ITALIANS WIN GREAT
VICTORY OVER AUSTRIANS

! Forty-five thousand Austrians cap
tured and many others drowned Ia
the swollen Piaye river. Total loss
es of Austrians 100000 men, accord
ing to the Seeolo of Milan. Italians
pursuing enemy have crossed the
Piave. Many of the retreating Aus
TRANS threw away their guns and
tried to escape over the river on RATS.
Much equipment left behind.
Rome, June 2S.-0n the Piave
river front from the Montello to the
Adriatic, the defeated Austro-H Hun
garlans are recrOssing the river in
disorder, says the Italian official
statement issued today The enemy
is being closely pursued by the Ital-
ian troops.
The text Of the statement follows:
Along the whole front of battle
cur artillery continues to lombard
the enemy intensely, On Montello
and along the Pave our infantry is
everywhere maintaining powerful
pressure on the enemy. Yesterday
we carried out successful raids and
patrol actions.
TO the west of Fagere the enemy
attempted some counter attacks,
which were Immediately crushed.
"A British party in an energetic
surprise action broke into the adver-
sary's lines to the south of Asiago
and after lively struggle killed 100
of the enemy and brought back 81 |
prisoners and one machine gun.
Our own allied airmen have con-
tlnued the struggle with undiminish- |
ed daring. They also carried out
yesterday heavy and effective bonn
oardments on the enemy's immediate
lines of communication.
"Ten enemy machines were brought
down. The enemy's aerial losses
since June Is amount to 95 airplanes
and six captive balloons.
The Austrian offensive was more
han a failure; 1t was a defeat for
.he enemy, who at several points was
our times stronger than the Italians. "
This announcement was made by
Premier Orlando in the Senate today
mid enthusiastic cheering. He added.
After the present victorious re-
lstance, another battle may burst
nut sooner or later. In fact, reliable
eports which have been received say
he Austrians are concentrating large
orces in the Tyrol and Trentino in
mother desperate attempt to break
trough the mountain front"
According to reports received on II
une "a, the Austrians continue to II
etreat across the Pave river under
ire of the allied artillery which is
DING heavy execution. The Aus :
rians are rushing up new reserves
n order to avert a disaster.
The Italian official statement in the
asst week has emphasized the cruel
Osses inflicted on the Austrians.
Among 16,prisoners taken at one time !
n Monticello, for instance, it was OBJ t
erved that they belonged to no less i
nan seven different regiments. Pris-
hers reported that serious losses
'ere caused by the Italian artillery, r
'ench bombs and machine guns. v

A CARD

Owing to some misunder-
standing concerning our recent
announcement by circular rel
alive to the warehouse leas-
ed by US for use as Tobacco
warehouse, we beg to inform
the tobacco shippers that we
wish in no wise to antagonize
the State Tobacco Warehouse

to be vitality useful to the to-
bacco farme's of Southern
Maryland and their loss if
such misfortune should happen
would be irreparable. We
only wish to render relief to
those who feel the urgent
need of service which they
cannot receive otherwise and
we shall most gladly turn over
to the State Warehouse all
tJbacco we receive when they
are in position to accommodate
our shippers. We have been
able in some instances to re-
lieve a serious embargo and if
our efforts have brought re-
suits we only ask considera-
ton to that extent. On the
other hand, if we are com
PEELED to take care of the to-
bacco when others cannot We
shall necessarily be compelled
10 make the reasonable charge
outlined in the circular.

ANNOUNCEMENTS ORPHEUM THEATRE, pANIELSoN.

Being the 18th member of a family that name has never worried Bob Ott- Some individuals seem to prosper all the more when they are born with a hoodoo. and the clever comedian is one of them. The feminine side of the family is not in oblivion, either. Miss Celia Ott married Sherrie Matthews of the famous team of Matthews and Bulger. the latter being the popular Harry Bulger. now with the George Conan revue in New York city. Bobs other sister was the well known The resa Vaughn, the star of Rice's 1492. Miss Vaughn married W, A. Mestayer the first manager to put a travelling company on the road, also the writer of the first American farce comedy, entitled The Tourists. This was way back in the days of 1s40
 Bob Ott made his first appearance on the stage when he was r years of age in Matthew Ott's production of The Last First. Later he played in Looping the Loop. His Honor the Mayor, Where is My Wife? The Merry Go-Round. In Gay Farce, Never Again The Mummy Girl. l Should Worry, The Silver Girl The Belle of Boston, No body Home. Seven Hours in x. T., On the March, Boys and Girls, The Com modore. Yours Truly. So you see Bob ott has mad some experience Tn the musical comedy world.
 The late Joe Ott was his brother, also a wonderful instructor When Bob was 10 years old Joe would teach him the art of repose-the great art of act ing without acting As Joe often said "It Is very difficult to teach people not how 10 act. The great stage favor ties of today do not act, and that is why they are in demand-take Mary Pirkford nobody can accuse her of acting-she is natural, that is why the public love her. Take Douglas Fair banks. Prank Keenan. W. s. Hart in fact. all the wonderful stars: they do not act. And that is why Bob wins his audience. He is natural, most of his comedy is extemporaneous, right hot oT the sriddle. Take Charlie Chaplin. most of his best scenes are concocted while the operator is taking the picture. And SO it is with Bob, most of his screamingly funny situa- tions arc created while he is on the stage-of course, the background is there. but that is just the ground work for greater things. Thursday, Friday and Saturday this week, at the Orpheum theatre, Danielson.
