BOY PRISONERS TAKEN ON THE FLANDER FRONT Large Number of German Troops are Now the the Eighteen-Nineteen
 Classes PRISONERS SUFFERING Officers Assert That the Father|and's Downfall Is Certain-Battle
 In Sea of Mud

BRITISH FRONT IN FRANCE AND BELGIUM, Aug. 2.-(By the Associated Press) s)-The Prussians, Bavarians and Saxons included in the prisoners captured by the AL lies in the Flanders battles, are ex- tremely dejected. Veteran non- commissioned officers are scarce. Large numbers of the troops are from the eighteen and nineteen class and are raw recruits. The majority of the prisoners are mis- erable and a sorry looking bunch. Many of the prisoners are suffering internal complaints caused by ex- posture and a great majority are suffering from hunger.
 Few of the prisoners have any hopes that Germany will win the war. One officer said the Father lands downfall is near, passing his opinion on the scarcity of men. The boyish faces in the prison cages certainly indicate the lack of old CT human material.

WEATHER CONTINUES BAD.

PARIS, August 2.-The weather continues bad in Belgium. The tor rential rains which fell Tuesday and Wednesday transformed the battle grounds in Flanders into a sea of mud and forced a comparative lull in the operations. This morning the sun shone for time and the heavy guns began to bark again.
 Several counter attacks during the night were repulsed. Several trench es were shelled today but the move ment of big guns to the front, in spite of the bad weather, is waited. Shrapnel and high explosives are being poured into the ranks of the Germans.
 The aeroplanes on both sides are helpless during the heavy rain to assist the artillery.

PERSHING'S BROTHER
WILL Be AT HIS SIDE
He Says the Army That viii
Be Under His Brother Is
Finest In World

Los Angeles. Cal, June 1l.-Not au-
diences of honor with the king nor the
homage of England S people can com
pensate Major General John ]. Per
shinp, commander of American troops,
soon to fight in France, for the loneli-
ness he feels without his brother. Nor
will war separate them.
So strong is the bond between the
two that James +. Pershing, Cincinna-
ii business man, win leave here today
for San Francisco ON the first lap of
journey that will eventually take him
to the side of his fighting brother
f" somewhere in France.
Not a fighting man, unversed in mil
itarr technique, James Pershing will 90
to the war front to be the opal - of his
brother during the period OF the war.
Pershing praised the $4,000 men who
will form General pershing' first force
as ''the flower of the American army -
81 watched them in training at the
border, he declared, ''and the inter-
sive training they had then viii aston
ish the French and British soldiers. -
Pershing was with the general at the
border last summer.

AND OWNERS
MAY HAVE Open WAR
Roar Goes Up When Coast
Magnates Announce Re-
ductiOn of Salaries

San Francisco, June 11.-A loud roar
arose from Coast league ball players to-
day following publication of the an
nouncement by individual magnates
that salaries would be cut beginning
June Is.
Henry Berry, Seal owner, has not
made an announcement yet, but is un-
derstood to be working out details of
his retrenchment plan before formally
advising his players. The Portland
players have already been notified.
Portland adviees stated that Salt
Lake and Portland players met in the
latter city and voted TO resist any sal
airy cut, despite statements of mag
mates that ALI who decline reductions
will be released. Whether such drastic
action will actually be taken, however,
is doubtful.
AL Baum, president of the league, re-
mains silent regarding the matter, pre-
terring to let individual owners make
the announcement. The owners them
selves will decide how much the reduc.
tions will be. Owner Darmody of Yer
non, has announced that no player get
ting less than $3.50 will be reduced and
that no cut will exceed 10 per cent.
Many fans predict trouble before the
proposed adjustment is completed. The
owners say the war situation and the
new taxes make the retrenchments alb
solutely necessary.

Crowds Attending at
First Congregational

Yesterday will ever be remembered as
a red letter day in the history of the
First Congregational church and more
people attended the services than at any
time in the So years the church has been
organized. An excellent program was
rendered by the members of the primary
department under the capable leader
ship of Miss Cora Talkington. The
exercises We're in charge of the superin-
tendent of the Sunday school, w. T.,
Staley. At II O'Clock Charles Forbes
Taylor preached as able sermon as has
ever been heard in Salem on the sub
ject, "The Shepherd Paslm." " At $3.50
the church was crowded again when he
spoke ON "'Some of the Silliest Things 1
Have Ever Heard. =" The evening serv-
ice was scheduled to begin at 1880 but
as early as clock the ushers were re-
luctantly obliged to turn people away
and the service began at 7:15, every
available bit of room in the church be-
ing occupied at that time. The boy
preacher proved himself a master of
large assemblies and he soon had his
audience under perfect control and he
made them sing and laugh just as he
pleased. He preached an able and pow
erful sermon on the subject, "The Law
That Never Changes" Governor
Withycombe was an interested listener
last evening. Charles Taylor, the faith
er of the boy, declared last night that
for the past so years he has been hold
ing meetings in all parts of Europe
Canada and the United States but in all
his travels he had never seen prettier
place than Salem.
The meetings will be continued every
night at 7:45 during this week except
Saturday Tonight the boy preacher
will speak on the subject, "What Be
