Weekly Report of Losses Best
in Some Respects Since
Ruthlessness Began.

LONDON, June 5.-The weekly report
of losses Of British merchant vessels in
the submarine campaign will again
show a favorable total when 1t is issued
tomorrow. In some respects the last
week has been the best since unre-
stricted submarine warfare was started.
Last Friday was blank day on the
records that is. no losses Of British
merchantmen occurred. 1t is the nrst
time this has happened for a long
period.
British naval people believe the i'm
provement is cumulative and that there
is not the slightest chance, with the i'm
proved allied organizations. that the
Germans ever will repeat their perform
ance OF the black week when nearly
sixty boats were sunk.
Tho arrival OF American units has
helped in more ways than one. Among
other things II has instilled a friendly
rivalry in the campaign against the SUBJ
marines, stimulating the morale and
adding to the keenness OF the men OF
both fleets.
Progress Of the technique Of the anti
submarine campaign includes more care
full supervision. together with various
vigorous offensive measures which 1t is
impossible to detail In the last week
there have occurred numerous en-
counters, the results Of which have been
entirely satisfactory to the Admiralty
American ships have share or the
credit.
The mate Of the Danish steamer
Odense is quoted by the Exchange Tele'
graph correspondent at Copenhagen as
saying that while she was en- route 10
Denmark the steamer was halted by a
German submarine, which, notwith-
standing compliance with the order to
stop. continued to fire on the defence

were killed.

IF YOU FAILED, REGISTER NOW
Report Circumstances at Once
War Department Advises.

WAsHINGToN. June ANY person
who intended to register but failed TO
do so should Immediately report 10 the
registrar in his precinct, This is the
advice given by the War Department
tonight SO far there Is no arrange
ment for a supplemental registration
day. and there may be none. The PEN
atty OF the law applies specifically, II Is
believed. to those who wilfully fail to
register. so that the presumption neces
sarily will be against any person who
having failed to register corceals II
from the authorities.
II is realized at the War Department
that there are doubtless cases where
unforeseen causes may have prevented
registration despite the intentions OF
the persons TO register.

Every Governor had been asked to
wire direct to the Provost Marshal
General as soon after noon as he was
able TO make a definite statement re-

sages began to come over the wire
rapidly after l o'clock. Invariably they
reported heavy registration early in

was made upon an evident desire
among the young men TO be first at
the polling places.
The spirit OF the young men from
whom the fighting forces are to be se-
lected was evidenced in their attitude
toward question II on the registration
blanks, which asked if exemption was
claimed. In thousands of cases young
men availed themselves Of their righ.

THOMAS EDWARDS ED '! ARDS
 HAS PASSED AWAY

Citizens of Malvern were shocked
 Monday night to hear of the death of
 Thoma, Edwards which occurred about
 2 o'clock, after an illness of less than
 week. MT. Edwards had only recently returned to this city to make his home, after an absence of little more than year.
 1 MT. Edwards had many friends in this city, and was a citizen here for many years, being manager of the Electric Light Co.,, before it was pur- chased the Ark Light and Power Go. This position he held many years, and by his courteous and fair treat ment, won for him, scores of friends among the patrons of the company When the plant was taken over by new people, he left the city, and went to make his home in Brookfeld ,/Mo., and only returned to the city short time ago and again took up his duties as manager of the plant. The an- nouncement that Mr. Edwards had been secured to manage the plant was received with approval by his many friends here, and the public in general, as he was considered capable man, and his many friends were glad to welcome him back to his old job
 i MT. Edwards had only been work ing short time, when he was taken i'll, and from day to day grew rapidly worse, and the case was pronounced as typhoid fever A trained nurse was secured, and everything possible done for him, but all to no avail, and on Monday night he passed away.
 The funeral services are being held this afternoon, conducted by Revs. J. T. Howell and J. w Harrel. Burial is taking place at Oak Ridge cemetery. To the bereaved wife, and other re- latives, this paper desi IS to extend deepest sympathy.

 BOARD OF ASSESSORS
s. H. EMERSON, JOHN BEDDING TON AND D. G. ALLEN. NAMED TO MAKE ASSESSMENT OF WATER AND SEWER DISTRICTS COMMISSIONERS EPORT ADOPTED.

At an adjourned meeting of the City Council Monday night, the first steps toward actual work on the Water and Sewer districts for the city, was taken, when the Council voted unanimously to accept the report of the Commissioners, and the recom- as to the Assessors of the District.
 The Commissioners reported to the Council that they had organized by electing c. E. Mattison, chairman, Emmet Nunn, secretary and E. T.. Bramlitt, treasurer, and the T. N. McCrary Go, as engineers.
 The plans and specifications of the system, and the estimate cost, were submitted by the Commissioners.
 The estimated cost of the Water works system is placed at $73,751. or, and of the sewer at S56, ,4s3.O0 It was explained by the Commissioners that this does not mean the systems will necessarily cost that amount of money, but the figures are placed at these amounts, merely to show that the systems can be built within the bounds of 20a6 of the assessment of the property in the Improvement dis tricts.
 The plans and specifications were filed with City Clerk Lewis Collie, and the Commissioners report was adopted by the Council, and s. H. Emerson, John Reddington and D. c. Allen were elected by the Council as assessors for the districts.
 It is stated that work on the assess ment will be started at once, and will be completed in a short time. When this is done, the assessments must remain on file with the City Clerk for 10 days, after which time, the Com missioners will proceed to advertise for bids and the contract will be let, and the bonds sold.
 A member of the Board of Com missioners expressed the opinion that actual construction work on the Water and Sewer system, will in all proba- bility be started within sixty days. While material has advanced some during the time these improvement districts have been in litigation it is believed that the bonds will be more readily sold, and at better figure than before.
 While this is the first official action of the Council on this matter since 1t was settled in the Courts, the Com missioners have by no means been idle, and have done much preliminary work, which will greatly assist the Assessors, and will mean that the system will be installed much sooner than had they waited until the Council acted to begin their work. Their re- port to the Council was complete in every detail, and showed that had given much time and study to the proposition.
