 Northwest of Soissons where the Americans are in the line with the French in the general movement of clearing Picardy of the enemy there has been severe fighting but with the allied troops having the advantage.

 No Taste for Fun.
 Thursday the Americans heavily shelled the German positions but the Germans failed to accept their chal- lenge to a duel and replied only feebly
 The claim of the German war office that 250 Americans were made pri- soners during the recent fighting is denied by the American who assert that only a few of their men are missing.
 The situation in eastern Siberia seems to be somewhat clarified thru the disarming by the Czecho-SIovaks of all the Russian volunteers who re- volted recently and took sides with General Horvath the Bolsheviki leader.
 The first big battle in which all the allied forces, except the Americans took part occurred last Saturday when the enemy attacked but was decisive ly beaten.
 At last accounts the allied troops were steadily advancing against the enemy.

HORSES AND MULES REPORTED MISSING
 NEAR ALTHfIMER
Moscow Negro Arrested here as Im- plicated in the Wholesale Dis
 appearance.

Ed lrlppe, negro of Moscow was ar rested by Constable Clint Green or charge of stealing horses. He is in the county jail in default of bail of S1 ,000.
 With his arrest the local officials believe they are on the right track to recover six horses and mules report ed stolen in the vicinity of Altheimel during the past ten days. No less than half dozen horses and mules hafe mysteriously disap- peared in the last week from the vic lnlty of Altheimer and Vaugine town ship.
 Residents of this vicinity are at a loss to account for the wholesale ex- odus of their cattle. They are inves- tlgattlng certain clues gut have not as yet been able tc get trace of the missing animals.
 However, one farmer who was in Pine Bluff Thursday afternoon stated he had an idea regarding the whole sale disappearance and he intended making an investigation along this line.
 A large gathering of negroes held a meeting near Altheimer last week. This is about the time that the ami mals were reported missing. One and two each day. However, it cannot be accertained positively if this meeting has anothing to do directly with the disappearance of the horses and mules.
 The two horses which Trippe is alleged to have stolen have been re- covered, but Constable Green says he has learned that the negro has many charges of grand larceny against him In Lincoln county, where he is want ed by the sheriff.
 Of the two horses recovered, one be- longs to a negro named Clark and the other to a negro of near Althei- mer whose name is not known. Of- tlcers say Trippe stole mule from Clark and took it to a negro namel Seth Lamar who lives about a mile south of Pine Bluff, and told him to keep the mule for him and he would call for it Monday. Yesterday morn ing Trlppe called for the mule, the people of the community noticed him and immediately telephone MT. Green to come out. Constable Green went out to the house of Lamar but Trlppe was gone, Green finally fol- lowed him to Ladds, where he turned and came back to town, and was fin ally captured by MT. Green in Wal sons Restaurant on State street.

MUST DAMPEN OUR SPIRITS

Amsterdam, Feb. 11.-German news
papers are gloating over "the psyche
logical effect" which they expect the
sinking of the Tuscania must produce
in America.
The Koelnische Volks Zeitung says
the event must unfailingly dampen the
spirits of Americans and proceeds:
+. tSundry American vessels, some
with munitions and perhaps a small
number of soldiers, have been sunk
before, but so far as we know this is
the first case of a big transport with
a considerable number of troops
aboard falling victim to our U.boats.
Maybe large sized transports have
never or rarely so far crossed, for the
American forces in France are not
very large. .,.
"As such vessels must be conveyed
with great care, our U.boat's achieve
ment Is all the more remarkable and
gratifying"
The Berlin Mittag Am Zeitung
makes similar comment and rejoices
that so much war material was lost
and that the rescued soldiers will no
be Immediately available for service.

EY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

In France, where the American
forces recently have engaged the enc
my in minor encounters, the violence
OF artillery action is increasing daily.
On both sides of the Meuse and in the
Vosges, the French and Germans are
engaged in an artillery duel, while
frequent enemy rails on French posi-
tions are reported, the most recent
Of the Boureuilles having failed. De-
tails of the encounter on Friday night
with the superior German force in
the region of st. Mihiel show that ev-
cry. American fought desperately to
overcome the larger force of the en-
emy. Suddenly coming on the Ger
mans in No Mans and the little party
Of ID Americans quickly changed
formation and in the minute and a
half that followed before the enemy
retreated the rifles gave way to hand
grelades and automatics, co close
were The com 0atants. On Saturday
an American artilleryman was killed
by shell fire, and five others wounded.
These causalties, though light indi-
