Muscovites, By Forced Marches, Have Wedge Between Kaiser’s Forces THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. have caught the panicky feeling from Germany’s armies. It is reported that the commandant of Marienberg has ordered the inhabitants to evacuate the country, while at Elbing the sluices were opened with the object of flooding the country to prevent the Russian advance. These are methods of despair and indicate pretty cer tainly that Germany has no more trained troops to oppose the Rus sians.

Grand Duke Nicholas has aban doned to its fate everything every where which did not lend Itself to the attainment of a single aim of locat ing, attacking and crushing the ene my’s force. In accordance with this policy quite half of Poland was left bare of Russian troops and all pub lic servants of Russia’s state were warned to quit betimes when the Ger mans advanced.

NO CIPHER CABLES. Washington, D. C.—Ambassador Page In Ixmdon today Informed the state de- Tonight atlO-The Curtain Is Drawn GOOD BYE TO YOU ALL ! It is with no hesitancy that I say that I am sorry it is so near over. It is with a tinge of regret that I pen these words, ‘‘Good-bye,” for in the short time that I have been herel have made many good friends, and I sincerely hope that it will be my good fortune some day to come back here again. Up to this hour —1 p. m.— the day’s business is beyond my wildest predic tion—that’s just the word. The clerks in the store told me I was WILD when I told them last night at closing time what we were going to do today—but now they know I knew what I was talking about. I know the buying public pretty well, and know that when for 17 days you give the people a square deal—day after day—that you need not feel uneasy about the final and last day. We are nearing the close now—just a few more hours —but these hours are jammed full of the best bargains that mortal man ever dreamed of, and when the clock strikes the hour—lo p. m.—my work will be over and I will feel that I have added one of the greatest successes of all my career to my list. The whole victory is not in the simple fact that we have done a tremendous bus iness—no, not by a long ways— this would not be so much in itself—but the best and biggest victory of this great campaign is the NEW WISE CUSTOMERS— HUNDREDS OF THEM, AND THEY WILL BE PERMANENT CUSTOM ERS OF THIS STORE, as they have learned during these days that they have been missing an opportunity for better goods at less money by not knowing this store better in the past. If there’s one single soul who has not been to this sale—won’t you try to get here just at the home stretch? I will be glad to see you and meet you face to face and say “howde” and say “good bye” at the same time. THE “WIZARD.” THE WISE DRY GOODS CO. 858 Broadway. The Shop of Quality Augusta, Ga.
