London.—The northward drive of (lie Austro-Gernian armies from Ga licia into Poland is daily becoming more formidable and England is puz zled as to whether they propose to make their main effort in this direc tion instead of maintaining a con centrated offensive to the eastward force the Russians out of the southeast tip of Galicia. Whatever the ultimate object is the fighting along the Gnila Lipa river has not abated, and a Berlin official communication not only records pro gress in this section, but further north In the arc around Lemberg, as well as along what has now become the northern front, between the Vis tula and Bug rivers. The Austro-German forces on this front are estimated at 2,000,000 men, and their progress has been rapid. They have crossed the forest fringing the Tanew river and are not far from the Zamosc fortress, twenty-five miles north of the Galician frontier. Only 100 miles to the north is the great Russian base, Brest-Litovsk, linked with Warsaw by important railways and lying almost due east of the Polish capital. The development of the Galician campaign has reached a situation en tirely unexpected by the allies. A few months ago the Russians were at the Carpathian passes, and during the spring months there were confident predictions both in England and France that Hungary would soon be overrun. The British press has been optimistic for weeks that the Rus sians would turn and make a stand, but it now frankly concedes that the new invasion of Russia is serious. The papers, however, place faith in Russia's munition campaign, much, tlie same as the British public is re lying upon David Lloyd George's plan to so equip the British army in France as ultimately to match the Germans in explosives and munitions, especially machine guns. The Arras section maintains its reputation as the storm center of the western front, but despite the fact that the losses are piling up daily neither side has been able to deliver i decisive blow. a cnspatcn irom Atnens says mat the allies have taken the Turkish stronghold of Krithia, on the Gallipoli peninsula, to the western edge of which General Ian Hamilton’s report rarried his forces recently, but there is no confirmation. Gratification over the British progress in Gallipoli is hardly more pronounced than the realization of the tremendous task which faces England and France in their attempt to clear the Turks from their natural defenses barring the way to Constantinople. The first stroke against British na val craft in home waters for some time is announced briefly by the ad miralty, which says that fifteen men have been lost by the mining or tor pedoing of the destroyer Lightning, an old craft laid down two decades ago. Bulgaria, which both sides are us ing every effort to bring into the con flict, has notified its reservists in England to be ready to join the col ors, but the Bulgarian officials here say that this is a purely perfunctory procedure. Many South Dakota Towns Go Dry. Aberdeen, S. D.—At 9 o’clock June 30, curfew sounded the death knell to saloons in five of the larger cities of South Dakota and many smaller towns. Aberdeen is the largest of these cities, and while the liquor element is still clinging to a slender thread of a reversal of Judge Bouck’s "dry” order by the supreme court, all have reduced their stocks preparatory to moving. Jamestown, thirteen miles east of here, is the only wet town in this lo cality. Among the other large cities and towns in the state to go dry are Mitchell, Rapid City. Madison. Mil bank.

