Posed es { HAS MADE THINGS BLACK FOR | The Slavs Are Having Marked Suc- Everywhere--The Germans | Fail to Reach a Secure Line in East. Petfgrad, Oct. 14.--The situa- tion "on the Russian front is Brow- | ing better every day. The German offensive is paralyzed and the Rus- | slans are gradually recovering the in- | itiative As a result of their five | wonths campaign, the Germans not | only have. not succeeded in forcing {the Russian army to its knees, but | have failed even to reach a secure { line, entrenching themselves on which for the winter they could con- centrate their main attention on oth- er fronts. It so happens that another front claims their most earnest attention at the moment when the German front in Russia is most awkwardly placed between two strong lines and when the Russian army has to a {large extent regained its striking | power, The Germans hoped to Shnye off the terrible and costly bur- den' of the Russian campaign before | the winter. it may be assumed that they counted on establishing | themselves firmly on the strong line | | of the Dvina-Beresina-Dnieper, but their calculations have been falsifi-! ed at the exact psychological moment? when the Allies struck hard in the west and she growing exhaustion in | Turkey necessitated a supreme ef- fort on the part of Germany in the | Balkans. | COeSs Many-Sided Defensive, The clear and prolonged offensive | | of the cemtral European powers is i being turned into a complex and | many-sided-defensive, To free them- | | selves in Russia the Germans must | |' push forward their centre beyond the |Swamp region and secure their | { flanks. To secure flanks they must | | seize Dvinsk and the Dvina and push | on to the Upper Dnieper, but they! | have attempted both tasks in vain. | At Dvinsk the enemy "has been | held at bay.27 days. He has lost heavily in repeated frontal attacks. {At certain points he had advanced | | within five or six miles of the town, | but during the last few days he has | been forced back to the former ten | miles distance, and his attacks con- | Unuahy melt away under Russian | re. 3 Despairing of effecting anything | by further frontal attacks, General | von Buelow is now trying to force | a way through to the north of Dvin- | sk, The Germans did succeed im! capturing the important position of | Gorbunovka, near the river bank, but | were immediately thrown out again. | Iuskt, northwest of Dvinsk, where there is a stretch -of open country between dense forest, the Russians have driven the Germans {Out of their trenches, and south of Dvinsk a stiff battle is proceeding | around Novo Alexandrovek. Add to this the fact that on the {line of the lakes running 'parallel | Russians, are slowly but surely, ad- | enemy's hope of forcing the Dvina is | certainly no brighter than it was a | month ago. A sign of improvement { in the situation is the return to Dvin- { 5k of the town council from Vitebsk, | Whither it temporarily retired. Marked Russian Success. On the southern flank in Galicia Russian success is sven more mark- ed. West of Trembowla, the Aus trians had established themselves near the village of Gaivoronka, in a stromgly fortified position, which was to serve as a base for an advance on the southern from. Russian suc- Cesses at Kolki and Czartorisk on the Styr alarmed the enemy, and he tried to overthrow the Russians by a sud- || den advance from Buezacz. The Rus- sians took up excellent positions on the Styr, Olyka, Ikwa, Sereth, and by continually harrassing the en- omy prevented him from settling down in entrenched lines. The ad- vance from Buczacz was frustrated and the Russians 1h turn flung for- ward from Trembowla on to Gaivor- onka. * A strong Austrian redoubt Was taken, the Russians forced their Way across the Strypa on burning bridges, and cavalry, breaking |i through the enemy's lines, rounded | i up two thousand prisoners and cap- | {| tured four guns and two machine iii Buns. | This striking success, which is fi still being followed up, not only | gives the Russians a considerable | front, but undermines any possible | moral effect on Roumania of the re- i cent concentration of Austrian Il! and German troops in Galicia and if Bukewina, near the Roumanian fron i re ' | Return of the ii fish has returned to its f I! haunts in the bays and ii Lake Ontario.

