DADDY LoNe.LEes" LAST NIGHT
Enjoyable Entertainment at Benning-
ton Opera House.

Bennington theatregoers have not
in many months experienced such an
enjoyable treat as the production Of
Jean Webster's comedy. Daddy
Long-Legs," at the opera house last
evening. The comedy itself is thor
oughly clean and wholesome and it
was given last evening by a we'll
balanced and competent company.
The theme OF the ward who falls in
love with her guardian is almost as
old fiction itself but the writer OF
Daddy Long-Legs" has treated it
from new angle that adds world
of pathos to the story.
Last night $ production was wit
Messed by a fairly good sized and rep
resentative audience. Undoubtedly
the attendance would have been even
larger had Bennington people more
generally realized the excellence of
the comedy and the company.

ALLOBJECTlvES GAIN ED

London, Oct. 5-The anticipated re-
newal Of Field Marshal Haig's big of
fensive in Flanders has begun and all
the objectives of the first day have
been own and held. The British for
ces at daylight yesterday swarmed
from their trenches over ground that
had been narrowed by myraids OF
shells from the great array of artillery
and all along the front of more than
eight miles, from south of Tower
Hamlets to the North of Langemarck,
they made notable new gains of ter
rain, inflicted heavy casualties on the
Germans while themselves suffering
slight losses, and took many prison
ers, large numbers of whom gladly
surrendered in order to reach heav-
en- of safety
The attack was delivered with all
the wonted dash of previous often
sives, and swiftly and surely the
British, Notwithstanding heavy coun-
ter-attacks at various points, took
positions that had been marked out
for them, some of them to depth of
more than mile. The main ridge of
the nights running north and south
to the east of Ypres, which affords a
dominating point for the launching
of future attacks, is nearly all in the
hands Of the British, and at several
points the Ostend-Lille railroad now
is within the range of Haigs guns.
More than 5000 German prisoners
had been passed behind the lines
when the latest official communication
concerning The days fighting was sent
and large numbers of others were be-
ing gathered in. Especially bitter
fighting occurred to the east of zonne-
beke, the nearest point of approach
to the desired railway line which con
meet Ostend, Zeebrngge and other
northern points of supply with the
German line to the south. The ef-
forts of the Germans to stay the Brit
ish here were fruitless, however, as
likewise were their efforts further
north, in the region of Poelcapelle,
where the British gained ground to a
depth of about two-thirds of mile.
