Moscow— British and French troops
have been landed at Mourmansk, on
the northeast coast o f Kola Peninsula,
in the Arctic Ocean, to reinforce a
British marine detachment sent ashore
several weeks ago. The entente allied
troops are co-operating with Bolshevik
forces in protecting Mourman coast
and the railway against attacks that
are being made by Finnish white
guards.
Russian red guards also are acting
with British and French troops under
the direction o f the Mourman soviet
war council, which consists o f one
Englishman, one Frenchman and one
Russian.
Finnish white guards have attacked
the Mourman railway near Kem, 270
miles south o f Mouamansk and 200
miles west o f Archangel, but have
been repulsed by the entente forces.
The Bolshevik and foreign troops are
acting in harmony.

STOP DRIVE
The German high command, having
been unsuccessful in piercing the Brit­
ish front in Flanders and separating
the British and French armies, has
essayed a stroke against the Ameri­
cans and the French northwest of
Toul,"and here also Teuton strategy
seemingly has failed utterly to bring
its plans to fruition.
Although the Germans attacked in
waves with greatly superior numbers
of men, the Americans and Frenchmen
have held all their positions and in­
flicted heavy losses. What gains were
made in the initial onslaughts have
been entirely retrieved and Sunday
night saw the American and French
lines restored.
The latest Berlin official communi­
cation asserts that in the drive 183
American prisoners and 25 machine
guns were captured by the Germans.
There has been no confirmation o f this
statement or o f the added claim tljat
the Americans sustained heavy casual­
ties.
It seems evident, however, that the
fight was a bitter one and that it was
the ambition o f the specially trained
Germans to crush the A,mericans. The
fighting lasted from Saturday well into
Sunday, but the Americans fought
tenaciously and gave ground by inches,
and then only when they have exacted
a tremendous payment for it in Ger­

Women Patrons of the Bank
A few years ago, there were practically no women who
were * atrons o f the Bank. Now, however, women recognize
the service of the Bank as one o f the aids in handling household
and personal money affairs. The progressive woman deposits
allowances for home expenses anfl pays all accounts by check.
The result is that her money is always safeguarded against loss
by fire or burglary and her money goes farther because o f the
systematic way in which it is handled.

Trembling, but Little Damage
Los Angeles Badly Shaken.
PROFESSIONAL
Los Angeles— All o f Southern Cali­
fornia and part o f Western Arizona
were shaken Sunday at 3:32 p. m. by
an earthquake which wrecked practi­
cally all buildings and residences in
Hement and San Jacinto, two inland
towns 45 miles southeast o f Riverside,
and caused minor property damage in
practically every town and city.
August Carlson, o f this city, was
found dead, without any external
marks o f injury.
An examination failed to disclose
the cause o f death, but the surgeons
gave it as their opinion that the man
had probably died from shock.
Another man was killed in a panic
at Santa Monica, when he fell off a
pier. A woman was injured by falling
from a second-story window at San Ja­
cinto and a number o f persons were in­
jured there and elsewhere, none ser­
iously.
Three men entombed in a magnesite
mine tunnel near Hement probably
were saved by fellow workers, who
drove an air shaft to them.
The severity o f the shock seemed
greatest inland, but it was distinctly
apparent at almost every point over
California south from a line from
Barston to the coast and in some parts
o f Arizona, although no damage was
reported there.
In Los Angeles and vicinity the
damage was apparent mainly in broken
windows.
Hundreds o f large plate-
glass windows here were shattered.
Several buildings showed cracks or
bulges, but the extent o f such damage
to buildings could not be definitely
ascertained.
Homes all over Southern California
were shaken, dishes rattled, furniture
moved and in many places the shock
was such as to cause the occupants to
tumble out hastily.
In Arizona ^he
shock was reported to have extended
as far east as Seligman in Arizona and
Milford in Utah.
Hement, about 25 miles east and
south o f Riverside, and San Jacinto,
the next town north o f Hement were
reported to be practically destroyed.
At San Bernardino the shock was
said by old residents to be the most
severe in many years. Scores o f plate-
glass windows were broken, a hundred
feet o f brick wall from one low build­
ing fell into the street.
