Did Fine Job
AS a Trainer
New Hampshire Horseman
Put Life in Sluggish
Lu Princeton
By rank S. Cooke

The honor of doing the best job Of
training during the last year belongs
to Walter r. Cox, the shrewd Yankee
who has been giving more publicity 10
Dover, N. H., in the last decade than
any other influence. La Princeton is
the tool with which Cox did the work.
and while it took him since the fall of
1914 to put an edge on the sluggish
stallion he certainly had the horse at
razor blade sharpness last season.
Lu Princeton is product of Walnut
Hall Farm, near Lexington. owned
by the estate of the late L. V Harh-
ness, of New York. By San Francisco,
the horse is out of Lucinda Princeton,
whence comes his rather efeminate
name.
When four years old La. Princeton
was taken to the races and he landed
a seven-heat affair on the Rockport
merry -go-round at Cleveland, then one
heat at Clarksburg. w Va. when he
attained a record Of 2:15H. Somehow
there was a lot of talk about him that

the games, and they should be in their
best form. A trophy will be awarded
to the station scoring the greatest num-
Der of points.
All eyes will be turned on Joie Ray
when the fleet little national distance
champion toes the mark in the | II lie
run. Opposed to him, among others,
will be Joe Stout, of the University Of
Chicago, who is said to be ready to give
Ray the fight of his life. Little has
been heard of the condition of Ray,
while reports from Chicago have been
that Stout has run some fast miles
under the tutelage of DR.. Alonzo A.
Stage But in all his important meet
ings Ray has not been caught mapping,
will not be this time.
Ray holds the indoor record for this
distance of 6:46 1-5, having hu. up
the time in defeating John W. Over
ton, Of Yale, now in the marine ser
vice. After passing the l h-mile point
the runners will continue on to the
2mile mark, which Ray hopes to pass
in record time. Jack Ryan, Boston
A. A., will be the third starter.
Seven of the best middle distance
athletes that could be gathered to-
gethcr will make up the field in the
60o-yard event. This group includes
Bob Maxam, the University of Penn
sylvania freshman; George Dernell,
Boys Club; Jack Sellers, New York
A. c.; w. F. Kelly, Camp Dix; Joe
O'Brien, Loughlin Lyceum, and George
Meter, East Orange High School. AL
though Maxam is essaying task some
distance beyond his best route, 44O
yards, he is expected to prove trouble
some to Kelly and Dcrnel, the two who
are looked upon to fight it out for the
hOnOrS.

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES AT
THE FRONT, August 12.-The greatest
allied victory since the beginning OF the
war seems imminent. While it wouio
be- unwise to entertain false hopes and
while there will certainly be much hard
fighting and perhaps a lapse of many
months before the end of the war. the
fact remains that the German army To-
day is apparently verging on full re-
treat on the whole front between the
Somme and the Disc.
The movement. which already shows
signs OF great disorder, may wei ex-
tend farther to both flanks. The ailies
seem to be threatening nothing less
than the recapture Of the whole OF the
ground won by the enemy In iour
months OF desperate endeavor. me
crown prince will probably try to make
a stand on the Somme If this is now
possible. Already the French artillery
is shelling the confused conveys trying
to retreat along the Noyon-Guiscard
road

French Premier Visits Front and

PARIS, August 12-Premier Glenn
enceau and Minister of Finance Klotz
during their visit to the battle front
yesterday inspected at length the
frightful dstruction that has been
wrought by the battles waged for
the possession of Montdidier and Mo-
reuil. Both towns are places of desc
lation, with their houses reduced to
broken fragments of stone, and there
is not remaining a vestige of their
former streets.
Minister Klotz then visited his
chateau at Ayencourt, not far from
Montdidier, and found it in ruins. In
addition to destroying the buildings
the Germans had damaged or
wrecked all its contents. The min
lister obtained as a souvenir an enemy
machine gun that had been operated
in a battery from his park
Premier C1emenceau and Minister
Klotz discussed tho military situation
with Marshal Foch and Gems. Petain,
Humbert, Debentry and Rawlinson.
They also witnessed the bringing in

Allies Masters of Air.

