FRENCH MAKE ADVANCE

 General Mangin now holds the line running from Morsain along the south ern edge of the ravine of Audignicourt to Rosette heights, dominating the plain of Carlepont and thence on to Pimprez, across the Disc. This sue cess gives the French command of the valley of the Disc as far as Mont Renaud.
 With these routes commanded by General Mangin's artillery. the only free route for exit from the region of Noyon and Lassigny is the narrow guage line running north to Ham by way of Guiscard, and the high road, running in the same direction. Un- less the German general, Von Hutier, is able to stop Mangin's advance he will have only this narrow outlet for HIS lIOOpS anu udltIldl, dS tue tTl- angle between the Noyon-Chauny road and the road from Noyon to Guiscard, while a good position for defense is not favorable for an intense move ment of troops and transports.
 The Germans consequently are fight ing desperately to hold their present lines, while seeking a chance to shake off the grip of the allies, break con tact with them and also slip away. The results of yesterdays operations while not spectacular, were entirely satisfactory, the French overcoming the resistance of the Germans in the region of Lassigny and pressing on toward Plessier.
 The French army continues to close in on both Rove and Lassigny. The stubbord resistance of the enemy has slowed up but thus far has been un- able to stop the progress of General Debeney's men.
 By sticking to Lassigny the Ger mans are taking big chance against

 Unofficial reports record the cap .ure by the British of the railway sta ton on the western outskirts of Rove. one of the pivotal points on the bat tle front between the Somme and the Disc.
 The gains are most important for the allies, for, aside from wide areas over which the enemy has been com pelled to acknowledge defeat, the wrenching in the German defense is becoming daily more noticeable. With in a short time they probably will be forced to commence a retrograde move ment on a scale that will mean the entire plotting out of old lines and the taking up of new ones to the east and southeast possibly from the region Of Rheims to YDres-

Convention Again Battled With Prop osition To Adjourn, But Decided To Remain in Session At
 Least Another Week.
Little Rock

Little Rock
 The constitutional convention Ter versed itself on the prohibition amendment adopted several weeks ago. and after heated debate pass ed a measure more drastic than any yet adopted by any state in the Union, 1t was stated on the floor of the convention. The measure adopt ed was introduced by Delegate Clay Sloan of Lawrence county, and reads as follows:
 Section Tt shall be forever un- lawful for any person, firm, corpora tion or association to manufacture any intoxicating liquors of any kind in this state.
 Sec 2-It shall be forever unlaW- full for any person, firm, corporation or association to import into, deliver, sell, own or keep within this state any intoxicating liquors of any kind, except wine for sacramental purposes and alcohol for medicinal, industrial or scientific purposes.
 "The legislative powers of the state shall provide adequate laws for the enforcement of this article"
 Col. Joseph w. House, one of the few surviving members of the 1894 constitutional convention, vigorously opposed the measure and denounced 1t in unmeasured terms, saying that the idea of preventing man from having liquor in his home for medici- nal purposes was preposterous.
 The convention again battled with the proposition to adjourn. but decid- ed to remain in session at least one more week.
 Delegate McRae of Prescott offered a substitute for section of the taxa tion proposals, an amended section of the old constitution providing for equal and uniform taxation of all property in the state, but exempting town, city, levee and improvement district bonds from taxation, as well as charities, parsonages, schools, ceIG- eteries and endowment, funds for schools and charitable institutions not invested in real estate.
 Col. McRae said that he offered the substitute in the interest of harmony and in order that the convention could make more headway in the tax ation discussion. which had occupied nearly two weeks time.
