Hundreds of Homes Are In
Line of Fire From the
French Forts
MANY SUBURBAN TOWNS
TO BE DEMOLISHED
Governor's Order is to Clear
Way So Enemy Will Have
No Protection
WASHINGTON, D. C, Sept. f.. A
circle of country thirty-four miles
long Is being swept of buildings by
order of the military governor of
1'nrln thnt residents of tho "zono of
octlon" of the French capital's do-
renuing forts hum their homes In
anticipation of a siege. The order
refers to tho suburban territory JttBt
beyond the city's second lino of de
fenses, composed of seventeen con
necting foils.
Theso are located In a wide clrclo
about two miles outside tho Inner
wall of Paris. They lie for tho most
part among famous suburban towns
such ns Neullly, Versailles, Vluccnncs
niul sweep every approach to tho city.
It Is assumed that tho governor's or
der Is Intended to clear tho way In
front of these defenses thnt no pro
tection will he afforded nu advancing
enemy.
Tho order probably applies also to1
tho outer clrclo of tho city's triple '
line of defenses. These nro the most I
modern of the forts. They nro built j
of steel and masonry mid known to
bo equipped with tho heaviest guns,
of the fnmoiiB French artillery, nl-
largo proportions ns In the case of
tho second line forts, which nre Im
bedded among costly dwellings and
thriving towns.
Something of the magnitude of the
defenses of Paris Is shown by est I
motes that only nn army of n half
million men could hone to Invest
them and cut them oft from tho out
side world. Several of tho forts still
hear tho names under which they re
sisted the German assaults In 1870,
but they linvo been remodeled and
newly equipped many times ns tho
science of gunnery progressed and
todny aro considered by military ex
ports among tho strongest defense
works In the world.
Tho two outer lines nre so placed
thnt each fort has a cross flro over
the territory swept dlrectlv by tho
guns of ndjolnlng forts. Tho result
Is to mako attackers faco fire from
both flanks, ns well as the front In
advancing on any position.

ROTTERDAM, Sept. ft Tho prnc
tlcnl way In which the Germans view
the war Is well Illustrated by n story
told hero by A. R. Miller of Louis
ville, Ky.
"A ccrtnlu Protestant clorgymnn of
llnnover," Bnld Mr. Miller, "address
ing a largo congregation on tho morn

other things:
"'Wo nro now face to faco with n

el a dollar slip through their fingers. If you have a debt to pay
you deny yourself unnecessary things so that you may meet
your payment. There are so many little things on every side to
take a person's money that if you have not some place to put it,
it is apt to be wheedled right out of your poekMt ere you realize
it. The prices on all necessities are not so high as to make a
home prohibitive if two people make up their minds to linvls one.
If you doubt this, talk to some of the home owners in FIRST

have accomplished for them. Then you yourself resolve that a
home is worth the effort necessary to get it.

