Sun Eclipse'Is
Postponed For
Just One Hour

DENVER Colo, May 24-The total
eclipse OF the sun forecast to occur on
June 8, has been postponed for one
hour This is not the result of'an error
m the calculations OF the astronomers,
nor is il due to an order by modern
Joshua that the sun stand still, but
is chargeable TO the operations OF the
daylight saving law as a result OF which
the clocks throughout the United States
were set forward an hour on March 81
In consequence the eclipse will begin
in Denver at Alp p, m, will become
total at S.22 p M, will pass from to-
tality at 5:2I p m, and will end at
6.27 The same variation in the hours
OF the eclipse viii prevail throughout

This change in hours will not affect
the astronomers, however, as their
clocks still are adjusted TO standard
sun time.
Preparations for observing the
eclipse. the first total eclipse OF the sun
visible in the United States since 1900
and the last until 1923, are going ahead

BRITISH LINE is BENT
BUT 1T is NOT BROKEN
London Paper Says German Chances
for Success Grow Less With Every
Hour That Passes.

London, March 2S.-The London
evening papers take consolation in
the fact that the Germans thus far
have failed to break the British lines
or force a wedge between the Brit
ish and French armies and in the
news from France that the gaps have
been filed with local reserves. while
the strategical reserves remain in
tact for their own special purpose.
The Standard says:
After five days of fighting the
British line has gone back almost to
the limits of the Somme battlefield
but, though il is elastic. il is not
brittle, ii is bent. but not broken"
The Globe says:
The Germans have failed TO
thrust so deeply into the British line
as to make reunion OF the fssure
impossible and TO defeat the separat-
ed masses in detail. And with every
hour the German chances grow less. -

Chicago. March 2S.-A petition to
set aside the first will of the late
James G. King has been filed in the
probate court. il became known to-
day, wherein Marcy C. Melvin seeks
to gain probate of a second will
which CASTOR b. Means claims to
have discovered. The first will was
made in 1901 and the latter docu-
ment in 1905. Hearing of the petit
ton has been deferred until May l6.
An endowment of 100000 was
provided in the first will for the
James G. King home for old men and
comparatively small sum was be-
queathed TO Mrs. Maude King, the
widow, whose death near Concord.

second will leaves the bulk of the s3.-
100000 estate to Mrs. King and

All-Day Battle on Both Sides
River Scarpe Cost Huns
Heavily.
ARRAS is CHIEF CENTER
Germans Enter DermancOurt TO-.
Second Time and for Second
Time are Driven Out-Heavy
Fighting Continues.

London, March 2S.-After an all
day battle north and south of the
Scarpe, with Arras as the chief CEN
ter, the British forces have beaten
cff the Germans, with heavy losses to
the enemy, according to the report
from Field Marshal Haig tonight.
The text of the statement says:
Heavy fighting occurred during
the day along the whole British line.
from southeast of the Somme to
northeast of Arras, a battle front OF
some 55 miles.
This morning, after an intense
enemy bombardment and covered by
cloud of smoke, the enemy opened
a fresh attack in great strength on a
wide front south and north of the
Scarpe. At the same time a series of
partial attacks was delivered by him
along our line southwark to the
Somme.
I'm the new sector of battle, east
of Arras, the enemy succeeded in
forcing his way through our outpost
line, and hard fighting has been pro-
ceeding all day in our battle posi-
tions Here, all the enemy's assaults
have been repulsed with heavy loss
to him.
''Fierce fighting is still taking
place south of the Scarpe.
"At Boyelles, Moyenneville. Alb
lainzeville. Bucquoy and Puisieus
our troops also have been repeatedly
attacked and have beaten off a num-
ber of determined assaults. At Der
nancourt the enemy succeeded in
forcing his way for the second time
into the village, but was driven out
once more by our counter attack,
with the loss of many killed or taken
prisoner.
South of the Somme. our troops
have been fiercely engaged all day in
the neighborhood of Arvillers, Vrely
and Hamel. Different Localities have
changed hands frequently in bitter
fighting, but our positions have been
maintained. Heavy fighting continues
in this sector also"

GERMANS FAIL TO
BREAK THE LINES
NEARLY TWO-THIRDS OF
HUN RESERVE ENGAGED
Eighty-Five Divisions, or 1.215,OOO
Men, Out of Total of 100000
On the Front.

London, March 2S.-The CORES
pondent of the Daily Mail at British
headquarters in France, says that
nearly two-thirds of the entire stra-
tegic reserve of the German army
now has been thrown into the fierce
and vigorously continued attack.
This German reserve" he adds.
consisted of IS divisions, totalling
1.275,000 men, out of a total num-
ber now reaching not far short of
200 divisions, or possibly 5000. 900
men, which they have upon the wes-
tern front. After the first day 33 OF
these divisions were put into the
battle. On the third day another 21
are known TO have taken part. Since
then they must have drawn upon the
reserve for a few more divisions.
1T is, therefore, clear that We
have been struggling with the whole
available strength of the German
army, and the marvel is that our
soldiers have held out so obstinately
and steadily against odds so heavily
against them"
