The attacking columns were stopped short by French fire. 'Iu the region of Apremont, southeast of Verdun, another Gorman attuck was topped. Heavy artillerying occurred last night the sectors of Roye, Lassigny, Moul in and Tu-svent. French troops have thrown forward their first lines to within a mile and a half of the important town of Combles. The town itself had been under terrific bombardment for three days by French artillery. French infantry is pressing tnstward, just south of Combles, to pocket the Germans in much the same manner as the British are closing in up on Thiepval. The French attack on Mourepas fol lowed a day of cannonading in which French and German artillery Bprayed the whole French Homme front with hundreds of thousands of shells. French infantrymen left the trenches toward sundown, and scrambling over ruined German trenches in throo waves that rushed steadily forward, drove the Teutons from the northeastern corner of Maurepas in less than 30 minutes of actual fighting. Detachments operating on the right broke through the enemy's positions cast of Maurepas with such rapidity that several bodies of German troops who had held positions in the village were surrounded and captured. The Germans made weak counter at tacks, but were beaten back while the French advanced their lines on a front of a mile and a quarter. - General Haig's troops, e few hours earlier, drove forward for 300 yards in fighting south of Thiepval, taking a German trench on a 400 yard front. Zeppelins Bald Britain. London, Aug. 25. Six Zeppelins took part in last night's raid on the Eng lish east coast, the second within 2-1 hours, General French, commander of the home forces, reported today. The Zeppelins were violently attack ed by anti-aircraft guns and by a Bri tish aviator who dashed in at close range .despite the Zcpeplins' fire and turned his machine gun loose upon a dir igible. The Zeppelin escaped by mount ing high into the clouds where the pur suing aeroplane was unable to follow her because of the heavy mists. The total of casualties has not yet been reported and the number of bombs dropped is uncertain. Several bombs were directed at ships along the sea eoast but the damage thus far reported is slight. In one locality, the railway station and several houses were damaged. Two horses were killed. In another locality two houses were wrecked. . . - ' Z5 Russian Resume Advance. London, Aug. 25.

Saturday Only TRY SALEM FIRST LM COMMtHCIAL CLUB Deutschland Flew Stars and Stripes at Masthead By Carl W. Ackerman. (United Press staff correspondent.) Berlin, Aug. 25. An American flag was flying at the Deutschland 's mast when the first commerce submarine to cross the Atlantic returned to her home port. "How are yout" I shouted in Eng lish from the deck of the yacht Ga zette as we approached the Deutsch land. "Very. well indeed." replied Captuin Koenig with a broad smile. Then tip ping his cap he led the crew in three cheers for the neutral, German and even the allied newspapers. Thousands of school children were crowded along the banks of the Wcser, singing national songs and yachts, tugs, sloops and other small craft sped hith er and thither to catch a glimpse of Germany 's Bca marvel. We left Breihen aboard the Gazelle and journeyed to ward Bremerhaveu. In the distance the Deutschland appeared, swimming low like a duck, escorted by two tugs and followed by another ship carrying the guests of honor, including Count Zeppe lin, Dr. Helfferich and other ministers. The ships whistled their salutes. Guns IN WYOMING FOR E Is Christened "Judge Walk over Hughes" by Typical Western Colonel Laramie, Wjvo., Aug. 25. Republi can Nominee Hughes got himself a new name, broke all quick dressing records and otherwise lived the stren uous life in his one day campaign in Wyoming today. When the nominee's special train pulled into Rawlins at a little after! seven, a crowd of several hundred peo ple guthered at the railroad depot and whooped up a lively welcome. The governor was not scheduled to make a speech, but when he heard the noise he started to dress. He appeared with in four minutes on the back platform, his necktie askew under his ear, his hair unbrushed, his shoestrings untied and even his whiskers unparted, but he got there in time to expound brief ly his belief in republican protection ism. Then Colonel King Stanton, wearing a United States army uniform, came forward and introduced himself as having taken Pershing into Mexico. The governor grasped his hand and thereupon Colonel Stanton announced to the crowd that, Indian fashion, he had selected a new name for tie W. f T 11. l.,t I. . "1Ar,a WolkJ over Hughes" and the crowd acclaim ed it with cheers. Particularly one slightly inebriated personage on the outskirts seemed ab solutely overcome with his emotion and insisted on punctuating every word with a cowboy yell "whoop-e-e-e."

