The sad news of the death of
his nephew, serving as a soldier in
the United States aviation corps,
was received late yesterday after
noon by Charles Goodman, in the
form of telegram announcing
that Benedict H. Goodman had
died in the military hospital at
Washington, d. c., from injuries
received in an accident in France
some time ago. The young soldier
was hurt while exercising and was
operated upon by the American
surgeons at Bordeaux, France.
When able to Withstand the or
deal of sea voyage he was plac-
ed on board returning ship and
brought to the United States,
reaching this country some time
ago. He became a patient at the
military hospital at the national
capitol, and was at first believed
to be entirely out of danger, but
suffered q collapse and died Thurs
day. The body will be brought
to Fort Wayne and will be buried
with militay honors in the Cath
olic cemetery here.
Mr.. Goodman last night receiv-
ed the following dispatch signed
by Surgeon TRULY in command at
Washington:

Benedict II. Goodman, who paid
with his life the last supreme sac
ritice in the service of his country,
was born in Wallace, Kansas, and
was the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Ben
edict Goodman, lifelong residents
and natives of Fort Wayne until
their removal to Holly, Colo. some
years ago. The young soldier was
rs years of age and entered the
service of the United States as a
volunteer in the U. S. aviation ser
vice shortly after the entrance of
America into the war in April,
1917. He was sent to the aviation
training post at Kelly Field, San
Antonio, Texas, and later to Min
cola, L. l. From there he went to
France, being in active service un-
til the accident which disabled
him and finally caused his death.
Private Goodman was nearly six
feet in height and weighed 1870
pounds. OF athletic build and tire
less physique, he made an ideal
soldier, and was in line for promo
ton when injured.
Word was received last night
that his parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Benedict Goodman, who reside in
Holly, Colo, were on their way to
this city and would arrive in Fort
Wayne early on Friday.

The committee having the cam

the great army of patriotic Holly

sible are equally entitled to credit
for victory.

VAR NEWS Summary

The Austrian defeat on the
Italian front, of which mention
was made last week, was SO deci-
sive that they have been content
to abandon the offensive SO vigOr-
Ously launched q few days ago,
and the past week on the Italian
front has been marked only by
counter attacks by the Allied
forces who have not only strength
ened their lines and Strengthened
their front but who have also
gained additional territory and
strategicsl advantage. North of the
Venetian plains mountain posi-
tiOns OF Importance, captured by
the Austrians last January, have
been recaptured by the Italians.
In q brilliant drive in the Chat
eaux Thierry sector, on Monday
night, the Americans captured the
town of Vaux together with jim
portant wooded positions near by.
Nearly 800 prisoners, a number of
machine guns and other war ma
terial were taken.
The Germans, in determined
attack against the British north
west of Albert on Monday, suffered
heavy losses and succeeded in gain
ing q fOothold in an Allied trench
at only one point.
As these lines are written a de
termined attack by the Huns is
expected hourly at some point on
the western front. German activity
in the vicinity of Chateaux Thier-
ry leads to the belief that that
sector, defended by the American
forces. win be the point of at
tack.
To the toll of helpless women
and children who have paid with
their lives the price of German
frightfulness there can now be
added the victims of a British hos
pital ship sunk by submarine
without warning on June 9th.
The first American troops arriv-
ed in Italy last Friday.

nouncing and later confirming the

that the reports of assassination
are without foundation and that
the former Gar still lives. TIE