STATE WILL BUY CAROF SALMON NEWS OF THE STATE HOUSE Items cf General Interest Gathered From Reliable Sources at State House. Western Newspaper Union News Service. The board of control has decided to purchase a carload of whole salmon, barreled in brine, for the use of state institutions during next winter and spring. It will place the order for fall del.very. The carload will probably be shipped to Lincoln, and redistributed from there to the various institutions. A trial was made last winer by pur chasing a few barrels of the salmon for the insane hospitals at Lincoln and Hastings. The fish can be freshened and then baked, broiled or fried. It proved to be a popular feature of the bin of fare at both places. A quantity of canned salmon for the institutions has just been bought by the board of control for immediate use. Two kinds were offered, one being the "Alaska red” and the other a medium red. The board chose the former at J1.4S per dozen large-sized cans, as against $1.21 for the other variety. Workmen's Compensation Law Two rulings have been made by Labor Commissioner Coffey on ques tions propounded to his department by the Demster Mill company of Beat rice. which involved interpretations of provisions in the Nebraska workmen's compensation law. Mr. Coffey holds: 1. —That where the law says com pensation shall begin on the fifteenth day after injury, it means the fifteenth calendar day and does not permit Sunday or any other days to be de ducted in computing the time. 2. —That the employer, by himself . is not entitled to choose the physi cian who shall attend the injured em ploye, but if he be dissatisfied with the physician who attends the case he may. at his own expense, employ an other physician to make an examina tion for the purpose of ascertaining the extent of the injuries. In case an employe should refuse to submit to an examination, he cannot claim compensation, says Mr. Coffey. The law specifies that the employer shall be liable for reasonable medical and hospital services and medicines fcr the first twenty-one days after the injury, in an amount not exceeding $200. Wants State to Make Them C. W. Pool, secretary of state, has submitted to the board of control a plan for the establishment of a new industry at the penitentiary. He is of the opinion that the state could make a big profit manufacturing automobile numbers. At present the numbers are purchased from an eastern firm at 8^ cents each. This year, the first under the new registration law, Mr. Pool will buy about 50.000 numbers. Next year about 70.000. exclusive of motorcycle numbers, will be needed, inasmuch as this year many secured numbers under the old law before the new went into effect. The industry will not conflict with any private enterprise within the state. Moreover, it would not require extensive machinery. Should Be Registered. An opinion prepared by Assistant Attorney General Roe modifies an opinion written by a former attorney general holding that camphor, glycer ine. and similar substances could be sold only by registered pharmacists. The opinion was asked for by a mem ber of the state board of pharmacy. As to formaldehyde, which is said to be a poison, but used as a germicide and disinfectant, the attorney gener al's department says if it is of such potency as a poison that it should evi dently be classed with poisons as de fined by the statutes, it should be reg istered and labeled as a poison, and sold only by registered pharmacists. State Superintendent Thomas is con fident he will have 100 new consoli dated or union schools organized be fore the end of his first year. School districts throughout the state are dis cussing consolidation and the state su perintendent is urging consolidation wherever he believes it will bring about better rural schools. Probably the largest amount of money ever taken in at any one time by the state treasurer of Nebraska will come into Treasurer Hall's hands July 1. when the state of Idaho pays over $330,500. with accrued interest, on a part of its bonds which were pur chased ten years ago as an investment for the educational trust funds of Ne braska.

Most of these bonds are county, municipal, school district, precinct and other local se curities of this state.

The state of Nebraska has appealed to the supreme court from a decision of the Adams county district court recognizing Louis Keller as the heir to the estate of Henry Keller, who died in Hastings some time ago, leav ing property worth $S.000. Louis claims to be a brother of the latter. The state tried to intervene and es tablish its right to the property, un der the law of escheats, but was twice refused permission to do so; hence the appeal Dicfc 2lbteilung ift fiir bie ^amtlicnaliebcr, meldjc am licbftcn £>cutfd? lcfcn. $ont Sdionulfllic . bCr? enrol)iiiirficn Golfer •• Srieflt'? 9?adi eincr nudrtdgigcit 'IJaufe ift ber iKarfd} ber beuiidi • bfterret* fi'iidt • ungarifdjeii Jpecre naclj Cfteu mieber aufgcnontmcn morben. lXer redite Jliigel ber betufeb * ofterret fifd) * uitgarifajen .^atiptannce, bie nor eintijeit Jagen burd) O&aitjien fegte unb oftlid; non tJr,)c:rn)sl jum £aitett font, mar nad) aufdngltdjcn Grfolgeu tit ber Siidjtung com Xuie* fter auf Ccutberg jurucfgebrdugt morben unb inuRte 3dju8 auf bem fiibiidjen lifer biefcS ^tuffes fitdjcu. ^uramua, ber Crt, 6ci ban ber lie* fcergang bcmerrftclligt morben mar, ruitfetc gerdumt merbeu, murbe aber mieber genommen, unb bte tRuf* feu murbeu mcit uadi tRorben 311* riicfgetrtebcn.
