MEAGER DISPATCHES SO STATED

FIFTY AIRSHIPS BEADY :

Few Brief Bulletins Were All the *
News The Country Had Owing to c.
the Strict Censorship of Telegrams ^
and Cables?Germans Within Twen- I
ty Miles of Paris. r
A news dispatch reaching this coun- a
try last Friday stated that the Ger c
man right was at the rear of the re- 1
treating French who were falling r
back through Creil, Senlis and Crepyen-Valois.
This news would place ?
the advance of the German host with- *
in perhaps twenty miles of the limits- 1
of Paris on that day.
Four Battles. *
The armies of Germany, Austria A
Russia, France and Great Britain L
were still at death grips in four colos- 1
sal battles. A few brief bulletins con- *
veyed all the important facts that the 1
peoples of Europe knew about the warj s
Dispatches Short. ! *
English newspapers in the lack of 1
definite news of battle were filled !
with stories about wounded soldiers 1
who saw some scrap of the great con- (
flict and with reports from corres- 1
pondents far behind the fighting lines. ^
Last Stand of Allies.
Last week yielded little definite *
news of the progress of the battle *
in northern France. The public was 1
prepared to learn that the German
advance had continued to the outer
lines of the defenses of Paris. There
it was expected that the allies would
make a stand on the line from Verdun
to the sea and attempt with all their
might to stay the German avalanche.
Russian Triumph.
The British public turned hopeful 1
eyes toward the east, where the tri- *
umph of Russian arms in the Aus- 1
trians' province of Galicia had been 1
amply confirmed. In addition to the *
battle of Lemberg, in which the flower
of six Austrian army corps were ^
destroyed, it was evident that there (
had been a simultaneous victory at *
Tomaszow, a town of some importan- 1
.? ce 30 miles southeast of Lodz, in Rus- 5
sian Poland.
The veil of secrecy over the western
area of the fighting?the country
north of Paris?never had been harder
to penetrate. There is no evidence
at hand to show that the persistent 1
advance of the Germans had been appreciably
checked; on the contrary, at 1
least one point, the German contact 1
was within 20 miles of the outer fortifications
of Paris.
See Fifty Airships.
Two American oil engineers who
have reached London from Rumania
via Budapest and Berlin report that i
Breslau and the whole of Silesia is *
heavily mined. j
Food was extremely cheap in Ber- j
lin, they said, and all restaurants had J i
largely reduced their tariffs. Business ^
was proceeding as usual, though re- 1
cruiting stations in Unter den Linden ^
had hundreds of men waiting to be \
the flying station and estimated thai s
over 50 Zeppelins were in readiness I 1
to start at any time. There were also *
a hundred or more aeroplanes there, i
Scores of ?i?rnnhm<?K aotm 5?-? fV-w? I
air at one time by them.
From the general conversation they
heard while in Germany they gathered
that there woud be a combined at- ^
tack by the naval fleets at an auspic- '
ious moment. *

PEACE IN EUROPE, t
ONLY COTTON REMEDY, f
t
So Declares Representative Slayden J
of Texas in Speech in Congress.
Washington, Sept. 3.?Represents- c
tive Slayden, of Texajs, declared in <
the house today that only. peace in r
Europe could bring a solution of. present
difficulties in the American cot- c
ton industry. He s(iid he believed .a
President Wilson could be relied upon *
"to exert all his influence for peace.
"The trouble is not a lack of trans- I
po'rtation," said Representative Slay- t
den, "traffic is now moving out of *
Galveston, New Orleans and Atlantic t
ports, in a way that bids fair to force c
n rof 11 rn a nAHmnl -1 -

tions very soon. The trouble is a
lack of buyers, and the European
mills cannot buy until they have men
and money to manufacture it. These
can be secured only through a cessa- ,
tion of war." r

Authorities of the Dickenson coun- I
ty jail took extra precautions for the P
safety of Hamilton Mullins, an aged e
farmer under arrest charged wdh

