Neither the county agrirulUralint nor the county horticulturnIi.it in hired for next year and the mutter is held in alieynnce while the county court ta di sputing a leniton in high finance. In orilr that the farmers of the county might avail themselves cf tho services of nn acieulturul export the Commer cial club of this city has been active in the n attp of retaining the services of Luther J. C'linpin as county agri culturalist. Tho county court refused to appropriate money for Mr. Chapin'a salary nnd the Commercial club begun n campaign to raise tho money to keep Mr. Chnpin the this county. The county court offered to main tain H co.:nty fruit inspector ns pro vided by law and to provide tliilO an nually for his ncrvleen, but they tvouhi dn no more. Tho court ogreed to re tnln Mr. Chnpin as fruit inspector if it was agreeable to the fruit growers of the comity, ami let him carry on these duties in connection with those of county ngriculturnlist. The stnte ap propriates an amount e'liial to that np prnpriiitpd by thp county, to mnintnin n county agriculturalist if the money is spent under the supervision of the agricultural department of O.

From, this amou'it, f. O. t'oiistuble, the orient eiiuory fruit inspector, would receive IL'no, nnnnnlly as fruit inspector, ns In thp past, and would carrv nn this work. Mr. Cliapin would recoivc the balance, or !'imfl iinnunlly, to carry on the rest of the ilennrtment. The county court, however, was a bit dubious of certifying that it wns con tributing 1SU0 nnnuully for ngrlcul turiil work unless the ensh was in hand. Ci.mniisvloner Tleckwlth raised a ques tion after this fashion! "Hnnpnse (leorge Kodgers, as president of the Commercial club, or 11. .1.

A shift of the center of fighting in Frauce from tho region of the Aisno to districts' further north seemed llkelv today at any time. It Is Iniposalblp that there will be any concerted nbnanlonment by the Germans of their mora; southerly positions, but hence forward the increasing Intensity of tho conflict in tho north of France and in Belgium ought gradually to rele gate Hip field of the Aisne to a sub ordinate place, Hoth sides undoubtedly are withdraw ing heavily from their southern fronts to strengthen their forces in tho north. A Hrltish official report refers cauti ously todav to deserted Gorman trenches nlong the Aisne bntlle line. While this renoit discounts the drawing of any sensational conclusions, It Is legitimate to assume that inllltarv officialdom ei peels the guedual ubaiidonmeut of that torrttury. , w -, Battlo OrouM Cliaugos. Indeed, since thp number of men on both sides Is limited, It seems impossible that there can lie an indefinite continu ation of Hie tltantlc. strugglo 011 the Aisup while another huge conflict progresses 1 00 miles further north.

ANTWERP I E1R OF FIERCE ATTACK 1 rz By Hugh 8. Fullerton. I'hiladelnhia. Oct. 9.

They will admit the Athlet tcs are a better team in every de pnrtment, yet they oelicve thev will win and are will ing to back them selves to the limit. The Important problem of the day wns thp pitchers, and it was evident that Manager Htallinns had decided up on Kuilolph to inaugurate tho series, nnd Mack, us usual, had picke t Bender a starter.

The Braves are planning an "ultiick brusfpic" nnd hope to sweep the Ath letic:) off their feet by aggressive meth ods. Hlnlliiigs already has stirted it by u. fierce verbal attack upon Mack.

There Is more III feel Ing between the teams than hns been In evidence lu any series In years. The surprising thing is Hint the Braves urn ihochful of confidence In Ihemselves. Mvcryuno of them thinks they me hound tii win, nnd nnv argu ment to tho contrary is ridiculed, They believe their pitching strength will curry theiii through, It was my plensure to bit In Inst night nt onp of their meetings ut whb h they discussed plans.

AND ST LL DEF ANT "We will fight to the last!" , This was the message given to the world by the burg omaster of Antwerp today. The German siege artillery and scores of aviators were raining shells into the city and upon its inner line of de fenses. , Many fires had ben started and the cathedral and law courts, among other buildings, had been hit. Belgian troops were being withdrawn, leaving only enough to man the forts. Yet the beleagured city still held out. British experts were hopeful it would continue to do so until relieved. From Brussels to Antwerp few villages were anything but heaps of ruins. Throngs of wretched fugitives filled the roads. King Albert was reported at Zelsaele. A force of the allies, supposedly on its way to relieve Antwerp, was reported to have trapped and demolished a fip.rman force south of the besieced city. In France the cavalry battle north of Arras still raged. Fighting was desperate at the angle of the Oise and Aisne rivers. , ' The fierce artillery duel which has raged so long in the Woevre region was still on.
