London, Jan. 12.-There have been no developments on the Russian front, where cold weather again has set In, the thermometer at some points touch- ing 20 degrees below zero. Although for the moment the Russians have ceased their attack upon the Austro- erman lines, from the Pripet river to the Bessarabian frontier, information from German sources is they mere ly are reorganizing their forces for an- other formidable assault.
 The Russians are reported as fortify ing the positions recently won and in this way their front gradually has been extended until they occupy about 34 miles of the east bank of the middle reaches of the Stripa river, a position which it is deemed here is secure against the Austrians.

In doing so I deem it proper to re- fer to myself. I was born in Little River County 43 years ago; I received my education in the schools of this State, and on arriving to my majority l worked for several years in various capacities, and held by election the office of Circuit Clerk of Little River County. In the meantime I devoted my leasure time to the study of law. When retiring from office I Became a farmer, which vocation I followed for several years until misfortune from overflow from Red River swept away all I had acquired I then returned to the practice of law, having previously been admitted to the bar, and have now been actively engaged in that profession for the last ten years, in Texarkana, Arkansas.

If he were infallible, and at all times dealt out equal and exact justice under the law, there might be some reason for the people to contin- ue him indefinitely. Forty percent oi the cases from Judge Shaver's court reported to the Supreme Court have Eeen reversed.
