LATE WAR SEWS SUMMARY' Continued From Flrnt Page. ing armies to the north and south are j making little, if any progress. The i possibility of German occupation of! Warsaw is seen in Petrograd, where it j is said that if the Russians should with- j draw front the city for strategic rea-! sons its capture by the Germans should not be considered as important. Entporor Nicholas is again at the front, having gone on this occasion to I Transcaucasia, where his troops arc seeking to thrust back the Turks and accomplish Russia's historic aim of planting her flag on the Bosphorus. A; Turkish report states that an attempt! | of Russians to land troops on the shore ( of the Black sea near Batum was re -1 pulsed with heavy loss to the invaders. Germany is proud of her adventurous men of war in the hour of their de ■ struction. The Admiralty at Berlin points out that the warships defeated by the British in the South Atlantic had been for four months on the high seas, deprived of the use of ports for ' obtaining supplies or repairs, notwith- j standing which they were always able ; jto obtain coal. The cruiser Dresden, i last survivor of the Ave warships j which composed the squadron, is re j ported to have been bottled up in the ' Straits of Magellan, and hor fate is still 1 in doubt. Emperor William, announcement of \ | whose illness has been followed by j ; various unauthenticated reports that ; his condition was serious, is said to I have improved considerably. Little is known concerning the pres ! ent conflict in France and Belgium, ex | cept that the fighting is more spirited I ! and that the allies are making broad, J | though indefinite, claims to success. I The reported turn in the fortunes of j i war in Servia, where only recently the j Austrians were described as pushing the | defending army to such lengths as to ! 1 threaten its destruction, is said in Nish to be decisive. The claim is made that ! the Austrians are retreating in disorder ! all along the line and that more than 1 ii2,(K»(> prisoners have been taken. j RULE SAVED COLONEL'S LIFE Since Boyhood He Carried Extra Glasses and Assassin's Shot Hit Case New York, Dec. 11. —Theodore Roose velt, speaking last night at the Museum of Natural History on "The Fauna ot ■ Western Brazil," referred to a boyhood adventure lie once had. When hunting snowy owls his spectacles were swept 1 off by a twig. From that time, lie said,! ho made it a rule to carry au extra pair I of glasses in a steel ease. • Persons in the audience recalled that 1 w'hen Colonel Roosevelt was shot by an | assassin in Milwaukee, in 1912, the bul- j let struck a steel spectacle case iu his I pocket, which saved his life. Speaking of the food upon which ] he subsisted in lira'/.il, Colonel Roose- 1 , velt said: "Parrots are no-t so bad when they! [ .ire not tough; but monkey meat—well. , Mr. 'Homadav could leavo me alone in j the monkey house at the Bronx Zoo 1 . without any fear of the safety of the . other inmates." Colonel Roosevelt also discussed his , exploration of the River of Doubt. « HOLD INTERESTING MEETING " Dauphin County Historical Society Ad- j ! dressed by Benjamin M.
