FRENCH ADVANCE LINES
ON BOTH SIDES OK SOMME;
HlOGltESS TOWARD CLERY
PARIS, Aug. 22.
French troops ndvanced their lines on
both sides of tho River Sommo last night,
making progress toward Clery, on the north
bank, and capturing several trench elements
nouthwost of Kstroes and east of Saye
court. It was ofllclally announced today.
In the fighting north of the Sommo tho
French captured two German cannon south
of Gulllemont, making a total of eight cap
tured there. A numbor of prisoners were
taken In tho operations south of the river.
Northwest of Solssons a French surprise
attack drove tho Germans from a trench
on tho Vlngre plateau.
A French air squadron hurled 79 bombs
nt the stations at Noyons and Tergnlcr, A
French pilot brought down nn Albatross
machine near Ncslcs. In the same region
a French squadron drove back four Ger
man blplnncs attempting a raid over tho
French lines.
BERLIN. Aug. 22. Fighting of great
violence developed on nn extenslvo scale
north ot the Sommo last night, tho German

Bitter fighting Is In progress for pos

Both British nnd French attacks broko
down, but south of the Sommo the French

Kstrees, which were later retaken by tho
Germans.
CZAR'S FORCES PUSH AHEAD
IN INVASION OF HUNGARY;
CHECKED ALONG ST0KH0D
LONDON, Aug. 21.
The Russians continued their advances
yesterday on the Stokhod and Carpathian
fronts. They have met with determined op
position In iho former region, however, nnd
havo been checked In their forward drive
except at a few points.
The forces of Letchltsky which broke
through the Jablonltza Pass two days ago
are still pushing forward into Hungary,
meeting with little effective resistance. Hav
ing seized the heights dominating Koros
,mezo, they aro slowly pressing nearer tho
town along the railroad to Maramaros
Szlget.
South of Kuty the Russians have cap
tured Jablonltza and Fereskul, on the
Chcremost River, which nt this point forms
tho boundary between Gallcla and Buko
wlna, and are moving on the heights to the
westward. Thus the Austrlnns are being
swept back against tho mountains, with
Rodna Pass their only line of retreat. Once
they have withdrawn Into this gateway,
virtually the whole of southeastern Gallcla
will be cleared of Teuton forces, and the
Russians will be able to concentrate their
efforts on a northwest drive toward Lem
berg on the flank of the enemy army guard
ing Hallcz and the Dniester line.
In southwestern Bukowlna the Austrlans
have been successful'ln counter-attacks and
have seized Important heights near Moldava
and Klrllbaba.
The feature of the RUBsInn campaign,
which broke out like a tempest on the
southwestern front over two months and
a half ago Is the almost continuous nature
of the fighting. With the exception of brief
Interludes for consolidating positions or
changing the direction of attack, It has been
like one great sustained battle.
It Is impossible at the present to say
whether the Russian attack upon Kovel
from the Stokhod region continues with
Its original energy, but the belief seems
to prevail here that the discovery of a se
ries of strong German fortifications pro
tecting Kovel from the east led the Russian
Btaff to baBe Its hopes on taking tho city
by strong flank attacks, which are now
developing.
ALLIES' AVIATORS HAMPER
GERMAN COMMUNICATION ON

THE HAGUE, Aug. 22. Raids by Allied
aviators have destroyed long sections of the
Dapaume-Peronne Railway, considerably
mbarrasatng the German communications
behind the Somme front, it was learned here
today.
French long-range guns are playing
havoc with the Oerman transport service
near Combles. The highways leading into
Combles are under a steady fire, making
tt most dimoult for the Germans to supply
their forces fighting In the Clery and Gullle
mont salients. The German rear lines In
the rear of Combles have suffered severely,

