drop the question for tcie p-eseut. so far
as I am concerned personally. I leave
it to you ministers to decide the mat

eniphat statement regarding vester
iay s election. He told how he bad .vis
ited polling placed aid found drunken

ty officials whose actions he considered

I couid have had a jackass elected Unit

It wa< explained, however, that the
preaching wilt not begin until after 3
o'clock, aud inasmuch as Dr. Stough

Last Night's Sermon
' Despite the fact that it was election
' night, nearly T.OOO persons heard
Evangelist Stoug'a at the tabernacle
last night. Among his striking asser
tions of the evening were, that persons
who must cough in the audience should
buy cough drops, that he had seen
"judges of election so soused they
could hardly count the votes." that
Jesus Christ was not a mtnister but an
evangelist, that the Devil is one of the
most faithful church attendants, anl
wears not horns but a high silk hat,
that there isn't anv church in the coun
try big enough to hokl both the Lord
and the Devil at the same time, that it
is the duty of every pastor to make his

ALLEGED GERMAN RETREAT
IS PLEASmG NEWS TO PARIS
Pari*. Nov. 4, 6.55 A. M.—What
tho Belgian official communication
designated as tho '' precipitate re
treat'' of the German* before the ad
vance of the allies oit the Yser river
in Belgium was pleasing news to Par
isians to-day, even though previous
developments had given the hope that
this soon would be the case.
The significance of the move is the
chief topic of discussion. Opinions dif
fer somewhat as to the import of the
withdrawal of the Germans who, in
falling back, it was stated, suffered
considerable losses.
There is also much speculation as
to the destination of the Germans as
tho Belgian communication merely
stated that they were retreating to
wards the east. The fact that the al
lies retained in this section tho posi
tions they occupied the day before
would seem to indicate the Germans
had not been pushed very far.
General Bert haut, the military
critic, in his comment on the news, did
not regard the retreat ns a well-de-
victory for the allies. To him it
appeared more like a falling back as
the result of exhaustion and because
the Germans found it impossible to
remain longer in the inundated conn
try. He poiuted out ttiat the Belgians
similarly had been obliged to with
draw to the railroad from Dixniude
to Nienport in consequence of the in
undations.
What appeared more important to
General Berthaut was the advance
south from Dixmude. This is the part
of the Belgian front already much dis
puted. which extends from Dixmude
to the east of Ypres.
Lieut. Colonel Roussot, the critic of
the "Petit Parisien," however, view
ed the retreat from the Yser in an
other light and said it was more than
a simple check. "The retreat in fact
is partial," he wrote, "but it is none
the less significant,"
GERMANS CLAIMING MORE
SUCCESSES NEAR ARRAS
Berlin, Nov. 4, via London, 5 P. M.
—An official communication was
given out at German army hcadquar
j ters to-day as follows:
! "Our attacks on Ypres to the north
j of Arras aud to the east of Soissons,
are progressing slowlv but successful
ly. V
"South of Verdun and in the
Vosges, French attacks have been re
pulsed.
"In the eastern arena of the war
there have been no material develop
! meats."
London, Nov. 4. 3,20 P. M.—A
I Belgian Socialist Senator who return
| ed to-day from an official visit to King
Albert, said that the allies are now
j within ten miles of Ostend but he
! does not believe that the Germans are
! preparing for a general retreat
I through Belgium but rather for a final
j supreme assault which would be made
j at a point southeast of Ypres.
The Senator estimates that the Ger
mans have 500.000 men in the vicinity
mentioned but he said that it was the
: general impression of the allied staff's
i that the German ( effort would be a fail
ure because their troops not only were
weary but to a great extent were
I made up of youthful and aged re
, cruits.
When the Gorman march down the
| coast began the Senator declared
scarcely any one on the ground ex
pected they would be kept out of Bel
, gin m. No opinion «as completely
j changed and freely expressed the Ger
mans never would reach their objec
tive.
