IN MIDST OF THE RCCXIES.
From Saturday's Paiiy.
Fur two months Rachel Living
ston, and Beulah Sans, were in the
heart of the Rockies, amidst soli
tude, on one hand and grandeur on
the ether. The Rockies with their
towering cliiTs, reaching the sky,
gr.vo a person an impression of the
greatness of the Maker of ii all. In
Et os Park, they spent a great deftl
of time, in viewing the wonders of
nature, going often on foot many
miles per day, and with the snappi-ne-s
of the mounuun air, made it
a pleasure instead of a task, to walk
inilfs a d'y. From F.-tes Park they
went to Denver, where they saw a
irigiity city in the midst of the
meuntuiii fastness.' To . Colorado
Springs, and "vicinity r.cis the nex't
place to which they went.- Here is
Use delight of all tourists, atul.it is
here that Pike's Peak shows to the
ter:ial snow can he seen any clear
day from it-; st reefs.
Manitou, with its wonders is an
ever inle: es.ting place for the travel
er, and here they spent a while in
the museum of the world, made by
Xatur'. From there to Puehlo and
Boulder, all interesting and Instruc
tive. This kind of trip give- -t he
teaehcrs a fund of information which
enahles them to interest the most
m:it cresting pupil, and reclaim him
from his pranks, and dislike to
study. They returned home a few
days since thinking that the time
s-peiit w.'s well paid in the benefits
to health, and information which
they received.

Gen. Maurice's Weekly 'Report.
London. Aug. 31. The lat week
has been marked by a pause on all
the western front a. pause which
was inevitable after the great suc
cesses of the previous vvee-k, a pause
accentuated by the bad weather
that affected the operations all the
way from' the North sea to the Ital
ian seacoast,' said Idaj. Gen. ! IJ.
Maurice, chief director of military
operations at the war oflk-e, in hij
weekly talk to the officials.
"At the moment it 13 the Italian
front where the situation is the most
interesting. Here also, after a really
important advance, there now comc.t
a pause pending the readjustment of
the artillery positions. There is
much more to be done during these
pauses. The problem is whether
General Cadorna will be able to get
his guns posted for the renewal of
operations before the Austrians get
up adequate reserves, some of which
are being brought from the Russo-
Itumanian front. That is the prob
lem in the pauses in all these battles
the race between the preparation
of offense and defense.
"In Flanders the process of wear
ing down the Germans bv contin
uous bombardment, continuous air
fighting and continuous infantry
raids, is being kept up and is hav
ing a far greater effect then is gen
erally realized. This effect is shown
in the constant necessity imposed
on the Germans of withdrawing and
replacing units.
"We now are in the first phase of
the Flanders battle. We are ex
hausting with good success the Ger
man reserves, and later w ill come
the second phase to which we are
all looking forward confidently. 0
"On the Russian front there has
been another regrettable incident,"
namely, the voluntary withdrawal of
certain Russian units near Czernow-
itz. The result wa3 ncglicible. but
it serves to show, in conjunction
with General Korniloff's speech, the
state to which the Russian army has
come and. makes it even more re
markable that the Germans have
'been unable to achieve more.