JULES VERNE'S DREAM. I S
"ome Marvels of Romantic Fiction
r
Actually Being Realized.
(From the Philadelphia Ledger)
Underwater craft have made mark- H
;d progress since those early days
vhen the first Holland boat dived w
:lumsily, like a rheumatic porpoise, oJ
ind the first lake boat bowled merrily
ilong, like an ocean wagon, on the di
tmooth floor of the Atlantic between ci
Sandy Hook and the capes of the te
^hesepeake. We have now a fair fleet ol
>f submarines?31 afloat and 21 build- t!
ng. A squadron of these invisible b<
ighters guards each entrance to the T
5anama Canal. In size, recent subma- a
ines approach that of small gunboats si
ind destroyers. Great Britain has six
>f 1,200 tons, and France, two of ai
.,043 tons. The crew of such a boat tc
anges from 30 to 40 men. bi
Thus far no nation has ventured to fi
tend its submarines out to serve on! hi
no high seas. They have been always w
'datively small boats for coast de- fi
"once driven by gasoline engines on u
he surface and by electric power, bi
,vhon submerged. Now, however,
lules Verne's dream of the Nautillus, n
ander Capt. Nemo, is to be realized in ti
he advent of the submarine crusier, u
vhich?on the surface in peace and p
submerged in action?will accompany 1
Kittle fleets on the oceans of the
vorld. The British navy is the pio- U
leer in this development. While the w
letails are carefully guarded, the gen- w
?ral view of naval experts is that the si
projected vessels are to be of about o
L,500 tons displacement and 21 knots C
;urface speed, and that they will be
itted with five or six torpedo tubes tt
?or underwater attack and two twelve f.
rounder guns for repelling aerial t;
raft. The submerged battle speed \ n
)f these vessels should not be less tl
.ban 15 knots. Our navy department; p
s meeting this advance in the project1 tc
>n an experimental sea-going subma- si
*ine, for which the naval appropria;ion
bill carries an appropriation of t<
51,100,000. The chief difficulty to be , u
net is that of underwater driving at p
.he high speed demanded. Electric f<
propulsion, owing to the bulk and si
wpiirlif ftf thn npi'oseflru ctrvrfwrn K?1 + _
? - ?..v J OVV/l l?^c WMV
;eries, may have to be abandoned. li
This evelopment, if successfully ef- a
fected, forshadows another radical b;
change?the disappearance of the tor- c<
3edo boat destroyer, which the subma- li
rine cruiser, when in action on.'the n
iurface, should replace. In future
laval actions the combatant vessels p
would then be battle ships on the sur- c<
face, submarine cruisers below it, and r
aeroplanes and dirigibles above, in; b
which the chief enemies of the sub- s
marines would be the aerial cruisers.
Prom his height the aviator can read- tl
ily detect submerged bodies, owing n
:o his freedom from the effect of re- t<
fleeted light at the surface of the wa- tl

HOULD NOT SELL;
BUT SHOULD HOLD
he Cotton Situation Written for the
Herald by Mr. John C. Spivey,
Experienced Buyer.
orry Herald:?
It is with pleasure that I comply
ith your requ st ' > give my opinion
T the cotton .situation.
I wish to say in the first place that
jring my seven years experience as
>tton buyer, I have never had to coniiicl
with similar conditions. I have
ftcn not been able to pay the price
iat I wished to pay, but have never
sen limited as to quantity before,
he present condition, as I see it, is
serious one and one in which we all
lould be interested.
The war troubles in Europe have
\d will prevent the export of the cotm
and the buyers will be forced to
.1:?-*1- - * '
.isi- mm- minis on wr.at tney can get
om the home mills, and will also
ave to limit the quantity to that
liich they can sell. In view of these
icts, I see no hope of higher prices
ntil conditions are such that it car
e exported.
I want it understood that I stain
:-ady to buy the cotton and will at al
mcs offer the best price possible, bill
nder the present conditions am
rices I would advice no one to sell
would by all means advise holding
Now as to how to hold. Of course
lis is not a difficult matter for those
ho are able to hold, but for those
ho are not able to hold I could nol
nggest a better plan than that laie
ut by the Wilmington Chamber ol
ommerce.
"First. That every town in the cot)?i
section, through community efjrt,
establish warehouses adequate
> safely store one-half of the crop
ormally marketed at such place ane
lat frame builelings designed for this
urpose be covered with metal so as
> increase protection anel reduce inLirance
rates.
"Second. That the citizens of 2
>wn establishing a warehouse, organic
a warehouse company for the pur
ose of issuing authoratative receipti
:>r stored cotton, to be used as a ba
is of credit with the local banks.
"Third. That the local banks mak<
beral advances on cotton so store(
nd protected, and use their nationa
ank correspondents freely for re-dis
aunts?thus making it possible t<
mit offerings to commercial de
land." )
* )
I am heartily in favor of the abov<
lan. It appears to me hat this plar
ould be worked in Conway and Hor
y County with but very little expense
y using our tobacco warehouses foi
torage houses.
I feel that the farmers should tak<
iie lead in this matter, and the busi
ess men should also do all they coult
a assist in the matter. And I knov
ley will do it. This is one of tin
lings in which every person is inter
sted and no one can not afford to lent
helping hand.
Now as to the future crop, I hav<
othing to say except I would not adise
cutting down of acreage sinct
ur acreage is now so much lowei
lan that of other states. I fail t(
ae how this would help our Countj
nd State unless all the other Statei
ill do likewise. Respectfully,
J. C. Spivey.

First Proposal of Peace.
' The first concerted proposal for a

! peace in waring Europe was announc5
ed in New York last Saturday by Mrs

5 How Do You Laugh?
i Refinement can be indicated as
strongly by the manner in which a
person laughs as by the tone of the
L speaking voice. If some people could
hear the tone they use while laughing
they would doom themselves to per- j
petual sadness. A .real heartv 1a.ii ah '
. - - - ? ?" ? ? ?I
' Is like a tonic to the system. It not
only does the person good who enjoys
It, but it does everyone good who
> hears it. Of such laugh there is no
1' criticism. But there are people who
11 do not enjoy laughing, but who laugh
. j in a forced and artificial manner, and
) I generally at the most impossible moment.
An affected laugh, by either a
man or a woman, is a counterfeit of
the true feelings. There is po neces
sity to laugh loudly; the heartiest
i laugh is the eoftest in tone. Remem
her, when laughter is natural it is irre;
sistible and beautiful; and when it is
r forced it falls like rasping brass upon
refined ears.
