HAWkEYE FARMER
SAVED $4,000 BY
TIMELY ARRESTS
Two Race "Experts" Meet VIC
tim at Excelsior Springs,
Mo-, and Induce Him to
Bet on Fake.

Henry c. Thiessen, retired farmer
of Keystone, Ia, came near falling
victim to a horse race swind1e Sat.
urday morning at Council Bluffs wher
State Agent Jack Farrand and Deputy
Sheriff George Gillaspy, Council
Bluffs, assisted by the Council Bluffs
police arrested A. ]. Matson of Fargo
N. D.. and John Price of St. Joseph
Mo-, a few minutes before Thiessen
was to give them $4,000, which Mat
son and Price claimed he owed them
for money advanced to play the races.
Invests in Bobby"
Thiessen, bachelor of 50 had been
spending a few days at Excelsior
Springs, Mo-, when he met Matson
and Price, who after gaining his conf
dence, persuaded him to invest $10,-
900 on horse named Bobby" sup
posed to have been entered in race
at New Orleans.
Thiessen, who did not have the
cash at the time, told Matson and
Price to put up the money for him,
assuring them that he would obtain
cash from the Keystone bank and re-
imburse them.
Fell for Game.
The alleged swindlers agreed to do
this, but claimed to have been about
$3.50 short of the sum required, so
Thiessen gave them the amount.
Matson and Thiessen stopped at the
Rome hotel in Omaha, arriving there
Friday morning, Price registering at
the Fontenelle. Saturday morning the
three went to Council Bluffs after the
$4,000 and as they entered the bank
all were put under arrest, Thiessen
later being released.
Thiessen's confidence in both Mat
son and Price was so great that it
took fully an hour before he realized
that he was being buncoed.
The alleged Get Rich Quick Wall
nfords" are both held in the county

under false pretense.

COMPARE TALKS
OF Won CAPELLE
AND HITCHCOCK
New York World Calls Speech
Of German Minister Of Marine
Echo Of Nebraska Sen
ator's Address. .
Washington Bureau Of The
Omaha Bee, 1911 q Street.


Washington, Aug. 20.-(Special
Telegram.)-The New York World in
its leading editorial today sees in the
recent speech of Admiral Won Capelle,
the German minister of marine, made
before the main committee of the
Reichstag, in which he belittles the
work of the United States as to
American destroyers, American help
in men and arplanes, a startling SINH
larity with the speech of Senator
Hitchcock, delivered in the senate on
February a.
After quoting copiously from Won
Capelle's speech the World says that
the German minister of marine is
rather more generous towards the
American military program than the
senator from Nebraska. Won Capelle
even for propaganda purposes at
home, is willing to conccde that four
tons Of shipping to a man is enough.
Hitchcock will concede nothing less
than FIVE"
The editorial closes as follows: an
some respects Won Capelle's speech
seems like an echo of the Hitchcock
speech. However, much it may im-
press the German people, the Ameri-
can troops are crossing the ocean in
a steady stream, regardless of German
ministers of marine and senator's from
Nebraska.
"The speech of Won Capelle is, of
course, straight out German propa-
ganda, intended to hearten the Ger
man people, and the Hitchcock speech
was delivered as constructive criti-
cism.' But there is another import
ant difference. Nobody in Washing
ton is proposing to make Admiral Won
Capelle chairman of the foreign re-
lations committee of the United
States senate"

The week went into the whirligig
of time without the administration
candidates declaring themselves

lens had not been shaped up to a
point where a definite announcement

Notwithstanding this tacturnity on
the part of the mayor and others of

that the mayor and Commissioners

complete the administration ticket.

Bluffs Soldier Likes Army
Life at Camp Dauy Crockett

Ernest A. Cottmire, former employe

is making good at Fort Crockett, Gal
weston, Tex. He enlisted in the army
last November and was assigned to
the coast artillery.

READY TO STRIKE BACk.
Against this blow the armies o
six nations are standing together to
day in the battle area--British
French, American, Belgium, Italian
and Portuguese divisions-ready no
only to repel the inevitable attacl
but to strike back when the proper
moment comes. Apparently tht
allies have thrown in only enough O.
their reserves to hold the Germans
conserving their strength as far a:
possible. 1t has been noted, how.
ever, that when the necessity of hold
ing became imperative the holding
power was there.
In the north the enemy, after his
bitter reverse of Thursday and Fri.
day along the Givenchy-St. Venant
line south of the Lys, apparently is
pausing to organize thoroughly for
attacks upon Mount KENNEL, the
dominating point in the ridge zone
which the British are holding firmly
southwest of Ypres.
British Line Restored.
Field Marshal Haig found himself
able to take the aggressive Friday
night and carry out an operation
which deprived the Germans of
even such small gains as they had been
forced to content themselves when
Thursdays battle was over. By this
intensive British action the line as it
stood before Thursdays German at
tack was completely restored.
The British apparently are ex-
pecting some new move by the enemy
in the Arras region and Friday night
British detachments advanced in a
big raiding operation on front of
nearly a mile south of the Scarpe,
near Beaurains, taking prisoners and
capturing machine guns.
A renewed attack here would be
logical proceeding for the Germans,
it would appear, after their failure
to gain ground by striking south
from the Lys salient with the bend
ing back of the British lines south
of La Bassee canal as one of their
presumed objects.
Petain Prepares to Meet Blow.
The French apparently are looking
for a renewal of the German offensive
south of the Somme at no distant
date, as was instanced by this weeks
move OH General Petain's part to
improve his defensive positions along
the Avre, southeast of Amiens. The
French gained the easterly slope of
the heights overlooking the river by
this move and Friday night they had
the best of a accommodating en-
counter, taking some prisoners them
selves.
From Harbin, Manchuria, comes
report that the Bolsheviki authorities
have ordered the munitions and sup
plies that have accumulated at Via

Russia. The entente allies have long

of war fall, into the hands
of the Germans.
