\ ARMY DRAFT RULES HOW COMPLETED * Washington.?New regulations f~r applying the army draft wore virtually completed tonight at the office of the provo3t marshal general and prob ably will be submitted to President Wilson tomorrow for final approval. The president already has approved thi general plan, under which all rcgi?t,j|pro(l men not yet called will bo classified in five groups in accor 1- ' atu'e with their availability for mill- i tury service. Provost Marshal Gencra' Crowder tonight cleared up the question as to how the draft numbers now held bv the nearlv 9,000.000 un.' * i called registrants will be applied to | the new classifications. In each local district the key made ; un from the draft number in the order of their drawing will bo applied to each class or group. In other words, the men of Class 1, in which will vc pfciced those of the least value at I Vwjme, and with the slightest obhgations to dependents, will be called in the order of their serial numbers until that class is exhausted, just as though all other classes had been exhausted. When Class 1 is exhausted, the same p.ocess will he applied to Class 2 and so on down to Class 5. Thus a man whose series in the great war army lottery had led him to believe that he would he among the last summoned, may bo assigned to the fi:st class and ordered into scrwith the first quota. On the other hand another whose number assured him originally a place with the next increment may be so classified as to make it very certain he never will be called. o GIRLS!

"When any of us children complained of headache, usually caused by constipation, she gave us a dose of Black-Draueht. which would I rectify tho trouble. Often in the Spring, we would have malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take Black-Draught pretty regular until the liver acted well, and we would soon be up and around again. We would not be without it, for It certainly has saved us lots of doctor bills. Just a dose of BlackDraught when not bo well eaves a lot of days In bed." Thedford's Black-Draught has been In use for many years in the treatment of stomach, liver and bowel troubles, and the popularity which it now enjoys Is proof of its merit If your liver Is not doing Its duty, rou will suffer from such disagreeible symptoms as headache, biliousness, constipation, Indigestion, etc., ind unless something is done, serious trouble may result Thedford's Black-Draught hat been found & valuable remedy for these troubles. It Is purely vegetable, and icts In a prompt and hhtural' way, regulating the liver to Its proper 'unctions and cleansing the bowls of Impurities. Try it.

Vmericnn ships off the high seas hrouph her ruthless submarine wartiro was a direct blow aimed at the )respevity of American farms and of Vmeriran business, Secretary Mr- ^ \aioo declared in his Liberty Day ad- * Ivess here. After reminding his hearers that VmeHca went to war in 1812 to vindicate her freedom of the seas and had steadfastly maintained it since then to continued "Why- is that li^ht so wsential to America's life and security. It is because we have always p: educed more than we can consume 1 at home. Ard the very prosperity of mr people, their very life, in fact, dom\/\n h1 ' i 11 1 ' v.ivn iu.um,y ai an unv ^ j :< roll that surplus in the op< n mar-1 ko's of the world." The German emperor had been led by disloyal people in this country to believe that America never would ight, the secretary of the treasury cm tinned, "and that any transgrose'rn of our rights would be met simply by protests. ''Had America submitted and kept '.or ships of f the seas, discord and discontent among American people v.u'd have followed Mr. McAdoo said, and the German emperor by one' orokc of his pen would have accomplished "more destruction Upon Am?fican farms, in American factories and in American business bouses and to American interests all ovver this j 'and than ho could accomplish with ad the armies and navies of the German empire." After telling what stoppage of American sea commerce would have meant in loss to cotton growers of the South and of German's efforts to involve the United States with Japan and Mexico through the Zimmermann ntrigue, the secretary turned to ruth'ess submarine warfare, and recited the stories of helpless men and women being drowned at sea. "Some man has said, or is alleged :o have said, that America had no justification for this war with Germany," the secretary declared. "If there be on American, or any man in this land whether he is an American or not, who knowing this record, says that we did not have justification for 1 war with Germany, the yellow blood I flows in his veins?he hasn't any red j blood in him." Mr. McAdoo denounced those indi-j viduals who would make peace with i the kaiser's government and the "alhged peace societies" in this country. 'Phi latter are merely "German wolves masquerading in the hides of Amcie.an traitors," he declared, while some of the former are deluded and simple people and "some are in the pay of vhc kaiser." * | The secretary, who has completed a ' .cur through the West and Southwest; n the interest of the Liberty Loan,, said his trip had convinced him that j America is awake to the fact that this | t:*y is waging a war for self-presc? *vation and knows that when the :\\i v.ggle is carried to a successful con elusion the liberty of the United Stat- j os will never bo imperilled again. j! After describing the liberty bond which the government is selling a-u hi ving the entire country's guaran j < toe of the safety of the principal?the j' money invested in it, the secretary M p-'dod "but America cannot assure I 1 or soldiers of the principal?their { I ves. , * "The soldier does not ask the g v-' > nr.iont to guarantee him safely,"!1 ?i 1 (id Mr. McAdoo. expects to dioj if necessary, but he has a right to 3 Ai the ci . i'ir.n population to do this S lU'.ch for hirv--to arm him with t'n "st gun that American money a d Vim u'l-nui inge: uity can de\ is , :i gun ' at will shoot faster a <1 fartiu r t o r or* gun yet made, and give hhn the v >ejU bayonet that can be forg ul by ( a.n\oj*icaV. hill and brawn.

