' Confidence was opa'in the keynote
of the War Saving Stump cninnnie.n
at headquarters this morning upon
the receipt of the encouraging ne,vs
of splendid sales made in the coun
try districts yesterday, rnd stror.u
crinforcements added to the local
campaign workers. Preparations for
the mass meeting celebration at 1 ho
Pnj?e and Kialto theaters Friday ev
ening in honor of the success! ol .ain
)iaiun arc perfected and there is lit
tle doubt that the country will come
forward with enough subscriptions to
ill 'hold its jeeord for patrotism es
tablished in the past.
, The limit club of $1,000 purchasers
of stamps added the names of Chub
Hamlin, Mrs. Chub Hamlin and Jesse
Houck to its membership today and
special committees are soliciing peo
ple for limit subscriptions nil over
the county.
Gold Hill, under the management of
IT. 11. Roed, one of the most enthus
iastic, workers in nil the past war
activities', reported over the top this
morning with $-1,200 in stamp sales
and the commitec had a considerable
number of people yet to bo solicited,
while an unofficial report was receiv
ed that the Talent district had sub
scribed its full quota.
, County Chairman JTart has been
assured by managers of nearly all the
country school districts that prepa
rations have been oonmlcteil for mass
meetings in the various school house
Friday evening in accordance with
the proclamation of President "Wil
son. No doubt these meetings
throngs throughout the counly will
have the largest atendanee ever given
a demonstration at any one time in
the history of the county.
The War Stamp committee urges
people, who the solicitors have not
reached up to the present time, to
come to the post office, the sub-station
post office or the Toggery and
sign pledge cards or purchase out
right all the war stamps they can af
ford to invest i,n thus helping to
raise the allotcd quota.
AMSTERDAM, June 27. German
soldiers now arc required to ask
their "Golt'' for forgiveness when
their shots do not take effect against
the allies.
This is almost unbelievable, but it
is true.
The prayer which contains this bru
tal plea is contained in a booklet
prepared for army circulation by one
Dietrich Volwerk. It is also circu
lated among church congregations a!
homo.
The prayer reads :
"Though tlio warrior's bread be
scanty, do Thou work daily death
and tenfold woe upon the enemy.
''Forgive merciful long snffer
ing each ballet and blow which misses
its mark!
"Irfuul us not into the temptation
of letting our wrath be too tame in
carrying out Thy divine judgment.
"Deliver us and our ally from tin
infernal enemy and his servants on
earth.
"Thine is the kingdom, the German
land: may we, by the nid of Thv steel
clad hand, achieve the lame and the
glory. Amen.''
Dietrich Vorwcrk. the roloctor of
this prayer book and perhaps the au
thor of this sharpshooters' prayer, is
the mnn who wrote the words of the
hymn in which the blessing of "fiott''
is asked upon the German "Cheru
binen, Scpnphinon, Zcpeliiiin" (cher
ubs, seraphs. Zeppelins.)

