Braining of Kaiser's Soldier i Unsurpassed, While Officers Depend on Men to l Execute Orders. - BY LEASED WIRE. I LONDON, Sept. 2. The Daily Mail's Correspondent at Boulogne sends the following telegram relative to operations around Arras: "It is quite evident that, except on the south, German forces are pressing on all sides toward Paris. It is reported that a German patrol with a quick-firing gun in a motor car, and fifty cyclists were in Arras, departfcaent of Pas de Calais, on Tuesday." According to an Evening News dis?atch the advance of the German roops that were marching upon Ctaambiegne has been checked, although this Is only a small section of the entire right wing of the German host. "It seems humanly impossible for Ihe British forces to hold their ground fegainst a foe so far superior in numbers," this dispatch continues. "There lere seven Germans to one Englishman kn the opposing lines in northeastern (France. Gut as strong as the Ger

Gerald Morgan of the Daily Telegraph, who is in France writing from fcoulogne, has this to say about the German soldiers: I "In 'equipment, training and aecourfrements the German soldiers are unsurpassed. The first line of regular troops has been drilled for years under endurance tests which made the soldiers hard as nails. I have seen their in their military acts for several

mays in succession, every man car

oaths, and sometimes blows. The Ger-

fnan oficers are brutal in executing heir judgments. They are stern and Unbending the typical soldier. There Us little of softness in their martial rnature8. When they are given an order they expect it to be executed instantly, and when a warning is given, and not heeded, the reprisal which follows is quick and pre-emptory. If a civilian disregards the warning ing against non-combatants firing upon the troops, a town or village is burned. The .German soldiers are tfull of confidence. Despite the odds against them, they are sure they will win.

against Germany have not fallen In vain. The call has been made and the response has been given. It has been splendid, but not beyond expectations. All classes, "the cook's son, the duke's son," have given their answer. Everybody is helping and the recruits, who aro responding to Earl Kitchener's request for a Second Army, come from ail sorts and conditions of the people."

G. 0. P. TO NAME STATE CANDIDATE

The meeting to be held by the Republicans of the county at the court bouse tomorrow afternoon at 1:30 o'clock will be turned Into a nominating convention for a short time until a candidate for joint representative from Wayne and Fayette counties Is named. The nomination was to have been made last June at the Republican convention at Cambridge City but owing to a misunderstanding on the part of the delegates from Fayette county, no nomination was made as the Fayette county chairman had not Issued a call. The matter of naming a candidate was then deferred until an opportunity presented itself for the meeting of the delegates. Notice has been Sent out by County Chairman Bowman that the nomination will take place tomorrow. At the convention in June the nomination was conceded to Fayette county and

it la understood that only one name has been suggested, that of Mason, a prominent Republican of that county. The meeting of Republicans promises to be largely attended. Over 100 notices have been sent out by the county chairman and all Republican party -workers are urged to be present to discuss the plans for organization work this fall. The meeting will be on the order of a "get together" session, i Canada last year received 384.867 new settlers, bringing about $100,000,000 with them.

GREECE IN FAVOR OF GREAT BRITAIN' BY LEASED WIRE. LONDON, Sept. 2. The assumption by Admiral Korr of active command of the Grecian fleet is said by the Ath- J ens Post to come as a welcome conelu-' sion and denotes to the public mind the good understanding existing between Greece and Great Britain.

(CUT TOWNSHIP TAX 15 CENTS FOR TEAR

jWayne Advisory Board Reduces Levy From $1.14 to 99 Cents.

The township advisory 'board went fTownship Trustee Howarth one better in the matter of estimates on the township's expenses of last year and us a consequence the township tax levy for next year will be fifteen cents lower than last year instead of thirteen cents as the township trustee predicted. The township levy will be 99 cents on the hundred dollars valuation for (next year while the levy for this year

was 51.14. ims is one of the largest reductions that have ever been made. The only reduction made by the board yesterday different from the levy estimated by Township Thustee Howarth, was in toe reduction of the working road levy from 12 to 10

cents.

The following are the township expenses on which levies were made:

Total . . . t $36,857.80 $.99 The amount levied on each poll rej mains the same as last year. For lo- ! cal tuition, which is issued for the payment of teachers, this is $.25 and for i special school purposes the tax on each poll is $.50. The reduction in the tax levy was made possible by the reduction in the bond payment levy of 6 cents on the hundred dollars; a reduction of 5 cents in the working road tax levy; a reduction of 4 cents in the special school fund levy. A reduction of 1 cent was made in the poor fund levy but this was counteracted with an equal increase in the library fund levy.

How the English view the war with Germany is told vividly in stories, pictures and headlines of the first British newspapers to reach the city since the European conflict began. These papers were received today by the Palladium. The newspapers are dated Aug. 15 and 16. Cartoons ridicule the Kaiser and present the German ruler, boasting of his "mailed fist." Photographs show the troops of the Allies rushing into Belgium to stop the onslaught of the Teuton war machine. Stories and head lines tell of "Two French Victories," ' German Attack Fails," and "Germans Again Misled." Even the "funny man" in his "Passing Show" gives his humorous sidelights on the conflict. This is the way "The Showman" for Lloyd's Weekly News expresses the

English view in brief sentences a la Strickland Gillilan: "The bacillus of battle: the war germ-an. "Made in Germany," the great war." "The North (Wait and) Sea." In bold type the Daily Chronicle proclaims:

Gives Call to Arms. "YOUR KING AND YOUR COUNTRY NEED YOU. A call to arms. An addition of 100,000 men to His Majesty's Regular Army is immediately necessary in the present grave National Emergency. Lord Kitchner is confident that this appeal will be at once responded to by all those who have the safety of our Empire at Heart." The call concludes with "God Save the King." Under the caption "The Bantam of Europe Holds the German Eagle at Bay," the Reynold's Newspaper tells the story of Liege. In the background are the forts of Liege, belching smoke. Ir. the foreground the Belgium bantam with spurs set and feathers ruffled is flying at the giant eagle which is forced back in surprise and chagrin. The grim reality of the war is il

lustrated in the Daily Sketch, which

tells how the actresses are knitting mufflers, helmets, socks and vests for the English soldiers at the front.

Another paper contains a letter from

a poor lad who offers the prince his

TRANSFER FOURTEEN TO SCHOOL IN CITY

Because of the crowded condition of District School No. 11, Easthaven avenue and National road west. Township Trustee Howarth has made arrangements to transfer all the seventh and eighth grade pupils to the Richmond schools. Because of this transfer on the initiative of the township, the trustee is required to pay $22.50 per month in street car fare for the pupils. There are fourteen pupils in these two grades at this school and all of them will attend the Richmond schools. Besides the street car fare, a transfer of $2 each will be paid by the township.

mony with the rules in their war upon the German neighbor. Speaking of the many who have died in the early engagements and offering consolation to the bereaved relatives Lloyd's Weekly News contains the following in an editorial: "Many lives full of great possibilities of usefulness to the world, have been lost in the gigantic struggle of the nations now proceeding on the Continent of I2urope. They have been sacrificed to the call of patriotism and duty, and, if it is true, as we believe it Is, that "they never fail who die in

a great cause," then assuredly those who have fallen in this great conflict
