HUSTRIA'S HIM: HOT FAR DISTANT

Disaster On the Piave May Be Last

of Emperor Carl'*

i" Army.

By Captain Pat Clarke. WASHINGTON ,D. C., June 17.—Austria's drive beyond the Piave has become an Austrian, disaster. The mighty effort of a! .million men, which was to have crushed Italy, is likely to be Austria's final war chapter. The rout has only commenced how great it will be cannot be forefren. It is beyond the range of possibility that the disheartened and weakened soldiers of the dual monarchy may He hurled back beyond the Isonzo, and that Italy may reclaim all that she lost last November.

From the b«grinning of the Austrian ftttftek It hu been Impossible to measure the bottle by the standard of the German offensives In France. Austria attacked more magnificently than the Germans, and has suffered a disaster tar greater than oould have followed a defeat of the Germans in any of* their attempts on a narrow front. Austria Staked everything on one blow, whereas Germany would not have been fatally weakened had any of her attacks failed. Most striking, however, is the •difference between the inability of the allies' in France to take advantage of

Orman weariness to launch an offensive and Italy's readiness to assume the Initiative and crush back the en«my the moment the aggressive istrength of the Austrians was exhaust--ed

Beyond Belief.

It has been clearly realized that the campaign In Italy is fraught with far graver possibilities than the fighting in France. It* has been predicted that a failure of the Austrian offensive would the beginning of the end of Austria.

AHut

scarcely the most sanguine observer has ventured to hope that Italy's «, iildirs would be able to turn the -grandiloquently advertised Austrian •drive into one of the greatest victories *yet recorded by the allies. To hold the ,» Austrians from advancing would have been glory enough. It would have proved Austria's inability to ^in the victory that her starving people are demanding. It would have encouraged the allies in France and would have put new confidence into the work of the fighters on every field. The tremendous Italian victory that now seems assured is news so good that for the moment it defies comprehension.

The possibilities are so great and results of stupendous importance may

come so soon that the whole outlook of I the allied nations may be altered and the year 1918 may no longer be regarded merely as a time of endurance and preparation.

It is well to bear in min® that the Italian victory is confined to the lowland region. In the mountains there has been no determined Italian attacks and no Austrian retreat. The mountain sector is strategically more important than the Piave sector. Yet It was only along the Piave that the Austrians were able to gain ground at the beginning of their "drive." Italy's "defense of the mountains never wavered. It is highly improbable that the demoralized Austrians could now win against a defense which was adamant when the confident enemy delivered his fli-et blow.

The difficulties of mountain fighting are such that Italy may be quite content tc maintain her Alpine positions for the present while she completes her splendid work in the lowlands. The mountain task will be easier when the full extent of the Austrian rout is measured and understood. It is even possible that the Austrians will be compelled to abandon their mountain positions without giving fight Certain U is that any extended Austrian retreat back ©ward the Isonzo will mem a much longer battle front and will necessitate the use of more and more men fnr the mere work of defense.

Only Two Results.

This leads to the assurance that Gettntmj must once more hasten to Austria's assistance. Austria's fail force was mustered for the great attack. She has now lost many men, perhaps a flft*i of her original strength, and is faced with the necessity of protecting a line much longer and more diffi-nU than that which she has held since last November. By plain inathematics there atv only two possible .ilterm-.tlves. Either the Austrian defense must melt and vanish or many divisions •«ermans must be s*nt to strengthen the weakened line and stand as a bulwark ngainst the triumphant men of Italy.

THE

The consequences of such a weakening of the German force in France may be far reaching and may permit the western allies to regain the initiative which they were forced to surrender tast March.

Meanwhile the newa from the Piave is beginning to trickle back to Vienna, to Budapest, to Prague, to the centers of Slavic opposition to Hapsburgism. The actual collapse of the heterogeneous empire may even now be at hand. Here, again, only German intervention in force can avail to stave off disaster. Hapsburgism may be braced and strengthened by German bread and bayonets, or Hapsburgism may be kicked by German boots. In either event Germany will have heavy business in Austria, business for thousands of German fighting men as well as for German Macchiavellis.

It is npt clear where the present Italian offensive will end or toward what goal Gen. Diaz is direcing his fighters. hether or not Italy is prepared for an extended offensive is uncertain. But whether the Italians reach the Ljvenra, the Isonzo or the Danube their work will have been of a value quite beyond present calculation.

ARTHUR FROMHE'S HORSE.

