ter Of the salient continues, and
the important salient of Fere-en->
Tardenois is now within three
and one-half miles of the allies
line, and under constant she'll
fire. ="
The most striking advance
since last Wednesday which Cen
eral March noted was by the
British forces just west of
Rheims. This advance of a mile
and a half on a four mile front,
he said, marked a special source
of danger to the enemy, placing
his forces to the south in an
awkward position.
AS a result, General March
said, the French already are be-
ginning to advance northward
from the. Marne5 salientsagainst
the forces in the pocket on the
north side of the salient.

for Fargo. the principal plaintiff.
Judbe r. T. Burke appeared on be-
half of Bismarck and a brief was sub

the act which provides that none OF
the revenues received under its pro-
visions may be expended within the
limits of any corporate city. which he
held was purely discriminatory, but
he also attacked the act in its entirety
and the amendment of 1915 classifying

Events big with the fate of nations
have marked the fourth year of the

has been twelve months of alternate
hope and concern for the powers OF
the entente alliance.
1t was an July 2S, 1914, that Austria
declared war on Serbia, beginning
the great struggle. During the past
twelve months there have been oc.
currences that in some aspects have
been of even greater import In their
influence upon the world than those
in the preceding period. Russia's col.
lapse. the Italian defeat last autumn,
the stupendous drives of the Germans
against the allied armies, and the
wonderful defensive operations that
have again and again checked the en-
envy when success for him seemed
near at hand have held the world
breathless. But transcending the sig
nificance any event in the actual thea
tres Of the war, Americas full parti-
cipatf0n in the conflict, involving the
transportation overseas of more than
million men to engage in 1t must
remain for all time the great outstand-
ing feature Of the fourth year OF the
struggle. 1t Is upon America that the
entente is relying for the men and re-
sources to turn the tide.

troops going to Europe had not be.

 There were the soldiers awaiting the orders of their commanders.

Then he suddenly moved forward and there was the light of discovery in his eyes.