GERMANS TOLD
NEW YORK TAKEN
BI HON FORCES
"WITH TIIK AMERICAN' ARMY IX
FRAN'CK, Juno 20. By tho Associ
ated Tress.) German prisoners cap
tured by tho Americans on storming
tho Belleau wood section last night,
now number 250, including seven of
ficers. One of tho officers said that
tho Gorman commanders havo been
tolling tho soldiers that tho Germans
have landed an army in Am-irlca, cap
tured Now York and ara now march
ing on Philadelphia. Tho Germans
also aro told that submarines havo
sunk between 40 and CO ships in
Long Island sound.
Cioing to Destroy Vaults.
Another Gorman oflccr, arrogant
and sarcastic, remarked:
"Wo aro just starting with, tho
Americans. Vo aro going to wipe out
whole divisions, as if they wero com
panies." -
Tho Gorman privates wero less ar
rogant and apporently wero glad they
wero captured. One declared that tho
Germans wore surprised at the Amer
icans, who appeared so young, but
fought liko dovil3 when they got
started. Another declared:
Yanks to End War.
"Tho war will soon bo ended. Thcro
aro too many Americans coming to
Europe."
This prisoner was a Trusslan, who
had fought on tho Uuslan front. Ho
confessed tho Germans woro prepar
ing to attack tho Americans in Bel
leau wood, when the American troops
started their atuck. It was a surprise
affair. Tho Americans came ono way
and tho Gorman officers tried to
forco their men forward tho other
way. This prisonor was shot In tho
leg by hos own officer because ho
hesitated confusedly between the
American guns and bayonets and the
pistols In tho hand3 of tho German
officers..
A lialn of Shells.
Tlnymond S. Howell of llamcsvlile,
f)., who was In tho first lino of tho
advanco, describing tho operation,
said:
"Wo took upa position in tho open
wood. There wero no trenches. The
Germans opened a heavy firo and
shells fell around us liko rain. Wo
charged over tho rocky hljl, our fel
lows luuphlnft and yelling a war
whoop. Wo then camo upon a wheat
flold and crossed in tho face of a
withering shell and machine gun firo
drovo bark the Germans at tho pojnt
of thcbayoucL
Huns Khout "Kamcrnd."
"It was a wonderful sight. The
Americans never hesitated and the
sound of their thouU and whoops
wero almost drowned by the German
cries of 'Kamerad.'
"To Germans got a few of our fel-
Stan dadd
Food v
lows, hut wo made them pay dearly
for overy one."
Herbert E. Bartley of Anita, la.,
told about a wounded American forc
ing a big German to lead tho way to
tho rear of tho American Hues. When
they reached tlio lines, tho American
said quietly: . '
"Hero's-my prisoner." - .'
The German nodded sheepishly and
said: ,
"Yah." : ' '
Somo idea of tho fhoroncss with
which tho American troops prepared
for tho attack may ho gleaned from
the fact that they fired approximately
5000 high explosives in ono hour.
Tho Gorman lines wero torn up and
the ground strewn with German dead
and wounded. '

OF EQUAL SUFFRAGE
WASHINGTON", Jane 27. Final
arrangements for consideralidu to
day by the senate of the house resolu
tion proposing a submission of a
woman sufl'mo amendment to the
federal constitution have been com
pleted, but whether a final vote would
be reached appeared to be uncertain.
Two factors which some senators
said might force the vote over until
Friday wero the army appropriation
bill and the paring of senators for
and HgninsL tho resolution. Many
senators were anxious to dispose of
the army measure ns speedily ns pos
sible, so as to hasten the propesed re
cess of congress.
The army bill has riht of way nnd
under tho rules would come up to
morrow at 2 o'clock automatically
and close further consideration of
tho suffrage resolution, if a vote is
not readied by that time.
Inability of senators opposing tho
resolutiou to secure pairs with mem-j
hers supporting it threatening fight to j
defer n vote. Senator Martin, ma-j
jority lender, said tonight that oppo
nents would prevent a vote tomor- j
row, unless the suffrage le iders ar-
range pairs lor several senators who1
are unable to be present tor a roll1
call. Suffrage supporters were math.
in view of the admitted chsenc-is of
the vote to deplete their strength by
supplying the necessary pairs as a
two-third void is required and in pair
ing two advocates of tho resolution
aro required to pair with but one op
ponent. With a vote tomorrow uncertain,
interest in the fight over tho resolu
tion increased. Seats in the senate
galleries were at a premium tonight
and an early rush was regarded
sun;. Large blocks of admission
tickets were' given to women's orgaa
bilious which. huvo neen fighting for
t lie resolution. ,
RUSSIA IS DESPERATE

a l'etrograd message transmitted by !
tho Exchange Telegram correspond- i
cut at Copenhagen, the food situation '
in l'etroirrnd is despernto. Riots aro
