GERMAN ATTACKS BREAK

in progress Friday night when the
correspondent left the front. developed
Saturday into a general battle along
the French line from Moreuil to be-
yond Lassigny Here one of the
vrown princes armies, under Won Hut

saults aimed at various points and
extending % miles.
The French reserves came into ac-
tion with greatest vigor, offering the
sternest resistance Won Hutier is
utilizing the method of attack which
was successful at Riga, but this time
he finds himself confronted by troops
who are prepared TO meet all his ruses.
He is throwing division after division
into the battle with what appears 70

risking an entire force in order TO
attain an object can only be success
full when the adversaries are inferior
in quality or overwhelmed by num-

The French line is displaying splen-

are eXpending an enormous part Of
their strength, the French troops re-
tain their virile power for making a
strong counter stroke. in which they
will be aided by their reserves, which,
up to the present, have for the most
part only been held in readiness to
step into the area when the enemy
shows signs of weakening.
The Germans appear to have found
time to bring up large numbers of
guns and trench motars. Nothing
definite yet has been accomplished
since Saturdays onslaught begun. The
French troops are fighting confident-
ly and cheerfully. 1t is possible that
small fluctuations in the line will oc-
cur in the course of the day, but only
at the heaviest cost to the Germans.

CASE OF SUICIDE.
BOdy OF L. b. Kirby Found Sunday
Below the Falls.

The body of a man was found Sun
day about a quarter of a mile below
the falls. in a secluded spot on the
west bank of the river. A revolver in
the right hand of the dead man indi-
Gated at once that it was a plain case
OF suicide
Probation Officer Charles Torrance
identified the body as that Of L. B.
Kirby who attempted to commit sui
eide on the lawn of the Hotel Reming
ton last May, by swallowing carbolfc
acid. The attempt was made while a
Igwn party was in progress but a
short distance away. Prompt action
saved the life of the man at that time.
In a book he carried then was written
the name of L. B. Kirby, which the
man said was his name, and domestic
trouble was given as the cause of the
attempt on his life. He said he had
a wife and children at Idaho Falls and
was acquainted around Blackfoot In
quiry has failed to find anyone who
knew him at either place.
