TODAY'S WAR SUMMARY The supreme efforts of the fighting men of five nations have failed to turn the tide of battle along the Franco-Belgian border. Latest reports trklav were that a struggle of unparalled fury still was in progress along the North Sea, where the Germans witli reckless bravery are throwing their troops against the allies’ forces. The French official statement indicates that an attempt to cut off the German right wing had made some progress. If, as is said, the al lies have established a front from Ypres, to Roulers, the German line has been thrust back in a sharp angle, the point of which is considerably t« the northward of their forces on the shore of the North Sea. The Germaa 1 movement aerss the Yser, which presented a menacing aspect to the alliee, has been checked, the French war office says. All accounts agree that the toll of human life exacted in this crucial struggle is enormous. Three meadows near Ostend, a British correspon dent reports are heaped with German dead. There is no word from the remainder of the long line of battle, stretching to the south and east across France to the edge of Switzer land. Apparently both sides are awaiting the outcome of the conflict to the north upon which depends future plans of campaigning, although it is probable that heavy fighting still is in progress to the north of Ver dun, where the army of the German crown prince is making a desperate effort to pierce the French line. Reports from the eastern front indicate the greatest battle of the war in that area is impending. Austria, in its latest official statement, makes the claim of having thrust strong forces across the Carpathians in the face of determined resistance. German and Austrian forces, it is said, have now a strong wall of troops along a well established line from the northern spurs of the Carpathians before the long disputed fortress of Przemysl into the district of Ploclt. Before this line is arrayed the main army of the Russians now said to have been reinforced by troops from the Caucasus, Siberia and Turkestan. The Austrians claim successes in engagements to the northeast of Przemysl and on lower San. No word has come up to early afternoon of the fighting at Tsing-Tau where a small German garrison is attempting to stand qff attacks by land and sea from the combined Japanese and British forces.

Hobart and Jean Schwartz's glittering musi cal comedy, which has been elabor ately revived by John Cort with the famous stars, Mclntyre and Heath, in their original roles, was the title of a little sketch played by Mclntyre and Heath for many years, that gave as much pleasure to the laugh-loving public as any act performed on the American stage. The story in its in fancy w s short and simple, illustrat ing two distinct types of negroes. One an optimistic minstrel, the other a pes simist working in a livery stable who styles himself “a chambermaid for horses."

Four days after leaving the livery stable the troupe falls to materialize, leaving these tw-o strand ed In the woolv wilds with nothing In sight but a railroad water tank. They both are in want of food, and the pessimist wishes to lie down and die.
