den. He Kissed Her. And the Wicked
Little Germs Laughed Gaily."
On the Right, a Microscopic Photograph
Of the Pneumoeoeei Germs, One of
the Causes of Tonsillitis.
VvTHEN this story was first started
\kf it was about a wicked little
w microbe that lodged itself in
Geraldine Farrar's costly and patrician
throat-her ~tonsils. 10 be accurate-and
caused that talented and beautiful prima
donna, who is also a recent bride, TO cut
short a concert tour that would have
Melted her several thousands OF dollars
and hurry back TO New York for treat
ment.
But no sooner was the story about the
germ begun than-"Stop!" cried a person
interested in the case. rushing precipi-
lately into the office. stop, the fright
full ravages have spread! Lou-Tellegen's
got it now. He Is down with the tonsillitis
and the theatre has got to be closed"
That. Of course. made the story much
more interesting and wider in its aspect.
Lou-Tellegen is the romantic husband Of
the beautiful Farrar. There was only one
probable way Lou-Teliegen could have
gotten the same microOe, and Thar was
by kissing his bride-a perfectly proper
and p~raiseworthy thing for him 20 DO.
An investigation proved tlat what vas
suspected had happened After a period
of five DAYS the incubation of the germ
waited on the wings Of a kiss Of the
fair Geraldine 20 her husband had waXed
mighty and the bridegroom-actor was
stricken.

tons north of the river and cleared
the bank almost to Clery. The French
who have established themselves at
Sormont also threaten Clery'
The British are still heavily en-
gagged all along their front from
Hardecourt to Gommecourt. Notwith-
standing heavy German counter at
tacks they have been able to main
tain all the ground gained and extend
it at some points.
As the German trenches are occu-
pied, evidence accumulates of the
deadly execution of artillery. In
some cases so per cent. of the de-
tenders were killed by the terrific
shelling to which they were sub
Jected. British losses vary. Certain
defenses where machine guns re-
mained unchanged, suffered heavily.
Others captured the positions which
had been set as their objective with
very slight losses.

Instead of compelling the Germans
to lessen their efforts at Verdun, the
Anglo-French offensive seems to have
increased their determination, pos
sibly in the hope of preventing the
French from sending reinforcements

press satisfaction with the progress
which has been made. With the heavy

ground to the pursuing column. To
rest their mounts the Americans from
time to time dismounted and ran. lead
ing the animals. Still they lost ground.
When the CarranZa force seemed
about to overtake his men. Lieutenant
Hickam led them off the road into q
rocI-walled depression about ten feet
deep where huge oak hid them from
view. Within three hundred yards the
MeXicans rode past without discover
ing the hidden Americans. Then the
latter at a leisurely pace, followed
their late pursuers until the hill was
reached. Here they drew up along the
crest of the canyon with deep ra-
vines protecting each flank. AT this
point they had a chance i'll case of at
tack to get their horses safely up and
over the mountain ridge overlooking
the canyon which ran upward from
the American rear. But when the
Carranza troops came back down the
canyon road they passed the foot of
the hill without a hostile move of any
sort against the Americans, whom they.
could see plainly a few hundred yards
above.
The cavalrymen believe that word
of their proximity had been taken to
the Carranza forces by the Mexican
caretaker of the mine who was equip
ped with an excellent pair of field
glasses.

The soldiers, a detachment of the
Seventh Cavalry under Lieutenant
Horace NJ. Hickam, were on a scouting

have had their rendezvous in a zinc
mine about thirty miles from the AM

they started back and had turned into

the troopers replied and the MeMcans
disappeared over the top of a ridge.

Pershing Rushes Work on

eral ]. ]. Pershing, commanding the
American expedition in Mexico, has
issued orders that every effort be
made to expedite the construction of
the new wagon road between Column
bus and the field base at Colonia
Dublan, according to reports from the
field to-day. That delays in trans
portation over the American lines of
communication may be vc a minimum
during the rainy season, he has order
ed that extra laborers be put to work
and additional machinery employed.
Reports from the field also indicated
that much construction work is under
way in the field headquarters camp.
Numbers of buildings are being erected
to house food and forage, which has
been piled in the open, in the rainy
season and corrals are under con-
struction in which the horses can be
stabbed and the cattle, purchased for
food purposes, held.

Vigorous Campaign For
Resumption of U-Boat War;
German-U. S. Relations Good

Berlin, July 6, via London. The
campaign in favor of the resumption
of a full-fledged submarine war on
commerce goes energetically forward.
IT was expected that with the adjourn
ment of the Reichstag and the dis
persal of politicians to their homes
Navy League, Publicists, Conserva-
tives and part of the National Liberals
would pass the climax and gadually
lose its intensity.
On the contrary, reports from all
sections of the country indicate that
the agitation is continuing with un-
diminished vigor both above and be-
low the surface. Never a day passes
without articles in various newspapers
to remind the people that according
to the German note, the modification
of German submarine methods merely
was temporary and contingent upon a
modification of the British blockade.
Some judges of the situation, baslng
their opinion on the extent and vigor
Of the agitation, are inclined to be-
lieve the movement will read not
later than September to a revival of
the submarine campaign on the old
lines. Recent inquiries by the Asso-
GATED Press in authoritative quarters
indicate, however that the govern
ment for the present has no intention
Of resuming the freedom OF action"
mentioned in the May note and OF pro-
volIing conflict with the United States.
All in all the clouds over German
American relations now are less low
ering than for a long time.

of Villa followers at Corral ranch, 15
miles southwest of Jimenez. Both
sizes suffered heavy losses.
Rather than retire to Jimenez with
out carrying out his orders, which
were not to return unless he was able
TO report success, General Ramos
fought in his entrenchments until
killed, cheering his men on to the
last.
The Carranza troops were sur
rounded Monday at daybreak, and for
more than II hours held their position
against heavy odds in the hope that
reinforcements soon would arrive.
At nightfall, after their leader had
been killed and the greater part of
the command killed or wounded, the
survivors retired to Jimenez with their
wounded.
Three times during the day the Villa
men dashed through heavy fire to the
edge of the Carranza trenches, but
were unable to take them.
Reinforcements, which had been
ordered to join General Ramos at
Corral, were delayed by a wreck near
Ortiz, and the proposed general of
fcnsive against the Villa forces did
rot materialiZe.
