-A year aito a coalition with a pow
erful numerical superiority declared

situation by alternately taking the or-

and eastern fronts.
Hnlera reaJttoas Fortiried
"In the west, the German armlea. in
a rapid, triumphant advance carried
their standards within 6 miles of Paris
and have kept them flying- there since
mid - September. Even though the
right and left wines of our wide-flung
battle front In France and Belgium
have been bent back since then (be
cause there waa no other method for
the time being of counteracting the
numerical superiority of the British.
French and Belgians) still we hold the
positions, fortified during the nine
months, firmly in our hands, so that
almost all of Belgium and the north
eastern departments of France have
been ocupied by the troops of Germany.
-In the East, the Austro-German
armies held up the Russian millions on
the Galiclan frontiers and then were
forced to retire before a manifold nu
merical superiority, to intrench them
selves cn the crest of the Carpathians
and to beat back until May 1 the Rus

In East Prussia was able to destroy
several large Russian armies and free
East Prussia: to occupy conjointly with
Austrian troops Poland almost to the
Vistula River and in the northeast to
carry too war into the Russian
provinces.

"While the positions in the war In the

and Summer were repulsed with awful
losses to our enemies, the German and
Auetro-Hungarian armies, on May 1.
launched a great offensive aaainst the
Ruslan main armies in Gallcla.
"In a series of battles and under
constant pursuit the Russians were
hunted out of ii.t'0 square miles of
Gallcla. their principal force was sev
ered at several places and they were
driven eastward and northward.
-The west bank of the Vistula In
. Poland has been cleared of Russian
armies. The siege of Warsaw is about
to begin and Field Marshal von Hind
enburg In the northward has pressed
forward against Riga and now has
reached the vicinity of the city after
numerous victories. The successes of
the Germans have cost the Russian
army many millions in dead, wounded
and prisoners. The Russian Empire
possesses only fragments of Its mighty
armies and no longer can supply these
adequately with arms and munitions.
Their fate will be decided ahortly. The
Russian forces will be destroyed or
forced to flee deep into the Interior to
the eastward.
Allies' Leases la West Heavy.
"The battles In-the west have cut so
deeply Into the French strength that
now l-y ear-old lads must bear arms.
Great Britain's original array baa been
destroyed and only enouxh substitutes

Belgium. The British losses, particu
larly those of officers, have been heavy.
The army of S.OOJ.000 men which Lord
Kitchener promised six months ago,
has not yet appeared and our opponents
In the west never again will be able to
raise superior forces to expel the Ger
mans from the country.
-The action In the Dardanelles, which
has been In progress for months against
the Turks, shows results for the Brit
ish and French only in great losses of
men. ships and war supplies of all
kinds. The Turkish army steadily is
Improving in numbers and quality. The
- Turkish fortifications are quite as
strong as they were at the outset. The
prospects of the attackers reaching
Constantinople, therefore, have van
ished and alnce none of the Balkan
Ftates are willing to enter the Anglo
French service and since the Russian
army, which should have participated
from Odessa, has been destroyed In
Gallcla. It Is difficult to see any
chances for France and Great Britain.
ltallaa Attacks Fall.
"Should Italy send an army to the
Pardanelles. it will find a superior
Turkish army ready to receive her.
Italy, after conducting mobilisation se-cretly-for
nine months, entered the field
' against Austria-Hungary at the end of
May. An Italian army, 1.000.000 men
strong, has been atemptlng for two
months to sweep over the fortified
Austrian passes and to cross the Isonso
sliver, behind which the Austro-Hunaa-rlan
defensive army ocuples strong po
sitions. All the attempts of the Italians
up to the present have been unsuccess
ful. The cost of the attackera have
been hundreds of thousands in dead
and wounded. Austria-Hungarla grows
stronger day by day and although Its
valiant struggle Is a difficult one
against Italian superiority In numbers.
It will be able to bar the way to the
coastland and to Trieste and Tirol.
"Meantime Italy has lost her entire
colony at Tripoli to the Arabs and ap
parently is about to declare war on
Turkey.
The Serbian army, after great losses
In the Winter, has undertaken no mili
tary operations, being content to guard
the frontiers of Its country, on which
there no longer la an Austro-Hungarlao

