many's unprecedented casualties has
not been won; The British line re.
mains unbroken.
Won Hindenburg no longer is ad-
vancing on the wide front of last
week. The fresh German shock
troops used during the past "a hours
have not displayed the same reck-
less impetuosity of the initial attack.
The kaiser's best divisions show evi-
dence of becoming exhausted. The
stamina Of the reinforcements sug-
gests Won Hindenburgs eyailable
supply of cannon fodder may have
fallen to the second and third grade
men.
Nevertheless, von Hindenburg is de-
yeloping a further desperate inten-
ton of trying to break through the
southern part of the British front.
The combat across the Somme river
involves that Most serious conse-
quences for the house Of Hohenzol-
lern. 1t is this southern part of the
present battle front that has been
put under the nominal control of the
crown prince. The loss of prestige
that the Hohenzollern heir suffered
at Verdun evidently must be recover
ed now or not at all The crown
prince of fighting house like the
Hohenzollerns might be fatally hand
icapped as ruler if major check at
the Somme were to follow his defeat
at Verdun.
All the more urgent is it for the
kaiser to press the Somme fighting
because the rival crown prince of Ba-
varia commands the northern half of
the new battle area. For Prussia to
permit Bavaria to make the better
record at this crisis in the affairs of
the Hohenzollerns might be fatal.
The slow progress of the German ad-
vance across the Somme, therefore is
a happy augury for the allies. The
capture Of Bapaume is of secondary
consequence to this. The British
front after the ST. Quentin reverse is
solidly intact in the south
Here is where the greatest blows are
falling and here is the scene fixed if
the British line still holds, for the
house of Hohenzollerns most dtas-
trous defeat.

tions will be fully organized and

meet this proposition even now and
be ready to respond to the call. No

HUNS PROMISE TO
STOP AMERICANS

AMSTERDAM, Sept. 23.-''We
will never let Frenchmen or Amer
leans through here" was the prom
Use given Emperor William by his
troops when he visited the Alsace-
Lorraine front, Sept. 10 and 20, ac-
cording to Karl Rosner, favorite
press agent of the kaiser in a dis
patch to the Lokal Anzeiger
The purpose of the visit was to
thank the troops for having bravely
held out and according to the en-
percr's chronicler, Eat the same time
giving them inspiring words for the
fresh fighting on the threshold of
which we are perhaps standing on
the southwest of the empire"
The emperor first visited the sec
ton between Mulhausen and Colmar.
where ''in sight of the Vosges front,
on whose heights and slopes the Ger
man positions run, and within hear
ing of the dull roaring cannon fire,
Emperor William, conducted by Field
Marshal Duke Albrecht of Wurttem-
burg. the commander in chief of the
army group, went from division to
division. camp to camp, and hospital
to hospital"
Here his majesty" says Rosner,
was again told by his generals. just
as by simple musketeers, that they
will never let the enemy pass.
"The emperor passed along the en-
tire Lorraine front but instead of
visiting stats, he called on small
units, brigades, regiments and bat
talions. 1t is true that the 'hurrah'
feeling of the commencement Of the
war has vanished but everywhere one
meets with the same unshakable and
sure calmness which never for mo-
ment doubts OF a victorious resist
ance."
The correspondent reveals the fact
that the brigade commanded by
Prince Oscar, the emperor's son.
stationed on this front. He says that
Prince Oscar has returned to the
field Notwithstanding the after-affect
of his wounds.

ST. QUENTIN NOW
AT MERCY or ALLIES

LONDON. Sept 25-The village
of Selency Immediately west of St
Quentin has been taken by the Brit
ish according to Field Marshal Haig's
communication issued last night Re
newed counter attacks around Fayet,
northwest of ST. Quentin and east of
Epehy were repulsed by the British,
the Germans suffering heavy casual
ties.
A total of 1000 prisoners and a
large number of machine guns wete
captured yesterday.
Elsewhere on the British front
there has been no great activity, ex-
cept near Inchy, west of Cambria,
where the British lin has been adj
vanced slightly and many of the
enemy have been killed.
Standing on the heights along the
Bulgarian frontier. east of the Var
dar, south of Demirkapu pass, the
Bulgarians are offering stiff resist
ance to allied attempts to advance.
North of the pass the enemy is re
firing to Veles and ii would appear
that this column has been cut off
from its comrades further south. thus
splitting the enemy forces in two.
The Bulgarians fighting on the
frontier west of the Vardar prob
ably are those who fled before the
French, Greek and British around
Lake Dorian.
1t is believed in Paris the allies
will press on up the Vardar river
to Uskub and then swing eastward
and outflank the Bulgarians west of
Strumitsa rather than attempt to get
over hills on the southern frontier.

A special meeting of the township
Red Cross chairmen of the various
auxilaries of the county was held in
the basement of the library building
yesterday afternoon. The purpose or
the gathering was to meet Miss
Eileen Dougherty. field secretary OF
the central division of the Red Cross.
There was a good attendance and an
were greatly interested in the infor-
nation Miss Dougherty was able to
give. She said she was proud to
state that the records Of the Audubon
county chapter revealed that there
were no black marks against 1t,
which puts the society at 100 per
cent.
No committees were appointed as
every branch of the work was fully
organized so the chapter will in the
future continue to do its work as it
has in the past. During the winter
months there will practically be ne
surgical dressing work, but the sew
ing will be much heavier as the RED
Cross will undertake to do much
army sewing. The Home Service de-
partment has been thoroughly organ
lZed and the work will be carried on
under the direction of Miss Mae Me-
Laughlin.
