Poles Launch
Counter Attacks

Paris Several successful counter
attacks have been launched by the
Poles against the Russians, who have
been hammering against the gates of
Warsaw, In the neighborhood of
Cholm, on the southwestern section,
Soviet forces which had crossed the
Bug river have been hurled back, while
in the region of Modlin, the Poles
have begun counter offensive, direct
ing their attack in the direction of
Mlawa. Military critics pointed out
last night that the situation was better
than for some time. They also said
there were indications that the Polish
command had decided to make saeri-
fees on the southern front in East
Galicia. The battle near Cholm may
be a precursor of an offensive move

SEEK KENOSHAN
IN AUTO THEFT
Sweetheart of Young Sail
or May Know Of Auto
Theft from Chicago.
SAILOR NOT in CITY

The police have received letter
from Chicago asking that they make
an effort to locate Amos Griffith, a
jackey at the Great Lakes Naval Sta
ton, who is sought in connection with
the disappearance of Ford automo-
bile belonging to Joseph Flip of Chi
cago on August 7th. 1t is declared
that the sailor has sweetheart in
Kenosha and that it is believed that
the man and the car may both be in
this city. The name of well known
Kenosha young woman was mentioned
in connection with the case and it is
declared that this young woman called
Griffith by telephone and made an en-
gagement to meet him in Kenosha.
1t is asserted that she called on the
telephone for Griffith again later in
the month. The police have not as
yet questioned the young woman in
regard to her sailor friend or in regard
to the automobile. 1t was said that she
was not found at the address which had
been given by the Chicago parties.
Hint at EIopement.
The letter from Chicago carries the
hint that the Ford automobile may
have been borrowed for honeymoon
trip and the owner of it seems to be
of the opinion that it is time that it
was returned. The name of Griffith
does not appear in the Kenosha city
directory and no enc could be found
who knew him here. The young lady
in question is above reproach and it
declared that if she has been riding
in the automobile she has no knowl-
edge of the ownership of it.

MAN IS HELD UP
MAKES NOREPORT
Women Witness Hold Up
on West Garden Street
Early Monday Eve.
TOOK MANS MONEY

There was "stick-up" out at the
corner of Ridge and Garden streets at
$3.50 o'clock Monday night but the man
who was held up and whom witnesses
saw relieved Of his money did not
think it worth while to make any re-
port to the police and no one knows
who he was or what he lost.
According to the story told by a
young woman who was an eye witness
to the holdup the unfortunate victim
was walking along Garden street when
he was approached by three men. They
flashed fashlight in his face and the
young woman saw his hands go sky
ward. Then they saw the two men not
busy with the hashlight go through his
pockets.
Girls Run as Man Shouts.
The two young women who had been
witnesses to the holdup ran away when
the man began calling for help. AS
soon as possible they sent someone to
make an investigation of the holdup
but the four men had disappeared and
nothing could be found of them.
II don't know who the fellow held up
was or how it all happened" said the
young lady. "We were walking along
just behind the man who was held up
when the three men came up behind
him. One of them said something that
we did not hear and the other two men
began going through his pockets. I
know that they got something, but I
don't know what it was. The men were
running away as we started to find
someone. l didn't see any revolver
but l did see the fashlight."

RUSSIAN WAITS
ON WAY HOME
Pilgrimage Has 7 a k e n
Children Almost Around
the World.
FORGET THEIR NAMES
tBy Associated Press.l

Westinghouse aglng around the
world to reach their homes, 100 Rus
sian waits, all that have been account
ed for of probably 5000 children sent
out Of Petrograd by their parents
when revolution grippei the. old Rus
sian capitol, are on their way from
San Francisco to New York by way of
the Panama canal. They came from
Vladivostok under the care Of the
American Red Cross Of which they
: have been wards for two years. They
are going back to Petrcgrad after suf-
fering and wanderings that for some
Of them have blotted out every rccol-
lection Of their parents, the places of
their birth or even their own names.
Speaking of the experiences of the
children, who range in age from 8 to
II years, statement by the Red Cross
said:
"The long sea journey writes the
last chapter in history of wandering
and adventure in a revolution torn
country, that can hardly be matched
in the whole record of world upheaval
in the last six years." the announce
ments says. ut seems almost tale
out of the Old Testament or Creek
Mythology and a thousand years from
now, it is perhaps not too much to
say, the Russians with their dramatic
instinct and mysticism will have made
it part Of their rich folklore"
Barrier of Fire Balks Return.
When the revolution broke out i'll
Russia, the report continued, many
parents in Petrograd decided to send
the youngsters into peaceful Siberia
"until the trouble was over" They
were sent east in charge of nurses and
teachers.
Later, barrier of fire marking. the
battle lines of the opposing Russian
and Czech armies had been stretched
between the youngsters and their
homes. Months passed. Winter ar
rived, funds were exhausted and hun
ger and war horrors menaced the wan
derers. The Omsk government appeal
ed to for help, passed it on to the Red
Cross.
Group after group was taken over
by the Red Cross, which established
colonies in western Siberia and had
apparently solved the problem of car
ing for it's charges when the battle line
swayed eastward and the Bolsheviki
captured town after town. Groups of
the children barely escaped capture.
Finally it was decided to take them to
Vladivostok.
DoughbOys Mother Youngsters
"Three trains of specially equipped
boxcars with a guard of American
doughboys transported the precious
cargo on journey lasting several
weeks through a country stripped bare
of provisions the report continued,
at may be said that ingenuity was
taxed to the utmost in obtaining sup
plies, avoiding disease epidemic areas
and evading other troubles"
Finally the children were settled at
Russian islands in Vladivostok harbor
in barracks with German and Austrian
prisoners pressed into service to do
the heavy work. School and hospitals
were established, natural talents were
cultivated and thirteen of the larger
girls took a course of training which
fitted them to be nurses. Several of
the youngsters showed unusual abili-
ties at music, painting and dancing.
The children will visit at Panama
Canal ports and in New York City on
their way home.
