 BERLIN, Via London), July 17. -Eighteen thousand prisoners have been taken by the Germans in the present offensive, according to the claim of the war office in it's re- port from general headquarters to- night.
 "!t is asserted also that thirty seven allied airplanes and two cap tive balloons were shot down Tuesday over the battle front.
 The text of the communication follows:
 "The fighting did not revive un- til evening. We captured prison CTS in reconnoitering thrusts south west of Ypres. South and west of Hebuterne the enemy renewed his attacks unsuccessfuliy.
 "There have been local attacks in the Savieres region and west of Chateau Thierry. q
 Southwest of Courtemont lon the Marne front, west of Chateau Thierry), we pushed our lines for ward as far as the Surmelin sec tor. The enemy is directing vio- lent counter attacks with strong forces against our front on the south bank of the Marne. His at tacks broke down before our lines with the heaviest losses.
 "After bitter fighting on the north bank of the Marne the suc- cesses of the first storming day were extended. After wardinq off French counter attacks we pushed on after the enemy as far as the heights north of VenteuiI and fouaht our way through the Bois de Ro- demat.
 "On both sides of the Ardre we threw back the enemy on the mountain of Reims between Ran tenaI and north of Pouroy.
 "The situation east of Reims is unchanoed. We have held the en- emy line under heavy fire and improved our positions on the Ro- man road and Suippes. Northwest of Massises. we captured some for &.F,>J hniNhfc

Claim 18,o00 Prisoners

In these endeavors, the German war office asserts the Germans have driven back the allied troops on the noun tain of Reims between Mantenal and north of Pourcy, the last named place being scant five miles distant from the Reims- Epernay lailroad. The French official communications ad- mits that the Germans hold the line west of Nanteuil la Posse. about a mile and half south of Pourcy and relatively five miles west of the rail- road.
 The German war office now is claiming the capture of 1S,00O prison CTS since the present offensive began.
 It is reported that French reserves have entered the fighting line along the Marne. and that to the north of La Chapelle- -Monthodon they have re- captured lost territory. The Germans also. as was expected. have brought up fresh forces in an endeavor to push forward their project in this region. There is a veritable deluge of shells from the guns of both sides along the entire Marne front
 Bombardments are Violent
 Oh tho DiitiSu lrOnl III northern france and Flanders the Germans are Keeping up violent bombardments on various sectors using both gas and high explosive shells. Gas has been used extensively on the Villers Bret onneux sector. where the British for several days past have been delivering successful patrol attacks and taking prisoners. The Albert sector is com ing in for an increased shower of shells of all kinds. Nowhere. however, has the German command seen fit as vet to start an infantry engagement, if one is contemplated.
 In Albania the French and Italian troops continue to make progress against the Austrians, and in the Ital- ian sector, up in the mountains. re- peated Austrian attacks have been re- pulsed by the Italians.

 At the same time centers of resist ance composed of French advanced posts opened fire with machine guns, which did terrific execution.

There are good many people ail- ing about town and colds are natur- ally and wisely treated with more than ordinary consideration.
 Clifford Himmeler, wife and little son and daughter are absent on a vis- it to Washington, D. C., while he is recuperating from his serious illness.
 Mrs. Una Rounds Woods is as well as usual not having succumbed to the dreadful influenza. James Burdick is among the sick ones at present. Arthur JOslin is able to be out.
 Rev. and Mrs. Darrow made a few nasty calls on old neighbors after at tending the funeral of Carl F. Joslin. Mrs. Joslin is suffering from a nerv- ous breakdown and general weakness.
 There will be the usual family gath erings on Thanksgiving day. The Presidents Thanksgiving Proclama- tion should be read in every home as a part of the time-honored days ob- servance.
 The bright November Sabbath morning and the prospect of hearing pr. Coates brought out more than the average congregation to profit by his comforting and inspiring sermon from Deut 33: 27.
 Miss Catherine de P. Ricketts went Thursday to New York to attend the funeral of her uncle, Prof. Ricketts, of Columbia university. Prof. Rick etts and his daughter passed several weeks at Hillside in July and August and his delicate health seemed beni- fitted by the change and rest. All who met him here will be saddened by the news of his death.
 A Thanksgiving service will be held at the church Thursday evening, com mencing at 7.3O, to be led by Deacon Bugbee. There will be special music arranged for by Miss Cunning. The president, Holman Hall, and members of the Wilmington Alumni are expect ed to lead the opening praise service. It is hoped that members of the or chestra will respond to the invitation to take part in the service. The church should be filled on this day of days and year of years to return thanks for the return of peace and for all our causes for gratitude and rejoicing. The townspeople should respond to this call for a community meeting and make of it an event long to be remembered, for it's encourage ment and uplift.

NO COUNTRY FOR POOR MAN
BraziIians Are Compelled to Pay Ex- traordinariiy High Prices for All
 the Necessaries of Life.

Rio de JaneirO, the most wonderful ly reconstructed city in the world, was also, until recently, one of the most pleasure loving. Today the president is endeavOring to instiIl war economy into the nation before it feels the brunt of war-a by no means easy task. Economy is not easily preached in 8 country where state lotteries are of daily, and public holidays of all too frequent, occurrence. The most popu- lar of the latter is the carnival, which occupies the four days preceding Ash Wednesday.
 Brazilians who complain of the high cost of living will probably wish to see war economy continued in times of peace. It costs about $7.20 a day to live at all comfortably in Rio. Some manufactured articles are now difficult to obtain, and the cost Of everything lowing to the war; and the colossal protective tariffs, is such as to make unaccustomed English folks feel faint with terror. A ready-made drill jack ct, though cheaper in back streets, will be commonly priced at $10.8O in shops on the Avenida Rio Branco. A tailor made mans suit will cost about $5O.- From the United States Naval Insti- ute Proceedings.
