accomplished all that had been
planned for the first day of this bat
tie, which, in its early stages, gives
promise of being the greatest conflict
OF the war. Roughly speaking, the
British penetrated positions held by
Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria,
between Boesinghe and Warneton, and
were in possession of the first three
lines of the German trenches at most
points throughout this front. Reports
received from the French troops.

territory between Dixmude and point
near BoesinGhe. say they have forced
their way across the marsh-studded
and partly inundated region, and cap
tured the first two lines of German
trenches.
The casualties of the entente allies
have been surprisingly light, and the
morale of the men continues at the
highest pitch. The contact between
the British and French armies has
been constant and excellent.
Late Tuesday 1t was reported that
the Germans had begun heavy coun-
ter attack at the point where the en-
tente allied forces join.

TRAIL POISON PLOT
Gather Evidence to Prove 1. w. w.
COnspired to Kill Off Cattle.

Chicago, Dec. 22.-Federal officials
today said that the raid on local l. w.
w. headquarters Monday was made
with the hope of discovering evidence
connecting Industrial Workers of the
World with an alleged poison plot
aimed at wholesale destruction of cat
tie and hogs thruout the United States,
and particularly in the southwest II
was generclly supposed that the raid
was made to secure more evidence
against the 166 indicted members.
Officials today said. however, that
they had plenty of evidence against
these persons. 1t is understood that
the poison is being shipped out of st.
Ouis.
Officials said the poison was mixed
with cattle feed and caused a disease
similar to the foot and month dis
ease. Operatives have been stationed
in 1. w. w. headquarters since Mon
days raid and it is said that they have
collected damaging evidence Of a
poison plot. George F. Vandeveer, at
totney for most of the 106 indicted l.
w. WIS now under arrest, yesterday
protested to the authorities against the
stationing of operatives in the 1. w.
w. headquarters, saying it was v1o-
lation of the constitution.

TO SPEED ARMY TEST
Drafted Man Claims Foreign Service
Is Unconstitutional.

Kansas City, Mo-, Dec. 22.-Hear-
ing on what is believed to be the first
case of a drafted man asking writ of
habeas corpus to escape foreign army
service probably will begin before
Federal Judge John c. Pollock here
within the next ten days. The court
has assured attorneys representing
Robert Cox, stationed at Camp Fun
ston, who is seeking the writ, that
the hearing will be rushed in order
that the case may be taken to the
United States supreme court.
Cox, in the petition for the writ,
does not object to service. but does
not desire to be sent to Europe, and
he attacks the corstitutionality of the
selective service law. The petition al
leges that congress only has power to
call the men for their repel1ing of an
invasion, putting down insurrection
and executing the laws. Hannis Tay-
Tor, former United States minister to
Spain, is chief attorney for Cox.

PLAN BIC DANCE
Ake-POt Affair To Be Feature
of Winter Season.
OrchestraS To Alternate To
Keep Feet Flying.

According TO the plans outlined by
the Ake-Pots at their meeting Friday
noon, the coming dance of that organs
ization will be- one of the feature
events of the winter season in Topeka
Two orchestras will furnish the witch
ing music to lure willing feet in the
mazes of the dance-and there will be
no interval between the dances. When
one orchestra finishes the playing of
one measure the other orchestra will
Immediately take up the burden and
dance will follow dance without ces-
sation. This is probably the first oc-
caSion in the history of the city when
there will be no intermission appre-
ciable between dances. Incidentally
the ambitious young bloods of the city
will have one entertainment this sea-
son when they will be able to get their
fill of dancing in the space of one
evening.
Dancing will not be the only feature
of the carnival for along with it will
be a real midway, and possibly an in
itiation of a candidate into the lodge,
and maybe a ten minute talk by one
of the silver tOngued ones of Topeka.
1t seems that great number of the
people of the city have taken unto
themselves the idea that the Ake-Pots
are primarily organized for the sole
purpose of providing fun for its men,
D6TS anu LOT the entertainment OF VS.
itors' at conventions held in the city.
The officers of the Ake-Pots take con-
siderable umbrage at this altogether
erroneous impression, and vehemently
declare that the Ake-Pots are formed
for the purpose of boosting Topeka.
There is a great deal of fun and jol-
lily connected with the lodge, but in
itself the ritual of the organization is
based on the big clean ideas of life,
broadly seen and interpreted. The
ritual of the Shriners, perhaps the
most impressive in use today, has a
great deal of horse play in the part of
1t exhibited before the public, yet the
people do not jump to the conclusion
that the lodge of the Shriners is no
especial good to its members. Look
at the Ake-Pots the same way and the
organization will become bigger and
better until in the end its annual car
nIval Will rank with the Mardi Gras.
