Good neighbors they will be and we note the day with DOUBLE STAMPS AND A COUPON WARSAW BELIEVED SAFE relroarad Drdnces That Germans Arc I'sins Their Ferret Railway System to Reinforce Line Jn Poland at New Tolnt. LONDON, Feb. 27. News that the Russians had recaptured Stanislaus was received in London today from Hertza, Rotimanla. It was said also that Koio mea had fallen into Russian hands. The Importance of this news is due to the indication it conveys that the Austrian advance into Kastern Galicia nad uean definitely checked. Htirr flehting preceded the recap ture of these two towns. The Russians occupied Stanislaus on Friday. Advanc ing in force from that point, tney at tacked the Austrian position at Kolo inea. The Austrians offered determined resistance, but Anally were forced to give way. Warsaw Regarded as Safe. The Russian staff believe that "War saw is safe for the present from at tack, the German center having; been turned from it original purpose or aa vancing on that point, which Germany is said to desire to Bold lor poimcaj as much as for military reasons. The rfinnotrh from Petrograd said: "The German infantry forces are be ing thrust back across the River le men. in Northern Poland, and the Rus sian general staff believes that another German plan of attack upon Warsaw has been countered successfully. "Relationship is divided between the stubborn effort- of the Germans to cut railroad communication to the north of Warsaw and the coincident resump tion of pronounced activity near Borjj mow. on the Central Poland front west of Warsaw. To quote the opinion of a staff officer, as deduced from these operations by the Germans at widely separated centers: "'Evidently the Germans intend to push forward again in the center. For this purpose they need reinforcements ot troops on the Borjlmow front.' In the Kovno district activity Is diminish ing'. Hence it is evident that the Ger mans are again using their perfect rail way system to throw over troops from Kovno toward Borjlmow. Attempt to Cat Rallread Fall. " "In order that we shall not be able to do the same thin? namely, rush troops southward to the Baura and Rawka rivers the Germans are making desperate efforts, first with cavalry and then with infantry, to cut the rail road from "Warsaw north to Vllna. Thanks to the watchfulness of our commanders and to the Indomitable energy of our troops, the efforts of the enemy have been futile.' "This officer added that even though the German plans had succeeded, this achievement would not have influenced greatly the Russian position at Borjl mow, so long as the other railroad lines from Warsaw to the frontier remained in commission. He said further that the success which the Russians are re- , ported to have gained at Przasnysz had uncovered the German right flank. operating at Ossowetz, where the artil lery engagement still remained unde cided." Isolated Corps Fightinc Way Out. A dispatch to the Times from Petro grad says that information has been received in the Russian capital that several units belonging to the Twen tieth Corps, which was surrounded by the Germans in the retreat from Hast Prussia, still are fighting stubbornly nj probably will be able to rejoin the Russian army. Wireless dispatches from Berlin say Vienna asserts that the Austrians are vastly increasing the number of Rus sian prisoners in their hands. It is said that the Russians have abandoned their attempt to force the Dukla Pass, and they remain entrenched. Their attacks have been bravely carried out. and they have tasted . the steadfastness of the Austro-Hungarian troops to the utmost. The possession of Stanislau Is im portant for the Russians because of the railroad lines running from there into the Carpathians, ami for the reason it would prevent, according to the view held in Vienna, the encircling of the Russian left wing.. ptoxv j'ctu ---- . .

This report says that showers of burning liquid rained on the French trenches in a wood near Melincourt. The French, badly burned, were compelled to retire, but they as sert that they checked the enemy and inflicted heavy losses, taking several prisoners. Attacks by the allies in the Cham pagne region continue vigorously, ac cording to both the French and the German reports. Paris says gains were made. Berlin says only that fighting in some places still continues. Other wise, it adds, the enemy was repulsed. The -French official report issued early today said: "In Champagne nothing has devel oped since yesterday's communication. . "Our artillery in the Argonne ex ploded an ammunition depot near St. Hubert. In the wood near Melincourt, between the Argonne and the Meuse, the enemy again sprayed our advanced trenches with burning liquid, necessi tating the abandonment of the trenches, the occupants of which were asriously burned. A counter-attack immediately checked the Germans, who suffered losses. Including a number of prisoners. "In the region of. Verdun and .on the heights of the Meuse our heavy artil lery wrecked some German guns, ex ploded about 20 ammunition wagons, annihilated a detachment and de stroyed an entire camp. In the Boise Brule the battle continues to our ad vantage." The official report issued tonight In Paris was as follows: "In the dunes near Lombaeretzyde one of our patrols captured a German trench, killed the occupants and took a machine gun. - "In Champagne our progress of Fri day evening to the north of Mesnil-Les-Hurlus has made us masters of 500 meters of German trenches, where we made about 100 prisoners and cap tured two machine guns and one quick firer. This attack was brilliantly car ried out with the bayonet. Fresh PrKrfM Asserted. "A strong German" counter-attack was repulsed in the course of Friday night. We made fresh progress today to the west ot Perthes and to the north of Beausejour. In Lorraine, at Laneu veville, near the forest of Parroy, a German attack was repulsed." An official supplementary note is sued in Paris says that a squadron of German aeroplanes has bombarded the district behind Nieuport. Only two casualties were reported, a woman and an old man having been either Injured or killed. The note also says a French aviator dropped three bombs on the German barracks at Metz, Lorraine. The German War Office report issued at Berlin today follows: "In Champagne yesterday and last night there were renewed strong French attacks. Fighting in some places still continues; otherwise the at tacks were repulsed. "'North of Verdun the Germans at tacked a portion of the French posi tion. Fighting still continues.". !

HARRISBURG, Pa!? Feb. 21. Expres sions sucn as ' putting on uus, sums to the dogs" and "dogging one's steps" ran riot in the House today when Rep resentative Habgood, of McKean, of fered a bill which would tax dogs of a taxable age." It would tax them just as men are taxed, but instead of a re ceiver of taxes, a aog commissions would be authorized in all cities, boroughs and townships, and, so that there may be no mistake about it. it specified that the commissioner be a person. The annual taxes wouiu range from si to z. aepenains on whether the household pet wen wale or female. This extract shows how cioseiy tne dog would be watched: "No tax shall be required upon any dog under the age of four months or upon dogs on exhibition, sent or brought from other states, provided that a record is kept by the owner or keeper of such dogs, describing the dog or dogs, showing size, color and mark ings and the date ot entry, oucn rec ords shall be sworn to by a citizen and before a qualified officer.

One shell, at 11.000 yards, hit the Agamemnon, killing three and seriously wounding five. The Irresistible and Gaulois made excellent practice on Forts C and L, while the Queen Elizabeth concentrated with great accuracy on Fort A. putting both of its guns out of action by about 11:30 A. M. Destruetion Made Complete. "The Vengeance and Cornwallls then ran in under cover of long range fire and engaged Fort A at close range. The reduction of Fort A was com pleted, while Forts C and D opened a slow and inaccurate fire. "The Suffren and Charlemagne next delivered an attack on Forts C and L, advancing to within 2000 yards of them. It was then seen that they were In no condition to offer an effective resist ance. "The Vengeance. Triumph and Albion were then ordered into complete the reduction of the fortifications. All four were reduced by 5:15 P. II.

"A report also has been received of the operations of February 26.
