TIME TO PLANT BULBS Those Who Love Early Spring Flowers j Should Plant Now ''-Vow is the best time t6 plant j I bulbs for spring flowering,'' said H. | A. Holmes, of the Holm%s Seed Coin-1 pany, 119 South Second street. If! I you are a lover of flowers you will ap- I ; preeiate the first to bloom after a long | ; winter, especially crocus tulips, narcis j ■ BUS, hyacinths, .jonquils and daffodils, i with their bright and beautiful colors. | It's wonderful how popular they have! ' become. Our sales of bulbs* grows ! larger every year. This year we had : an unusual demand. The one predomi | nating reason for this increase is the ; | care we exercise in buying our stocks, j j We import most of the bulbs we sell, j I We get them from the largest and best i I growers in Holland. On account of J | the European war many dealers had ■ j trouble in getting a supply of first ! j class and first size bulbs. ' We have! been importing for years and had our I j consignments on the way to America ' when the war broke out. We certainly ! I have some magnificent varieties. Prices ! are about the same as last year." j Owing to the fact that the work on i the new subway interferes in some in- j j stance with people getting to the ! | Holmes Seed Company store, a repre- j j sentative will call on customers with i specimen bulbs if requested to do so. ! i A postal os, phone call will receive! prompt attention.

A resolution was offered urging the Sunday schools of the conference to, teach the temperance lesson on Sunday, November 1, two days before the elec-! I tion day, instead of November 8, a?

The French offi eial statement to-day says only that it is announced that ' Antwerp was taken yesterday hut that the conditions under which it was occupied by the Germans are not yet known. Lo-day's news dispatches indicate that early reports of the damage done by the bombardment probably were jexagegrated and that the cathedral of Notre Dame and other historic structures may have escaped injurv. It is believed in London that the tiual resistance was ! made by a sum 11 garrison who were sacrificed in order to permit the escape of the Belgian army which is now re , ported to be somewhere between Aiitwrep and Ostend j trying to make its way to the lines of the allies. ; German aggression at various places along the line of the field fighting is reported from Paris which, however, declares, that the battle continues under satisfactorv con ditions. The announcement of the French War Office says that the entire battle front of the allies has been i maintained in spite of violent attacks by the Germans at several points. v ! Cavalry lighting on the left wing of the allies between La Bassee and Cassel continues wit-hot notable result. Progress to the north of the Oise and in the region of St. Mihiel is claimed for French arms, i Paris reports also partial successes by the Russians on j the east Prussian frontier and that the siege of Przemysl I continues under conditions favorable to the Russians. A news dispatch from Russian Poland says that a Rus sian attack extending from Wilkowyszki along a front j of sixty miles to a point below Lyek, East Prussia, was | repulsed, the Russians losing heavily while the German ! losses were light. A dispatch from Amsterdam asserts that Gennanv is j expecting momentarily a declaration of war upon her bv | Portugal. i Christian refugees ai'e reported as arriving at Cyprus from Turkish ports. They report great unrest in Turkey. The trial of the assassins of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand and his consort will be opened in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia, on Monday. Twenty-one Servians and four Croatians, ten of the total being under 20 vears of age, are assued of high treason. i FRENCH CITIES ARE MARKED FOR CERTAIN DESTRUCTION London, Oct. 10, 3.35 A. M.—The \ correspondent of the "Express'' in! Paris telegraphs the following: "Tho immediate objective of the German army is now 110 longer Paris, ■l> ut the channel ports. To sum up the German plan—the first blow ort Paris having failed—the second blow must I be aimed at England. "The new line of the opposing forces means that northern France ip destined | to suffer a desolation similar to that already visited on Belgium. All of franco s rioh cities in the north have been marked for certain destruction and ruin. "The French general staff is still I confident of success, but it is recognized | that there can be no decisive victory while the masses engaged are so enor mous. It is possible to hope for the de ■feat of the enemy's plan only if there can be a constant stream of reinforce ments.
