BRITISH TAKE PRISONERS
Period of Inactivity
Nearing an End.

Gen. Pershing, in his communique
OF July 9, made public by the War
Department yesterday. reports "ex-
cessive troop movements" in the
German rear areas opposite many
of the American positions in France.
Another indication of the gather

follen to the Germans and their
hordes will have penetrated far into
the heart of Russia.
II this comes to pass. an allied
army advancing southwark from Kola
Bay would be completely cut off on
all sides except the Arctic Ocean.
With the Firms on the west, the
Germans to the south and the White
Sea to the east, it would have to
cut its way through to Petrograd
or retreat to its base at Kola.
Allies Have FoothoIds.
The present situation with respect
to the allies is illustrated on the
map accompanying this article. II
shows that the allies are not entirely
without some footholds in Russia,
particularly in Siberia.
The Russian people, even the pa
thetic remnant of the Russian army,
are intensely anti-German, and it
is likely that they would rush to the
aid of the allies Immediately the lat
ter assume the aggressive against
the Germans in their torn land.
This would re-enforce the allied
armies to an extent which can only
be guessed at, but undoubtedly this
! factor figures in the plans of the
allies.

Circus Day Draws Crowd
Men Performers Scarce

Monday the Yankee Robinson circus
drew a large crowd 70 the streets of
Miller, to witness the moving mile of
magniicence,' as described by the
graphic adv writer's Of years ago in
referring to the circus parade.
The Robinson show is q small one,
but is considered a good, clean little
circus. The owner, Fred Buchanan, is
an old newspaper man OF Sioux Falls,
and is well known by a number OF
local citizens. The feature this year
of the Robinson show was the trained
animals. There was a noticeable alb
senec OF men performers, perhaps due
to the war.
But one performance, in the after
noon, was given, and the attendance
filed all seating capacity. The price
of tickets included var tax.
