American Army Aviator
Meets Death in Battle

New York, April 19.-Word that
Captain James E. Miller, United
States aviation corps, previously re-
ported missing, was killed in action
in France, was received here today
from the War department by the
Columbia Trust company, of which he
was vice president. Captain Miller
three weeks ago, was seen to drop
with his machine behind the German
lines. Miller joined the flying serv-
ice in June, 1917. He was SO years
old

Minister Refuses to
Sing National Anthem;
Mob Burns His Church

Berkeley, Cal, April 1e.-The
Church of the Living God, a large
canvas tabernacle, used by a re-
ligious sect here, was burned down
tonight by a mob of men and boys
because the pastor, Josiah Sykee,
and his elders refused to lower the
American flag at sundown and join
with the congregation in singing
the national anthem.

MOVEMENT DIFFICULT.
Correspondents at the front tell of
the miserable weather-cold and rain
and sleet--to add to the already
known bad condition of the lowlands,
which are virtually quagmires.
through which the men and materials
can be moved only with difficulty.
The opposing ahmies have been
fighting in a fiat, marshy country
since April 9, and this ground, diff
cult enough under normal conditions.
has been made still more nearly inn
passable by rains and the tempest of
high explosive shells that has blasted
roads and fields.
GERMAN THRUST FOILED.
1t appears, however, that the Ger.s
mans have not repeated their thrust
along the line running north Of Beth
une, where they met with san
culinary repulse Wednesday and
Thursday. They employed about 75.-
600 men along a line variously re-
ported to be from six to 10 miles in
length, but gained little or no ground.
The La Bassee canal front is still in
British hands and bridges flung
across it by the Teutons have been
swept away by artillery fire.
French Advance Halts.
The blow aimed by the French at
the very apex of the German lines in
Picardy, in front of Amiens, appar-
ently has not been followed up. 1T
is doubted that the allied counter of
fensive, when it comes, will be
launched in this sector. Advices from
France would seem to indicate that
the blow would be struck at another
part of the hattie line.
The southern end OF the battle
front in France has shared in the
quiet that has enveloped other sec
tors of the line. Only raidihg opera
tons and artillery duels are reported
there.
Italy Sends Reinforcements.
An interesting dispatch tells of the
moving of Italian troops to France.
This would point to one of two de-
velopments. Either the Italian front ii
in no particular danger at the present
moment or else General Foch is call
ing every available man to swell the
army he will huri at the foe when
the moment for battle arrives. 1t is
probable, however, that the force OF
Italians en- route to the French front
is comparatively small.
The German torpedo boat fotilla
has been active along the coast secs
tor of the battle line and has sheiled
Belgian positions there. This may
foreshadow a German attempt to
drive westward through Nieuport.
Paris Again Shelled.i
Long-range bombardment of Paris.
had ceased for two days and it was
hoped that the French had found the
exact location of heavy German gun
and put it out of action This hope,
however, failed when the lombard
ment of Parisewas resumed Friday
evening.
The Turks are continuing their adj
vance and are approaching Kars, the
leading city of one of the districts
given to Turkey under the Brest-
Litovsk treaty. They are already
in>control OF Batum, where they cap
tured 3,l00 men, of whom 900 were
officers.
In Italy, Macedonia, Palestipe and
Mesopotamia no recent fighting has
been reported.
