I
Fighting on Enemies' Soil Finds
Menace from Three Sides.
At all three points in the urea of
hostilities?in Silesia, in East Prussia
and in Alsace?the allied forces
were on German soil last Monday, and
f,
for the first time sine*# the outbreak
of the war conditions&seomed to pre- j
sage, in the opinion British military
observers, a reversal of the
rules of the contending armies.
U'p to this time Germany, generally
sneaking, has been fighting in the territory
of her enemies, hut now she
would appear to be more or less seriously
menaced from the cast by the
victorious armies of Grand Duke Nichj
olas, the Russian commander-in-chief
in the field, the advance guards of
which were less than 200 miles from
Berlin. It is true that there was a
brief Russian invasion of East Prussia
during the early stages of the war
while the French have for a long time
held their position in Alsace; but the
latest development in the Russian advance.
if the interpretation placed on
it in London is not all wrong, is tho
most important of the campaign up to
the present time. It is mere speculation,
of course, to say that Germany

from Belgium or even rouse hoi* offensive
in this arena. In certain areas
of F ranee and Belgium the allies are
taking a vigorous offensive, but it is
too early yet to predict that flt-rmany
will not renew her smashing tactics
in an effort to break through the line
and that there will not he much hard
fighting around Ypres.

from Belgium probably will be v< ry

GERMANS FLEEING FROM SILKSIAN
HOMES BEFORE RUSSIANS
APPEAR,?INVAS|
ION MAY BE DEFERRED.
Russia dominated the military situ
at ion tne first of this week. The speed
with which she cleared the invaders
from Russian Poland must necessarily
have a great effect on the campaigns
in the other war theatres.
Already the inhabitants are reported
fleeing from their prosperous Silesian
homes despite the fact that General
Von Hindenberg's strong army is
between them and the advancing Russians.
A message from Petrograd announces
that Russia may defer the invasion
of Germany until her historic
mission toward the Bosphorus is accomplished.
This mission includes the complete
subjection of Austro-Hungary as well
as the invasion of Turkey. If this is
the actual plan of Grand Duke Nicholas,
the Russian commander-in-chief,
the Russians may bo content to hold
their present positions along the German
border while making an aggresj
sive war toward the south and east.
Persistent reports continued to reach
London that the Germans are sending
| heavy reinforcements to their western
lines. News of a contrary nature, to
the effect that the Germans are pre- j
paring to retreat through Belgium, al-!
so rife, but the experts seem to place!
, more credence in the reports of reinforcements
and the coming week is'
I looked forward to as one of the most
j crucial of the war.
The latest" Paris oflicial communiea
ilion states that the invaders are eon-!
; centrating their activity about Ypres
without as yet achieving1 any result.;
The allies are reported as holding*j
their own everywhere on the Alsne;
; while to the northwest of Soissonsl

The Knocker's Prayer.
Lord please don't let this town grow
I've been here for thirty years, ami
during that time I've fought every
public improvement. I've knocked
everything and everybody, no firm or
individual has established a business
here without my doing all I could to
put them out of business. I've lied
about them, and would have stolen
from them if I had the courage. I
have done all I could to keep the
town from growing and never have
spoken a good word for it. I've knock
ed hard and often. I've put ashes on
the children's slide and I've made the
marshall stop the boys playing ball
on my vacant lot. Whenever I saw
anyone prospering or enjoying themselves
I've started a reform to kill the
business or spoil the fun. J don't
want the young folks to stay in this
town and I will do all 1 can by law,
rule and ordinance to drive them away
It pains me, O Lord, to see that in
spite of my knocking it is beginning
to grow. Some day I fear 1 will be
called upon to put down sidewalks in
front of my property and who knows
but what 1 may have to help keep up
the streets that run by my premises?
This, Lord, would be more than I could
bear. It would cost me money,
though all I have was made right
here in this town . Then, too, more
people might come if the town begins
to govv. which would cause me to lose
some of my pull. I ask therefore, to
keep this town at a standstill, that 1
may continue to he the chief. Amen.
