RUSSIA STRIKES
POWERFUL BLOW
Great Drive Near StdnisIau Nets
1000 Prisoners.
.HALICz NEARLY SURROUNDED

Muscovites by Sudden Thrust Advance
Eleven Miles Beyond GaIieian Base.
In Addition to Prisoners Great
Number of Guns and Quantity Of
Supplies Are Taken.
London, July 10.-Into the streak of
undercurrent pessimism that befell
the Entente military observers week
ago, bright rays of reinsurance come
sparkling over the cable and radio
from Petrograd. The Russian drive on
Lemberg which stopped last Monday,
day after it's inception, has been re-
sumed with characteristic Muscovite
suddenness and force. It is in full
swing, though now from a new direc-
ton.
Stanislau, a little more than seventy
miles south of the Galician capital, in
the base for the new attacks. Ten
miles to the north lies Halicz, the
town for which, next to Verdun, the
greatest number of men have died and
the reddest rivers of blood have float.
ed in the Unsuitable life-devouring sea-
of this war. Here is what the death
defying Cossacks did in the last TWEEN
ty-four hours:
Big Bag of Prisoners and Booty.
They smashed through the Teuton
wall of fire and steel and penetrated
eleven miles beyond Stanislau, thus
cutting in a wide detour in the rear
of the approaches of Halicz.
They captured one town and four
villages.
They bagged another big load of
prisoners and booty, to wit: 131 Off
GERS, 1000 men, 4S guns, including
IL powerful Skodas; untold machine
gune, bomb throwers and trench NOR
tars.
They reached the river Lukwa, a
little more than eleven miles west of
north in the direction of HalicZ. There
is an infinite menace to the Teutons in
this strategical coup for, if followed
up by further successes, it threatens
to outfank the whole eatern defense
line of the Galician capital.
New Russ Hero Arises.
Incidentally by this smashing sur
prise blow, new national hero has
risen for Russia overnight. The army
which accomplished. this feat is led
by General Korniloff. g.
Berlin Admits Russian Gain.
Berlin, July 10.-The official state
ment issued by the German army
headquarters staff says the Russians
who attacked in eastern Galicia were
brought to a standstill by German re-
serves after the enemy had pressed
back the defenders in the direction of
the wooded heights of Czarnylas.
Take Two Miles French Trenches.
Berlin July 1O.-French trenches on
a front of three and half kilometers
(about two miles, on the Aisne front
have been captured by the Germans,
who took 800 prisoners, the war office
announced.
Report Repulse Of Teutons.
Paris, July 10.-Another attack in
strong force was made by the Ger
mans on the Aisne front, in the re-
gion of the Chemin des Danes, near
Pantheon. The war Office announces
that the attack was without success.
In brilliant counteroffensive the
French recaptured a major part Of the
trenches occupied by the Germans be-
tween Pantheon and Froidmant farm.

POLICE DOGS HELP
IN WAR ON CRIME
saeaeious Animals Go With eluseosts
on Patrol In Outlying Sections.

New York.-New York's police dogs
are having a large part in cleaning up
crime In the Flatbush section of
Brooklyn and In makiSg 1t place
where women may walk the streets
safely late at night without fear of an
noyance. The vigilance and activity
OF the dogs have done much to rid this
coy settlement OF detached houses OF
tramps, idlers and criminals. The dogs
have also done much In Riverdale,
where several were dispatched after
series Of burglaries.
The police department is devoting
considerable time to the serious train
ing Of these dogs with view TO find
ing out to what extent they may be
used In certain lines of police work.
Kennels for the accommodation of
twenty-four dogs have been built at
Foster avenue and Ocean parkway.
two blocks from the Parkville police
station, and a good sized dogs hos
pital has been constructed, In which
the animals when i'll may be isolated
and receive veterinary treatment.
There are twelve full grown Belgian
and German shepherd dogs In the de-
partment, and to these may be added
a litter OF nine German shepherd pup
pies, which arrived at the kennels re-
Gently. The dogs are in charge of
Sergeant Joseph Hickey, who has thir-
teen patrolmen to assist him IN their
handling. A dog is assigned TO each
patrolman. Every night the police go
out to patrol with the animals The
dogs wear large leather muzzles. SO
that they may not bite any one, for
they are powerful enough TO tear Il
man limb from limb.

Overheated Air.

A rise of temperature in the sur
rounding air diminishes the amount Of
oxygen consumed and the amount Of
dioxide discharged. A fall OF tempera-
ture has the opposite effect. In addi-
ton, the overheated air forms a hot
jacket around the body which prevents
the radiation of heat necessary to keep
the body in healthy condition. With
sedentary occupation a temperature
Of from GA to 70 should be maintained
for comfort and health.
