BRITISH PUSHING
 EAST OF PERONNE
Have Crossed the. Somme River and Push on Toward Hinden- burg Line-Germans Burning, and Destroying.

With the British Army in France. Sept. 6.-Substantial advances again are reported all along the southern part of the line. The Australians have crossed the Somme on wide front south of Peronne and after over coming heavy opposition have driven into the territory the enemy was holding, St. Christ, Erie, Les Mesnil, Doignt and Athes wood all have been taken and progress is reported to have been made east of these places
 The enemy also has been driven back from east and northeast of Per onne. Over the whole area from which the Germans are retreating on this large section of the front, many fires are raging and numerous explo- siCns have been heard. Whole vil- lages are afame between the points to which the British have reached and the Hindenburg line. Here and in the northern areas the Germans are burning vast quantities of war ma terials which they have not had time to save
 The British have reached the Athies-H Ham road and are on the east ern outskirts of Bussu. At Nurlu there has been heavy fighting. Strong German forces, fighting desperately with machine guns and trench nor tars, have caused the British to pause here for the moment.
 Along the whole front from the southern extremity to the Bapaume- Cambrai road the enemy artillery fire gradually is dwindling away, indicat- ing that the Germans are making strenuous efforts to get their guns back of the Hindenburg defenses be- fore the British catch up with them.
 In the Queant area the British, af ter sharp fighting, occupied the ridge south of Moeuvres, and captured some German posts around Havrincourt wood. South of Havrincourt wood the advance north and south of Equan- court met with heavy resistance. Just east of here the whole town of Fins is afame.
 British posts west of the Canal du Nord. north of lnchy have been push ed forward, but patrols on the west bank of the canal were heavily fired upon from the east bank.
 In the north where the British are reported to be making advances, more fires are raging. In many places north of the Sensee river the Ger mans for several hours have been fir ing thousands of gas shells evidently trying to get rid of them

TURNED DREAMS TO ACCOUNT
Novelists and Musicians Have Scored

OF Dreadful Nightmares.

Mrs. Radcliffe, the great sensational

such blood-cur&ling romances as the
Mysteries of Udolpho" and "The Ro-

At first he was in an agony of ap-

But the lilt of the wonderful music
was still running in his brain and he
leaped out of bed. rushed to his desk
and put down all he could recall,
which, he always averred, was the

\. Y. CAMP RESIGNS AS
 FIRE COMMISSIONER
Pressure of Other Business Compels Him to Give
 Up City Office.

Herbert V. Camp today rendered his resignation as a member of the board of fire commissioners to Mayor George A. Quigley with a request to be relieved of the duties and reponsi- bllltles as soon as possible. Commits sioner Camp resigns on account of the pressure of his other business. He said that he does not feel that he has the time to give to the duties of the office the attention required.
 The retirement of Commissioners Camp from the fire board is to be regretted. During the year of serv- vice on the board he applied to his municipal service the same untiring energy that has been evident in all his undertakings. He took a keen in terest in all the matters of business. For several months past Commission CT Camp has been actively identified in Liberty Loan, Red Cross, Y. M. C.. A. and Thrift Stamp campaigns. Though not prominently mentioned in the columns of the press for the part he was taking, few persons were more active than he.
 MT. Camps real estate business has grown through the attention ho has given to 1t and he feels that he must give it all of his time. Mayor Quigley will not announce the ap- pointment of his successor for a few days.

LandtaG in Dutchy of Baden Wants All BclIigcrentS to Stop Bombard- ing Dcfenselcss Cities From Air.

Geneva, July 12.-Another cam paign has been undertaken along the Rhine in order to prevent Allied aerial bombardment of Rhine towns
 The landtag of the Dutchy of Baden has been asked to pass a reSo- lution requesting the government of the grand duchy to exercise it's in f1uence with the imperial authorities to come to an arrangement with the belligerents to abandon on both sides the aerial bonn bardment of towns outside the zone of military opera tiOnS. In a speech in the landtag in favor of the proposition Deputy Ma run declared aerial attacks on local ities behind the front serve no mili- tary purpose and that only innocent women and children suffer.
 In commenting on this new cam paign the Lausanne Gazette declares the Germans since the beginning of the war have bombarded London and Paris with Zeppelins and airplanes many more than a hundred times, while the Allies during three years for various reasons were unable to reply but did not whine. Now the Germans, it adds, after only a few months of bombardment of their open towns are crying, "Kamerad."
