SENATORS SOLVE
MYSTERY Of WHO
TOOK THE HORSE

For so years Senator J. E RaDsdsll,
Of Louisiana, has been looking for
the fellow who stole his fathers
horse.
It was during the civil war. A
raiding party Of Federal soldiers ar
rived at the Ransdell plantation near
Alexandria, and one OF the boys in
blue mounted that spirited horse and
rode him away-as far as the gate.
There the horse threw him of and
broke his leg. Another Yankee caught
the horse and led IL away.
The other day Senator Ransde1
was discussing the war days with
Senator Knute Nelson, Of Minnesota.
II was with the YaLks around
about Alexandra, and"
Here Senator Nelson was inter-
rupted.
Pardon me, but did you steal my
fathers horseg'
mo, but I knew the fellow who
did It happened like this" and
Senator Nelson related the circum-
stances exactly.
But Senator RansieIl has given up
the search for the fellow with the
broken leg. His colleague from the
North settled that quest The adven-
turous youth who rode the horse as
far as the gate has gone to the Big
Reunion. full OF years and dignity.

WASHINGTON, Oct 3.-The Ger man retreat from the Hindenburg line was in full swing today. menaced b. the French. Belgian and British troops at vital points While official reports told only of the evacuation of Armen- t.eTes and Lens. officers here conf dsntly expected that this phase of the withdrawal mast be expanded to the south at once under the threat Of the British to push northeastwarj from their lines between the Scarpe and Cambrai.
 N ith the evacuation of Lens, the en- emy's hold on the great coal region Of northern France is lOOsened. Moth ing has been received as yet to show whether the mines have been fired but it is regarded as certain that dur ing the years of German occupation the great fuel stOrehouses below the sur ace have been worked to the limit.
 As evidence Of the compete conf dence with which the allied leaders lave viewed the future ever since it bCcame certain that the United States would succeed in getting a great army to France for the fighting this year it now is known that reOccupatiOn oi the Lens coal fields has been defi- nitely figured on for some months in computing fuel needs and supplies. Theer are also indications that Am erican coal mining units. equipped with the most up-tO-date machinery. even with the means of fighting pOssi- ble fire in the mines. will be ready to entc- the mines as rapidly as the armies force the enemy beyond them.
 The force that compelled the Ger man leaders to order the evacuation of the Lens-Armentieres front undOu5t- ed v. in military opinion here, was the wholly unexpected rush in Belgium. in which the Belgian army itself. under c- nmand of it's soldier king, formed the spearhead that broke the way for swift expansion of the victory by the French and British forces. There ap- pears to be little doubt now that King Albert will be able to re-establisl his capital on Belgian soil this winter.
 Standing on the flank of the Ger man communication system from Ar mentieres to the immediate vicinity of Courtrai. General Plumers second British army is believed to hold the key to a wide stretch Of territory now in the enemy's hand.
 Extension of the Franco Belgian drive north of General Plumer's line, however. would permit the Britis commander Co move forward to the southeast in a wide encircling move mlnt For that reason it is thought a new drive is to be anticipated on the Roulers front with large French or British forces supplementing the work of the Belgian armies

M,Anoo,s 1IMEIY PLEA

WASHINGTON. Oct. 3-Admonition to the American people not to let the news of allied victories cause a slack ening of efforts in the campaign for the fourth Liberty loan, was expressed tonight by Secretary McAdoo in point ing out that to date subscriptions to- ward the S6,000, 900 total are be- ing received at only about one-half the necessary rate. Although S200,- 900, 900 in subscriptions was reported today, Mir. McAdOo said bond sales must average more than $315, ,00O 900 a day for the nineteen working days if the goal is to be reached. Subscrip- tions up to the close of business last night amounted to S626, 6,506, ,O0O
 Germany is not yet crushed" Sec retary McAdOO said in urging more strenuous efforts. She has millions of strong fighting men still on the bat tie lines and with the invasion of their own territory facing them they will fight even more desperately than heretofore.
 While I am confident that the American people will in the end com plete the enormous task before them, I desire to urge every one not only to subscribe in order that his subscrip- ton may serve as an inspiration to others. The campaign is handicapped by two factors; the first being the unfortunSte spread of influenza throughout many of the eastern states, necessitating the cancellation of dem- onstrations on behalf of the loan. This condition makes it necessary for the people to come forward with their sub scriptions without waiting to be called upon. The second unfavorable factor.
