London — The Antwerp correspon-
dent of the Exchange Telegraph com-
pany has sent ttao following dispatch
“The German attack on the fort and
approaches of Koenigahoyck (one of
the new forts on the outer line) was
repulsed
“A violent attack on Termonde was
repulsed at 2 o’clock Oct 3 the
Belgians blowing up the bridge (over
the Scheldt)
“The Belgians undertook a counter
attack from Antwerp Friday morning
on the front of the early position This
V continues”
The Germans who are supposed to
’ have had the assistance of heavy Aus-
trian guns apparently have failed in
their first attempt to pierce the outer
line of fortifications at Antwerp Of-
ficial reports and statements by cor-
respondents say that none of the Bel
gian forts have been severely dam
aged and that the German Infantry
attacks were repulsed with heavy
losses to the attackers
The opinion prevails here that the
Germans do not Intend at present to
make a serious attempt to besiege
Antwerp and that the attacks they
have made is for the purpose of keep-
ing the Belgians within the fortress
and stopping sorties which were dis-
concerting to the Germans occupying
the rest of the country and occasional
ly disarranged their plans
London— The Battle of the Alsne
as It Is still called although the ar-
mies contending In it have spread far
beyond that river has been In prog
ress over three weeks and no decision
has been reached - i
Reports from Paris that the allies
operations were about to succeed were
premature"' From all appearance there
must be -more fighting before either
side gives way ‘ " "
The heaviest blows are being given
and taken Jn the western area where
according to late French official com-
munications an extremely violent bat-
tle continues especially In the Roye
district where the Germans have con-
centrated considerable forces The
communication added that the action
was extending more and more north-
ward and that the fighting front now
extends to the district south of-Arras
This apparently was a modest acf
count of the northward advance of the
French for private telegrams received
In London announced that' the French
actually had reached Arras Stubborn
resistance is being offered by the Ger-
mans in the vicinity of Roye where
earlier in the week they succeeded in
occupying the heights which however
they later were compelled to abandon-
Along the front' from the Oise to
the Meuse rivers' according to 'the
French report only partial operations
have been attempted by either sjde
Frontal attacks by the allies as a mat-
ter of fact have been discontinued
while the flanks are fighting for as-
cendency On the allies’ right the Germans
have made another attempt to cross
the Meuse at St Mihiel where they
got across last week The German at-
tempt to regain this groundr which
they had abandoned when threatened
on their flanks by troops from Tout
was made recently when they tried
to throw a bridge across the river

PEOPLE DID SOME THINKING
Of Course This Is a Fable But It Is
Possible That 8uch a Thing
May Happen
A certain people were much given
to deploring war War they kept In-
sisting was poor business
Their king ' heard " them but he
didn’t take them seriously The very
Hrst chance he got he picked a Quar-
rel with a neighboring power and
that done he lifted up his voice In the
old way
' "The fatherland Is In danger! he
cried ‘‘The honor of the nation Is
assailed! My children be patriots!”
But they couldn’t see him ’’Not on
your life!" they made answer “You
can fool all the people some of the
time and some of the people all of
the time but you cannot fool all the
people all the time!”
Whereupon the king made haste to
patch up his quarrel and was very
careful forever after not to pick an
other
This fable teaches that we have still
some distance to go before universal
peace can be anything but a Joke

ECZEMA ON CHILD’S BODY
670 High St Oshkosh Wls — “When
about two months old my nephew had
sores break out on different parts of
his body The trouble first began as
a raeh which itched so at night some-
one always held his hands even while
sleeping as at the least scratching it
would run together and form scabs
His night-clothes had to have mittene

WORLD REALLY DOES MOVE
New Englander Tells Good Story to
Illustrate ths Progress That Mark
Modsrn Times
Congressman William II Murray on
his return from a vacation In the
heart of the New England country
said In Tishomingo:
“The progress of the country is as-
tonishing The farmer of today drives
his motor car smokes bis cigarette
In a long amber tube and over his
after-dinner coffee listens to Caruso
singing the ’Star Song from ’Tosca’
on the phonograph or hear his wife
rendering on the player-piano
‘Peer Gynt’ aulte
“My New England farmer host In
answer to my compliments said yes
things had changed on the farm and
to accent this change he told a story
—a story of the pasL
“In the general store of the village
he began the general storekeeper
took a chew of tobacco and said:
“'Thet thar new preacher of ourn
la certainly a dude Oosh hang my
buttons ef he don’t comb out his
whiskers every mornln’ I got It
straight from his hired gal’
"Everybody atared at the general
storekeeper In astonishment before
this news Then the old squire
chuckled and said:
"‘Wall by crlnus I ’don’t see how
he stands the torture of It I comb
my whiskers every Sunday and
danged ef the knots don’t make me
plumb near cus an’ swear’"
TOO LONG WITHOUT CHANGE
Reason Why Jones Preferred to Own
Automobile Rather Than a
Fine Horee
Here Is a story that was told by
Congressman Charles R Crisp of
Georgia the other evening when the
talk turned to automobiles -
Smith was rambling down town one
afternoon when his friend Jones
whizzed along In a handsome new au-
tomobile Came a halt and then
some conversation - —
“I see that you have been getting
another automobile” remarked Smith
glancing bver the machine “Wouldn’t
you really prefer a nice horse?
“Well hardly!” smiled Jones “I
would rather burn gasoline than pitch
hay” - 1
“But Just think” persisted friend
Jones “a horse lives to be twenty or
thirty years old”
“Yes I know" admitted Jopes "but
that Is entirely too long to go without
changing the model’’— Philadephla

Shows the Folly of Toting Gun -
A little sermon on peace by Homer
Hoch: “Old Bill Jones always carried
a gun or two and by much practlce-1-when
he should have been at work he
became a crack shot He said that he
didn't propose to be caught unpre-
pared and that he went armed in or-
der to keep out of trouble But old
Bill Jones was in more brawls than
anybody and was finally gathered to
his fathers by a gent who was a little
quicker on the trigger Nations have
been proceeding on tho Bill Jones
theory This theory— played up strong
by the Honorable Krupp and others—
has been that in order to insure peace
they must be ready to fight tho world
on a’ moment’s notice But the nations
are Just like old Bill The Bill Jones
theory is ready for the junk pile” :
