PETROGRAD, July ll.-Russia is
ringing with the latest name OF the
hero OF the war, Lieut.. Gen. l., g. kor
niloif, victor Of Galicia, whose aston
ishing feat first proved that the new
advance is no mere flash in the pan.
General Korniloii is the most daring,

Wins Fame In Japanese War
Next General Kornioff was an officer
in the guards and being penniesS, he
was obtained to serve in Turkestan. In
the. Japanese war he received the rank
of colonel and entrusted with des-
pcrate miSsion--tllat OF covering the re-
treat from Mukden OF one Of Cen
cral kuropatkin's scattered armies. 1t
was executed with such resolution and
skill he was given the ST George cross.
Later he travelled all through Turkestan,
the Caucasus and Europe, studying, OBJ
serving and writing invaluable books
on Turkestan and the countries OF CEN
lfdl ASIA.
Amazing to strangers is his gilt for
languages, for he speaks not only all
European but also Persian, Chinese and
every dialect OF central Asia. At the
outbreak of the great war he was in
command OF the forty-eighth division,
once called "Souvrofi's," now Korni-
lofts. In Galicia in 1915 he repeated
the Mukden feat, covering under an un-
exampled month-long hail of Austro-
German shells wherein his own force
broke through the encircing foe, but
he himself was wounded and taken
prisoner by the Austrians. The enemy
press related that their generals were
so impressed with General korniloffs
accomplishments and noble bearing. that
the return of his sword showed greater
honor TO RuSsia's commander than to
their own victorious commander. His
restless spirit did not long stand cap

CAVALRY HORSES DYING
FROM A STRANGE DIESEASE
IN REGIONS OF FRANCE

TOULOUSE, France, June 30.-Cav.
airy horses have been dying in large
numbers from a mysterious disease in
different regions Of the south OF
France. The mortality has reached SO
per cent to 70 per cent of new con
tingents arriving at Toulouse, Abb
Bordeaux, Narbonne and Perpiignan
Horses apparently sound and we'll
when they are unloaded from the cars
die so soon after being stabbed that ii
is impossible to treat them. This sit
uation dates from 1914, soon after the
declaration of war. The mortality was
greatest in the spring Of 1915 and it is
still alarming.
Horse dealers and veterinaries OF
Toulouse have been unable to account
for this strange epidemic Some vet
erinaries assume that it is an infec-
tious Influenza; others suspect that a
subtle means of slow poisoning is prac-
tised on the animals while en- route
from the farm to the cavalry depot.
