May Surround von Hutier's Army
Paris, Aug. 14 -The German
army of General von Hutier is
retreating from the Montdidier
Noyon line.
Ths retreat of Von Hutier'
army is showing traces of utmost
haste. Much war material is
being left behind. - The German
rear guards are fighting desper
ately. Von Hutier's retreat from
Montdidier was cut uif when the
French caotured Favero les. The
German position along the Mont-didier-Roye
road is precarious.
The movements of General
Deter.ey's army have been lightning-like
and resulted in the tak
ing of prisoners to the number
of several thousand.
The discomfiture of General
von Hutier's army and the prob
ability of it even being surround
ed, arouses a great deal of inter
est here. There is a feeling a
mong Frenchmen that Von Hut
ier is a renegade Frenchman.
His. father emigrated from
France to Germany and entered
the services of William 1, terv
ing in 'the war against France in
1870."
Bohemian Jinx Ring
Given To Red Cross
Denver, C-l., Aug. 14.-Inthe
many pieces of jewelry donated
by residents of Denver, to the
Red Cross benefit none perhaps
has a more varied and sinister
1 history thun that of a Bohemian
poison ring donated by J. E.
Zabo.
' The small gold band, manu
factured more than zuu years
ago, he said, had been worn by
several princesses at least twice
with fatal effect for their ene
mies. The bezel of the ling
turns upon a tiny hinge, the
pressure of a hidden spring
opening a small poison chamber.
The ring is valued at $1,000.
Vast Booty Taken
as montaiaier Mils
London, Aug. 13. Montdidier
fell to the French first army,
which had been operating south
of Montdidier, according to the
British war office announcement
tonight. Many prisoners ai.d
great quantities of material were
taken by the French.
The general line reiched by
the allies in the Albert-Montdi-dier
sector now runs from Lihons
to Fresnoy-Les-Roye, Ligaie-s
and Couchy-Les-Pots. The state
'went added that the number of
I iiioners was increased.

Dear Marshall:
You will find enclosed $1, for

notch, so I can get a letter from
home once a week for a time.
I know you are surprised to
find me down in Middle Tenne
see, after spending 56 years in
old Kentucky. But my bad
health has driven me down here,
where I can get good water and
good mountain iir. I have been
all in for the past four years.
My wife likes down here very
wtll and is getting along nicely.
I am encaged in truck farm
ing for the past two years on a
light scale nut will go at it in
earnest next year if I live, ahho
my condition is critical as
have paralytic trouble and we
cannot tell when that is going to
grab a fellow and take him
away.
Will close. Your Kentucky
friend,
Samuel E. Walker.

Interesting Letter
From Washington.
continued from page 1
French, British and German fleets we
rill havo a sea power four times the
American fleet, and we will toon de
stroy her little insignificant fleet, then
we will make the United States pay
the whole war indemnity. I will make
her pay as her many billions of dollars
she has hoarded up. Betides this, sajs
the Kaiser, Meiico will help us whip
the United States and we will give ber
Texas, Arizona and New Mexico for
indemnity.
After a hundred years of boasting
that liberty'! home is in America, the
powers of evil now challenge America
to prove that free men in a free gov
ernment can maintain their liberties.
The unconquerable spirit of America
must be aroused to a greater pitch.
The self-denial and dauntless devotion
that created America must be- exer
cised to save America. The fate of a
free world hangi upon the will and
spirit of the people of America. The
people of the United are compelled to
test bv battle whether this Republic
is to live or die.
When we read of the billions of dol
lars and the millions of lives this war
la costing, it is too appalling for our
minds to dwell upon. I will give the
readers of the Press some figures aa to
the cost both in dollars and lives.
The total coot up to August 1st 1917
was $98,SU0,0O0,U(i0 it is estimated
that by Aug. 1st 1918 it will reach the
staggering total of 1160.000,000,000.
Now let us see what thia stupendous
sum means, it is larger than the wealth
of any nation on the globe except the
United States. Now let us make a
few comparisons, we will take the cost
up to Aug. 1st 1917 $98,500,000,000 this
stupendous sum would cunsiruct
Panama Canals, it would build a rail -
road encircling the earth at the equa -
tor fifty aix times; it would buy two
hundred and twenty one million Ford
automobiles; it would build enough
steel ships if placed bow to stern, to
reach from New York to Liverpool
and from New York to Panama; it
represents a daily expenditure of i:i8,
lew ior every uay .: v.u.. w
born; and if laid In one dollar
placed end te end it wouiu mane a
chain of njtoa that would encircle the
globe 404 timea and would maxe
bands of money from the earth to the

In Chicago Aug. 5-6-7-1918.
Wsll it has never occurred to my
mind that when 1 go on a trip that my
friends care particularly what I see, or
what I eat, or where 1 sleep.
Our party on this occaaion consisted
of tbe following persons vis: U. S.
Simpson. Mrs. Ida M. Given.. Misses
Thelms and Ooeita Simpson.
Leaving Madisonvilie, Kentucky, the
evening of the 4th iuatant, arrived in
Chicago at eight o'clock in the morn
iiig. And during the remainder of the
day, we expired the city some wnal
briefly. You have not been in Chicago
unless yuu Mail the parks. rn"villy
Lincoln and Jackson. The former has
au exhibition of many wild animals.
Several species of the African lions
and tigers from India etc. The bears,
bulTaljes ai.d birds are too uumtruis
to mention.
We went to the Municipal Pier. It
is located one n.ile out iu tbe Lake,
thai is Lake Michigan. Tnis bu'luing
cost the city five million dollars. On
the third floor is the roof garden.
This Is the only one of the five Great
Lakes that lies wholly in the United
States. We all enjoyed a pleasant
boat ride from the Municipal Pier to
Jackson Park, a distance of eight or
ten miles on the Lake. Thia Lake is
Sea enough for me.
Another object of vast intereit to a
back woodman is the large stores and
there are any number here. We went
through the Boston store. We went
over the top of tbe twenty-one stories,
part on the elevator service, and part
of the way by the rolling stair steps.
Wo wire Informed by the guide Hint
we were :t-r feet from the ground.
Header, ot the Record-Vmn think of
one store containing three teres uf
floor space. This may sound to read
era of our home paper junt a little
"fishy" but he atates that as fact
when you har from mo again I will
be in a state that has more to bu proud,
of and less to bu ashamed of, than any
otiiir stile in the union.
