"We have all followed wit'h admiration
the forward movements of our
brave allies in an offensive operation
which has been marked with complete
l success and which is still proceeding
with every promise and indication of
I "being wholly satisfactory. The attacks
delivered by our forces at first were
^ not attended with the same immediate
rsuccess, owing to the elaborate arrangements
made by the Germans to
defend their lines altv.* their experience
at Xeuve* Chappe.le, but on the
iygnt of May 15, by a renewed effort,
the British forces drove back the enemy

This action <also is proceeding, and we
fcope that in conformity with the
French operations it will achieve important
results.As
to Shell Supply.
"T&ese offensive operations against
i the trenches of the enemy have de
manded enormous expenditures in ammunition,
both of our usual type and
also of the highest explosive pattern
which we are now making. I am confident
that in tfte very near future we
shall be in a satisfactory position in
! regard to the supply of these shells.
I "In these recent offensive operations
our losses an-d tJfcose of the French
have been heavy, but the task our armhaw
ar?nnmnlishtari has nerPSSitat
Ied great sacrifices, and the spirit and
morals of our troops has ever been
higher than at t?e present moment."
The war secretary had this to say
concerning the position of the Russians

i Turning to t':e Dardanelles, Earl
Kitchener said that the progress of

PKe country was more difficult.
Pushing Turks Back.
* "But the Turks are gradually being
Jorced to retire from positions of great
strength," he continued, "and, though
tie enemy is being constantly reinLi
forced, the news from this front is
thoroughly satisfactory."
B Earl Kitchener then referred to the
V South African campaign and the occupation
by Union of South Africa
I forces of Windhoek, capital of German
Southwest Africa.
1 . "The military ability displayed by
1 Gen. Botha has been of a very high orI
j der," he said, in this connection, "and
' has confirmed the admiration felt for
him as a commander and a leader of
W men."

tary asserted, and were gradually

After referring in eulogistic terms tc

Kitchener concluded:
"I said I would let the country know
B when more men were wanted for the
war. The time has come and I now

Hr.ose who are engaged in the
production of war material of any kind
should not leave their work. It is tc

"We confidently expect during: the

periods of prosperity that this section
of the country has ever experienced."
says L. L. Hardin, cashier of the
Bank of Columbia, in replying to an
j inquiry from The Manufacturers Reci
ord (Baltimore), regarding tire condii
tion of this business community,
j "From our standpoint," he says, "we
| notice a very marked improvement in
'general financial conditions in this

. months. While some of this improvement
has been due, no doubt, to the
advance in the price of cotton, we

in spite of the development of more
and more facts to the contrary, and as
part of our long sustained work, of
overcoming even the slightest lingering
wrong impression of the inherent
strength of the South, we recently
asked a number of Southern bankers
for their views of present conditions
in their section in the liglit of the
recent past. In reply we have received
a number of interesting letters, all of
them manifesting the conservatism
which naturally belongs to the element
in the community which has its touch
upon the public pulse and is largely
depended upon to assist in remedying
public troubles.
"Xo notable expansion of activities
of any kind partaking of the nature
of a 'boom' looms upon the horizon
of these bankers. It is well Uhat such
is not the case. In present circumstances
such a manifestation would be
the sure symptom of an unhealthy
state. Some of the letters even reflect J
slowness in the return to normal conditions.

in that. Influences responsible

PETROGRAD IS A WONDER.
I
City Built by Russia In Defiance of
the Laws of Nature.
It is an amazing monument to the
despotism of tLie czars that Petrograd
has flourished, as it was built, in defiance
of the laws of trade and of nature
herself. As a port it is immeasurably
inferior to Uiga, which has a
much longer open season, for Petro
grad is icebound trom early .November
to the end of April. As a building site
it has been repeatedly and disastrously
flooded by the Neva. The highest
elevation within the bounds of the city
is less than fifteen feet above sea level,
and the cellars have to be baled out
nearly every spring when the ice melts
and the wind blows.
And the rigorous climate constantly
gnaws at walls and columns until the
citj has been twice and thrice rebuilt
by the czars. Many of the most imposing
structures are held together
only by means of iron clamps, and the
huge bowlder on which Teter rides his
bronze horse is ever crumbling away.

An agent approaching a house met a
little boy at tbe gate and asked:
"Is your mother home?"
"Yes. sir," said the boy politely.
The agent walked across the lone

without receiving an answer returned
to the youth, saying:
"I thought you said your mother was
