SPEAKS IN INTEREST OF
 AMERICAN RED CROSS

The mass meeting called at the court house last night for the pur- pose of more efficiently organizing Nevada county in the campaign to raise our pro rata of $20,000 toward the S1 100000 which has been allotted to Arkansas for the American Red Cross fund, was not attended by as large crowd as was expected, and ninety per cent of them were ladies and children which goes to prove that the people of Prescott are not awake to the dire necessity of raising this amount for the saving of our boys who will shortly leave for the battle front.
 W. A. King of Washington, D. C., field agent for the Red Cross. who addressed our people, did not arrive until 9:30 o'clock, but the time was we'll taken up beforehand by local speakers and music by the band. Col. c. c. Hamby, Judge c. R. Haynie, Dr. John C.. Williams, Hons. W. V. Tomp- kins and T. c. McRae each spoke of the vital need of individual donations from our people to be used in caring for the sick and wounded during the war. They impressed the fact that the present war is war to finish and the Red Cross will play a most important part in saving lives and placing men back on the field or in the trenches, all of which will require millions of American dollars. The man that gives all his money and property to help prosecute the war will still have more than thousands of our young men will have and that is life. Then are you willing to be a tight wad with your money as many lives are being sacrificed for your freedom and the freedom of the world? Let everybody who has money laying in the banks accumu- lating interest, give the committee a check for double the amount he prev iously gave or intended to give. A more noble work can not be found.

GERMANS ATTACK IN
 THE AISNE REGION
Succeed at One Point in Enter. ing French Trenches-Heavy Losses Were Inflicted Upon Attacking Troops.

Paris, June 22.-Heavy attacks by the Germans north of the Aisne have been repulsed by the French troops with severe casualties, according to the cial communication issued to- night. In the attack, which was along a front of about l 1-4 miles, the Germans only at one point suc- ceeded in penetrating the French trenches. The communication says:
 "On the min-des-Dames the bombardment of our positions to the south of Filain and in the region of Braye-en-Laonnois continued up to this morning and was followed by series of very violent attacks on front of more than two kilometres, extending from the west of La Roy ere farm to Epine Chevregny The Germans used large forces, composed of special troops which attacked with stubbornness in spite of the heavy losses which were inflicted on them by our fire.
 "On the greater part of the front attacked the efforts of the enemy were broken and the assaulting waves thrown back into their original tren- ches. We maintained our positions, except in the center, where the enemy after several attempts succeeded in penetrating into salient of our lnie.
 There has been intermittent can- nonading on the remainder of the front"

 Manager Hardy of the Gem Thea ter has booked the million dollar spec tacle Civilization" picture for Tues day. It is the biggest picture ever shown in Prescott.
 Montclair, N. J., was apportioned $5O,0O0 at the beginning of the Red Cross War Fund campaign, and at the end of the first day had tripled it's amount by pledging S177,30O. Rich mond, Va, has also oversubscribed by giving $315,000 when it was asked for only $200,000.
 Do you feel that you have contrib uted as much to the Red Cross as you would have if one of your boys were in the trenches or in the hospital? We feel sure that you haven't. We'll, it may be that you will see that day when your measly sum will be used for that purpose.
 "Civilization," comes with the met ropolitan endorsement of the press, the clergy and the theatre going pub lie as the most vital and impressive offering of that great art, the motion picture. Not to see it is to deny yourself a rare and exhilarating treat. At the Gen Tuesday.
 There will be an all-day singing at Whites Chapel church the first Sun day in July. We will begin singing promptly at 9 o'clock; give way for preaching at II. Dinner on the ground and singing again in the afternoon. You are especially invited to come, bring your song book, your dinner and some one with you.-The Committee.
 The announcement of the Gem Theater for Tuesday is Thos. H. Ince's million dollar spectacle, "Civiliza- tion," which comes to the Gem with the endorsement of the entire metro politan press and public. It is sell dom that the world is treated to such a treat as is in store for local play goers, but in the present instance it is safe to say that everyone will be as pleased as New Workers, who are still fiocking to the Criterion Theater to pay homeage to Producer Ince's genius. It would be folly to attempt synopsis of this great batt'e drama, suffice it to say that you will be as- tonished at the revelations unfolded before your eyes.

American Airn1en VIII Be
Transferred to "San7ies'
Lines Within Three Weeks
Rock Island
Opposed to
Firen1en MOUe

In order to acquaint the business
men of Chekasha with the facts in
the case Of the reported proposed re
noval Of firemen from Chickasha to
El Reno party of Rock Island Off
cials win reach here tomorrow morn
ing for a conference with local men
at the Commercial and Farm bureau
The move affects fifteen firemen
each drawing SIPS a month and most
Of them having families.
The visit Of the officials is the re-
suit Of inquiries which were directed
to them by local merchants upon re.
ceiving word that move was on foot
to remove all these firemen with their
families from Chickasha TO El Reno.
Investigation revealed that this was
in no wise the desire Of the company
but was an independent move initiat
ed by the El Reno lodge OF the Broth
erhood Of Locomotive Firemen and
came about in this manner;
A short while ago the Chickasha
and eI Reno lodges were consolidated
with headquarters at Ei Reno and the
chickaaha lodge abolished. The FL
Reno fisemen, having by far the iarg-
er voting strength, passed resolutions
urging that the company have all fire
men run out Of I1l Reno instead OF out
81 both places. This, il put into eff
feet would force the local firemen to
move 10 El Reno at considerable ex-
pense and Inconvenience in many
cases and would force every passen-
ger engineer out Of here north or re-
turning. to change his fireman at El
Reno. which is not desired by the com
pany
Should this order be placed in effect
there would be no extra engineers or
firemen in Chickasha and should they
be needed they would have to O. =.
from El Reno.
The company, it Is understood, is op.
posed to this change and the party Of
officials who are slated to explain the
situation to the Chickasha business
men will consist Of Assistant General
Manager G. W Rourke, supemntend
ent f II. Reddig, ana Trainmaster
Homer Fairmon.
The hour Of the conference may be
ascertained at the Farm Bureau
