 INNOCENCE CLAIMED
 Almost without exception the Geman officers still maintain that Germany is innocent of causing the war and say that there is "all manner of documentary evil dence to prove it'
 Discussing the present battle, the Ger man officers say that the British gas shell bembardment on the two nights preceding the opening of the infantry charge was most effective, and that the Germans suffered heavily. The Guard Flu silliers were heavily gassed Sunday and Monday night. Sunday night they were still in their supporting positions, but the following night preceding the battle they were in the process of carrying out helmets, but the gas clouds from the British penetrated the helmets and large numbers of the troops were overcome.
 A German division which was being held in support on the back line cross ing the Ypres-M road also suffered severely. So disastrous was the effect of the gas at this point that at least one battalion which was being rushed up to the relief of the men in the front lines never reached it's objective.
 It is the irony of fate that it was in this section oe the front that the Ger mans early in the war for the first time in history inaugurated the use of gas shells,

Officers Of Kaiser Taken Ln Flanders Battle Free
 10 Tell Of Conditions
By the Associated Press

British Headquarters in France and Belgium, August 3.-German officers cap- tured in the battle in Flanders have dis cussed quite freely both the military and political situation as it affects the fath- erland. Germanys loss in man power they admit to be serious.
 The interesting information has been volunteered by these prisoners that the entire class of 1918 recruits now is in the field in it's entirety and, what is more significant, it is said small ele- ments of the 1919 class already are at the front, although it is claimed they are serving only as volunteers. This is the first time any German officer has ad- mitted that any men of the 1919 class were on the battle front.
 BEGINNING TO FEAR
 The whole trend of the statements made by these captive officers Is that they are beginning to fear they may lose the war. More depressing than anything else is the fear that there may be an- other winter campaign. Peace without annexation or indemnity is indorsed by all the officers who have been discuss ing the question, but most of them have indicated that they favor the annexa- tion of eastern Belgium, and a part of the coast of Flanders, If such a thing could possibly be done.
 The men are highly intelligent An officer who has made study of economic matters, said the war already

DERNBURG REBUKES
GERMAN JINGOISTS
Says Presidents Reply to POpe's Peace
Note Is Being MiSrepresented.

Bernhard Dernburg, the former Ger
man secretary of the colonies, in an
article published in the weekly
Deutsche Politik. takes a stand against
the new fatherland party, which he
treats as a harmful ebullition of
wOuld-be patriotism.
"A stream of loyal messages have
been sent to the emperor" he remarks
in the course of his article, "as though
ON word OF demand (some say it was
a word of command). in which Presi-
dent Wilson's answer to the pope is
stigmatized as an attempt to drive a
wedge between the government and
the people, as an effort to SOW discord
and as a proclamation of war on the
Hohenzollerns.
Il have vainly tried Dr. Dernburg
adds, TO find such things anywhere
in President Wilson's note"
The chief aim of the German policy,
Dr. Dernburg said. is that honest Ger
mans. who honestly desire peace, shall
meet equally honest opponents, the
sequel of which meeting will be, he
predicts. that the jingoes and chauvin-
lists of all countries will be elected
from power and a situation created
making possible the conclusion of a
just and durable peace.

We shall bomb Germany with COM

is quoted in the London press as de-
claring to London crowd in promis
ing it that Great Britain would soon

raids on London.
The French reprisals are already
under way. French airmen dropped
bombs on the town of Baden, some
ffty-fye miles beyond the French
frontier More than seven tons of
bombs also were dropped on various
military Objectives in German-held
territory.
The Paris statement follows:
In reprisal for the bOmbardment Of

Evangelist Osborn Stirring His Hear
ers and Drawing Them From In
creasing Distances-BOOster Chorus
Tonight.

The drummer evangelist" is making
a deep impression upon those who have
heard him and is drawing people every
night from increasing distances. Peo-

in the country to hear him, and some
from as far away as Aberdeen and
Roy
Osborn is unlike any other man who
has ever been in American Falls, or
for that matter, any other evangelist
in the United States. He has some
thing of the Lincoln gift of sermoniz-
ing through stories; something Of the
Billy Sunday faculty of hurting cpl
grams, something of the Moody ap-
peal to ones better nature, and some-
thing of the sarcasm of Sam Small.
From the midst of a story will flash
an epigram. denunciation or an ap-
peal mat seems in no wise connected
with the story, but in the end the con-
nection is clear He changes rapidly
from the sublime to the ridiculous,
from tears to smiles, driving his points
home like a blow from a brick, but
supplying a balm for every wound in
flicted.
Some of Osborn's trite expressions
are as follows:
Some peoples religion is like a wo-
man with two handkerchiefs; one for
show and one for blow"
rs not being a Mason being pret-
ty good Christian? I've seen Masons
just as drunk as Methodists, and be-
ing either does not make a Christian.
St John, 3:7. Ye must be born again. "
"A razor-back hog is balanced by
lifting him by his ears; likewise a
gOssiper."
Some people bark at the Bible and
so does a dog at the moon that shines
for him, but it shines on"
There are no inidels in hell.
They've all been converted, like Dives. "
"Sectarianism will not get one even
a nights lodging in heaven"
If you act like the devil you'll look
like him-dOwn yonder."
The intellectual fool is the big
- gest fool we have to deal with
Cards were made for King Charles,
the crazy king of France, to amuse
him; and fools are still using them.
IF the women quit dancing the men
will quit. I'd rather do my hugging
in private"
Some people say we shouldn't have
so much levity in the pulpit. Go it
you old hypocrite, you'd steal chick
ems"
The meetings are growing in inter-
est, with larger congregations every
night Cottage prayer meetings will
be begun next Tuesday. Rev. CLANCY
of Blackfoot will come to assist.
