 Both In City Jail.

Yesterday afternoon a young man giving his name as Ezra Upton, aged 22, and another man who says ms name is Charlie Ballard, aged about 30 years, came to the livery barn ot A. M. Edgar and sold MT. Edgar two fine mules for $150. MT. Edgar be- lieved the animals had been stolen and while the men were on their way to the bank to get his check cashed MT. Edgar telephoned Marshal c. C. Martin to apprehend them.
 They were promptly arrested and placed in the city jail. Not until last night would they make any adnais- sion of guilt. After being questioned closely by MT. Edgar and others, ur- ton amitted that he was an army de- serter and had left Camp Beauregard four months ago. He says his home is near Walnut Ridge.

.DR. WATSON |S
 MADE JAP TAIN
We'll Known Local Physician As Member Of Medical Corps Will
 Report At Camp Oglethorpe.

Dr. E. L. Watson, a we'll known and much liked local physician, today received his commission as captain in the medical corps of the United States Army. He will leave in if teen days for Camp Oglethorpe, Ga, where he is to take up his duties. He offered his services some time ago.
 Dr. Watson was elected mayor of Newport at the recent municipal elec- tion, being unopposed. He is also city health officer. In fulfilling the duties of both positions Dr. Watson has been very active, and while his friends will regret to lose him, New port is glad to furnish such splendid talent for the army.
 Other physicians in Newport who have offered their services are Dr. o. E. Jones and Dr. H. o. Walker, who are subject to call. There may be others of the city's medical pro- fession who have rendered their ser vices, but the above are those of whom the Independent has learned.

ME DEATH IN STRANGE MANNER Nine Months Old Daughter of Mr. Mrs. James Hall At Diaz Sus-
 tains Broken Neck.
Special to Independent.

oEcLldl tO llidCPSiiASlits
 Diaz, Oct. 9.-The little nine months-old daughter of MT. and Mrs. James Hall met it's death in very peculiar manner about II o'clock this morning. Mrs. Hall, who was busy preparing the noon meal, had laid the little child on the bed while she was out in the garden getting some tVr- nips and when she returned to the house she found the child hanging downward from the foot of an iron bed with it's neck broken. After the mother had left the room the little child had crawled to the foot of the bed and put it's head between two iron bars, and losing it's balance, 1t fell, the result causing the baby's neck to be broken.
 MT. and Mrs. Hall have only lived here a short time, having moved to Diaz from Little Rock about three months ago. MT. Hall is employed as signal maintainer for the Missou-. ri-Pacific railroad. The bereaved parents have the sympathy of the en- tire community in their loss.

COMMITTEES ID
 COMMENCE WORK
Following Meeting Last Night Sales men Will Start Work Of Selling
 Fourth Liberty Bonds.

There was an enthusiastic meeting last night at the Hazel hotel at which practically every member of the sales committees of the Third Liberty Loan organization was pres ent. Plans were perfected for the same salesmen to begin at once with the work of selling Fourth Liberty Bonds in Newport.
 The salesmen probably will not get down to real work before tomor- row, as another meeting of team cap- tains was necessary at the Chamber of Commerce this morning, when it was ascertained who had voluntarily purchased bonds during the ten days in which the public had opportunity to invest without solicitation. Quite large number voluntarily bought bonds on these days. Many did not. Some bought as they were able to buy, while others failed to subscribe their quotas. It will be the duty of the sales teams to call on those who did not buy bonds, and also to urge those who did not subscribe to their quotas to buy more bonds.
 Newport is behind it's quota, and rapid and enthusiastic work on the part of both the teams and the pur- chasers will be- necessary to bring the community up to where it should be before the drive closes.

Associated Press Summary.)


 Vigorously pressing the advan- &ages they have gained by breaking the German line between Cambrai and St. Quentin, the British, French and American armies have widened the great wedge in this area to such an extent that the entire German front from Rheims northward seems to be collapsing. Disintegration IS being hastened by strokes delivered hN the French along the Aisne, while further east the German left is being DlbamrYtared hard by French and Amer jean forces.
 Haig has now swung the main dl- rection of his drive from the south east of Cambrai to the northeast and is already within two miles of the important railroad junction of Leca- teau. The taking of Lecateau, which seems imminent, will cut the last lat eral railway line connection of the German northern front with the gaon salient and apparently will make the evacuation of the entire Laon area inevitable.

Allies Win High
Ground on West
Associated Press War Review

Associated PfesS war REVIEW.
Crushing in the German lines north
of the Ourcq river, the allies on Thurs
day carried their front TO the north
east from their former positions be-
tween Hartennes and Fere-enTarde.
noiS
The exact location OF the new line Is
not given, but it is said that the allies
have established themselves on the
high ridges between the Ourcq and the
Aisne and dominate the whole western
section OF the battle area.
Further east and south the allies
have captured the village OF Cierges
Wood Cleared Of Germans.
Goussancourt has been captured and
the northern edge OF Meuniere wood
has been cleared OF Germans. This
marks an advance OF a mile and three
quarters Nothing is said OF the fate
of the Germans at ST. Gemme, at the
tip OF the salient, but it is to be as
sumed that they have retrcated from
their perilous position.
Further toward Rheims the import
ant town OF Nile-en- Tardenois has
been encircled by the allies. it is re
ported The dispatch would seem to
indicate that the German defenders OF
the place have been surrounded.

success Of the allies on the western
side OF the line is the most important

treat from the Marne began The view

which would threaten Magin's rear.
The enemy concentrations drawn
largely from Rupprechts armies, indi-
cate at all events the possibility Of
something Of this kind The problem
of the role that Prince Rupprecht's
armies facing the British is intended
to play still is unsolved
Reports received here state that
practically the whole of Rupprechts
ilrSt class troops which constitute forty
percent of any given German army
have been sent to fight in the Aisne-
Marine salient. For the moment it
appears likely that any serious effort
will be made by the enemy against
the British front Ludendorff how
ever, is undoubtedly preparing to take
revenge for the check, by regrouping
his armies with a view to attempt one
elsewhere.
viii this revenge be attempted north
OF the Marne or IN some other direc-
tion? According to the military critic
OF the Temps, the second hypothesis
is more probable In 1916 the critic
reminds us that while the French held
the enemy at Verdun, the allies car
ried out great offensive on the
Somme to disengage the threatened
fortress.
"Precedents for ali situations have
been created during the four years in
this monStrous war" says the critic.
why should not Ludendorfi, whose
reserves are not exhausted, attempt a
similar maneuver2 Why while he has
foot OF ground between SoiSsons and
Rheims, should he not attempt a blow

viii not be able to retire in an ordi-

probably will have to 60 beyond the
river Vesle in their retreat.
The situation is considered as ex-
traordinarily good, being described in
the advices as the turning point of the
summer campaign and possibly Of the
whole war.
