NEW SUGAR RATlONS
TWO POUNDS MONTHLY
Reduction Aug. Necessary to Keep
Soldiers in Sweets.

Washington, July 25.-The Ameri-
can public was asked by the food ad-
mintstration today to go on sugar ra-
ton of two pounds per capita monthly
beginning August 1, to meet a world
shortage in this commodity and to care
for immediate demands of the allies
and American military forces. The
American public at present is on a
three pounds per capita ration month
y, under a request issued by the food
administration month ago. House
hold rationing will be voluntary at
present, but public eating places will
be required to observe new regulations
effective August l, permitting the uuse
of two pounds of sugar for every
ninety meals served, instead of three
pounds under existing regulations.
Unless the consumption of sugar is
reduced both by householders and the
public generally, the food administra-
ton gave warning today, supplies for
Belgium, the Red Cross, Y. NJ. C. A,
Knights of Columbus. Salvation Army
and other organizations working for
the welfare of American military
forces in Europe cannot be maintained.
To assure equitable distribution of
the sugar the American public is TO
be allowed the food administration has
worked out a scheme of ALLEGATION to
the states based on population and the
needs of sugar using Industries in the
states. Each tate food administrator
will have charfe of distribution in his
state.

HONoRS By GERMANS.

Amsterdam. July 22.-The death
of Quentin Roosevelt is confirmed by
Wolff Bureau message from the
front, according to Berlin dispatch
received here. The message adds

"On Sunday, July IA, an American
squadron of twelve battle-planes was
trying to break through the German
defense over the Marne. In the vio-
lent combat which ensued with seven

A GOOD SPEECH.

The following splendid speech was
delivered at Illing's Theatre, Ocean
Springs, Miss, Saturday evening July
13, by Mr.. II. D. Cudaabac. one of the
forceful Four Minute speakers:
when Woodrow Wilson last year
delivered his war message, it was the
voice of America that spoke, and it
was heard around the world. On the
rebound it's echoes were filled with
heartfelt thanks and the numberless
blessings of a grateful people, who
had borne the brunt of this cruel war
for three years, and had held the army
of an inhuman monster, who is trying
to enslave the world.
Also, when those words were spok-
en- every true patriot and one hundred
per cent loyal Americans heart leaped
with pride, and he Immediately
pledged himself to aid and support
his government in every way We
cannot all fight, but we can all be pa
triots and show our patriotism by com
plying with every request made US by
our government, and by conserving in
every way And, with our savings and
means, purchase the different Govern
ment securities and contribute to the
Red Cross and the other organizations
that are assisting our country il. win
ming the war From the days of the
Revolution, this nation was born in
freedom and every war we have en-
gagged in from that time up to the
present has been for freedom and de-
moracy, and we are today fighting for
the freedom of the world.
No one hundred per cent, red
blooded, loyal American wants to see
peace declared until the flags of the
Allies, together with our beloved Stars
and Stripes, float over the palace in
Berlin, and, when that peace is de-
clared, which is sure to come, and God
hasten the day, methinks can see the
return of those heralding anegls, as of
old, and again hear those glorious
words, GLORY to God in the highest
and on earth peace, good will toward
men,"

A story of the age-old call of youth
to youth will be found at the Warfield
and Eureka theatres next Tuesday
when the j. Stuart Blackton Para
mount photoplay, wild Youth" will
be shown. "Wild Youth" is an adap-
tation of Sir Gilbert Parker's famous
book by that name and has been
pcturized and personally directed by
Mr.. Blockton himself. The story deals
with the love of young rancher for
the girl wife of crusty old neighbor,
the latter role being taken by the
inimitable Theodore Roberts. The
old husband is murdered and for
time the dark shadow of suspicion
points to the girl wife and her young
events prove that an
other agent brought about his end.
The photography which is by Paul
Perry, adds greatly to the charm of
the picture and the outdoor scenes,
filmed in Sunny California, will be
greatly appreciated.

HUN LOSS 100000; $4,000
INFLICTED BY AMERICANS.
Prisoners Alone Number 1000, and
Lists Of Dead and Wounded
Are Appalling.

With The American Army On Th'
|Aisne- Marne Front, July 25.-H II
estimated unofficially tonight that the
enemy losses are more than 100000
of which $4,000 were inflicted by the
Americans. The prisoners alone
number over 10000, and the losses II
dead and wounded are appalling.
The French used more armored cars
than usual, and cavalry or mounted
patrols were effectively employed in

Germans to proceed in the orderly

At Dorman, north of the Marne and
east of Chateau Therry, the Germans
counter-attacked, taking the position,
but were promptly driven out They
occupied Treloup, west of Dormans,
and have held II.
Minor advances have been made by
the allies in the woods in that part
of the sector, while further to the
east, south of Rheims, there were ad-
ditional allied successes.
The Americans have occupied Cour-
poll on the road to Fere en- Tardenois.
and the French positions have been
advanced until Oulchy LIE Chateau is
dominated by the guns.
Near Scissors the Germans failed to
hold all their positions, notwithstand-
ing reinforcemnts and their desperate
need.
Towards Scissors there has been in
artillery work and bitter and
fighting. The French and
American soldiers disregarded caution
almost entirely yesterday, advancing
their lines in open order and taking

down machine gun nests. This
brought them into closer contact with |
