 h an address h the Brooklyn Aca- demy of Music 3lr. Taft gave his ylews on the subject Of national defense. The principle which he advocated primar- Ily was tLis.
 We need navy as large as the navy of any other nation which has standing army big enough to spare z50.000 soldiers within a month for an attack upon thls country"
 He believes that the navy should be at least 30 per cent stronger than 1t Is now. He sees practical objections to the creation of a large standlnt army He fears that 1t would be irn- for example, to secure for a standing army in peace times 500,0oo men. for the sound and sufficient req son that no such number of competent men could be had to serve at s15 a month and possibly not at doubt that figure. He would add 100000 men to the coast defense artillery, but the great reliance Of the country should 'e upon its navy. We should need | | year to train an army for war, but y keeping our navy and coast de- enes up to proper strength We can nake the Atlantic and Pacific ocean, cal bulwarks against aggression"

JiMES WHITCOMB RILEY DEAD
Poet Beloved by the Entire Nation
 Expires at Indianapolis Home.

Indianapolis, Ind, July 22-James Whitecomb Riley, the Indiana poet, died this evening.
 Mir Riley suffered from the extreme heat all today, but he was thought to be resting easy tonight. He asked his nurse for drink of water at II o'clock When she returned with it he was dead. Death was due to stroke Of paralysis.
 Mir. Rley was peculiarly sensitive as to the advance of age and always evad- ed inquiries as to the date of his birth, but the most accurate information available indicates that he was born in lS4S.
 The poet was the son of Reuben A. Riley. a lawyer and political speaker Oi Greenfield, Ind. The boy could not | be brought to the dull routine of school days. but he was wise in the lore of streams and fields. His moth CT was writer of verse and Riley at ] to her.
 Instead of preparing for the practice of law, as his father wished, the son turned itinerant sign painter For 10 years he roved through the Ohio Val Hey, painting signs on fences, He was naturally musical and shone as fiii- CT in the villages at which his party stopped at night He wrote rhymes, which sometimes found their way in to the country newspapers.
 He led his cheerful, free and easy life late in the 70's, then he took en- ployment as a reporter on a newspa- per at Anderson, Ind.
 He Won a Public
 In the early sos he began writing verses in "Hoosier" dialect for the old Indianapolis Journal He sent some of his poems to Henry Wads- worth Longfellow and they received his praise. A volume was published and the Hoosier post" began to win public. He was an excellent reader of his own dialect verses and for the following 15 years, or until 1898, he made tours of the country, appearing in public with great success both alone and in association with the hu- ,norist, Bill Nye, who was his inti. mate friend. .@r Publication of books of poems year

COLQUlTT LEADS
 SENATE RACE
Others are Very Close and a Run. Off Primary Must
 Be Held

Dallas Texas, July 23-Although @ second primary for the Democratic United States senatorial nomination is eassary. Former Governor o. B. Colquitt was increasing his lead over the field when more complete returns from yesterdays state primary be- came known tonight Notable in the recent developments was the passing by senator Charles A. Culberson, seek ing renomination, of Dr. s. P. Brooks. It still is indecisive as to who tno other candidate in the "run-off' will be.
 With returns from 0,O0O votes cast counted at that hour, the following figures on the senatorial race were available: Colquitt, S7,00O; Culber- son, 60.321; Brooks, 6O137; former governor Campbell, 46,064; Congress- man R. L. Henry, 29,1O9 John Davis, 6321.
 The early lead for submission of a constitutional amendment for state wide prohibition was steadily declin- ing as returns from anti-prohibition counties came in.
 Figures in the governors race were: Governor James E. Ferguson, 153 519, C. H. Morris, 110,77S; H. c. Marshall, TIT.
 Daniel F. Garrett and Jeff McLe- more, both of Houston, were leading tie field for the nomination of con- gressman at large, and their victory was almost certain Their nomin;- tion and subsequent election will give the city of Houston three resident re- presentatives in Congress.

London, Juyl 23-The fourth week of the SOmme battle begins we'll for the entete allies and is expected to Dc fruitful of important developments Before Saturday midnight the British began new attack on the whole line from Pozieres to Guillemont, and that General Haig has been able to resume the offensive so soon after the unsuc- cessful German counter-attacKs of last week, in which very strong German forces were brought forward, is re- garded as good augur.
 The fighting has been of the flercest character. the Germans working with their utmost strength to prevent the British from advancing to their third Illne positions. But when the last re- pQrts left headquarters in France, the Australians had firmly established themselves in Pozieres and are report ed to have placed themselves astride the road in the direction of Bapaume
  while at Guillemont and Longueval fortunes fluctuated, both places chang ing hands several times. Late tonight the lighting was proceeding with the utmost violence.
 The German counter-attacks recent ly delivered against the French front have proved equally unsuccessful. and the entete allies now are fighting slow ly in the direction of Combles, which is only two miles distant from Guille- mont
 According to reliable estimate, the British and French together have cap tured since July 1, more than 26,O0O prisOners and 40 guns.

London, July 23.- From the eastern frontier comes the report of continued Russian successes, General Kuropat- kin having cut Field Marshal von Hin denburg's line at several points and, according to an unofficial report, has penetrated a distance of five miles.
 Russian official reports of the oper- ations in this sector (2iga) are ex- ceedingly reticent, but Von Hinden- burg's line was considered the strong est on the whcle eastern front. and that the Russians were able to break it is regarded as most significant nere. Berlin, however, asserts that the Russian attempts to advance southeass of Riga and efforts of Russian troops to cross the Styr in VoIhynia were broken up. Volhynia tried last night to break the Russian line along the river Stokhod near Bereznica, 25 miles northeast of Kovel, but failed and were compelled to retire.
