 WASHINGTON, May l2.-News of the British statement that the entente is so confident of its ability to hold the Germans that the American arrxy Is not to be used until it becomes and self supporting force, was re- ceived by army officers here tonight with frank delight, not only because of the supreme confidence indicated by such a decision but on account of the keen desire of American mill tary men to take the field against the enemy as a. distinctly American force.
 It was evident, however, that ot- ficials of the war department were puzzled by the Ottawa dispatch quot ing the British war summary. In the absence of Secretary Baker, who is in the south on an inspection tour no one would talk officially, but tht impression was given that no informa- tion had reached the department te indicate an intention to charge tht announced policy of brigading Ameri. cans with the British and French armies.

Never was the scarcity of labor
more forcibly brought home to Mr..
James H. OBannon than at present
He had made all his arrangements to
get married yesterday, but the rapid
approach of cold weather and the
prospects of frost made 1t apparent
that his crop of matured corn should
be cut and placed in position where
Mr.. Jack Frost would do 1t no harm.
After repeated attempts to secure
sufficient help, and all proving futile,
nothing remained for him to do but to
get busy aud attend to the corn,
which he did.
Notifying his bride-to-be of his pre-
dicament, she came to his rescue by
suggesting that they get married after
he got through with the crop, which
he readily accepted, and last night,
about 8 o'clock. the groom Mr.. James
! H. OBannon, garbed in his compiled
suit of corduroy and mud, and the
bride, Miss Florence Royce Fox
worthy, got a move on County Clerk

SLACKERS ARE
CALLED TO ACCOUNT
Council of Defense Summons Large
Number of Slackers Before Them
Friday For Not Buying
Liberty Bonds.

A large number Of Liberty Loan
slackers were summoned before the
Council of Defense at the County
Clerks office yesterday morning, to
state their reasons why they had not
purchased bonds.
After a brief discussion of the mat
ter, when the advisability of such are
investment was clearly defined the
majority of the slackers were willing
and glad to purchase bonds of the
Fourth issue, and over $4,000 were
sold.
The non-purchase of bonds in some
cases by citizens of this county was
due to the Stacker not realizing the
need of supporting this bond issue.
In other cases it was due to lack of
patriotism.

U. s. Troops ROut Gearmans En-
trenched on the Selle

With the Allied Armies of Cambria,
October 19-Tanks manned by Ameri-
cans, trained in England, led the as
sault against the German forces en-
trenched on the eastern side of the
Selle river Thursday. They were
faced by German marine divisions,
which offered desperate resistance.
At one point the Germans delivered a
counter-attack and momentarily gain
ed ground, but the tanks passed over
and beyond the high ground where
the Germans were making their stand
and quickly drove the enemy out of
his trenches.
American engineers, working under
heavy machine gun fire, placed
bridges across the river and then the
American and British infantry swept
across. The tanks helped to keep
down the enemy fire until the engi-
neers had completed their work, and
then went over with the infantry.

GERMAN REPLY

Berne, Switzerland, October 10 -
The German reply to President Will
son will not be completed and dis
patched for several days, according to
the latest Berlin advices.
1t is expected that the Reichstag
will be summoned to meet on Tues
day
The grand admiral of the fleet and
the chief of the naval stan have ar
rived in Berlin for consultation over
the answer.
1t is believed that the reply will be
neither full acceptance nor refusal
but worded so that the door will be
left open for further negotiations.
The Berlin reports show the hold
ing of peace demonstration by thou
sands Of workmen.
On the other hand, the patriotic and
economic associations, including the
great German Manufacturers associa-
tion, have adopted resolutions urging
the organization of a stubborn de-
fense.

Due to the rapid spread of Spanish
which in many cases has prostrated
entire families, the Health Nurses of
this city, Misses Casey and Walling
ford, have announced that they are
unable to cope with the situation, un-
less a temporary hospital for influ-
enza patients is arranged.
Chairman Frank Clark of the City
Board of Health Immediately notified
Mayor Russell, that such a hospital
was needed, when told of the situa-
tion. The High School building was
suggested, but as this is the last place
which should be considered for use as
a pest house, the idea was abandoned.
Several different buildings were
considered last evening, among these
were the present City Mission rooms
in the Caproni building, the Hicks
property on Sutton streea, the Grand
View Hotel on Front street.
This morning the Brable property
on Forest avenue was suggested as a
suitable place, and after going care
fully over the property, the Health
authorities decided upon it, as the
most convenient building for a hospi-
tai and will have it fixed up at once
for a suitable place, for the care and
treatment of influenza patients.
The need of a hospital for the TAX
ing care of patients with contagious
disease has long been felt in this COM
munity and the present epidemic
shows how badly such a hospital is
needed.

BURNING OF LEAVES ON
STREET To Be STOPPED
Against the Law to Burn Leaves on
Streets or In Alleys In This City.

For some time past a number of
people of this city have been sweep
ing leaves in front of their premises
and burning them, this being particu-
larly noticeable along parts of Forest
avenue. There is a stringent law
against any one burning any rubbish
or leaves on the streets or in the al
leys of the city, and people should be
more careful about this practice, es-
pecially at this time during the pres
ent extraordinary conditions sur
rounding the health of our commun-
ity. 1t isn't very pleasant to the sense
of smell of healthy person to have to
inhale the smoke from burning leaves
to say nothing about the distress to
those who are confined in their homes
by sickness and are compelled to have
open windows to secure ventilation,
through which this smoke pours and
greatly aggravates their condition.
Chief of Police Harry A. Ort pro-
mises the necessary relief and if af-
ter notification the parties persist in
burning the leaves they will have to
face more stringent measures as the
health of the community demands the
stopping of this right now.
