 Pounding at the
 German Trenches

lively ArtiIlerx


 Good visibility favored the develop ment of lively artillery activity. In Flanders the artillery duel on the coast and in some sectors between Hou- tholst Wood and the Lys increased several times to the most violent drum fire.
 Northeast of Arras strong British reconnoitering attachments pressed forward and at some points even reached our lines, whence they were driven back.
 Crown Prince Front
 Front of the German Crown Prince: Along the Aisne, notably northeast of Soissons, in the Cham pagne and before Verdun, the activity of bur own and the enemy's artillery increased many times to great inten- sity. Two aeroplanes were shot down by one of our pursuing) echelons) from enemy aerial sQuadrons, which bom- barded Colmar twice yesterday. In ad- dition to these the enemy lost sixteen aeroplanes.'

KANSAS DOCTOR IN LETTER TELLS IF
 FORT RILEY CAMP
Topeka Medico Writes Bisbee Friend Telling Him of
 Great Training in Prepara- ton for the National Draft.

Dr. James G. Stewart, of Topeka, Kan. a young doctor, exempt from the draft, with a fine and growing practice, enlisted for the medical corps for the term of the war. He came from a fighting Scotch family, and he simply could not bide at home when there was a chance of fighting in France, where so many brave Scots ha' died. Writing to a friend in Bis bee about the big training camp at Fort Riley, where the Bisbee contin- gent is quartered, this patriotic and idealistic young medico describes his feelings briefly as follows:
 There are thirteen companies of medicos, 15O each, here in the camp, so you see there is quite a bunch of us. The procedure which We are go- ing through is called intensive train ing, and the term is most applicable. We begin the day at 5:15 a. m. and quit at p. m.. having an hour for ourselves from 9 to 10 p. m., when the lights go out.
 "The psychology of preparing men for war is wonderful to watch. The enthusiasm is contagious in a camp of this size, and the intensity of the whole thing is past belief. When they first come to camp the men growl and complain. Then along comes a regular army officer, and in wonder full talk shows them the proper view point, which are the real ones get And then commences the terrific drive to get them into shape and make them amenable to discipline and teach them to take care of themselves

 LONDON, Sept. 1.-The official re- port from British headquarters in France tonight says:
 This morning the enemy attempted to raid our trenches south of Lom1 baertzyde. The hostile party was re- ceived and repulsed with loss before reaching our trench.
 Our artillery was active during the day in the Ypres sector.
 From Sunday the visibility has i'm proved and a good deal of successful artillery work and photographing has been accomplished. During the fine intervals the enemy aircraft were ac- tive, being greatly favored by strong west wind. In the course of the morning hostile machines dropped fifty bombs behind our lines. Very little damage was done.
 Our aeroplanes dropped 143 bombs on a German aerodrome and billts) and fired many thousands of rounds from their machine guns at various targets on the ground. In particular, body of 2,000 German infantry was engaged with machine gun fire rom height of 100 feet and scattered.
 Six German airplanes were brought down in combat and four others were driven down out of control In addi tion, one hostile machine was brought down in our lines by anti-aircraft gun fire. Eight of our aeroplanes are missing"

LOYALTY LEAGUE IF NACO ENTtRTAINS
 FIRST REGIMENT
Naco Branch of Local Organi- zation Stages Enthusiastic Dinner in Honor of Arizona Soldies Soon to Leave Bor- der.

Saturday night Naco did herself proud. In a hall magnificently deco rated in the national colors, the Loy- alty League of America did honor to the Naco men who are about to leave for service in the army of the United States. With the table set for over 700 guests; with red, white and blue carnations mingling their fragrance with the patriotic spirit in the air, the many people in attendance forgot, for a while, that they were in a little border town. They were carried on the wings of fancy to great eastern city. Naco, without many facilities for staging a banquet, gave an affair which in its complete elaborateness left nothing to be wanted
 The evening opened with the rous- ing choral singing of Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean" Then, during the serving of courses, music and enter tainment features were offered by talented representatives of the people of Naco. Piano solos. duets, readings and a Spanish quartet of young wom- en made up varied and thoroughly delightful program.
 After coffee and cigars, H. E. Der ner introduced the first speaker, Ma jor Hayes. Major Hayes spoke in place of Colonel Donkersley, who was unable to attend because of sickness. Responding to the toast, "Our Sam mies," he told how our boys ~Over There" came to get their name, and in a simple, graceful manner he ex- plained the duty of the men in whose honor the banquet was given, and of the great privilege which was theirs in being called to the colors of their country.
 Major Hedicke spoke next on Our Navy" Dwelling impressively on the glorious traditions which our men of the sea have handed down from gen. eration to generation since the birth of the nation, the major brought en- thusiastic applause when he conclud- ed with the statement that the Amer ican navy was about to win greater fame and honor.
 Major Coykendall talked on Our Allies" Briefly and effectively he sketched the parts which England. France, Russia and Italy are now playing in Christianity's war against Teutonic barbarism.
 Major Grinstead responded to the toast, 'The World War-Our Part in It." A quiet, forceful speaker, Grin stead drove home in indelible Ian gauge just what war meant to the United States, and what our allies are expecting us to do.
 Miles Merrill, the popular president of the Loyalty League of America, was the next speaker. He departed from the general trend of the re-