Will Be Sold Again at the Fair Ground* on July 4ttt. Thi fine Kentucky feaddle horse which was given to the Red Cross by Arthur Fromme will be sold at the fair grounds celebration on July 4th, and the money will go to the Red Cross.

Fromme. only son of August Fromffle, was in the draft call Thursda morning and left for Camp Sherman. The horse has been his companion for five years and has frequently been admired on the streets of the city.

The mare has five gaits and is declared to be one of the finest saddle horses in the country. Soon after Fromme announced that, he was going to give it to the Red Cross he was offerred 350 for her, but he said he had all along intended that the Red Cross should have the horse and his decision stood.

The sale will take place at the fair grounds on July 4th. The horse will be ridden by a Terre Haute girl, who is an expert horse woman and bids will be called for. The sale of the Red Cross horse in itself will make quite an attraction for the Fourth of July program.

little one, though too young to understand, feels some* thing tugging at her heart. If daddy would only come! It seems he has been gone so long—so much longer than he has ever been away before, In the daytime she plays with other children, and for the moment forgets. But in the evening when her playmates run away to meet tlieit daddies coming: home she feels so lonely. How she lonprs for daddy wants him to hold her in his arms again to run his fingers through her hair and pat her cheek. And at bedtime remembering daddy's good-night kiss she asks when he is coming back. Mother bravely answers, "Pretty soon"—then quickly dims the light to hide a tear.

For daddy is "Over There.Over there where shells hiss and bombs burst. Over there where cannons belch and bayonets slash. Over there where machine guns spurt continuous streams of deadly lead. Over there where rifles crack and gases choke. Over there where men "Go West."

Vou and should be there. There's a place out there where you and I might dress a wound 1 There's a place out there where you and I might save a life! There's a place out there where you and I might dig a trench I There's a place out there where your bayonet and mine might win a charge!

But you and have not been called to go we have been only asked to give and we have given. But something way down deep in our hearts tells us that what we gave was not enough. Sometimes when we hear the rustling'of the leaves we stop and listen. It seems we hear the children whisper, "Won't you bring my daddy home?" It seems we hear the prayers of mothers asking us to bring their boys# And then a voice within—the voice that no one else can hear—the voice that always warns

what is wrong—the voice that always tells us what is right—says "Give"'!

At The Movies

By Mique O'Brien.

"Lest We Forget," the Metro photospectacle which carries the' slogan, "Remember the Lusitania!" is the important attraction booked at the American for thred days beginning today.

By all accounts this picture does full justice to the tragic event which made the entrance of the United States into the world war inevitable. In eastern cities, "Lest We Forget" has been the subject of lengthy reviews in which the importance o£ the film has been fully recognized. V "Bob'' Heinl, the literary representative of the railroad shipping board saw the picture in Washington ana was one of the first to congratulate Manager Shannon Katzenbach upon having secured it for the Amerioan.

The star of "Dest We Forget," beautiful Rita olivet, was herself a passenger on the Lusitania on its ill-fated trip, and heard those immortal words of her fellow-passenger, Charles Frohman, "Why fear death? Death is the most beautiful adventure of life." Her life was spared to be a living witness to the brutality of the Huns.

This eight-act production provides a mighty panorama of events now historical, connected with the epening days of the war, and follows its progress through the later thrilling months. Many Americans unable to go abroad and engage in actual fighting or works of mercy have wished they might see with their own eyes a part of what has been going on in Europe since August, 1914. "Lest We Forget," shows far more of factual events abroad during the great'struggle of decency against barbarism than any one person, whether combatant or non-combatant could possibly see.

The scenes of the lusitania are especially thrilling. The sailing, the vast crowds of friends wishing bon voyage to the passengers, "flashes" of the various activities and amusements on board ship, are followed by the launchng of the deadly torpedo from the German submarine, the filling of the vessel with water and the panic and excitement of the amazed passengers, who am shown plunging into the ocean, some swimming to the small boats, others sinking to the ocean's depths.

Miss Clara Kimball Young is a widow, and an attractive widow, of course, in "The Reason Why," the seiect. picture, -wixich is this week-end

Then follow some pictures of high life in London. Yvonne's secret prays upon her and she worries greatly over what might happen in case her new husband discovers she has a past, A seventeen-year-old son complicates matters. With "The Reason Why" some timely HeartPathe news pictures are shown. "The Blue Streak," a five-reel Western film, made at the William Fox studio, is the offering at the Princess, today. William Nigb is the star.