noon. Other detachments moved forward on the

CALL ASKS INJUNCTION
TO BAR COPS FROM CLUB
Centlnoeit from Tniti One
anttno of the club of which he Is president.
The floor of Call's cottago trembled
nearly all night as the "Judge" paced back
and forth, venting his rage against his
enemies. The "Judge" kept the telephone
wires "hot" Issuing militant Instructions
to hie henchmen In the Twentieth Ward.
Before midnight It became common prop
erty all over the ward that the "Judge"
was raging like a "dyspeptic bull" down
by the sea and was getting ready to fight
everything In sight.
"GET 'EM AND GET "EM RIGHT"
The "Judge's" Instructions to his lieu
tenants were ended with tho snartlng com
mand, "Go. after them now, get 'em nnd
get 'em right. Understand, this Is no
Sunday school moonlight. It's a rough
house."
It Is said that the corpulent "Judge" per
spired "bucketaful" ns ne pellowed forth
his orders. His sleeves were rolled up
above his soft, fat bleeps, his suspenders
dangled below his hips like broken harness
on a refractory horse and his chest and
abdomen heaved like the body of a beach
stranded whnlo. Tho "Judge" was at It
until after midnight, and when he flnlhed
tho telephone receiver fairly dripped with
his perspiration.
Call was completely exhausted after he
had finished "gingering up" the entire Twen
tieth Ward with his hoarse battlecry.
It was ndmittnd by Call's henchmen that
the fiuarnntltilng of the Twentieth Ward
Ropubllcnn Club wnR tho most demoraliz
ing blow ever received by tho "Judge."
Wurd heelers, who gnthcrcd within Its
portals nnd participated In card gnmes nnd
other parties In the past havo been led to
believe that thoy wero In a little exclusive
principality of their own which ivni Immune
Irom pollco Interference. Tfe quarantining
of tho club has convinced these henchmen
that Call Is not so "strong" after nil, nnd
they are thinking about "getting out from
under."
Spatola expressed "righteous" Indignation
today at the quarantining of tho club.
"This Is a chartered club," he said, "and
the members have a perfect right to engage
In nny recreation they seo fit. Of course
the mombors play cards and domlnos, but
what Is the harm In that 7 Don't they do
the snmo thing In other clubs? Tho prin
ciple of the club Is to furnish nmuscment
for men who work hard during tho week."
EDITORS NOT ARRESTED
Captain of Police Nlcholns J. Kenny, who

for tho arrest of Dougherty nnd Knight,
editors of tho Sunday Transcript, on tho
charge of criminal libel, say It Is none of
the public's business what happens to the
warrants.
Dougherty and Knight nre seon on tho
rlnlto almost every day, their friends say,
but thoy pass nlong Just at If thero wero
no wnrrants hanging over them.
Captain Kenny becamo Indignant whon
he was naked this morning why the war
rants had not been served.
"That's nono of tho public's business. I
am suing those fellows for criminal libel
nnd I will get them at the proper time,"
said Kenny.
"When will be the proper tlmo? Somo
ono has said tho warrants would never bo
served?" queried tho Evenino Lbdoeu re
porter. "I can't mnko the detectives servo the
warrants," said Kenny, "but Blggar gets
back from his vacation on Sunday, nnd
then I will go after these fellows myself.
See,"
In tho meantime the warrants repose in
the pigeon holes of Captain Tato's desk.
CALL DRAWS LANE'S ENMITY.
A political war a contest for the Repub
lican Organization leadership In "Dave"
Lane's Twentieth Ward led to the "perse
cution" of Magistrate "Joe" Call that re
sulted In hl-Klndlctment by the Grand Jury
yesterday niTB tho closing of the Twentieth
Ward Republican Club, of which he was
tho head.
"Judge" Call nsplred to the londershlp In
tho word whero Republican City Chairman
David H. Lane has ruled for decades. In
the eyes of tho administration and the fac
tional lenders behind the administration, ha
sinned politically therein. So a counter
campaign against him was launched.
Magistrate Call broke off his political re
lations with Lane at the first of the year
and since then has made little secret of the
fact that he has been nsplrlng to be ward
leader In a bailiwick that has been con
trolled almost absolutely by the "Sago of
the Organization" for many years.
Until tho Smith ndmlnlstrntlon went Into
office, "Judge" Call has been working with
Lane politically, although his leanings havo
been toward State Senator James P. Mc
Nlchol ever since he became a Magistrate.
McNIchol and La.no, however, had never
been openly at odds until last spring.
During the primary campaign, after Mc
Nlchol had been eliminated from the trium
virate that had ruled the destnles of the or
ganization slnco the death of Israel W. Dur
ham, Lane cast his lot openly with Mayor
Smith and with the Vares, who stood spon
sors for the new city administration.
"Judge" Call, who had previously worked
for Lane as head of the Twentieth Ward
Republican Club, whom he had known inti
mately In a political and In a pinochle way
for years, worked against Lane.
According to lieutenants of both Lane
and Call, the "Judge" and Lane had a
heart-to-heart talk early In the primary
campaign. During that talk the city chair
man, according to the lieutenants, warned
Call to line up with the Vares and Mayor
Smith.
Call's answer was to accompany Senator
McNIchol west when McNIchol attended the
Grand Circuit races early In the last cam
paign. That act of Call's caused an open
break, according to politicians.
FOUOHT FOR BROWN,
Call followed up his trip with McNIchol
by working In the ward in the Interest of
President Judge Charles L. Brown, of the
Municipal Court, who was opposing Lane
as delegate from the Second District to the
Republican National Convention.
The "Judge" worked day and night for
Judge Brown and McNIchol, and McNIchol
and Brown were elected. Lane, according
to politicians In the ward, has never for
given Call for that.
Late In the primary campaign Calls
principal lieutenant, Jimmy McTague, a
former fire marshal, came out as the Mo
Nlchol candidate for the ward leadership.
Ha was defeated, but made big Inroads on
Lane's machine In the Twentieth Ward.
Call, according to political leaders, put
up McTague as a "blind" behind whom he
could fight to be In a position to succeed
Lane as ward leader.
Lane's years as "Sage of the Organiza
tion'" are numbered, in te opinion of the
other Organisation leaders, and It was the
prize of being Lane's successor In the
Twentieth Ward that resulted In the city
administration and the Vares carrying the
fight against Call that ended In the Indict
ment of the""Judge" and the quarantining
of his political club as a gambling joint

