IT IS A PERFECT MARVEL.
1t is Glorious to Have Share in the
Great Thing Uncle Sam is Doing
Lieut.. Russell Enthusiastic.

In a letter written May 31st by
Lieut.. J. M. Russell to his parents,
he expresses great admiration for the
care taken by the United States Gov
ernment in transporting the soldiers
across the Atlantic. He says that this
war is simply too great thing to be
described. The nearer one gets to
the scene of the conflict the more he
becomes enthused and wants to get
at his share in the fight. The lieu
tenant describes what Uncle Sam has
done as a perfect marvel and says
that it is glorious to have a share !r
it even though it is small: He SAID
he was in perfect health. The danger
in crossing overseas has been reduced
to a very negligible quantity, but
Lieut.. Russell writes that there IS not
the slightest relaxation Of watchtul-
ness and care. He saw no submarines
though while passing Though the
danger zone every bit Of sea surface
was kept under r1i]lute observation on
all sides. The weather was deal and
their ship had a splendid voyage.

AMERICANS
CARRY ON
They Show Germans a Thing or
Two Again-Capture a Position
and Inflict Heavy Losses on
Enemy-West Bank of Piave
Clear of Austrian.

This mornings press summary
gives the following:
While the Italians have been busi-
" engaged in cleaning up the Piave
battle front, gathering together the
spoils of war and making struggling
Austrians prisoners, the Americans
stationed in the Belleau wood. north
west of Chateau Thierry, have been
devoting their time to showing the
Germans again the fighting timber Of
which they are made,
In the demonstration The Americans
GAINED control of the wood in it's en-
t.raty, advanced their position ma
teriaily northwest OF the wood and
made prisoners Of 264 Of the eHeny,
in addition to i0fl.ctin, heavy loss IS
in men ard killed o. wounded.
Tie attacl, was launched Tuesday
night with the purpose of driving out
the few remaining nests of Germans
in The wood-nests from which enc
NV 1arties constantly were harrass-
iay the Americans. IL followed hur-
..Lane of artillery fire, the intensity
OF which stunned even those Of the
Germ ars who previously had gone
throu n the terrific drum fires Of the
British ard French. The hammering
# re ~urs was kept up for thirteen
hours before the infantry set out tc
accomplish it's task and The havoc
wrought by the American shells
many of them of high explosives was
evident from the number of enemy
dead strewing the ground and the
state of general demolition that pre-.
vailed.
The capture Of Belleau wood is of
considerable strategic Importance
owing to the fact that from it the
Germans had been able to rake the al
lied positions on all sides of it with
their artillery. Its eastern and north
ern edges also command the rail
roads behind the German lines run
ming to Shateau Thierry.
All the positions still held by the
Austrians on the lowet Piave, consti.
tuting the Sapo Sile bridge head, have
now been takeHr,by the Italians and
the entire western bank of the Piave
is clear of the enemy.
Nearly 400 prisoners were taken II
the enterprise. Aside from this fight.
ing there has been little activity in the
southern section of the Italian thea.
my on the eastern bank of the Piave
has ended at last for the time being
In the mountains heavy commandments
are in progress in various sectors
and intense aerial operations are go
ing on along the entire front. This
Rome war Office asserts that all ths
artillery lost by the Italians to the
Austrians in the initial stage Of ths
fighting has been recaptured.
On the battle front in France ane
Flanders, the operations continue o.
a minor character. The British, bOti
in Flanders and Picardy have carried
out successfully attacks against the
Germans and taken further prisoners
and machine guns. Likewise th'
French northwest of Montdider have
raided an enemy position, inflicted
losses and taken prisoners
