Latest Thrust In Champagne
By German Crown Prince
Is Fooled

The soldiers of revolutionary Rus

tempts to break through the Austro-
German lines in Eastern Galicia.
Cheered by the results of the fight
ing during the first three days Of
July General Brussiloff's men con-
tinue their efforts, especially in the
region of Brzenzany, and are throw
ing fresh forces against the Teuton
positions.
During Sunday and Monday, the
first two days of the new drive, the
Russians captured 900 officers and
$4,000 men, and on Tuesday and
Wednesday probably added several
more thousands to the total. Twenty
nine guns and twenty-three machine
guns were taken from the Austro-
Germans. -.,
Violent artillery duels have been
in progress on the Koniuchy-Zloch-
off sector, on the Stokhod, in Volhy-
mia, and at Brody on the Galician-
Volhynian frontier.
In the Champagne on the western
front, the German Crown Prince has
made another desperate and fruit
less efforts to break the Frencn lines
northwest of Rheims. Attacking 1 in
force along an eleven-mile front, the
Germans made especially strong ef-
forts around Gerry and Allies and
against the California plateau. The
French repulsed all attacks with
losses. ~t,~f

OPERA HOUSE FRIDAY

Herbert Grayson, a wealthy New
Yorker, has large timber holdings in
the wooded, mountainous district of
a Southern pine state. He will not
have schools in the mountains. pre-
ferring to profit by the ignorance of
the natives. One of his mills has
been burned, and he accuses Len
Mathis, young mountaineer, of set
ting it afire. In trying to avoid ar
rest Len is killed, and old John
Mathis, his father, swears to shoot
Grayson or any member of his fam
lily on sight. His young daughter,
Renie, makes the same vow.
Graysen is anxious to get control
of lands owned by Mathis, bnt the
cid man will not sell, and Graysc,. s
nephew Eric Southard, volunteers to
go to Hibbitsville and effect the pur-
chase. E1;c starts for the home OF
Peets his uncle's foreman, in the

Hibbitsville to get cartridges.
One of the tires of the automobile
bursts and Renie thinking the re-
port Of a gun creeps behind Eric and
the chauffeur who are mending the
tire and makes them throw up their
hands. When they explain that the
tires contain wind, she shoots one in
order to prove it, and while the
chauffeur is repairing the damage
she and Eric sit by che roadside. He
is much interested by the little
girl. On going to the vii

Peets' cabin to avenge her brother.
Trying to shoot through the window,
she misses Eric, who returns her
fire, and slightly wounds her. Over

HOW WELL HE KNOWS AMERI.
CANS
(From New York Times)

\rEOm NeW 1Ork 1lmeS)
German logic certainly certainly
is peculiar. One Rudolph Kommer,
having lived in this country and OBJ
served our queer ways and doings un
til circumstances over which he had
no control made it expedient for him
to go home with Count Won Bern
stroff, lis now writing about us in
the Frankfurter Zeitung, the paper
he served as American correspond
ent. Herr Kommer seems not to be
without either powers of observation
or the inclination to describe accu-
rately what le sees. Therein he diff
fers commercially from not a few
other American correspondents Of
German papers, but when it comes
to drawing deductions from his
facts, then Herr Kommer shows
himself to be true Teuton.
He tells the readers of the lei
tung that after the American gov
ernment declared itself to be in a
state of war with Germany there
was no wild outburst of animosity
against the Germans here. On the
contrary-and evidently to Herr
Kommer's vast surprise they were
teated just about as they were be-
fore, which was very well indeed.
No mobs assaulted them in the street,
no cries of animosity were raised
against them, and afterward, as
treated just about as they were be-
full recognition of such merits as
he possessed, and whatever kindness
he had earned the received from his
neighbors. - t4s Srs
y This, in Herr Krommer's judg-
ment, proves that We are. not a mill
tant people, that we have as little
heart as liking for war, and that we
have special fondness for : Ger
many! To have convinced him, ap-
parently, that we were foes, to be
viewed with seriousness and appre-
hension, we should have gone raging
abo'.t our towns with clubs and -pis-
tolls in hand the moment war was de-
clAred was. started, and such Ger
mans as we did not kill outright-we
should have cast into loathly dung
cons, there to be kept briefly alive
with a little water and less bread.
That is the way a really warlike
nation acts, as of course is proved
by Herr Krommer by the conduct of
the Berlin populace when the war
began, and by the treatment of alien
enemies in the German prison
camps.