Some otic of these men may
carry off the honors of tho war.
There nro others In tho various
countries Involved who may
achieve world-wide distinction,
but so far tho hostilities have
not progressed fur enough to re
veal his Identity.
Germany. Franco and Austria
were ready for this war long before
octunl hostilities were declared. This
was 8trongl evidenced by the pa
triotic spirit displayed by tho sub
jects of each country. To n closo
observer. It was clear thnt war was
Impending, with the French mid
Germans ready to fly nt each other's
throats at a moment's notice.
So said a Clnciunntlan Just return
ed from Kurope after n two months'
tour of Germany, Austria and Franca
The Austrian peoplo wcro greatly
shocked nt the assassination of tho
Archduke Franz Ferdinand mid his
coiiBort, but It had ninny times beeu
predicted Hint Fcrdlnnnd would nev
er live to ascend the Austrian throne.
In Germany the warlike spirit was
noticeable, although thero was no
open talk of conflict. Hut regi
ments upon regiments of Gemma
soldiers were to bo seen marching
the streets constantly. In Frnnc
the spirit was tho snmo, but tho
activities of the military men wcro
not so apparent.
Wo In America do not renllzo tho
strong racial feeling prevailing
ntiioug the subjects of tho various
European powers. In Europe, each
country fears tho other, and became
of the fear, they hate accordingly.
It wns my observation that whllo
the Immediate cmiBo of the war was
the jnurdor of tho Austrian arch
duke nil tho nations concerned hnv
known for years that this struggle
was coming. Cincinnati Knqutror.
Russian Advance In
Eastern Prussia
Till? advance of tho huge Russian
army now In eastern Prussia
will not bo In the unturo of a
parado. The principal German forces
nro now occupied on tho French fron
tier, mid Germany must defend a
frontier of 7T.0 miles that has no
great natural barriers. Nevertheless
tho ndvanco toward Uerllu Is likely
to be a slow one.
To tho north, uenr tho llaltlc, nro
tho fortresses of Konlgsberg and
Dnutzlg. KonlgBborg cnunot bo sur
rounded ns long ns the German fleet
commands tho llaltlc. Tho Frlscho
llnff, whoso cntrnuco Is fortified, Is
an Interior waterway, resembling our
own Chesopcnke, that extends from
Konlgsberg nlmost to Dnutzlg. Tho
two fortresses thus supporting olio
n not her, can ho reinforced and re
vlctualled by sen. South of Dnutzlg,
whoso environs In tho Vistula delta
can be flooded, Is Thorn and botwecn
Is Grnudenz. Finally, further to tho
southeast nro tho grent works of
Poseu, to reach which an enemy must
cross a country much cut up by long
hikes running from north to south.
Taken together, Konlgsberg, Dnutzlg,
Thorn mid Posen nro n series of fort
resses difficult to Invest nnd danger
ous to leave uninvested.
The region wherein tho Russians
mo now operating Is filled, to thorn,
with doleful associations. It Is tho
region of Kylnu nnd Frledland, tho
two victories over tho Russians nnd
Prussians thnt won for Napoleon tho
penco of TlUlt. Intorsborg, occuplod
by tho Russians Inst week, Is but a
fow miles from tho bnttlotleld of
Frledland, mid tho field of Kylnu Is
hut a short dlstanco nwny. Thon
Great Britain nnd Prussia wcro In
nlllnnco with Russln. Whon Konlgs
berg, tho last rnfugo of tho unfortu
nnto Prussian king, was taken, 100,
000 muskots woro capturod which
Great Drltaln had Just forwarded to
ronrm tho Prussian army. Russia's
ontrnnco Into tho war was duo to a
chivalrous desire to bolp Prussia,
then receiving from tho dragoons of
Napoleon a treatmont not dissimilar
to that tho nolglans aro receiving
from tho uhlans of tho knlsor.
Now Grent Hrltnln, Russia nnd
Franco march against Gormany, ovon
as a hundred years ago Great Drltaln,
Russln nnd Germany marched against
Franco. What was tho underlying
reason for tho old nlllnnco, linking
together people of diverse Interest?
It wns tho fenr of French Imperial
ism. What was tho uaws that stead
ily cnuio during tho long wars? Re
ports of victories by tho great mili
tary mnchluo of Napoleon, an instru
ment ho know bo woll how to linndlo.
Time has swept on by a century.
Thoro Is now a union against Ger
many based on a similar fear of mili
tary Imperialism, and tho news Is of
successes gained by tho masters of
tho world b groatest military mach
ine. Napoleon said that tho charges
mado against him wero untrue that
tho desiro of his heart was poaco.
Ho was annoyed oven as tho kaiser
Is now annoyed thnt tho world would
not accept his hcuovolont assurances.
Ho pointed to benefits conferred nnd
civilization advanced wherever tho
French Influence had gone. Hut tho
world then, even nB now, wnB pro
vlnclally patriotic. Nations prlzo
their own faulty ways to hotter ways
Imposed by forco, nnd so, If thoro
were Marengo, Austerlltz, Jcnn,
Kylnu mid Frlcdlnud, thero woro also
Leipzig and Waterloo.