Allied aviators have complete mas
terry of the air, and are able to ny
where they will. hampered neither by
German planes nor anti-aircraft can
non. The town of Roye. which is the
center of communications of the whole
Montdidier salient has been bombed
night and day since the beginning OF
the attacks. Airplanes flying at a low
altitude have destroyed several
bridges over tho Somme and others
are bombing the principal roads and
alta cl1ing the retreating troops with
machine guns.
The Germans in some places are
making a fierce show Of resistance,
but in other places they are throwing
their arms aside and running away.
French cavalry. accompanied by ar
mored automobiles, are pressing the
rear guards hotly. A detachment
overlook and slew a whole brigade
staff with lances. Although stubborn
opposition has been encountered at
certain points. the French losses have
been remarkably light. The Germans
in their flight have abandoned inn
mense quantities of stores. The pro-
portion of the guns captured to the
men captured is enormous.

CLAMORS FOR INQUIRY
INTO GERMAN REVERSE
Bremen Paper Says to Maintain
That Army Was Surprised Is
insufficient.

AMSTERDAM. August 12.-Clamor-
ing for an inquiry into this reverse"
the weser Zeitung of Bremen. deal
ing with the present allied offensive
on the Somme front, says that to
maintain the story that the German
army was surprised by the enemy
drive is an insufficient explanation.
inasmuch as it had been officially
stated that the attack was expected
and the German lines to tho west of
Montdidier were accordingly with
drawn.
Cologne Papers Comment.
The Cologne volks Zeitung advises
the people to keep their spirits up.
indicating that yesterday was day
of depression.
'In Cologne it was the day Of the
defeatists," the newspaper declares.
with anxiety depicted on their faces
they stood together, exchanging their
fears and discussing the dark pros
poets"
How the general situation on the
western front strikes Holland may
be indicated by a cartoon in Satur-
days Amsterdam Telegraaf. showing
the American eagle with President
Wilson's face in a deadly combat
with the Prussian eagle with En-
peror Williams face, the latter bird
being in sadly disheveled state.

Depression Sweeps Over Germans.

A wave of depression seems to be
sweeping the Germans. On the other
hand, the Yanks, Tommies and Poilus
are all aflame with enthusiasm. II is
almost impossible for the officers to re-
strain the men from rashness. An ex-
PLANTATION of the enemy's lack of avia-
ton activities is possibly partly due to
the heavy losses of the last few days
and partly to the necessity of hastily
moving certain aviation fields.
Explanation of the lack Of artillery
and the feeble artillery reaction is partly
due to the difficulty under which the
enemy has been laboring for the last six
months to replace worn-out artillery,
owing to the poor quality Of steel.

Increasing Difficulties.

The increasing difficulties attending
their retreat are driving the Germans
to desperate sacrifices in their efforts
to check the allies advance around
the positions the Germans hold on
Thiescourt plateau. Their losses are
extremely heavy and their dead lie
all over the field. They are found in
shell holes and hooks where they
yainly sought the protection from
the French fire. Among them are
some survivors who are found in
every possible hiding place.
Privations were endured by the
Germans in the front line recently.
This was picturesquely evidenced by
a letter found since the offensive be-
gan. 1t was from an officer. who in
formed his relatives in Germany that
the French artillery had been fur
nishing the only meat available by
killing horses. Another officer wrote

TERED CROSS NURSES OF EUROPE
 ARE GIVING TOASTED
 CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS

To anyone who doesn't know of the wonderful advances that have been made in the preparation of smoking tobaccos in the last few years it may sound strange to speak of toasted cigarettes.
 Strictly speaking, we should say ciga- rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok- CTS of this country will recognize it more readily by it's trade name, LUCKY STRIKE toasted cigarette.
 The American Tobacco Company are producing millions of these toasted ciga- rettes and these are being bought in enormous quantities through the various tobacco funds conducted by the news papers of the country and forwarded through the Red Cross Society to the boys in France.
 This new process of treating tobacco not only improves the flavor of the tobacco but it seals in this flavor and makes the cigarettes keep better.
 The Red Cross nurse is always glad to have cigarette for the wounded soldier, as, in most instances. that is the first thing asked for.