RAINS THREATENS AT NOON But WEATHER
MAN IS KIND and DAY PASSES OFF
CLORIOUSLY
OF THE DAY ATTENDED BY LARGEST CROWD
E8 E| 6 fAEEEBER 4EEEER FsR LOCAL CELEBRATION ION Of

July 4th, 1914 made history fol
Morgan City. From the start Of the
parade at l 80 in the afternoon tln-
til the dancer had left the scene Of
the Red CEoes Ball 1T tone.e o'clock
that night, enthusiasm flsmed in the
hearts Of the hot but exceedingly
happy citizens who contributed to
the success of the occacion by their
presence. Every feature of the day
was a success, banning the basket
supper which. had been planned but
dampness Of the ground. . "ea
As fitting prelude to the splen-
did celebration, a fine rain fell here
about IL o'clock in the morning.
The clouds keSt up their threatening
until after the parade had started
at 80. The weather outlook af-
fected the showing made by the
parade but it was creditable spec
tacle. "A large number of cars, most
of them decorated tastily with the
colors of the day, led by one of the
carnival bands of New Orleans and
tha-loc camp of Boy Scouts, Scout
Masters, and others took part in the
march. A float gotten up BY the
Elks contained a goat dressed in
highly colored apparel standing in
q pen, the side Of which bore the
words we've Got The Kaiser's
Goat"
The parade reached Deepwater
Park about 2 o'clock. At that time
the clouds began breaking away and
people from all parts of the escity and
parish began pouring into the big
grandstand. Before the ball game
between Morgan City and Berwick
had fairly started the seats in the
big stand were filled and the crowd
was overflowing upon the grounds:
The baseball game was the source of
great enjoyment to Morgan City
and Berwick people. Judged from
the standpoint of merit the teams
may have left something to be de-
sired, but they were all local players
and every fellow was well known to
most of the onlookers and this
neighborly feeling created an inter-
est that could not have been en-
hanced had the game been free
from errors and perfectly played.
The teams were about evenly match
I'd but the final result of the seven
innings of play showed the score to-
be Z, to s aefavor of Morgan City.
In spite Of the intense heat which
began to be felt as soon as the rain
clouds had cleared away, the two
speakers of the evening were given
close attention and the impressive
eloquence Of their messages was at
tended profoundly by those who
we're within the sound of their
voices. District Attorney Percy
Saint Of Franklin and Hon. G. L.
Wise of Morgan City made the ad-
iresses Of the afternoon and the
patriotic theme Of their words made
he significance Of the occasion
grip the hearts of their hearers. Dis
ret Attorney Saint is strong and
forceful speaker. His magnetic per-
is felt and the sincerity of
nis patriotism was apparent in the
fervor Of his speech. The Hon. C. L.
Wise portrayed the difference in the

/, manner of ostentatious respect
shown the flags of various nations
by subjects of the respective coun-
tries. He cited personal observa-
ton as an illustration of the appar-
ent lack of respect citizens of the u.
s.. accord the stars and stripes. He
rehearsed the history Of a few of the
thrilling and inspiring bits of Ameri-
can history tending to show to what
respect and devotion the flag is en-
titled and It'll is not unlikely that
his impassionel utterances will bear
fruit in Intensified patriotism in the
lives of all who heard them.
| After the speakers of the evening,
the attention of the, great audience
was called to the racing features of
the program. This entertainment in
cluded hundred yard dash by men,
bers of the baseball teams and
others, a three-legged race by Boy
Scouts, Fat Mems Race, which was
started by four entries but finished
by two, and ludicrous sack race by
two negroes. The winners of the
different races are not available at
this time. f....
The racing ended the program at
the base ball park and the crowd
then scattered until after supper.
Many Of them went direct to- Law
renee Park and had their supper
there or patronized the lunch stands
which were run by ladies Of the Red
Crpss. At 700 o'clock the beautiful
issle Lawrence Park begin to fill
with people and by the time the ex-
cellent open-air picture play staged.
by Mr.. Sol Loeb, had started there
was d record-breaking crowd in at
tendance. The pictures included an
episode of "Patria," a splendid
western drama, an Indian news filnf.s
an "Uncle Happy" comedy and the
Morgan City favorite, ga Stolen
Pie"
At $3.50 the fireworks display be-
gan and for fifteen minutes the air
was filled with fire -belching Roman
candles, roaring rockets, aerial
bombs and showers of vari-colored1
splashes and sparkles and crashing
The Red Cross. Dance at the City
Call was the closing part of the big
day. Probably no dance was ever at
tended by a greater crowd in this
city. The carnival band imported
from New Orleans for the occasion
produced the music for the !. dance
and from 8 o'clock until past mid
night the jewellers one-stepped,
walked and hesitationed. ~
The Red Cross ladies may well be
proud Of their July eth celebration.
