the British advanced over the fiercely
contested fields between Langemarck
and Frezenberg. No details of the
new battle have been received thus far.
The Importance OF these positions is
shown by the desperate counter at
tacks last week by the Germans after
the Irish troops had made consider

Sharp fighting continues around the
coal mining center of Lens, in the out
skirts of which the British are max

resistance of the Germans. Counter
attacks during the night failed to
shake the British from their new posi-.

are reported officially from London.
The Germans continued their efforts
to recapture ground gained by the new
French offensive on the Verdun front
Heavy counter attacks were made on
both sides of the Meuse and although
the Germans were able to gain foot

NATIONAL FORESTS
 ARE IN 19 STATES

Under authority of an act of con- gress passed in 1891 the president of the United States is empowered to set apart public lands bearing forests as public reservations. The primary pur- pose of the national forests are to in- sure continuous production of timber and favorable conditions as to flow of water. As means to these ends strict supervision is maintained over the sale of mature timber, and the forest areas are guarded against fire.
 These areas are much used by camp CTS, hunters and fishermen. 'Recre- ation maps" are issued which not only present maps of many of the national forests, showing towns, streams. roads and trails, but contain information pertaining to camp sites, fish and game, and campers registers are kept at the headquarters of the forest su- pervisors.
 The national forests, 153 in number are scattered over nineteen states Alaska and Porto Rico. All but two of these states, Florida and Michigan lie west of the Mississippi. The total area of national forest land, excluding that of other lands within nationa forest boundaries, is 244,1S9 square miles. This area is nearly as great a, that of the state of Texas or of New England, New York, Pennsylvania New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Dis trict of Columbia, Virginia and Wes Virginia combined, or of Ohio, lndi- ana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin combined

MP0RTANT CASE
 |S CONSIDERED BY COMMISSION

Does beneficiary society selling in- su1ance without profit to railroad em- ployes have to get a permit from the state corporation commission to do business in Arizona? That question will be decided by that commission, which yesterday took case involving the question under advisement.
 Local life insurance men under the organized name of the Arizona Life underwriters association some time ago brought action before the commits sicn charging that business was heinz done in Arizona without a permit by the Enployes Mutual Benef7- association, an organization conducted by and dO- ing business with employees of the Southern Pacific company.
 The complaint was heard last spring by the commission, and re-opened yes terday in order to give H. C. Booth, attorney for the railroad, and the ben eft association. an opportunity to ma Ike statement. The benefit association has a surplus of $260,000. The South ern Pacific company acts as treasurer and pays per cent interest on the surplus.
 The association, which was organ ized in 1880, through it's representatives at the hearing testified that it was not operated for profit. Those insured in the association are principally office men in the employ of the railroad com amy
