KINGMAN HOME
GUARDS BEGIN
WAR TRAINING
(From Fridays Daily Minsr)

NFFOm FElQay 5 DhAig AHeNJ
The Kingman Home Guards met
last evening at the courthouse. Every
man who had signed the roster was
present. The bugle was sounded
promptly at 7:3O and a very interest
ing meeting was held in the court
room at which Joseph Rosenberg pre-
sided as chairman in the absence of
Sheriff Cohenour.
kilograms and other communica-
tions from Governor Campbell and
others were read in regard to the Sc
curing of firearms and the guard will
be equipped at an early date by the
Council of Safety in accordance with
the rules and regulations of the Rifle
Club of America, blanks for which are
now in the mails.
1t was decided by the committee
and members that the guard should
be divided into two divisions; the first
to be composed of men who could con-
veniently spare the time for drilling
and the other of men who will take
such training as they can, including
target practice on the rifle range.
About so members were placed for the
first division and, after the meeting,
were drilled for one hour in the court
house grounds and street. The COM
pany was divided into eight squads
and, after drilling, a parade was held
at which John Shields acted as drum
major.
At the meeting it was also decided
that Kingman should celebrate in a
good, old-fashioned manner the Fourth
of July, by which time it is expected
that the Home Guards will be fully
able to hold exhibition drills with full
equipment.
An offer of the Desert Power &
Water company to string lights over
the ball park, which will be used as
a parade ground, and furnish the nee
essary electricity free of charge was
enthusiastically received. 1t is eX-
pected that drills will be held every
evening in order to accommodate the
men who are employed during the day
and unable to attend at any other
time.
Arrangements will be made as to
the time for rifle practice. Members
are to report to Sheriff Cohenour or
at the Daily Miner office as to their
proper home addresses, telephone
number and firearms possessed by
them.

PORT COMPLlMEN1ED
fFrom Friday's Daily Miner

With "Good Work" as the heading,
the following appeared in the editorial
column of a recent issue of one of
the leading newspapers of Boston,
Mass:
at is but fair that a word of COM
mendation be spoken for the prompt
and efficient manner in which Collec-
tor Billings of the port of Boston has
handled the problems connected with
the German steamships and their
crews in this harbor.
"With swiftness and silence and
complete lack of unpleasant friction,
the orders from Washington relating
to the steamers and men have been
carried out to the letter, and yet with
lack of anything like harshness or
even discourtesy to the Germans be-
longing to the vessels. 1t has been a
very good exhibition of the correct
way to do things of that sort"

FRENCH ARMY
CONTINUES To
SCORE GAINS
(FrOm a Staff Correspondent of the
Associated Press)

GRAND. HEADQUARTERS. OF
FRENCH ARMY ON THE FRENCH
FRONT, April 19.-The French sue
cess in the forward movement was
much more considerable than reported
by published reports or the army COM
muniques, which narrate a very sober
tale of the events. There IS no in
tention of relaxing the pressure on the
Germans who are opposing a tenaci-
Gus resistance without avail.
Besides points of formidable
strength, and most important strate-
gic values, such as Ostel, Courtroom
and Vailly, which have fallen before
the French assaults, reports sent by
runners. from accommodating parties
indicate steady progress everywhere
and large captures of material. To-
days weather was better for the OPP
erations, but it was so misty that air
planes were almost useless.
The commanders of the German re-
Inducements, hurrying to the front,
appear to have lost their heads or
have been badly directed IN several
cases. One division marched directly
into wire entanglements and was al
most entirely annihilated or taken
prisoner. Eighteen new German di-
visions have been thrown into the
front since Monday, several of which
were blown virtually to pieces by the
artillery after their arrival. One di-
vision which launched directly into an
Intellectual encounter, at Juvincourt,
suffered in this way.
Owing to the length of the battle
line, the Germans are no longer so
much favored by maneuvering on the
inside line circle.