It was most impressive Bight to see the Germans obtaining their first view of the Deutschland. Tears filled I the eyes of many while the captain and I crew lifted their hats to repeated greet ings. We rode alongside the Deutschland as she moved toward her dock. She bore no scratches. The only evidence of her long sea journey was the fact that Bhe was blackened aft, from the smoky ex haust.

Pub lic spirited and wealthy men contribut ed $25,000 to a purse given to Captain Koenig and his crew. Addressing Captain Koenig, Presi dent I.ohman of the Ocean company, said: "With special joy I repeat that all true Americans who are not doinir j Mammon service to England, all Amer icans of free beliefs of Washington and Franklin, greeted the arrival of the Deutschland with warm admiration." Lohmann referred, to the fact that the Deutschland traveled 8,200 miles be low and beside the English fleet. and I left the bench to represent tho party at this time because I believe that the policies of that party arc ab solutely essential to our prosperity." the governor asserted in his talk. "We have got to have proper pro tection to American industries or when the European war is over we will have a period of stagnation in this country like that which we had after the Un derwood tariff bill was passed and be fore the demand for our products was created by the European war. There was then a period of stagnation throughout the country when business was at a standstill and there were hun dreds of thousands of unemployed throughout this land, it is not so long ago you could have forgotten it" Jn addition to this impromptu talk at Rawlins, the governor was sched uled for a brief speech here from the end of the train and at least two ad dresses at Cheyenne.

BLOODLESS NAVAL BATTLE IS RAGING Defending Fleet Has Taken Many Batches of Prisoners From Enemy Washington, Aug. 25. A naval bat tle is anticipated off the Atlantic coast today. - Admiral Helm's defend ing forces will clash with the Red ene my fleet, naval officers here said. The naval censor refused to divulgt the probable point of contact between the fleets. It is believed that cruiser squadrons may already have met in a preliminary engagement, but the main battle squadrons of capital ships have not yet come together. A number of marine hospitals along the coast were today notified to pre pare to receive "wuunded" sailors and to report at once on facilities for handling the cases. Stores of medical supplies are at the same time ordered lor the vessels which are expecting them as soon as the engagement off shore begins. Several batches of prisoners taken by the defending fleet have been dis patched to New York, Norfolk and oth er navy yards. Regarding nn intercepted radiogram from the defending fleet yesterday, telling that the transport train of the enemy fleet was sighted, nothing fur ther has been heard at navy head quarters. Oificers said today they thought the report was scut out to deceive the at tacking fleet, but there 1s some belief that this opinion was g:ven to cover a leak in the censorship. Fear is felt I that this information may have reach ed tne enemy neet when the latter stopped merchantment out of Atlantic ports and took off their newspapers. It was rumored here tocay that to pre vent such action Admiral Helm had been instructed to take off newspapers irom vessels going heyonrt his lines. America Praised by German Editors Berlin, via London, Aug. 25. Most of the buildings here are decked with flags, in celebration of the return of the merohant-tiubmariue Deutschland. The newspapers give the exploit of mpiain Koenig a prominent place in their editorial comments and discuss the possibility of the empire's getting certain much needed materials through merchant submarines. Captain Koenig and his crew have been feted as heroes. The press gives liberal praise to the fair and neutral conduct of the United States government. The Cologne Ga zette says: "The American government was thoroughly and correctly neutral. The American fleet saw strictly that the American boundaries were daily re spected by the English as well as the French. Increased precautions were taken after an English cruiser had sur reptitiously entered Chesapeake bay at nignt." Extended Traffic Predicted The Tageblatt in its comment laid stress upon the new commercial rela tions established by means of this voy age between Germany and the United Slates, despite the British blockade and restrictions upon commerce, say ing tnut wane t lie interchange of prod ucts is so far of a limited nature, the company owning the submurine is busy with preparations to extend the traf fic. The semi-official Norddeutsche. Al Igemeinc Zeitung points out that ships ot tne DeutHcliluiiit and firemen tvpe will render valuable service during the war, nut their value will be slight on the return of peace. (Captain Koenig personally expressed great satisfaction ut the treatment ac corded him by the American govern ment. Enemy's Scouts Have Been Sighted Off Coast Washington, Aug. 23. hnemy scouts were sighted ny l mted States defend ing fleets scouts at 11 o'clock this morning, 120 mill's off llarnegate in let, forty miles south of Sundy Hook. This was the gist of a radiogram to Ad miral Helm, commander of tho defend ing fleet picked up by the Arlington station this afternoon. Jf the main home fleet is not far from its scouts, a buttle is imminent, officials here said. Somewhere behind a fringe of enemy scouts should be tho main enemy bat tle squadron and back of that, with a guard of light craft, the enemy trans ports. To break through the scouting lines and reach the -transports, either by destroying or evading the ninin enemy battle fleet is now the problem of Admiral Helm. REPUBLICANS OPTIMISTIC Chicago, Aug. 25. Optimism prevail ed at western republican headquarters here today as committeemen made their reports. Nutiunal committeeman R. Hynicka, Cincinnati, and W. C. Wood, Sioux Palls, S. D., and David Mulvaue of Kansas, were here today and assur ed Manager ilert that their states would go for Hughes. Hynicka pre dicted an "old tie republican majori ty" for Hughes. "There are no republican factions in Ohio," he said, "everybody is working together." The campaign committee will here Monday to lay further plans for the western campaign. Frank Hitchcock of New York will arrive Monday to at tend the session.

