BAD FOR RUMANIA
Unable to Stem Tide of German
Invaders From North.
Bad Weather Brings SOmme
Campaign to StandstiIl.

The position of Rumania appears in
creasingly precarious. General Won
FaIkenhayn's armies are continuing to
force their way southwark from the
Pennsylvania border and Petrograd
admits further retirement of the
Rumanians in the jul valley region.
Near Dragoslavel, north of Campu-
lung, the Rumanian troops appear to
be offering their most stubborn re-
sistance, but Berlin declares the Rus
sian attacks have been delivered by
poorly organized forces and have been
fruitless
The greatest peril to the Ruman-
ians, according to the view of the
entente military critics. lies in the re-
ported cutting of the railway from the
Danube to Cracova. threatening the
fanks of the Rumanian army south
of Vulcan pass and making the posi-
ton of the Russian army at Orsova
hazardous.
France apparently has brought opera
tions to a virtual standstill. Neither
London or Paris reports any move of
Importance during last night. Berlin,
however. mentions Britains having
gained ground yesterday in attempts
north of the Ancre near Miraumont
and between Serd and Beaucourt and
the respulse of a French attack on st.

the British were driven from the

make an appearance in this world.
They usually die a short time after
they arrive To eradicate the disease

combs fall off, and the bees are placed
in a new hive.

spect the bees. The laws of Kansas
governing bees and honey satisfy the

Henderson S. Martin of Kansas,

this week will lay his resignation be-
fore President Wilson. Confirmation
of Martins proposed resignation was
received by the State Journal today
from a special correspondent in Wash

plans to resign from his fat job. is
the report that he will urge President
Wilson to name George H. Hodges.
former governor; as his successor.
In Kansas political circles it is be-
lieved that Martin will later be ap-
pointed to a position in the federal
service, which will permit him to
spend the greater portion of his time
in Kansas 1t is also reported that
Martin will be groomed for the gov
ernorship race in 1918. That Martin
does not expect to return to the is

news from Washington today indi-
Gates that Martins resignation is to
be presented early this week 1t may
not be formally announced until later
in the week.
| Reports from Washington also in
.dicate that Martin will ask President

successor to the job in the Philippine
Islands. Recently a 10 per cent salary
cut was made in the office. The job
now pays about $4,000 a year actual
cash But Martin didn't like the job
He was lonely. He missed Kansas
people and the Kansas spirit. He was
always six weeks late with the news
at home and he was never able to
! mix in the local fights. So Martin
asked for a vacation at a time thai
would permit him to participate in the
Kansas campaign. Now he expects tt
remain.