SEVEH iiS ARE NOT VERY SUCCESSFUL Germany for First Time Comes to Rescue of Army Battered Hard CAPTURE OF 6,000 IN SHORT TIME Jo Confirmation of Reported Resignation of German Chancellor. General Cadorna's skill and strate;\, which made possible capture of h( heights on the eastern bank of the fsonzo, is being put to the test by a strong Austro-German offensive on ? c front from Klitsell to the Bainsi/.11 plateau, northeast of Gorizia. The 'irst blow has been struck, but apparently with no great >ucceSs for the attackers. Austria's army could do little against the Italians, who were pressing forward and breaking the mor;de of the Austrian army. Tlie Chiapavr.no valley already had been entered and soon the Austrian force would have been cut into. Triest was t 1 I'O'i t <ino< i ?? ???? !

Germany, which up to this time, has sent little of men or munitions to thi.s front, has come to the help of the losing Ausrians, and it is German soldiers and German munitions anil guns that are thundering against Cadorna's defenses along the Isonzo. The Italians, General Cadorna reports, are "steady and prepared." After a heavy bombardment, the Austro-German infantry was thrown forward aganist the Italian position* near Flitsch, near Tolmino and on the northern part of the Buinsizza plateau, a front of 25 miles. The first blow brought no great gains, the Austro-Gcrmans, by their own report gaining only the foremost Italian defenses at these points. Generally the Italians have some tui vantage in terrain, but the Austrian;* and Germans hold many high mountain positions near the Italian lines. The Italians also are fighting with their backs to the Isonzo river. German Political Situation. The German political situation is .-till clouded, but the absence of definite news may be the calm before tho torm. Dr. Michaeli. , the bureaucraft chancellor, is reported to have placed his resignation in the hands of the Emperor, but there has been no conf 11 mat ion. Nearly all the political parties in the Reichstag have joined in the drive against Dr. .Michnelis, which became most intense when ho attempted to thiow the b'ame for the mutiny in die German navy onto the intlependt lit Socialists who have I o n persist ent hecklers of his policies. The furor raised by the announcement P the mutiny his suhsMcd apparently, but the government has taken no steps to prosecute the Socialist Deputies accused by Miekaelis and Admit ill von Capellc. Emperor William probably is in a (|Uandi y as to who to select for the hancollorship. Prince von Buelow is )p.posed by the Socialists and other Beichstag elements do not want von Bethmann-Hollweg returned. But Midiaclis evidently will go in order to ippease the wrath of the Reichstag, vhose opposition even the Emperor r.ust consider. o MENREGIMENTS GOING TO FRANCE Skeletonized Units to Form Rpscrvc from Which Pershing IVlay Draw.
