With the British army in Northern
Franca, July 20.—Every foot of the
new German positions behind the lines
captured by the British north of the
Somme is being carefully and slowly
drenched with a destructive fire of
| British high explosives in preparation
for a new attack. Great British shells
are now dropping upon German works
from guns stationed miles to the rear.
British artillery pieces of large and
small caliber, acting in unison, are
systematically poundng the German
first lines.
The roar of guns is continuous and
resembles the heavy roll of thunder.
The Germans are replying only occa-
sionally. Either they are seriously
out-gunned, or are saving their ammu-
nition.
British air craft, without molesta-
tion, arc directing the fire of the ar-
tillery. Since the beginning of the
j Anglo-French push German air craft
have been surprisingly absent. A1
lied flyers and ballon observers have
been working in perfect security, ob-
taining most valuable -information.
From a height a short distance in the
rear, 1 obtained an excellent view of
s Fricourt, Contalmaison, Mametz vil-
lage, Mametz Wood, Bazentin-le
I Grand and other positions recently
' conquered by the British. Later our
' party traversed the valley of the
i Somme and entered the ruins of Fri-
! court, once a German stronghold, but
stormed and captured by the British
| early in their great offensive.
I Imagine a giant steam roller pass-
I ing over an American town of 2,000
inhabitants and you get an idea of
Fricourt today. The little French
town has been literally wiped off the
map. German dugouts and shellholes
represent the spike holes of a huge
steam roller. The rest of the town is
flattened in debris. Here and there
from the hole of a battered-in Ger-
man dugout comes a sickening stench
that tells of piles of corpses.
The scene at Fricourt is typical of
that in any of the other villages blot-
ed out by high explosives. High Brit-
ish officers say that the purpose of the
British offensive is not speed, but to
recover by slow, steady pushes every
yard of invaded French and Belgian
territory at a minimum expense of
human blood and by a heavy use of
powerful explosives of which there is
a big supply on hand.
Fighting must go on below as well
, as above round. The Germans have
j eatacombed all villages to escape shell
fire. At Babantin-le-Grand, for in-
I stance, the under ground caverns shel-
j tered 15,000 men. The entire Anglo-

"Rose Goggles" will be the name of
I the three-act modern comedy given by
the senior class of the fourth an-
nual summer session of the Univer-
sity of Oklahoma at the Franing
opera house on Friday night, July 28,
under the direction of Miss E. Marie
Anderson, of the faculty of the
School of Fine Arts. An admission
to cover all expenses, no student as-
iation ticket being issued during
the summer session of the university
The members of the senior class
have organized for the first time this
summer and Clark Cunningham, presi-
dent of the class, is putting forth
every effort to make the play a suc-
cess. But few entertainments of this
nature are given during the summer
session of the university and those
in charge are expecting a well filled
house to witness the production of
"Rose Goggles."
Seven characters will be represent-
ed in this play. Miss Marie Mauk
and E. K. Witcher are to takq the
leading parts and will be assisted by
Miss Mary Gordon, Miss Sylvia
Flitch, Miss Early Black, Mr. Frank
Van Slyke and Mr. Blair Thorp. The
members of the cast are practicing
each night and have already held a
number of rehearsals.

I TWINS—ONE WHITE, ONE BLACK j
Denver, July 17.—Mabel Owen, who
claims to be white, an obscure de- j
pendent upon charity, now a patient
in the county hospital, has written an
amazing chapter to the history of ]
motherhood by bringing into the J
world in the space of one hour twin
babies, one black; one white—Ethio-
pian and Caucasian. The Ethiopian
baby is a boy. All the marks which
indicate a low order of intelligence
and development are noted in this
child, the narrow, bulging head and
slim face, the flat, wide, crinkled
ears and tiny, round, twinkling eyes
and kinky hair. The Caucasian baby
is a girl. The child Is fair with fine j
shaped head, delicately modeled ears,
a wee mouth, well defined nose and
chin, a wide brow and straight brown
hair.
If these children had been born, one
in the hut of an African savage and
one in the mansion of a sedate Eng-
lishman, they could not be more unlike
than they are Not content with
breaking the racial record in giving
birth to a black and a white child, this
woman shattered the heredity tenden-
cies which decree the father's likeness
and characteristics to the girl and
those of the mother to the boy. Ma-
bel Owen's daughter is white like her-
self, a normal baby showing signs of
breeding.