He had secured two tickets for him

the distracted comedian, who ' ceased
at once to be a distracted comedian
and became a grateful one.
Laacheea No Stage Affair.
How he did enjoy that luncheon! He
knew It at once from stage food, and
between courses asked for the recipes.
The college senior who served him was
a busy young person, nt naa io Know
exactly how the souffle was made, and
when told, among other things, that It
must be "baked In a slow oven"
"Cruel!" he exclaimed; "sounds awful:

Shades of the chafing dish! He seems

was charmed with the "homlness" of
the whole thing, and said" nice things to
Mrs. Dolman about, It. And he carried
away the recipes! .
His next stop was at the manual
training exhibit from the Oregon high
schools. "Do you know," he expostu
lated, when I told him the dining set
was actually made by schoolboys. "It
simply couldn't happen. Boys make
that? You're fooling me." He went

at that moment the Round-Up movies

about it la the thrill the great audience

Items given out today by the Overseas
News Agency is the following:
"The German government has begun
a systematic gathering of figures and
statistics concerning existing supplies
of copper in every shape. It had been
known previously that in addition to
the Increase in copper production, the
supplies surpassed 2.000.000 tons, suffi
cient to meet war requirements for 10
years. "A large proportion of this total
is available without the adoption of
special measures. Other portions of it
will become available by the suDstltu
tton of other metal.
"With the Idea of obtaining complete
copper data to the end that systematic
preparations for the future be made
effective, the government has decided
to Investigate carefully what amount
of copper might bs found in the uten
sils. instruments, boilers and ' roofs
made of this metal."

The police, according to the travel

the State Department from Thomas
Sammons, American Consul-General at
Shanghai, on the status of the traffic
In the drug in that republic
The report shows that there has been
a sharp reduction In the Importation of
opium since 1910. The half century
annual receipts of that article of from
about 6.666.000 to 18.66(,000 pounds had
dropped in that year to 4,714,000. In
1914. importations were only 997,066
pounds, compared with 2,418.000 pounds
the previous year.
While the amount of opium Imported
has decreased, the value Increased. The
receipts in 1914, valued at $20,913,000,
were higher than for any year since
the curtailing of receipts began, ex

Spirit of Daring Offensive Declared
to Have Been Shown From
Beginnings Superiority of
Material Is Important..
BERLIN. July SI. Although the
main German and British fleets have
not been matched in battle, the end
ing of the first year of the war finds
that Germany has distinguished her
self at sea. savs CaDtain L Persius, in
a naval review prepared for the Asso
ciated Press. Captain Persius, for
merly an oiucer oi me Germany uj.
- .A.s.o-ntv, .Hthnrltv nn (German
naval affairs and is naval expert of
the Berliner Tageblatt.
He says that Germany's policy has
been to attempt to weaken her chief
and mines to a point where there will
be some prospect or success oi au at
tack on the main British fleet.
Daring Offensive Shown.
"The German fleet may boast that
the offensive spirit it has displayed
has constituted the most prominent and
decisive feature of all the naval war
lk..t..fl" enva th. . rAvlaw. "War
was declared against Russia on Au
gust 1, and on August 2 the cruiser
Augsburg bombarded the Russian war
port of Libau. The declaration of war
against France was issued August 3,
and on the following day the cruisers
Goeben and Breslau shelled the troop
embarkation points of Phillipeville and
Bona, on the North African coast.
"Finally, England declared . war on
August 4, and on the 8th the mine
layer Koenlgin Luise planted mines at
the mouth of the Thames, one of which
destroyed the cruiser Amphion.
"We thus see that from the begin

in European waters, but in distant

wherein our cruisers were engaged.
In a majority oi cases me iuicish
cruisers, like the home units, fought
against much superior forces. i
Gigantic Task Not Underestimated.
"In Germany the gigantic task of our
sea forces is in no wise underestimated.
We know that the British fleet alone,
so- far as material strength Is con
cerned, is considerably more than
twice our superior, but we are cer
tain that the same heroic spirit of
determination to win exists in the fleet
as in the army, and that we depend
upon the efficiency of our material,
which, even though inferior In quan
tity, can brave comparison with that
of any other power for excellence in
construction of artillery , and ma
chinery. ... .
"We do not forget that the British
fleet, first in the world and of glorious
history, is an opponent worthy of all
respect Nevertheless, at the close of
the first year of the war, it may be
said without exaggeration that its
achievements do not measure up to
our expectations. It. has- lacked, it
seems, the iron determination and abil
ity to conquer.
British Prestige Shaken.
"The British Admiralty has held
strictly to 'the strategy of caution.'
The German submarine danger is, .we
realize, partly responsible, but it can
not be questioned that, as a conse
quence of undeniably evident lack of
initiative, the prestige of the British
sea power no longer stands so un
shaken throughout the world as for
merly. British forces have been vic
torious only in engagements where
they were overwhelmingly superior, as
at the Falkland Islands, and even
this is not claimed by the British
press to be an unconditional success,
because the battle was too costly in
time and sacrifice."
"Our naval authorities followed gen
erally the principle of keeping battle
ships in harbor while attempting to
weaken the enemy through minor war
fare, particularly with submarines and
mines, to a point where an attack on
the main fleet will offer some pros
pect of success. How correct this
strategy was is proved by the past 12
months. Thanks to the effectiveness
of our submarines, which excited -the
justified admiration of the whole
world. It has been possible sorely to
wound the British fleet.

