(By International News Service.)

(By International News Service.)
With his drives between the Disc and the Asne
rivers and between the Ancre and the Scarpe riv
ers, under full Roadway, General FOch has renewed
his Picardy offensive the British attacking between
the Somme and Albert, and the French launching
forward again in the Lassigny sector.
The combined attack along front which COW
ers in the aggregate upward of IS miles has shak
the German lines all the way from Rheims to the
coast.
In fact, military commentators see signs Of a
possible withdrawal of the enemy from advanced
sectors as far south as the Swiss border.
The capture of Lassigny by the French, an
nounced BY the French war office late last night
makes further retirement between Rove and
NOyon a f0regOne conclusion.
A further advance of the British in the of
the renewed attack on the SOmme would cause the
Albert sector to collapse and force the German line
in that region back to Peronne, and further north
to the Loryille river.

HOPKINTON MAN MEETS DEATH
IN RIVER.
Crock Island Daily Union.)

(ROCk lSldnQ Dally UulOn.)
The body of Thomas c. Carson, of
Hopkinton, Iowa, was found floating
in the river at the ferry landing at
about 10 o'clock Saturday morning,
and was taken out of the river by
Vincent A. Murphy, city electrician
The body was taken to the Wheelan
undertaking rooms on orders from
Coroner John G.. Miller, and an in
quest over the remains was held on
Saturday evening.
When the body was brought to the
undertaking rooms and the clothing
searched, there was found an identi-
fication card in bill fold. which gave
the name and his address at All
Bratnober street, Waterloo, Iowa. The
address of his mother, Mrs. T. C. Car
son, at Hopkinton, Iowa, was also
given, and there was found a regis
tration card in the national army
which showed that he had registered
at Omaha, Nebr., some examination
blanks that showed he had qualified
as fireman and brakeman on the
Canadian Pacific railroad. There was
also found a baggage check dated
at Cedar Rapids, March 5, and $11.65
in cash.
Parents Notified.
Coroner Miller got into commune
cation with the mother at Hopkinton,
Iowa, and found that the parents
lived there, who identified the body
from description and from the con-
tents of his pockets. The father came
to Rock Island late on Saturday eve
ming to identify and claim the body.
An inquest was held on Saturday
evening and the jury returned YER
dict of death from drowning.
There were no marks of violence
on the body and the fact that cash
was found in the pockets indicated
there had been no robbery. The body
had been in the water only a few
days and just how the man came to
his death will probably never be
known. but it is supposed he either
fell or wandered into the river acct
dentally near here and that there was
no foul play.
The father indicated that the body
would be shipped to the home in Iowa
on Monday morning for burial
Thomas Carson was about % years
of age, had worked on the railroads
and at other work for some time and
probably came here to seek employ
ment

in the spring the shops will be over
crowded, and as material is difficult
to obtain, many farmers are likely to
suffer from loss of very valuable time
in waiting on repairs.
If they will put their machinery in
the shop at this time, they will have
a much better chance of having it
ready when the time comes to go to
work in the spring.
This warning is issued in view of
present conditions and prospects Of
worse conditions in the future due
to scarcity of materials and over
crowding of shops.

This is a period when the shops

the best time to do this. Just as soon