 with European nations. It is not nee essary to have them. When we sit at the council table of the world, trust we may do so as the representa- tive of a newer and better isolation an isolation of the spirit, free to say to the Germanic people, but let Us government you please. but let us know that it is yours;' free to said to the oldest of the oldest of the con stitutionals, the British Empire, we have made this fight with you as our ally in the cause of democracy, but we are not willing to change our sys tens. The Windsor tie does not har monize with the cut of our democ' racy."

OVER.SEA SLANG IS 'PUNCHY' AND WILL
 BE USED BY YANKEE
Local Man Tells of Words in Common Usage in France Relative to the w a T French Vocabulary Adapt able.

Ere long many more men from the county will be leaving for the train ing camps, and in few months the men who have already gone will be in France.
 And when they get to France, '' says Mac H. Donaldson of the local "Y," they are going to learn some. thing new in the way of choice slang
 Every type of soldier has his own peculiar way of putting things. Kip ling has for a long time kept us fa- miliar with the stock in trade expres. sions of the British 'Tommie,' but even 'Tommie's' vocabulary has been greatly enlarged during the past three years.
 When the tanks put in their first appearance one of the Scottish High landers took a single look and then solemnly swore off drinking for all time. 'Tommie,' amused at the thought of a comrade who imagined himself seeing them again. promptly called the tanks Them and the name stuck. In justification to the Scotchman, however, it must be remembered that the occupants of the first Them had fishing pole with an officers pink 'nightie" attached to the rear of the huge machine as a sort of grotesque tail. Almost any man might think, viewing the rather startling effect, that he was seeing them again. "A man who brings down seven or more aeroplanes is known as an As The pronunciation is 'ass,' but the treatment accorded such a man isn't at all in keeping with the way his characterization sounds. Nothing is too good in France for an As Slackers
 The French term for a stacker is an ''embusque'-thati is. some one who lies hidden. It is usually applied to any one that is not actually fighting
 The frst-line trenches are known as the butcher shops" and when a Frenchman who goes to such a posi- tion is questioned regarding his des tination he remarks naively, a la boucherie.'
 "Whizz-Bangs"
 "Sharpnel is something with which every man who has been at the front is more or less familiar, and 'Tommie calls the bursting shells 'whizz-bangs. The name itself is more completely descriptive than any words could make ! it.
 "'Tommie' also has named the French girls. A miss is Prudence when she refuses to smile at the ever fiirtive Englishman, but when she re turns his smile, and perhaps offer: two very pretty lips for a rather per sonal salutation she is 'Suzette'
 The Spirit of France
 The French spirit today is rather peculiar She fights on more or les: indifferently to the wishes of her al lies, determined on one thing and ont alone. She is determined to win bacl Alsace-Lorraine if she must spend tht blood of every man in France to do it But withal, it is a splendid spirit, anC we should be proud of our temper mental and gallant allies of the tri color.'

VICIOUS ATTACK
ON LITTLE GIRL
Gilbert Meyers Brought Here From
Charlottesville for safe-keeping
After Attempted Assault.

Charged with attempting to criminal
ly assault a nine year-old girl OF
Gilbert Meyers, of that
city, was rushed to Richmond late yes
terday by officers of the university
city. The crime was attempted about
noon yesterday, and as soon as the
man was apprehended he was taken
in an automobile to a nearby station
and there put aboard Il train for Rich
mond. The officers feared that news
OF the occurrence would arouse the
neiS h borhood and an attempted lynch
ing might follow. Last night the man
was locked up in the Henrieo county
Jail
Details as to the crime with which
the man is charged were meagre. 1t
Is understood that Meyers is twenty
six years old. He was arrested short
ly after the crime by Chief of Police
Damron, OF Charlottesville, and brought
to Richmond by Officer J. c. Marsh.
The officer returned TO Charlottesville
last night. 1t is not known when the
trial will be held. but 1t Is believed
that ii will be speeded up.
