are going at the Heinies in France.
We are not going to wait until the

the fixed objective of $52,750 any
more than our boys stop when they

Bishops First visit Here.

The Right Rev. Bishop Tihen OF
Denver, who presides over the Colo
RADIO diocese, accompanied by Rev.
Father Sebastian of Lamar, held a
special meeting at the Holly Cath
0lic church last Thursday night.
This was the bishop's first visit to
the Holly church. The meeting was
held for confirmation and includ.
ed about 60 communicates. Many
citizens not members of the church
were also in attendance and very
much enjoyed the bishops address.
Two excellent vocal solos were pre-
sented, one by Mayor L. M. Appel
and theo ther by Mrs. H. T. VIII
son.

Had Sunk French Convoy Cruiser
| In European Waters.

New York, Oct. 2.-Tlfe German
submarine which sank the French
cruiser Dupetit Thours in Euro
pean waters Aug. Z, was in turn de-
stroyed by gunfire from an Ameri-
can freight steamship, one of a con
voy of twenty-four steamers which
the French Warship was helping
through the danger zone, it was
learned here today.
According to the report the at
tack took place at dusk. The cruis-
er was steaming about 1000 yards
in advance of the convoy which the
American ship led. Those aboard
the American vessel heard three ex-
plosions in succession and saw the
cruiser settle in the water.

ginning OF the end of the present
world war struggle:
BULGARIA - Armies in rOut.
Bulgaria asks for armistice, looking
to quick peace. French general re-
fuses to stop fighting.
AMERICANS - Pershing's army
on Champagne front plunges for
ward seven miles, captures twelve
towns and 5000 prisoners.
FRENCH-Brilliant attacks by
General Petain carry formidable
Hun positions between Suippe riv-
er and ArgOnne forest to depth OF
three miles: 1000 prisOnesr taken.
BRITISH-Field Marshal Haig
sweeps ahead ON thirty-mile front
south of Sensee river, threatening
both Cambria and st. Quentin.
/. Cerbians and French
advance 55 miles, capture Ishtib
and other important points and
advance on Uskub, main supply
base of Bulgarians.
TURKS-Turkish army in Pal

LAFAYETTE COLLEGE.

EAsroN. Pa, Nov. 9.--A series of
three interesting lectures to be given at
Lafayette College in the course OF the
next two weeks has been arranged by the
committee on public lectures. On Mon
day evening. November IL. DR.. Edgar j.
Banks will give his lecture on Down
the River Tigris" On Thursday eve
ming, the l4th, Prof. William S, Meers
u the faculty of Princeton University
will speak on Current Events" and on
Monday evening. the 18th Hamilton
Holt. the editor OF the Independent. will
speak on IA subject to be announced
later
After several conferences between the
faculty and the managing board OF the
Lafayette, the weekly publication of the
college, II has been decided to suspend
publication indefinitely. But two of the
editorial staff remain In college, and no
one that has been connected with the
business end OF the paper. These facts
together with the time consumed by the
academic and military schedules and the
short tenure of the men at college under
the present system. made such a decision
appear advisable.
During the past week in answer to a
military order forty members of the La
fayette s. A T. c. were sent to the Of
ficers' training school at Camp Zachary
Taylor. Louisville, Ky. Among these
forty were the manager and eight mem
bers of the football squad, seven mem
bers of the varsity track and field squad
and several OF the best students at the
college. The men were selected on a
competitive basis by Capt. Parker. the
commandant at Camp Lafayette.