At some future date a monster be- nefit game will take place in Toron- to, the proceeds of which will be giyen to the assistance of "Glad" Murphy, The Argonauts' surplus at the end of the season will also go in its entirety to Murphy. On account of the inability of Cap- tain "Mac" Murray of the Argonauts to comtinue in football owing to his duties at the ayiation school, Frank Foster was elected as captain to suc- ceed Murray. The Phillies were not the best club that ever won a National Lea- gue flag. Nor were the Red Sox the best ever finished out in front of an American race, But the Red Sox were at least several points better than the Phillies. " For the second year in suMession the Cleveland American League club failed to claim a player through draft President Somers will depend before on material claimed from ths various minor league interests. Pep Paisley, who is coaching Mon- treal ALAA, has heen successful -in getting out "Joe" Donnelly, the great McGill plunger, who was sus. pended a couple of years back on grounds of playing professional base- ball, but later reinstated. Christy MathewWton and Hans Lo- ert, along with other less notable, did not finish the final Western trip with the Giants. Matty and Hans, being of no particular use, were sent back, along with Thorpe, to New York, while Rube Schauer, heing of still less use, was permitted to go to his home in North Dakota. Silver Quilty states that although he had previously decided to return to McGill, he has again changed his mind and will continue the season with Ottawa. Had Quilty decided to go to Montreal, the Ottawa club would have no doubt objected to a change of residence as he is the pi- vot to the eam play and his playing with the Winged Wheelers, would have made it necessary for Coath Shaughnessy to charge all "or his §ig- nals. Several of the Ottawa rugby play- ers are in bad shape as a result of their Big Four game against Mont- real, and their exhibition clash with the Hamilton Rowing Club. Art. | Stalker is laid up with a sprained an- kle, and George Boucher is batter- ed about the face and head tg such an extent that he was unable to'work yesterday, Eddie Emmerson was accidentally kicked in the ribs Mon- day. The ligaments in his right side are torn, and it is doubtful if he will be able to play for a couple: of weeks. Silver Quilty's right knee is in bandages. Codch Shaughnessy, however, hopes to have all the crip- ples ready when the Ottawas oppose Montreal. Hamilton Times:--One Toronto paper accuses Manson of being res- Sousible for the injury tp "Glad" urphy, but this is an outrage, for the local boy had Joihing to do whatever in the accident, anson, it be admitted, was carrying the k a fly. ¥ and fell on his. shoulders. Had he touched or Manson touched him. it weuld bave been more than likely that t. 4 accident would never have occurred. A Unique Donation. Montreal, Oct. 15.-- The Melba concert in aid of the Red Cross So. ciety Wednesday night was undoubt- edly a gmeat success, and it trans that a donation of $500 found ts way to the society in a rather unique way. The committee under the presidency of Lady Shaughnessy, wife of Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, esident of the C. P. R., organized. : party of ybung ladies who . wers| 0: % Manson | o words | gard to the matter, and his motion ~ftion that six of the best exhibits be framed Classes, *'Is German still being taught in the Collegiate Institute?" asked Trustee Macnee, of Principal E. O. | Sliter, at the meeting of the Board of Education, on Thursday night. "Yes, it is still being taught," was Principal Sliter's reply, "The regwla- tions provide for the teaching of it. Any eitizen can demand that his child be taught German." © "Have you found any pupils tak. ing German at 'the present time ob- Jecting to it?" : Mr. Sliter said that he liad heard no objections, and that there had been no falling off in the number starting in the study.of German. + Trustee Farrell asked for informa-, tion regarding the time for the clos- ing of the schools in the afternoon. He was informed by Inspector Stu- art that the regular time for closing was 4 o'clock, but that the teachers had authority to dismiss children bearing good conduct at 3.30. Trustee Farrell asked that infor- mation be prepared by the Inspector as to the number of pupils relieved of their studies at the earlier hour, and for a full report on the matter. His motion was seconded by Trustee Elliott, and carried. Children's Teeth. . Trustee Meek is determined that there shall be a thorough inspection of the children's teeth, He believes that it is a matter that should be at- tended to, even if it is necessary for the Board to go into the dental busi- ness itself, The chairman of the management committee reported that the work was suffering as a result of 80 many of the dentists being occup- ied with work among the overseas volunteers, In view of this Trus- tee Méek moved, seconded by Trus- tee McLean, "that the management committee be requested to report on the advisability of a dental clinic without delay." "If the dentists are too busy look- ing after the soldiers, we should have a dentist of our own," declared Trustee Meek. The matter should not be allowed to drop. It is most important that the teeth of the chil dren be treated. © Trustee Meek then quoted figures to show how many voluateers hai been turned down, as a result of hav- ing bad teeth. Some time ago, . Trustee Meek found that no dentist bad made an iaspection in eight months, at f'ron- tenac school, and worked to have the children attended to. He believes that nothing should stand in the way of this all-impértdnt work. lis motiofi was passed. // Trustee Henderson reported that steps were under way to have the school nurse qualified so as she could assist in the inspection of the children's teeth, Men's Industrial Classes. Trustee Farrell is of the opinion that levery effort possible should be made to get the men out for the night Industrial classes. Owing to the fact that ®t was found impossible to secure men to attend, the Indus- trial Committee recommends that the classes be abolished. Trustee Far- rell believes' that this would be a most serious mistake. Trustee Rentqp, as chairman of the Industrial Committee, stated that he had called a meeting twice of his committee, to discuss the matter, but that on both occasions -he had no quorum. However the members of his committee were still of the opin- |} ign that it would not be wise to open the classes for the men, He stat- ed that in regard to men attending from the locomotive works, the com- mittee had been informed that the men were all busy, and that not one man from the works would be able to attend. » Trustee Meek said that it had been found impossible to get the men out for the classes, and the; fact was most lamentable in a place like Kingston. "It appears that the men would rather loiter around the street or go te the 'mdyies"" he said. It appears that the tlasses for wo- men have been fairly well attended. The men have been backward in © forward, . toe Macnee also spoke on the success. Lid On wotion of - Trustee *Farrell it] was decided to advertise the classes. for men in the Ne or T one of the many who eves that i pays to advertise.
