Lad, !, IS, Joins Machine Gun
 Corps, U.S.A,
Charles Senyard Believed to Be Youngest Mem
 Der of Corps.

In Charles Senyard, aged 15. Pine Bluff probably has the distinction of possessing the youngest volunteer for the machine gun corps or "suicde club to be accepted for service.
 Charlie, who is the son of Mrs. c. A. Arnold, is expected to make good soldier because he believes in doing things with dispatch Obtaining con- sent to enlist, he went to the local recruiting office Monday afternoon, and at 5:30 p. m. was on his way to Little Rock, where he was examined, passed and started to Jefferson Bar racks, Mo-, for training. Mrs. Arnold received a telegram from his yester- day afternoon saying he had success fully passed the final examination, was Gin" the army, and delighted.
 Charlie is cousin of Tom Senyard, one of the first American soldiers to set foot in France, and who was re- gently invalided home because of shell shock and effects of gas. He wis ited Pine Bluff recently, his stories of the battlefield seemingly set ablaze the fire of patriotism in the heart of his young kinsman, whose example in enlisting is pointed to as one that should be emulated by youths and men far older than the fifteen-year-old patriot.

 Down by Our Airmen.

With the American Army in France, June 5.--An American lieu tenant and another pilot engaged a German biplane over the lines, north- west of Foul, this morning, and for ced the enemy plane down inside it's own lines after hot fight
 After the two American pilots left the scene of the landing, several hum dred of the enemy men and officers gathered around where the machine had settled down, and the American artillery dropped many shells on the spot, wrecking the machine and inflicting some casualties.
 The air battle started at an alti- tude of 5000 meters, the American pilots attacking first from under the tail. When one of the Americans got on top, the German observer cut loose with stream of bullets, two of which penetrated the tail and a third enterd the fusilage and exploded. The pieces spattered in all directions, but the American airman continued fighting and forced the boche to the earth. That the bullet was of the explosive type is said to be absolutely certain. Five other air battles were fought but without decision.

WELSH DR0WNS
 WHILE BATHING
 IN RIVER HERE
Another Member of Party Saved by Companion,
 After Rescue Attempt.

R. F.. Welsh, car repaiIer at the Cotton Belt shops, was drowned in the Arkansas river here yesterday ev- ening. E. E. Wallace. another member of the bathing party, narrowly es- capped losing his life in an effort to save Welsh Wallace was saved by C.. M. Wooten, who was tall enough to wade to where Wallace had been car ried by the rapid current. Search for Welsh's body was unsuccessful. He leaves a widow and two children.
 Welsh, T. D. Douglas, Wooten, Wal lace, E.. B. Blocker and another young man named Washington, all employ ed in the car department at the Cot ton Belt shops. went in swimming off the bar. opposite the head of Ala bama street, after they quit work yes terday afternoon. The current is very strong in the river at this point, and it is presumed that Welsh stepped in to hole, and was swept off his feet. Wallace heard his cry, and attempted rescue, and was in trouble when Wooten waded out and dragged him to shallow water.
 Welsh was not seen again by any member of the party. The river was dragged for several hours without his body being recovered.

