New Offensive Begun.
Twenty miles southwest of Riga.
along the railway line running from
Nitau, the seaport, the Germans have
begun a new offensive Here big
battle is in progress, but in whose
favor it is going has not vet been tola
by the Russian and German official
communications. Neither is anything
eontainod in them concern ng tho
operations near Lake Babit. where
the Germans wore last reported at
taeking about L mites west Of Riga
Preparation evidently was made
last week in raids - Girplanas on
warships and military works in til

German torpedo boat destroyers, sub
marines and miae-sweeping uawlers
in adjacent waters for the now Of

attack is being carried out synahro-
aously by sea has hot become appar-
ent.
Sill Ear From Petrcgrad.
Vale the capture of Riga would
be of great Stragetic value to the Ger
mans in controlling the entrance Of
the Gulf of Finland, at the head of
which stands Petrograd, it would not
necessarily place the capital in jcop-
ardy for it lies overland 300 miles
as the crow flies from Riga. and $50
miles by rail.
In southern Moldavia the Russians
fighting near Fokshapi in conjunction
with the Rumanians, evidently have
ceased their assertions and again are
facing the enemy. Here, according
to Berlin, they have delivered heavy
counter-attacks against Field Marsh
Won Mackenzen's forces. Near
Braila, southwest of Galatz on the
Danube, the Germans were repealed in
an attack on the Russian positions.
More Gains for Italians.
On the Italian front General Ca
dorna's forces have extended their
gains en- the Brestovizza plateau, on
the slopes of Monte San Gabrielle,
and east of Gorilla, and have taken
additional prisoners and war stores.
Five Italian airplanes have flown
from the Italian front over Vienna
and dropped pamphlets telling the
Austrian people OF the victory of the
Italians from Tolmino to the sea
In Belgium the British big guns
are continuing to lombard violently
the German positions evidently pre-
pairing the way for another smash at
Crown Prince Buppreche's front. The
infantry activity here and ALSO to the
south in France is mainly in the ma
ture of raiding operations. Near
Havrincourt the Germans in a sharp
attack pushed back the British, but
LATER left the German center in a
counter-attack.
Heavy artillery duels also are in
progress along the Aisne, in Cham
payne and in the Verdun sector, but
the infantry has remained virtually
inactive.

LIVE CHIEFLY ON TURTLES
Residents Of Small Islands on Coast
Of ceyIon Find Plenty Of Food
Near At Hand.

A correspondent of Ceylon journal
gives some interesting information
about the turtles on the coast in the
neighborhood Of Jnffnn. in the north Of
the island, which are said to be in
Vulnerable. They nre of three species.
called sen, milk and pariah turtles, re-
spectively.
The ordinary. or sen turtle, is gener-
ally large in size. and Is met with
everywhere mt sen around Jnffnn. Two
tiny islands. called 1rnnntivu, are liter
ally swarming with the creatures.
The islands themselves are sterile
md always exposed to innndntion; the
inhabitants are poor and ignorant of
agriculture. and live chiefly on the tur.
ties. They use the shells of the large
ones rs seats.
In the town Of JnfFna the ordinary
turtle Is always prOcurablc. and is q
favorite article Of food with the peO
pie. The milk turtle is small in size
and Is to he found only in wells and
banks. 1t Is not nn article Of food cx
cept with the poorer classes. The
parlah turtle has high bnck, and q
shell which somewhat resembles thnt
Of the tortoise. 1t Is found In marshes
and bitches. 1t Is not nn article OF
food. but Is highly valued by native
medical men. because Its flesh ant
blood are supposed to be panacea fol
ailments peculiar to children.