Miss Brown danced with the nbandon we
would expect of such falryllke persons, nnd
Mr. Kalmar was equally agile In his dllll
cult roles. Tho net generally Is conducive
to happiness.
When It corner down to real wit and
humor, or whatever you wish to call It,
Avotlng and Uoyd were enBlly first choice,
Unlike tho usual talking act, they do not
sing when they enter or exit But for IS
minutes they dispense gems of wit In the
way of general conversation.
The Interesting gossip was tho work of
Aaron Hoffman, one ot tho few vaudeville
authors, who defies the beaten path and
blazes Ills own trail.

the usunl weird music, draperies, etc., was
presented by Miss Dong Tong Ouo nnd

American creations, they sang numerous
eongs In Kngtlsh, Indicating that they had
been In this country somo time. Thoy wero
well received.
Liberal applause rewarded tho Three
Stelndot Brothers, who offered classical and
popular musical selections.
Wllllo Solar, who lias had the honor of
entertaining royntty. sang In many lan
guages and faces i that Is, ho made a differ
ent face for every song. By way of good
mpasure he threw In n number of Imita
tions on tho sldo. Ito also showed some
rnther startling Idens In dancing. Summing
It all up ho was the applause winner of the
show.

lay much stress on harmony singing cli
maxes. Their tnlk Is good and they won
many laughs But It their material waa a
little mora consistent It would help matters.

THE SUMMER GJXlt
GOOD BILLS SHOWN
AT MOVIE HOUSES
But Only Two New Films Make
Their Way Downtown Out of
the Largo Number Produced
The fact that two new films are abovn
this week In the moving picture houses hi
not abnormal. That Is the usual nutnfcer
and only by chance does a third, by accident
a fourth, creep In. It Is understood that
presently a theater will begin showing
first run Fox productions. But regularly
a new Triangle and a new Paramount matt
up the bill.
An easy going summer bill Is on at th
Stanley. Neither tha feature nor the
comedy comes up to the standard of last
week. Tho travelogue and the sport number
nre both excellent, particularly tha former
which deals beautifully with the southern
Tyrol. The feature Is "Little Lady Eileen"
with Marguerite Clark, still piquant and
lovely, but a bit older than when, we saw
her last, nven she cannot make & slow
scenario any too Interesting. The story
of llko brothers, ono of whom must marry
Lady Klleen, of substitutions and n most
outrageous accident nt tho end, Is all pretty
tame, Thero are several fine locations, but
nothing to equal Mr, Holmes' real locations
In the Tyroleso Alps. The comedy Is called
"Fare Lady," but so quickly was the name
flashed thnt those responsible escaped
notice. Which Is, on the whole, better for
them. Not that the comedy Is bad. It la
medium. And no comedy should be
medium.
At tho Arcadia the feature Is "Hell-to-Pay
Austin," a Triangle, with Bessie Love,
always charming, and Wilfred Lucas, al
ways dependable. But neither of these la
at their best In this production. Appar
ently the Idea Is that since they are good
screen actors they can do anything, but
tho Idea Is n mlstako. The plot deals with
an easterner who, In a shady struggle,
hurts a man and thinks he has killed him.
Ho goes West, becomes Uie dour dominating
figure of a saw-mill camp, bullies and
beats his men Into submission. An orphan
comes Into his life and goes out ot It
stangely Into tho llfo he has left behind.
Then there Is a big fight nnd a great vlo
tory. The best thing In the picture Is the
extraordinary taking, the fine composition
of certain scenes nnd some good detail.
"Gloria's Romance" Is now In Its sixteenth
eplsodo and there Is a good surroundlnr
bill.
At the Pnlacc, Mary Flckford Is seen In
"Hulda From Holland," reviewed In this
placo when first shown. The picture Is
made for Miss Plckford, and she does, her
best to be mado for the part Those who
llko her will need to know no more.
The
are
usual satisfactory accessory films
shown.
The excellent Keystone, "Madcap Am
brose," reviewed here last week, la ahowh
nt tho Victoria, nnd with It stands "Thei
Marriage of Molly-O," In which Mae Marsh
nnd Bobby Harron work under Triangle
dlroctton. It la a good film and one wonders
how long it will take the public to reallia
that Mae Marsh Is not only a good artist,
but a very appealing person. There are
good details to fill In beside those two fea
tures. 10,000 NEGROES IN PARADE
31 States Represented in Procession of
' Elks on Broad Street
Ten thousand men and women, repre
senting 31 States, took part In tha annual
