Several reports cor tea. I t hat the!
Germans have withdrawn from tins
town, but this is not corbrmod net is
the report that they evacuated Cour- ;
rtai,30 miles northwest, it seems plain 1
that the menace here grew marked <
and that the German army operating ]
along the coast of Flanders found it- 1
self in peril of being cut off from the 1
main body. ]
What oposition they met along the
sea is only guess work.
Withdrawing from Ostend
All reports seem to agree that Os- <
tend practically is clear of Germans, $
who apparently are reforming to the .
south with reinforcements and the
siege guns used to batter the Belgian
forts and that they now propese to
hammer on toward Dunkirk and Ca- j
lais. One report says thev are be- i
vond Flanders less than 10 miles from j f
Dunkirk. \
Further south in France reinforce- |
ments from Brussels are said to have
been brought up before Lille, which
the Germans are reported as bombarding.
1
The Belgians themselves, according i
to last night's Paris official communication,
have held the Germans in an
attempt to cross the River Yser, south
west of Dixmudc, Belgium. This was <
the first heard of the Belgian forces f
since the evacuation of Antwerp.
King Albert, unheard of for some
time, is said to have cheered the men
in the field.
c
Some of the Londan papers describe
I
the German evacuation of Osteml as j.
a retirement to the east on the theory ,
that the allies' progress to the south. L
threatened to isolate the Or.tend garrison,
making a retreat imperative. I
The dispatches are far from unrnimous
on the direction of the retire- i

? Though there was a sporadic re- j
currence of the anti-German rioting p
in parts of London early today, police c
protection in such places has been in- j j.
creased and no serious outbreaks were y
reported this afternoon in the city, .
but at SalYon-Waldon in Essex, an y
English lawyer's house was attacked i
because it is said he had been har- c
boring two Germans. In the continuation
of the rioting last night a Ger- ?.
man grain dealer's home and store
were wrecked and burned.
Russians are Gaining.
In the eastern war area the great
battle of Poland seems to be progressing
in favor of the Russians who (
claim to have checked decisively the
German forces in their attempt to
cross the Vistula.
Around Przcmvsl the Austriars

A good place to feel the pulse of *
ivic life is at the public drinking *
rough. The ebb and flow of animal ,
ife, as it quinches its thirst at the f
public fountain gives us an estimate
>f the wealth, population and pros>erity
of the commuity; the character
labits and occupations of its people <
md the utility, pleasure and hard- 1
hips of its citizens. There is no bet- 5
or place to study the progress of the 1
ommunity than at the town pump. 1
Every village in South Carolina
ihould have a town pump and every
ity with waterworks should have a
1 ringing fountain where a stream of
rare running water, freely dispenses
Adams Ale to the thirsty populace.
Pure water and plenty of it is a good
commuity builder.

ALMOST TO DEATH
Young Man and Young Woman Botl
Found Almost Beaten to Deatl
In Rear of a Cemetery in Nortl
Carolina City, Police Trying to Sol
ve it.
One of the most mysterious crime*
that has ever been committed ii
North Carolina is puzzling the police
C* T~*v 1 "
oi uurnam, and so far tho officers
l:nvo been unable to find out who beat
Mr. John Thomas and Miss Lula
Powe so terribly and left them back of
the cemetery for dead. Both are in
the hospital, and their faces are in
such a condition that neither can talk
Mr. Thomas was found Friday night
and carried to the police station first
and then to the hospital. About 10
o'clock that night he crawled to the
home of a Mr. Coley, on Maplewcod
avenue near tho cemetery, and asked
that something be done for him. His
face was beat into pulp, his eyes nearly
closed from the blows dealt there,
and his mouth so dadly swollen and
lacerated that he could hardly tell
what had happened to him.
Mr. Coley at once notified the police
station and an ambulance was sent
for him. At the station Thomas said
that he was attacked by a band of negroes
who robbed him of a watch and
some other valuables. He had r.o
idea who the negroes were, and did
not know just where the trouble occur
red. He did not mention the fact that
the young lady was with him at the
time of the assault.
Miss Powe was not found until next
morning when several negroes discovered
her as they were going on to
their work. They at once notified the
police station and the young woman
was attended to. She was found unconscious
back behind the cemetery
fence with her face battered almost
as badly as that of Mr. Thomas.
There were signs that she had been
out all night, but she was also unable
to give any account of her terrible experiences.
She was carried to the
hospital.
Both of the young people live in
West Durham and work in one of the
mills of the city. So far as is known
both are sober and reliable. Miss
Powe has been one of the steadiest
Li'Avlvirc in liAr rlrmo vf m nnt T f o caul
that the two young people have been
sweethearts for the past three years,
and expected to get married some
time in the near future. There was
no objections on the part of the parents
to their association, and there
.vas no quarrc-l between the two or
.vith any other person so far as the
narents of the young woman know
ibeut.
Tt is presumed that the two were
>n their way to the fair grounds, fcr
:here is a short cut from West Durham
avound behind the cemetery,
ivhen a band of robbers assaulted the
nan. The woman began yelling and
,he robbers silenced her.
The police have been working on
he case, but have found no clue. The
mly thing that caused them to know
:hat the two young people were together
was the fact that Miss Powe
vas lying on Mr. Thomas' coat when
she was found, this morning.
The Auto in tlie Field.
It is quite a common sight in South
Carolina to see farmers drive to the
harvest field in automobiles. It takes
i solemn sum of money to buy an automobile
and it takes good roads, as
veil as gasolene, to run them.
A joy ride in the harvest fields of
this State is one of the most exhilarating
experiences that is available on
this continent and one that would
charm a tourist and convince a homeseeker.
A speedway lined with growing
crops and blooded stock is a landscape
that one seldom tours in a
lifetime. In mapping out automibile
routes in South Carolina harvest fields
should be given prominent position.

^GERMANY'S REASONS
f FOR GREAT If
ITS HATRED OF RUSSIA IS 01
) LONG STANDING AND HATRED
FOR FRANCE DEEP
(From European War at a Glance]
Germany is the alley of Austria
Hungary by the Triple Alliance. Iti
hatred against Russia has been o
long standing, and its diplomats hav<
noted Russia's ambition to advanc*
its own interests through Austria
^ Hungary. Its hatred for France, too
is deep and of long standing. Ac
11 cordingly, when war was immincn
1 between Austria-Hungary and Russh
- Gcrmmy's sympathies were with th<
former.
Czar Nicholas communicated witl
'{Kaiser Wilhelm, asking him to us<
I his good offices to establish peace be|
i tween himself and Austria. While
; messages were being interchanges
' between Russia and Germany, the
L. startling news reached the Kaiser's
ears that Nicholas was mobilizing his
1, vast army of 5,500,000 troops. The
Lj German ambassador waited upon the
I Russian minister of War, demanding
the cessation of -mobilization. This
request was refused. Three times
the German ambassador repeated his
request and three times received a
positive refusal. Thereupon diplomatic
connections were severed ami
Russia and Germany were at war.
*
Germany served a similar ultimatum
on France, which Franee likewise
refused, and before the expiration
of the ultimatum Germany had
j already began her invasion of the
French Republic.
In this conflict Germany is easily
the strongest single nation; the spirit
of militarism has been alive for years,
and it has been in active preparation
! for just such a crisis as this. Its
army is the best trained in the world,
1 and might be victorious, were it not
for the overwhelming odds against it.
