PRAYER AT NOON FOR SUCCESS
IN THE WAR.

.
In line with the movement adopt
ed by nearly every city in the State,
Paris had adopted the practice of
sounding bell each day for the pur-
pose Of reminding the people that we
are in the war.
At noon each day the big tower bell
of the Paris Fire Department will be
sounded four or five times after the
tolling Of the hour of twelve by the
big clock in the court house tower.
This will be a reminder to the peo-
pie to bow their heads and offer up
a silent prayer for the success of the
American and Allied arms in the
great world-war struggle now going
on in Europe. The movement has
been in. effect in many Of the Central
Kentucky cities for some time, and is
proving to be one of the best daily
reminders of the participation OF
America in the war, or to pick out
the unpatriotic people.
When the bell sounded in the new
program for the first time last Sunday
it's meaning was not generally un-
derstood, and many thought it was
a fire alarm. From now on they
may understand what its object is
and act accordingly.

One of the boxes has been placed

CABINET OF PERU
 RESIGNS, REPORT
No Official Adyices Have Been Received at Peruv- ian Legation and Cause
 of Action Unknown
Lima, Peru, August 1.-The Peruvian cabinet has resigned.

Washington. August 1-At the Peruvian legation tonight it was said that no off cial advices had been received regarding the resignation of the Peruvian cabinet. reported in press dispatches from Lima. Minister Freye declined to venture an opinion as to the circumstances underly- ing the governmental crisis.
 Great excitement and agitation was re- ported to have prevailed recently throughout Peru owing to the delivery by Great Britain of a number of air planes to the neighboring republic of Chile. The Peruvian Congress was held in session pending developments, but the British government addressed an ex- planatory note to the government at Lima, which at the time was considered as having satisfied Peruvian officials. Further political friction is reported to have been caused by the failure of the British commission, headed by Lord Bunsen, to visit Peru at the time visits were paid to Argentina, Chile. Ecquador and other South American republics. In what way, however, this political uneasi- ness. could have reacted on the govern ment of Peru was unknown to off cialS here.

 But, alas, he entered picture work in stead of going to Central America to be- come a general in an overnight army, and not until recently has he had a chance to portray his favorite type of hero In Less Than Kim the colorful and swiftly moving romance by Alice Duer Miller, which has been picturzed by Marion Fairfax, and which will be shown at the Strand theatre today and tomorrow, he has a chance to revel in Central American atmosphere and in trigue,

GERMANS SEEING LIGHT

With the British Army in Flanders, August 1.-(By the Associated Press The ground on the British front is now drying under the hot sun rays. Except for laying down of barrag ges here and there along the line and the usual har- assing fire from both sides, however, the front this morning was quiet. From German prisoners and British of- ficers the correspondents have learned the news of what has happened regard ing the Aisne-Marne front which is now Altering into the German trenches op- posite the British lines Prisoners who have been captured in Flanders say that some of the facts are just becoming known and some dssatisfactions have been shown because of no further news having been made public.
 One prisoner said he had heard of the German failure at Rheims, but, he
 added, he had been told that 800 entente allied tanks had been in operation there, so seemed inclined to excuse the Teuton defeat.
 1t is evident that the German defeat on the Marne is having rlll effect among the German Emperor's troops on this front, despite the meagre limits of their knowledge. Some prisoners were under the impression that while the second German assault had failed, their com re les still were holding Chateau Thierry. The prisoners knew absolutely nothing about the entente a1ied advance to Fere-En- Tardenois.

F. LOYD TATE IS OUT. IN B|G CLASH WITH
 BROOKS LAWRENCE
Attorney General Locks Horns With Him On Re- cent Issue of Alabama
 Citizen

Montgomery. August 1.-(Special )-F. Lloyd Tate, attorney general. created for himself a personal Ananias club today and made Brooks Lawrence, superintendent of the Alabama Anti-Saloon league the first charter member. Attorney General Tate charged that MT. Lawrence had circulated the Alabama Citizen, official organ of the league. throughout the state with a story containing the statement that Pat Mcintyre of Montgomery was the chief assistant of the attorney gen. eral, and declared that Your article is false in all it's material statements"
 In making public statement, Attor- ney General Tate released a personal letter to Mir. Lawrence, dated July S1 in which he made the charge that the state ment was false and that Mir Lawrence had circulated the copy of the Citizen knowing the charge to be false
 Referring to MT. Lawrences newspaper story, Attorney General Tate in his letter to MT. Lawrence said: You admit that it is false in substantial particulars. but assert that it is your intention to mail out the paper knowing that it contains false statements with reference to my self and to the office which I hold; you admit that you do this after learning that the statements are false; you admit that you have the power to stop the cir culation of this paper, but that you do not intend to do so and you admit that the only correction that you intend to make is an admission of the error in a subsequent issue of your paper under date of August 10, obviously too late to remedy any false impression which might be created by the publication of the false statements in the issue of August 3. I also have seen copy of your issue of August 10, 1918, purporting to correct the error. Your alleged correction of the false statements contained in the issue of August 3 is insufficient
 "I therefore notify you that if you circulate the issue of your paper of Au- gust containing false statements with reference to myself and the office which hold, I shall publicly denounce you as man deserving the contempt of all respectable people,
 Issues of the Alabama Citizen of Au- gust 8 were delivered In Montgomery today and Attorney General Tate inn medately made public the letter which he had delivered in person to MT. Law renee.