extraordinary advantage over a coun
try dependen. almost entirely, like
Britain, upon importations of food and
raw materials across the water. The
submarine 'danger unquestionably
weighs Ilka a nightmare upon the in
habitants of the sea-washed land. The
future results of the wide extension,
as we hope, of the fruitful activity of
our submarines cannot be predicted,
but the expectation is generally cher
ished in Germany that the submarine
campaign will help to accelerate the
demand for peace in England. ' j
"Every type of warship has fallen
victim to German submarines the
battleships Formidable, Triumph and
Majestic; the armored cruisers Hbgue.
Cresay and Aboukir; the Russian
armored cruiser Pallaba; the cruisers
Hawke and Pathfinder, and the British
destroyer Recruit, for example and
neither the express steamer nor the
slow fishing boat is safe from our
deadly torpedoes. ,
Aerial Efficiency Proved.
"In addition, the aerial arm of the
service has won many laurels. Zeppe
lins crossed the North Sea safely, even
to London and back, and German aero
planes participated in the destruction
of the enemies' war and merchant
ships. The question whether airships
and aeroplanes could be used offensive
ly at sea must, in the light of the
achievements of our aircraft, be
answered affirmatively.
"German aircraft have even fought
successful' against the dreaded sub
marines. A Russian submarine was
destroyed in the Baltic by bombs from
an aeroplane, and at least one British
submarine met the same fate in the
North Sea. .
"The general fear of submarines is
responsible for the remarkable spec
tacle of the heavily armed and strong
ly armored battleships rarely ventur
ing to leave sheltering harbors ships
which, before the war, were counted as
decisive factors In sea power, but
which find themselves condemned to
inactive roles.. Clashes of heavy bat
tleships, like those In distant waters,
have borne out the old rule that
superiority in numbers, artillery and
speed make up the decisive factor lor
victory.
Victory Lies With Big Guns.
"The British were defeated off
Coronel. Chile, because the Monmouth
and Good Hope depended for the most
part on six-inch guns, while the uer
man cruisers Gnelsenau and Scharn-
horst carried many 8.3-inch guns.
The victory at the Falkland Islands
was easy for the British battle cruls
ers Invincible and Inflexible and their
consorts because they mounted 12-inch
guns and also were much faster than
the German ships.
'In warshln duels also weight and
armament were decisive. The Sydney,
armed with six-inch guns, was thus
able to destroy the Emden, with only
4.2-inch cannon.
"The lessons which may be drawn
from past events may be summed up
brleAy as follows:
"Superiority of technical material
Dlays, as in earlier naval battles, an
important role, perhaps to a greater
extent now than before. Given crews
practically equal in skill, the side
which is Inferior in artillery and speed
is at so heavy a disadvantage that
victory is possible only under excep
tionally favorable circumstances.

TELLS SECRET
Detroit Beauty Doctor Gives Simple
Recipe to Darken Gray Hair
and Promote Its Growth.
Miss Alice Whitney, a well-known
beauty doctor of Detroit, Mich., re
cently gave out tha following state
ment: "Anyone can prepare a simple
mixture at home, at very little cost,
that will darken gray hair, promote its
growth and make it soft and glossy.
To a half 'pint of water add 1 ox. of
bay rum, a small box of Barbo Com
pound and oz. of glycerine. These
ingredients can be bought at any drug
store at very little coat. Apply to the
hair twice a week until the desired,
shade is obtained. This will make a
gray-haired person look 20 years
younger. It is also fine to promote
the growth of the hair, relieve itching
