GERMAN DRIVE RESISTED.
Paris, Nov. s—The new German
drive for the coast through Ypres. ,
j Lille and Arras, for which a grea#
army of 350,000 men has been con- j
centrated, was started today and '•
met with its first repulse.
The French counter offensive,
supported by the new batteries of
heavy artillery and augmented re
serves from each of the allied ar
mies, was able not only to repel
r
the German advance, but succeed
ed at several points in making
notable progress.
The German attack was not
characterized with the vigor and
determination which marked the
earlier conflicts near the coast, the
main dependence of the assault be
ing placed in the artillery. This
would seem to indicate the aban
donment of the prodigal expendi
ture of men which has proved so
costly to the invaders.

Ulleged Horse Thief Charged
in can an
Blairsville is enjoying a series
of unusually strange deals in
horses and the alleged horse thief
is now in the Armstrong county
jail at Kittanning charged with
stealing chickens.
It seems strange that horses
could be stolen in one neighbor
hood and remain in the same
neighborhood for weeks without
being discovered, but such was
the ease. Harry Sheetz brought
a team to Blairsville in July that
was claimed six weeks later bv
Liveryman Sholtz of Dunbar. Geo
Cribbs, a Blairsville dealer, had
purchased the team from Sheetz.
In the meantime a second team
had been purchased by Cribbs
from Sheetz. Now Liveryman
Bright, of Keyser, W. Ya., has
claimed this team.
Policeman Trainor, of Apollo
has arrested Sheetz on a charge
of chicken stealing and lodged
him in the Kittanning jail. Cribbs
says the man sold the two stolen
teams to him. Sheetz has been
held for court in default of bail.

Sunday morning.

others later took part. Kilgore is

HARRY W. FEE. P. M.
Allies at Yser's Right Bank.
Paris, Nov. 6. —Official reports of
the late fighting indicate the
firmly maintaining their positions ir.
France where the German attack
now strongest and are gaining ground
in Belgium where the German attack
has weakened.
Between the North sea and Yprcs,
the line of fighting in Belgium, the
power of the Germans seem to have
been decreased remarkably.
The allies are now on the right bank
of the Yser and have advanced eas*
ward from Nieuport. Only between
Dixmude and the Lys have the Ger
mans displayed any strength, but their
infantry charges have been broken
and they h?-e been pushed back.
The Germans brought heavy guns
Into action all along the center from
the Oise to the Moselle and kept up
a severe artillery action.
Allies Repulsed, Says Berlin.
Berlin (By Way of London), Nov. 6.
—The German headquarters issued tha
following statement:
"The Belgians, assisted by British
and French troops, made a fierce at
tack byway of Nieuport between the
! sea and the inundations, but they were
easily repulsed.
"Near Ypres, southwest of Lille and
south of Berry-au-Bac. In the Argonne
1 region and in the Vosges our attacks
are progressing.
"In the eastern theater of war there
have been no material events."

BIG 01 Offldl m "MINERS
MUST OBEY RULES.,
"Our employes will be dis
charged if they do not obey our
rules and regulations," said an
official of the Jefferson. Clearfield
Coal and Iron Co., in a recent in
terview.
"We have come to the conclu
sion." he added, "if a miner does
not do his duty he has to leave the
village; it makes no difference of
what nationality he may belong,
lie has to take the consequences.
"Some one reported lately that
at Ernest and several other places
it is not safe to go out doors after
night, but 1 have taken this stand,
that all our mining camps will be
civilized and it will not be long be
fore our village will be just as safe
as Indiana.
"We are not going to give any
chance to anybody; when we find
out some one who is not doing his
duty he will be discharged and
sent away from the town. This is
the only way of teaching others to
prevent them from doing wrong.
"This shooting and trouble
which they raise now and then,
must be 'cut out.' "
Since Miis official has accepted
his position with the said company
he has done some remarkable
work. In short, he has cleaned
out many of the "bosses" who not
only care little for the welfare of
the company, but would ask the
foreigners to do them private fa
vors, such as asking for drink,
borrowing money, after which it
was never returned, and these for
igners, not being familiar with
the English language, were com
pelled to keep silent, for fear they
would lose their jobs.
We congratulate the officials,
and we are fully convinced that if
this step is taken we will not be
surprised, but that it will prove a
success.