The kidneys are an diminu tive organ and are constantly working, separating the poisons from tho blood. Under this continual und perpetual action they are apt to congest, and then trouble starts. Uric acid backs up into the system, causing rheuma tism, neuralgia, dropsy and many other serious disturbances. Doctor Pierce of Buffalo, New York, advo cates that every one should drink plenty of pure water between meals. Every day should exercise in the out door air sufficiently to sweat profusely, and from time to time atimulnte the kidney action by means of "Anuric."

STATE HOUSE NEWS : i Accompanied by Fire Marshal Stev ens, of Portland, and by Captuin Groce, of the Portland arson squad, State In surance Commissioner Harvey Wellti left this morning by auto for Cottuge Grove, where he will deliver tonight his illustrated lecture on fire protectiou. Commissioner Wells has compiled front newspaper clippings the amount of lnsa which has occurred from fires in the stnto of Oregon, not including Portland, during the first 20 days of August. Tho amount is 78,500, and it is estimated that not more than half of the loss is covered by insurance. Protesting against the " temporarily disconnected" custom of the Pacific Telephone company, A. F. Flegel, Jr., a Portland attorney, has written a letter to the public service commission asking; that the commission issue an order to Unit company requiring it to remove no, instrument entirely from the premises of a delinquent subscriber after reason able notice of the company's intention to do so hag been given. In the event that the commission does not consider such an order reasonable, Mr. Flegel asks for an order to the effect that the company be not allowed to charge or collect tolls for time when service was interfered with or "temporarily dis connected" as a result of intentional act of the company. Mr. Flegel says that the present practice of the company in giving notice of a subscriber 'a delin- -queney to others before diving such. ; notice to the subscriber, which is the effect of the "temporarily disconnect ed" system, is neither just nor proper. One million dollars divided into shares of 1 each, is the amount of capital I stock given by the American Kxploia tion company of Portland in articliH ! of incorporation filed at the stnto cir j potation department this morning.