U. 5. OFFICERS SEE SECOND HUN CHECK
 AT RIVER MARINE
Believe Fourth Blow May Come Before Foch's Of-
 fensive Ready.

Washington, June 5.-With the Berlin official statement tonight con- ceding that there is ''no change" on the western battle front, observers here became increasingly confident that the river Marne, for the second time in the great struggle, had mark ed the end of drive intended to crush resistance to the German war machine
 There was nothing to indicate, how ever. that any officers familiar with the progress of the fighting believed that the invaders will be hurled back in precipitious retreat before a viz orous offensive by General Foch's armies now. They did not see any reason to believe that e!n'man power had exhausted itself. It is more than possible, it is said that renewed as saults on the line from Chateau Thierry to Soissons would come at any moment. The German high com mand may be gathereing strength there to force way thru toward Paris.
 Shock Troops Disappear.
 Unofficial reports from the front, IOWcVcI, IlldL luc CIdCk break thru the allied line, were dis German offensive division, tlye shock troops, relied upon time and again to If this is fact officers believed it appearing from the new battle front meant that preparations were already under way behind the German lines for fourth blow. Where 1t might fall they hesitated to predict, tho some believed that the enemy would derived the greatest result by carry ing out his original plan of smasbt ing thru to the channel ports.
 Everybody here is greatly pleased with the evident good impression cre- ated by the American troops wherever they have been employed. The suc- cesses scored by the fighting men gives zest to the task of arming and equipping them and rushing them re- Inducements for telling victories they will win later.
 Tributes by British and French ob- servers to the accuracy and volume of American machine gun fire have been noted with particular gratifica- tion. General Pershing has insisted from the first on good marksman- ship.

'Crowder Summons 100000 More Men to Colors Be-
 tween June 24 and 28.
WILL EXHAUST CLASS
 ONE IN MANY STATES
Officials Think Many of Young Men Registered Yesterday Will Soon be in UnifOrm-Expect 75O,-
 OGO to Qualify.

Washington. June 5.-While mil lion young Americans just turned Fl were registering today for service in the war for world freedom, orders went out from the office of Provost Marshal General Crowder to the gov ernor of all states except Arizona, for the mobilization between June 24 and 2S of 100000 more registrants. This brings the total number of selective service men called to the colors to 1,596, ,7O4, and when they are in camp the nations army will number well over 2.000,000 men.
 Registration Orderly.
 The registration today in most in stances, was attended by the perfect order that marked the enrolling d year ago of 1O0O0,OO0 men who form ed the reservoir upon which the na- tion is drawing to furnish the balance of power to crush the German war machine.
 The men appeared today before 4,500 local boards over the country have become of age since the first registration day, June Q, 1917. Mili- tary authorities estimate that from their number will be had 7o0, ,000 men fit for active duty.
 Many May Soon Be Called
 While an act of congress requires that the new registrants be placed at the bottom of the class to which they are assigned. many of them may soon be called to the colors, as today's re- quisition upon governors probably will exhaust the first class in some states.
 While no formal explanation was made, this was believed to have been the reason why Arizona was not in cluded in today's call. Illinois is dir ected to furnish 2S,500 men under the latest call; more than double the mum. Der called from New York which is second on the list: Pennsylvania is to furnished 12,000,0O0 and Minnesota 10000.
 The quota assigned to Camp Pike are as follows: Arkansas, 4.000 Ala bama, 2O00 and Louisiana. 2.0O0.

 The work was handled expenditious- ly and with no confusion. The local boards were fully prepared to handle a far larger number of registrants than reported without taxing their facilities. The number registered yes terday was slightly in excess of the es- inmates made by the boards.
 The young men who were placed on the list of war eligible yesterday will be given numbers which will place them below the older registrants in order of liability.

 ''The great duty of our navy" said he. "iS to keep open the door to France; to carry out men and muni- tions to the great battle front and to guard food supplies for our co-belli- gerents. That has been accomplished thus far. and we will continue to keep the road open"
 The navy department had no fur ther advices at noon today from the patrol fleet hunting down the sMbmar- inc that was last heard from off the Virginia and Maryland coasts.
 Naval Forces Concentrated
 Concentration today of American naval forces off the Maryland coast followed the receipt Of advices by the navy department that German under sea craft having sunk probable to- tai of 10 vessels off the New Jersey coast, had yesterday transferred the scene of their depredations further south. Just as naval officials had con cluded that the Germans raiders had left American waters for their home port, there came the news that a Wrench tank steamer, the Radioleine, was saved from destruction early yes- terday by an American destroyer 65 miles oft the Maryland coast. The same dispatch brought the news that there had been another schooner. the Edward Baird, IT,, added to the list of submarine victims.
 The Baird was found in sinking condition by the destroyer which took on board two of the schooner's sur vivors. The Baird was vessel of 279 tons hailing from Wilmington, Del. NO report had been received early today as to other members of the schoon- CTS crew, and it was not known whether other additions would be made to the list of 5S persons be lieved to have been lost when the steamship Carolina was shelled and sunk. In attacking the French tank CT, Radioleine, the German raiders l made their first attempt to sink transatlantic vessel.

