SINGULAR COMBINATION.

A singular combination of names
Is to be found on the registry list
of the Sixth voting district In a
two tenement house in Grand street
the voters registered are named Love
and Lovejoy, while the adjoining
house is occupied by a family nam
ed Joy. Although none Of the fam
lilies are related the similarity of
names Is such as to cause confusion.
The General Registrars suspected
design on the part Of some Of the
Of the three families in
causing such an assembly Of closely
related names but found on making
inquiry that the residence of the fam
lilies in adjoining tenements is mere
ly a coincidence.

attributable solely to Thomas H. lnce'

GEN, HAIG PREPARING FOR MO-
MENTOUS ATTACK.

LONDON, July PA battle of mo-
mentous proportions is believed to be
impending on the west front near the
coast between the British and Ger
mans. Indications are that the former
will be on the aggressive.
Some military critics look for the
greatest British drive yet undertaken,
with the dual object of relieving the
French, under constant hard pressure
from the crown prince, and the Rus
slams, who are faced by disaster.
The Berlin war office announced to-
day that an artillery battle Of unpre-
cedented fury is raging today and to-
night in Flanders. Sir Douglas Haig's
report only told of the capture OF
thirty Germans in successful raids
last night.
There have been many indications
in the last few days, however, that
the British high command is putting
the finishing touches on the greatest
military effort yet made in the west.
Aerial reconnaissance has been ex-
tremely lively and the daily raids
we're taken as "feelers" to test the
strength of the opposing line and de-
termine the numerical disposition.
The Ypres salient is expected to b'
the chief scene of the battle.
The crown prince continued toda!
in his harassing tactics against tn
French, but without success. Attaci
after attack was launched north o
the Aisne, first northwest of Bray
en-Laonnois, then Cerny and the Il
front of Craonne. Nowhere did tn
Teuton storming columns make an
impression upon the French lines.
In Sne Of their most furious as
saults, the shock troops" were caugh
in the fire of the "seventy-fves.
Fearful slaughter resulted. Shatter
ed. decimated, the Teutons fled bacl
to their own lines.

We came through in good shape, TAX
Us few days longer than it should.
When we got down in California to
place called Williams, we saw wild
reese by the thousands in the grain
fields. Ny wife wanted me to get one
