SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE
WITH EMPEY
By Arthur Guy Ernpey

In the light from stump of a
candle l was making out my pre-
vious days report to turn into Brig
ade Headquarters. Occasionally the
entrance to the dugout would light
up with q red glare as a shell burst
in the near vicinity. Atwell was sit
ting on his pack, with his back lean
ing against the wet and muddy wall
of the dugout The rays from the
candle lighted up his face.
Finishing my report, 1 got out a
flag" lighted it, and with an uneasy
feeling listened to the roar of the
hell outside. A long-drawn sigh
caused me to look in Atwell's direc-
ton. Never in my life have 1 seen
such a detected and woebegone
countenance. This, in a way, an
gered me, because I, myself, right
then, had a feeling of impending
disaster, n sort of unknown dread
perhaps intermingled with far
away longing for the fields and flow-
ers at home. / wanted to be cheer
ed. and Atwel's face looked like
a morgue.
Forcing a smile I slapped Atwell
on the knee and said:
Come out o. your trance. We've
both got q good chance for Blighty
with this bombardment on"
Atwell looked in my direction, and
in a tone of voice which from him
1 had never heard before, answered:
"Yank, I've been out since ia.
I've buried many a mate and I've
seen many a lucky bloke on a
stretcher bound for Blighty, and
never gave it n thought, but right
now I feel as if my stay in the
trenches will be short. I've had
something on my mind since Sep
tember, 1914, and it's been worrying
me pink. I'm goin' to tell you the
story, and I'll give you my oath that
you're the first one that's ever heard
it from my lips; but I've got to have
your promise that you'll not judge
me too harshly. I've just got to get
it out O. my system"
Just then a signing moan could be
heard overhead. 1t was one of our
''nine- point-two" shells aimed in the
direction of Berlin. We both in
stinctively turned our eyes toward
the entrance of the dugout and wait
ed foi the burst. Nothing happen
ed
Another bIoomin' dud," ejaculat-
ed Atwell "A few more hundred
pounds gone to seed" and then again
the gloomy look spread over his
countenance. l was getting nervous
and uneasy. Trying to hide my fear
l said:
For tn love o. Mike, Atwell,
crack n smile. Give us that story
of yours, or else I'll go bughouse
You had better get it off your cnest,
because I'm thinking that Fritz will
soon be replying to our strafning,
and If an eight-inch shell ever hits
this dugout they'll need no wooden
crosses for us, because our names
will appear under the caption Miss
ing"

his lips, which sent a cold shiver up
and down my spinal column, he

No doubt many a German general

the ever-increasing laundering roar
reached his ears.

WILL ARREST G0RKY
I3olshcviki Order Russian Author Into
Custody-Suppress Newspaper.

London, Aug. 2.-The arrest of
Maxim Gorky, the Russian author and
revolutionary, has been ordered by an
investigating committee of the Soviet
government, says an Exchange Tele-
graph dispatch from Copenhagen. The
Petrograd correspondent of the Daily
Express reports that Gorky's papcr
has been suppressed permanently.
A Stockholm dispatch on July &c
reported that Maxim GorlSy was dying
from cholera in Petrograd, according
to message from Helsingfors.
Gorkys life has been a tempestu-
Gus one. Self-educated, he was inn
prisoned a number of times under the
cars regime. He visited the United
States in 1906.
Prior to the downfall of Kerensky
Gorky supported Lenine and Trotzky
Recently. however, there have been
reports OF decided differences of opin-
ion between Gorky and leaders of the
Soviet government.

CHANGE IN DRAFT!
New Manpower Blu to Con-
gress Next Week.
Secretary Baker Says Details
Are Nearly Ready.

Washington. Aug. "A new man
power bill changing the draft age linn
it will be introduced in congress early
next week. Secretary Baker announced
today. Practically all details of the
measure have been worked out.
Won't Reveal Age Limits.
Mr.. Baker would not reveal the age
Ii tits to be recommended by the de-
partment. He said. however. that
published reports that the limits were
to be set at from 10 to 40 years were
incorrect. The 10 to 40 years sugges-
ton was among those considered and
rejected, he added.
The age limits most generally re-
garded as being most acceptable to the
war department were 10 and 36, inciu-
sive, but Mr.. Baker would not give
any intimation these had been ac-
cepted.
The plan was discussed by Mr.
Baker and Chairman Dent of the
house military committee.

as other problems between America
and England. 1t cites the phrase used
by President Wilson in his Mount YER
non speech.
Germany is hardly likely to believe
that the allies mean what President
Wilson thus said for them as long as
they fail to take what Lord Robert
Cecil, under secretary of state for for
eign affairs. declared the other day as
all steps required to destroy the eco
nomic bas' of Germany's military eff
forts.
Labor Opposes Economic Pressure.
London. Thursday, Aug. Fear
that the adoption of economic weapons
after the war might eidanger the pro-
posed league of nations was expressed
by James H. Thomas. labor member
of parliament for Derby. in the house
of commons today during discussion
of a policy of such a league raised by
Liberal members.
Foreign Secretary Balfour, in reply,
complained that he had heard no
really practical suggestions from
members for the attachments of the
objects they all had in view, nor any
indication where an international
police force TO enforce contracts be-
tween nations could be found.
Unquestionably. he continued, a
league of nations could not afford to
deprive it's army of economic weapons
It is perfectly true that the economic
weapon is capable of misuse as Ger
many's policy in Russia is destructive
of liberty, but the foreign secretary
saw no sign of any country Concerning
to abandon the employment OF tariffs
if it considered them necessary.
Labor Believes In Economic Pressure.
He believes that Mr.. Thomas would
find that labor would not abandon
this method of dealing with economic
problems. Mr.. Baifour also contenF-
ed that universal disarmament only
vas possible if It could be proved that
effective and if it had machin cry for
keeping the worlds peace success
fully.
1.-The last four years" continued the
the nations that war is a costly. bdoody
and brutal thing. but not that it is a
thing to be thrust aside.
Frankly looking around the world,
see the greatest of nations quite as
ready to quarrel with each other as
the most ambitious of their prede-
cessors."
Lord Robert Cecil, under secretary
for foreign affairs, argued that the
conditions of peace ought to be made
more favorable to those nations pre-
pared to enter league. He thought
the question should be considered
fully in all its aspects and a scheme
prepared to be put into operation i'm
mediately after the war if there was
any prospects of its adoption because
a few years delay would result in the
cooling of present enthusiasm.
The difficulties in the way of estab-
fishing and running such a league,
were SO serious, he added, that only
by the united efforts of all men of
good will could it possibly be put into
execution

was still advancing early today. utIl-
izing every advantage gained in yes
terday's impetuous assault along a
three-mile front.
Beating dawn stubborn German re-
sistance, the allied troops had the sat
isfaction of seeing the enemy wildly
fleeing at some points.
The completeness of the llied Sue
cess is evidenced by the fact that
Franco British batteries were installed
shortly before a. m. on ground from
which we had only begun to drive the
Germans at a. m.
The Germans were able to use their
own artillery only on the smallest
scale, being compelled to RELY upon
machine guns. These were taken one
by one, Notwithstanding the boches'
logged resistance.
Bravery of BocheS Beyond Question,
The enemy's casualties during the
day were Extremely high. The BRAY
cry of their defense could not be ques-
toned, up to the point where it seemed
hopeless, If they disobeyed these or
ders to resist ito the death, their com
manders knew why.

the capture of the entire wood. A line
