from the far West to cross the silent
spaces of the world and speak to

world"

BRITISH CAPTURE DOCUMENT
PREPARED BY. TEUTONIC
CORPS COMMANDER.

War Correspondents Headquar-
tiers in France.-Germany is short
of guns, aeroplanes and war mater
ial of all sorts, but not Of food, &C
cording to a most sensationally in
teresting document the British have
captured, which is called "The ex-
perience of the Fourth German
Corps in the Battle of the Somme."
The document starts out by pay
ing a tribute to the British infantry,
(which has undoubtedly learned
much since last autum's offensive.
It shows great dash in attack. The
Englishman also has physique and
training in his favor. One must &C
knowledge the skill of the English in
rapidly consolidating captured posi-
tions and their great tenacity in the
defense of them"
Explicit instructions are given in
the document to the artillery to
change their methods of placing
batteries behind villages and behind
steep slopes, because of the British
methods of distribution of their ar
tillery fire, which prodigally search
es all obvious shelters. Owing to the
terrific concentration Of the British
artillery fire, says, the document,
front line trenches should be thinly
held and dependence placed on small
groups Of machine gunners. Once
the British lay curtain Of fire or
a trench, it adds, the men had better
evacuate it and lay down in the
open.
1.-THE numerical superiority Of
the British airmen and the fact thai
their machines were better made are
disagreeably apparent to MS" Gen
Won Arnim says, and he speaks o.
the surprisingly bold procedure o.
Brisish airmen, who were often abb
to fire on our troops with machine
guns by descending to within a few
hundred feet from the ground. HI
adds that the German antiaircraf
guns could not continue firing a
that height without exposing thei
own troops by the serious danger o
shell fragments" Before the battl
Of the Somme airmen kept at any
where from 5000 to $4,000 feet owe
the lines on account Of antiaircraf
gunfire.

cLoRIA's ROMANCE

gowned with the sort of frocks, hats
shoes and lingerie that Miss Billie
Burke is to wear in "Gloria's Ro-

novel from the pen Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Rupert Hughes, which Manager
Harry Davis Of the New Theater has
booked, and the first chapter OF
which will be seen on the screen

In stageland Miss Burke is famous
for the wonderful gowns that have
graced her person, each season seem
ing to have found her with more
gorgeous array than the preceding
one, but during the course Of the
new animated novel she is going to
wear costume especially designed
for her by Henri Bends, Lucille and
Balloon, that will outshine any
gown in which she has been seen in
the past. Dramatic critics in men,
tioning Miss Burke on the speaking
stage have worn threadbare such
adjectives as adorable" exquisite"
and sslbxely," and all Of them have
fallen far Mort Of describing this.

WILLARD IN CITY
Champions in Squared Circle and Mat
Game Pay Rock Island Visit With
SellS-FlOtO CircuS.

Tom Jones, known internationally
as a sport promoter, is in Rock Island
today Asked whether he had any
news to give out on Willard. Jones
replied that he was bubbling over with
it and only too glad for the chance to
spill some of it
Il signed articles last Sunday
for Willard to engage in his next
championship match with Fred Full
ton" Jones said Fulton has been
coming along in the last year in cy-
cl0nic fashion and now has a big fol-
lowing that figures him a sure cham
pioHship possibility"
Willard does not like the ordinary
show life but the circus life is just to
his liking. AS the representative
American cowboy Jess heads the big
parade around the ring. does a riding
show and boxes with Walter Monahan,
and gives a vivid reproduction of the
knockout over Jack Johnson, and his
victory over Moran.
A couple of weeks ago some Chicago
press agent sent the news broadcast
that Frank GOtch was through with the
mat game, and that, broken down in
health, he returned to his home in
Humboldt, Iowa, to await the early call

words, the news of his wrestling
death was grossly exaggerated" and
one look at the champion will disproye
the Chicago yarn. GotCh had pto-
maine poisoning and while he suffered
greatly it was only temporary all
ment and he responded Immediately to
treatment. Gotch is negotiating for a
match with Joe Stecher for Labor day
and Gene Melady of Omaha looks like
the successful bidder

John KilOnis, claimant to the well
terweight championship of the world,
easily disposed of Heine Engel OF Du
buque, Iowa, in wrestling match
last night at the Empire theatre, TAX
ing two straight falls, the first in %
minutes with a crotch hold and the
second in ii minutes with the same
hold. kiloniS was complete master
of the situation at all times and could
have thrown Engel sooner than he
did, but chose to give the mat fans a.
run for their money and injected much
comedy into his tactics. kilOniS would
let Engel secure dangerous holds on
him, just to show those present how
easily he could wiggle out OF them.
In both falls, when kilonis secured
his crotch holds, he would spin Engel
around like top before pinning his
shoulders to the mat.
In the preliminary Peter Metropou-
los of Clinton, Iowa, and Lagan Bat
ties of Dubuque put on so minutes of
fast wrestling to a draw Metropou-
los claims he has never been beaten.
