Farther back the deep throated

Under this appalling fire trudged
forward on the ten mile front, Gen
Plunmer's army. At many places the
men found German troops utterly
dazed by the mine explosion and the
ordeal Of the artillery fire. Many of
these troops had but recently come
from Russia, where they had spent
IS months and knew nothing OF what
actual warfare was like on the west
ern front. They had bolfed at the
first mine explosion and had only
been gathered together IN groups by
their non commissioned officers when
the British appeared out of the smoke

Merchants WiLL
 Abide by Wishes
 Of City's People

Twenty-one business houses of the Warren district were represented last evening at a meeting held in Bisbee at the Phelps Dodge Mercantile com pany's club room to consider the fu- ture of the o'clock closing. It was decided to determine, in every way possible, the wishes of the people of the entire community before a final decision is made.
 To this end George W. Ludwig, who was mad chairman of the meeting, appointed a committee of five to de vice ways and means to get as near as possible to the exact belief in the premises by the people. The commit tee named is M G. Koby. F. E. Coles, L. H. Bovee, H. NathansOn, Joe L. Dickstein.
 It developed last evening at the meeting of the business men that there is some difference of opinion on the matter of closing all stores at o'clock every Saturday, and in or QCT that udIlAlOlAg AHlSnl lCSuAl oAO that all of the business houses follow the same rule it was determined that some means be developed whereby the people could decide the matter.
 It will be remembered that, the dis trict, and particularly those of Bis bee, petitioned the merchants to try the o'clock closing for month. This was September l. Though it was ap- parent that a majority desired the trial to become a future rule, it was in consideration of the majority that the decision was reached to investi- gate further.
 Part of the plan to secure the peo- ple's views include a canvass of the members of the various organizations which signed the petitions at the out set. These organizations include the Loyalty league, Citizens Protective league, the WOman's Loyalty league,

Two hundred and seventy Cochise county men and a considerable num- Der of alternates will appear at Doug las this morning at 7:30 o'clock in answer to the third call for men for the National army. They will leave for Camp Funston, Kan, Wednesday evening on a special train.
 Douglas Y. M. c. A. will will be the gathering place for the men and the time will be early. Captain Harry C.. Wheeler, sheriff of Cochise county and chairman of the exemption board, will be there to meet the men and take charge of their first days two work in the National army.
 Bisbee is sending a large number of men for the occasion. Last even- ing was one of handshaking and of saying "good-byes' in the Warre1 district.
 People of Douglas, notably the wom, en, are preparing to give the men a great farewell time. This evening on Ninth street a carnival will be staged for their benefit. The drafted men will be honored guests. Ribbons, with the words, National Army, Cochise County, Arizona" will be given to every man. This is tantamount to a key to the city of Douglas.
 Many people from the Warren dis trict have made arrangements to go to the Shelter City today or tomor row for the final meeting of the men, and it seems certain that visitors from all parts of the county will throng Douglas with a similar purpose in view.
