HUMORS OF RENT COLLECTING
Landlords Tribute May Be
Human, After All.

A Bostonian, owning houses in
neighboring city, received the follow
ing stately letter from the collector Of
rents. We publish it to show that a
collector may be inexorable, yet have
a vein Of humor in his iron constitu-

ary:
"The soil-pipe, water pipes and other
apparatus in the cellar of the old
homestead are in their usual hibernal
state-frozen stiff; so Lemuel reports,
and adds that he offered to contribute
to Bill ton of coal for the furnace to
generate little warmth and partially
overcome the deadly, gravelike chill Of
that subterraneous space; and Bill
tells me that Lemuel is cheerful liar,
and made no such offer, and so tell
both what the other says, and leave
them to fight it out, impressing on
them, however, that the rent must be
forthcoming just the same"

APPALLING LOSSES SHOWN AS
AUSTRIANS STRUGGLE TO
CROSS PIAVE.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Rome, June 25.-T,ae dcfc:~t of the
Austrian armies on the western bank
OF the Piave river is complete. Ad-
mission is made by the Austrian war
office that the troops of Emperor
Charles Lave been forced to evacuate
the Montello plateau, over which they
had hoped to- press their way and
gain the Venetian plains, and some
sectors" of the positions they attained
last week on the bank of the river
between the plateau and tie point
where the stream empties into the
Adriatic. Bad weather and the rising
of the Piave under the heavy rainfalls
are assigned as the reasons for the
withdrawal of the Austrians. But the
Rome war office asserts that it was
the impetuOus attacks of the Italians
that brought about the failure OF an
operation which was started with the
intention of crushing the armies OF
Gen. Diaz, and forcing the Italians,
like the Russians, to accept a Teu-
tonic allied peace. Along tie river
the Italians have pressed back the in
vaders of their territory until only
small units remain on the western
bank, and across the stream King Vic
tor Emmanuels men are keeping we'll
on the heels of the retreating enemy,
who is fleeing in disorder. Again the
cavalry has been thrown into the
f;o1 ic !, cin hn
while machine guns from the ground
and from aircraft, sor1e of the latter
operated by American aviators, are
working havoc among the Ileeing Aus
trian columns.
The losses of the enemy are de-
scribed as enormous, both in men
killed, wounded or made prisoner. An
official statement from Rome to the
Italian embassy in Washington asserts
that the Austrians have lost $4,000
men in prisoners alone. The Austrian
dead cover the ground of the battle
in extraordinary numbers.
So hurried was the retrograde move
ment of the Austrians at some points
that they did not take time even to at
tempt to save their guns and stores,
great quantities of which now are, in
italian hands. All but one of the
bridges left for the Austrian retreat
across the Piave have been destroyed
by the Italian artillery.
On the front in France and Flanders
the operations continue of minor
character. The Italians again have
defeated the Germans near Bligny, in
the Marne sector, inflicting heavy cas-
ualties on them and taking number
of prisoners.
