May 7.? (Via London.)?The British
V; vo pushed their way well within
thr town uf Bullecourt. Hand to hand
training has developed there.
Renewed f'ghting broke out about
Buliecoui t today. The British who
had been holding positions south and
east of the villages, where they had
been violently attacked during the
last four days, moved forward just
before dawn in a general attack upon
the village itself.
Tnore has been patrol fighting in
RuUocourt before this, but today's
attack was of an enveloping nature.
It met v ith stubborn resistance, but
st ady progress was being made as
this dispatch was written, and khakiel.<d
troops have passed well within
the town, which lies absolutely
a.'tride the Hindcnhuig line, the front
trench and two systems of support
tyt aches all being within the village
limits.

positions between the Soissons-Laorroad
and Allies and north of Laffau>
have been maintained, says the official
statement issued today by th<
German army headquarters s.aff.
The Germans, it is added, also were
successful in the Aisne battle. The
Germans have captured 720 men since
Saturday. Fourteen British and
French airplanes were brought down
yesterday on the western front.
Taris, May 7.?The Germans cor.centra
ted their efforts yestcrday

frmt in ihe region of Laffaux and in
the afternoon on the eastern section
fr< m Bra ye to Craonne. But the
F era h held the wh;p hand and boat
o'f wave upon wave of the enemy's
d .indiing reserve, with terrible lossc.
More than that, the Frenchmen,
alter hours of stiff fighting, still had
the energy to dash forward and gain
od fresh positions in the region naturally
fortified.
The desperate resi tarce of the,
Germans and the frequent counter
attacks in f>rce are comprehensible]
when it is realised that if the French
caputre Aiiemant and I'inon they
will outflank the whole line runningnorth
to St. Quentiu. General N'iv?:

' On the right wing, German batal1>mis

It would seem difficult for the
'Germans to prevent the French from
reaching the Oise canal and the Ai)c*te

What say you men of Horry? Wo

the Conscript Bill which will de>ar
many of our men who would
otherwise have gladly volunteered

continues long or terminates scon,
Horry County needs an organization
