SECOND VICTORY ON MARINE

American and French Troops Have Enormous
Booty in Prisoners, Guns and Other War

LONDON, July 22.-American troops yes
terday crossed the river Marne between Char
teves and Gland, east of Chateau Thierry, and
captured the wood of Barbillon, according to
authoritative announcement made here today.
The Germans are stubbornly resisting the
French crossing of the Marne, but the French
have succeeded in getting two elements over at
Mezy and Courcelles, which are constructing
foot bridges under heavy fire. The Germans
are using gas shells in large numbers.

American people will be careless or indifferent about furnishing the money that is to keep the United States army ready and fit to fight. His spies that have not been captured and jailed are busy. They are watching the situa- tion in every part of this country. Sooner or later their reports reach the master spy in Berlin and the Prus- sian war lords are nightly pleased when they can mark off certain spot in the United States as having failed to do it's duty to it's national govern ment.
 What the German general stah would like to see would be an Ameri- can army in France, cut off from this country by means of the submarines. They would like to see it weakened and starved so it could be cut to pieces by German forces. Lack of money to support the American army will cut 1t off from this country just as much as though all our transports and freighting ships were being sunk by submarines. The American dollar that is not used In buying Fourth Lib- erty bonds is a stacker dollar and it is helping to cut off the American boys who are over there from the help and the needed support back home.

PLAYED IN WAR WINS GROWN
 PRINCE VACATION
QUICK ABSORPTION OF FOURTH LOAN WEAPON TO FORGE
 KAISER BACK TO RHINE.
MANY SPIES YET AT LARGE
Allies Wonderful Successes Over comes Morale Displayed by Cor
 mans Early in the War.

The German Grown Prince has been given a six months vacation, accord ing to dispatches received by way of Amsterdam. His beaten armies have been showed back a long way from Paris and the heir to the German throne has been retired, at least tenn porarily, from his command. The fighting Americans, backed up by the Liberty Loans, have already accom- plished so much in the job of whip ping the Kaiser.
 America has a chance to shove the Grown Prince even farther back into private life With the Fourth Liberty Loan opening September 2S the massed avalanche of American dol lars will again hit the Hun line Since the Third Loan was made the Allies have stopped the German of fensive, saved Paris and are now slowly but surely showing the Hun armies back toward the Rhine.
 Kaiser Losing Caste.
 Undoubtedly the quick subscription of the Fourth Liberty Loan will cast a gloom over Germany. Reports con- ing from that country indicate that the Kaiser is losing some of the old popularity that made him an idol. Reports from neutral countries and articles in the German papers show that the Huns are cheering their peo- pie by telling them that the Americans are not whole-heartedly in the war. They have claimed that Americans would never be able to land big l army in France. Now that the army is there, the Hun generals are telling 1 the people that America will fail to furnish the money to support that army and give it food and ammuni- tion. Any indication that Americans are failing to buy Fourth Liberty Bonds will have a wonderfully cheer ing effect on the German General Staff. Such news would please these arrogant Huns better than report that they had captured division of French, English or American soldiers.
 Hun Watches America.
 The Huns know that America has the money and the men to carry the war right up to the gates of Berlin. What the Kaiser is now hoping is that

y UNIQUE RECORD.

The recent appointment of Judge
Robert II. Terrell, by President Will
son to succeed himself Oh the Num-
cipal Court bench OF the District of
Columbia, and the confirmation Of
the nomination by the United States
Senate last Thursday make rather
unusual record. Judge Terrell is
the senior member in point of service
OF the five members of the Court. He
has served sixteen and one half
years donSccutively. He has been
confirmed by the Senate five times.
His appointments have come from
three Presidents, all of whom arc now
living. Roosevelt named him twice,
Taft once, and Woodrow Wilson twice.
He is the only Republican on the
bench OF the Municipal! Court. but
has the backing of the lawyers OF
tho District almost to a man without
regard to politics. During his career
az q Judge he has presided in many
eases of great importance to the pco
pie Of his community. His reappoint
mnnt meets the heartiest approval
of all classes Of citizens of the Dis
trict Of Columbia, among whom he
has always maintained an unusual
popularity.

This thing I'd like to know
About the Negro Press!
This-How the d.ckence can they go
Can make such marked success
With such small Negro help?
The truth would dumb you with sur
prise
Did You but only know how few
or twenty-four odd million eyes
Or Negroes see the Negroes view!
The whites seldom subscribe
They read our papers less!
How Go our Editors prov de
Their pubic wiki Press?
How do they make enough for bread?
Weekly for one scholastic year
One Dollar and half
VIII take to all both far and near
The Negroes lnograph!
We cannot claim it's poverty!
Per year, We, like moon Struclis,
Subscribe for white da.licS you see
That cost from five to seven bucks.
We patroniHc the white mans press
And yet when Negro agents seek
Subscriptions for our Press,
Before they even chance to speak
We swear were III diStrcSS!
No Negro should be satisfied
TO read less lG,cc papers than four.
One East. one from the Western side
Ono North, one Sou,h-thcse if no
more!
-Four Cardinal paper re2.cws
For il is iuS' imperative
TO feed persons mind
AS it's his body that it live!
Each food susta.ns its kind.
So give your Press its half and Dollar!
