverses on
their two main fronts, according to Of
fetal information received here.
West of Erzerum they are in flight
before the Russians. On the Tigris,
in Mesopotamia, they have been driven
back three miles by the army of Gen
eral Gorringe south of Kut-el-Amara
and the British are now nearing their
comrades besieged at that city.
News of the Turkish defeat in the
Caucasus was received in the form of
an official statement from Petrograd.
The Turkish stand west of Erzerum
against the forces of the Grand Duke
Nicholas has taken the form of a
counter offensive. After six days of
furious fighting. this movement has
collapsed and the Turkish defeat is de-
scribed as a rout in the Russian COM
munication.
In Mesopotamia the Tigris floods
have filled the Turkish trenches and
compelled them to thin their ranks in
order to defend a wider front AS a
result they have been severely pun
ished by the British, who have cut
through on wide front for a depth of
from one and one-half to three miles
The British relief force is now not
much more than l 5 miles from Gen
eral Townshend's beleaguered garri-
son.

the eventualities of the situation. This
was rather indicated by the comment
of Senator Stone, chairman of the for

LEAP YEAR

To understand what leap year is
you must. first remember that the
exact length of the year is the period
of time which it takes for the earth
to move through its orbit about the
sun. This is 365 days, hours, 4S
minutes, As seconds. But as it would
be extremely inconvenient to reckon
this fraction of day on every cal
endar it is omitted for certain num-
Der of years when it appears as the
extra day in year of 800 days. As
tronomers have figured that the cal
endar can be perfectly computed by
adding this extra day to all years
whose numbers are Invisible by or
400 February is then given 20 in
stead of % days., and the first of
March thus leaps over" the one adj

rode his steed through the front door
OF q store on Marietta street, and took
shelter, horse and all, beside the soda
water counter. waiting for the storm to
pass.
Other equally startling things hap
pened. Several of the topmost globes
on the electric light posts of the white
way popped with the sound of cannon.
The streetcars stopped, and there were
a few runaways. Several people got
hit pretty hard around the head and
shoulders by the hailstones, but no.
body was seriously hurt as the pellets
were never larger than good sized mar
bles. 1t was nothing like six years ago
when they fell as big as teacups, crash
ing through roofs, plateglass windows
and skylights.