ITALIAN VESSEL MAY HAVE SCORED
 HIT 0N HUN SUB
Fired Several Shots at What Was Thought to
 Be Periscope.

An Atlantic Port, June 5.-(By the Associated Press. )-An American armed freight steamship which arriv' ed here today from an Italian port fired number of shots Monday af- ternoon at what was believed to be a German submarine about 100 miles off Barnegat light, the officer of the vessel said.
 "We had received wireless warn ings to look out for enemy u-boats,' y the officer, said "and had changed our course. Our gunners were on the alert with double lookouts posted. A mass of wreckage was seen and near it what appeared to be a peris- cope. We took no chances and our guns both fore and aft discharged several shots each. If it was peris- cope, whatever it was attached to un- doubtedly was hit more than once.
 "The using of the ships armament so close to the port of destination was simply a continuation of a voyage of excitement lasting three weeks. The first day out from the Italian port submarine chasers, which were con voying us, sighted two submarines and got one of them with depth bombs. Near Gibralter we had an other scare, and submarine was chased away by the vigorous use of our guns. Again in mid-Atlantic we sighted a suspicious sailing vessel which caused a call to the guns sand spell of speedy zig-zag sailing. As we neared the American coast we thought our worry was behind, but it was not"

FIRST METHODIST
 CHURCH ACQUIRES MURPHY PROPERTY
Congregation Pays $18,0C0
 for West Sixth Lot on Which to Build.

The First Methodist church congre- gation has purchased from T. Y Murphy the residence property on the south side of Sixth avenue, between Pine and Chestnut, and will erect g handsome church thereon after the war. The price paid for the property which has a frontage of 165 feet on West Sixth and is 154 feet deep, with an alley in the rear, was $18,000. This is the old Sullivan home, and some times referred to as "The Place of the Magnolias" because of the foui large magnolia trees in front of the residence.
 Rev. E. R. Steel and family will occupy the residence as soon as MT and Mrs. Murphy vacate, and the present parsonage in Main street will be used for Sunday school rooms.
 The First Methodist Church con- gregation decided some years ago to seek another location for the church, because of the noise in the locality of Sixth and Main, which has now become part of the business dis trict, and is a street car center Growth of the congregation and Sun- day school made more room neces- sary, and recently the board of trus- tees began negotiating for the Mur- phy property. The board is composed of Dr. A. c. oJrdan, chairman; w w. Taylor, John R. Sanders Jr.; N. j. Can't, Jr.; A. w. Mills, D. L. Mills, D. I. Mills, and Maj. H. M. Mccoy

Huns Pound Ally Line

With the French Army in France, June 5.-(By the Associated Press.) The enemy's etnire pressure seems to have been turned upon the western flank. where he is making the great est efforts to straighten out the bulge into his lines occasioned by the de- termined resistance of the allies. The point of his most pronounced ad- vance on the southern end of this bulge is Troesnes, northeast of La Fere Milon, while the northern point of the bulge is at Moulin -Pouv- ent, northwest of Soissons. Between these two points the Germans have brought forward much of their artil- lery, and local operations in which in- fantry and machine gunners are en- gagged are almost incessant.
 North of the Aisne, as we'll as to the southward, every attempt of the Germans in the last few days to make progress has been frustrated as soon at it was begun. The allies even have been able to improve their positions at some points. This was the case be- tween Courcy and Longbomp today Here the opposing lines run along the edge of the Forest of Villers Carter ct, into which the Germans are try-:
