One Comrade Killed and Two Others Wounded but He
 Escapes Serious Injury

Mrs. Will Lane has received the following letter from hel brother, Owen Fetzer, who has been wounded and is now in a hospital in France.
 Dear Sister, received your letter yesterday and you can guess how glad 1 was to hear from you, as yours was the second letter I have receiV- ed from America since 1 have been in France. The other letter was from Myrtle Fetzer.
 Sure was glad to hear that your crops are good, for if dear old America ever did need good crops it is now.
 If l could see you 1 could tell you something that 1 ex- pect would be interesting. You remember the Testament you gave me- We'll, that and some pictures are all that came out of battle with on the 18th of July A high explosive shell fell near me, killing one man and wounding two others. l was knocked down and rem dered unconscious, so you see l was the lucky boy of the four. We sure were making it hot for the Huns too just at that time.
 The average German hasn't the nerve to fight until he dies, like the Americans have. That Is one reason the Germans s can't hold their lines now.
 suppose you have read about Bulgaria making peace with the Allies. I think the other countries will ask for peace before long.
 Write me real often.

In 54 of the 75 counties of Arkansas, there are 238,307 dogs and 128,105 sheep and goats, giving the dogs a pre- ponderance of 110,202 accord ing to figures compiled by the State Food Administration.
 The data was gathered by county food administrators with definite object in view. When the next legislature con- venes, State Food Administra tor Hamp Williams will ask that a bill be enacted placing a war tax or dogs. This action will be taken with view to increasing the production of sheep and goats. For months, MT. Williams has received let ters from all sections of the state, some urging that a spec lal ruling be made taxing dogs, which he had no authority to order, while the other letters contained interesting data from often irate correspond ents, who told of the number of sheep and goats being kill ed by worthless CUTS. Others showing statistics to prove that the food that is being fed to dogs, and the cost of keeping the canines, would go far to support the American army in France.
 Mississippi county was the only one in which nary a sheep or goat.Was found, but there are 10000 dogs there the census taker quit when he reached that number-dogs of all sizes, color, shape, breed and of various degrees of so- cial standing and servitude- just dogs. Whether that coun- ty will be the one to receive a blue ribbon remains to be seen, but Pulaski county's data would indicate that perhaps Little Rock and it's outlying districts will prove to be the

AUSTRIAN PEACE PROPOSAL STILL OPEN, VIENNA INSISTS;
 YANKEE LYNCH KULTUR HIT

Amsterdam, Sept. 20.-Despite the apparent rejection of the Austro-Hun- garian proposal for a conference of belligerents to discuss the possibilities of peace. that governments offer still is open, says an official statement re- ceived from Vienna today. The state ment reads:
 From reports received from abroad the rejection of the Austro- Hungarian governments suggestion that prelim- mary discussion of the peace question be entered into can hardly be longer doubted.
 The official reply to Foreign Minis ter Burians note has not yet been re- ceived and therefore the reason which prompted the attitude of the govern ments of the Entente cannot be dis cussed at present. Only from Secre- tary BalfOur is an exhaustive discus sion of our suggestion available. His arguments show how correctly Baron Burian's proposal judged the situa- tion, and that only the adoption of Baron Burian's line of thinking could master the confusion of minds prevail ing everywhere until today.
 ''The peace question as discussed by Secretary Balfour-and the same ap- plies to the debates in the French and American senates--under the pressure of big catchwords and over-mastering passion, can naturally make no favor able progress. Especially regarding MT. Balfour's speech it must be point ed out that it contains a series of rash conclusions concerning the attitude of the Central Powers toward concrete peace questions which he would not have arrived at had he entered into discussion in the spirit of Baron Bu- rian,s proposal.

Publication of Yellow Book DisclOses True Nature of Old Military
 Agreement.

Paris, Sept. 19.-Documents estab- fishing the pacific and purely defen- sive nature of the alliance between France and Russia are published in the Yellow book distributed in the chamber of deputies today. The early negotiations showed that both Elm peror Alexander of Russia and Gen. Boisdeffre, the French representative, insisted upon the pacific character of the convention.
 Emperor Alexander hesitated some what at the outset, fearing that parti- sans, out of revenge for the war of 1870, might precipitate 8, new conflict The first conversations becoming known in Berlin, the German emperor became concerned. He is reported in one document as "regretting not hay ing attacked France in 1887"
 M. Montebe1lo, the French ambas- sador to Russia, finally announced the agreement in a dispatch to M. Ribot, foreign minister, on March 6, 1892, saying the principle of recipro- lization is accepted It was stipulated that France and Russia would mobi- lize their forces only if the Triple AL 1iance mobilized first. The conven- ton finally was concluded OF Decem- Der IS, 1893, and was preceded by the famous reception to the Russian marines in Paris.

 Line up boys and don't be long about it."
 Some of the clubmen thought. 1t was little by-play and did not move and were inclined to joke. The trio, however, began to close in and to prod the slow ones with their guns, and the men were soon lined up with their hands and arms elevated. One of the robbers then went through the pockets of each man with one hand, his other holding a gun. Cash and jewelry were collected. Some of the men did not want to give up watches, saying that they were gifts from their mother or valued merely as keepsakes and several saved heir time piece, especially those who made the mother plea. One man dropped his watch into his trousers but he was seen and ordered to step out of line When he did this the watch slipped down his trouser leg and was taken. When all the men had been searched the trio backed to the door, made some joking remarks and the slipped out and disappeared.
