Sixth Day of Battle
Of Ypres Featured
By Trench Attacks
London, June 30. The sixth- day
of the British bombardment of the
German linea from Ypres to the
Somme was featured by an increasing
number of trench raids.
These raids are Invariably preceded
by shelling the enemy's trench, with
here and there a concentrated fire
by the new trench mortars, the range
and general effectiveness of which
have been greatly increased.
Yesterday the greatest activity was
on the center of the British line,
where gas was used with deadly ef
fect in the region of La Bassee.
Alt the morning newspapers today
print lengthy headquarters' accounta
of the' fighting, which testify to the
extravagance in the use of shells by
the British forces. The Daily Mail
says:
The Germans are answering our
great bombardment and are well sup
plied with shells; but . they have
never before employed artillery on
such a scale on so vide a front as
we are doing. An extensive, as
against an in-extensive, method is now
on trial and has clearly much agitated
the enemy, causing him many losses
and left our artillery free to enter
his trenches at night, here, there and
everywhere."
New Council for

clerks. Now the government will
furnish and pay them. '
Miss Bessie B. Hart has been ap
pointed superintendent of this station
by Postmaster Wharton. Miss Clara
L. Patterson has been appointed clerk.
Both these young women have been
stamp clerks at the main postoffice.
Their places will be taken by W. F.
Dunn, .who ha been at the Union
depot postal station for several years,
and Claude M. Shannon, who will be
transferred from the registry section.

ment, since the parcel post has as
sumed large proportions, is to have
men clerks at the stamp windows, be
cause they are better fitted to handle
and weigh large packages.
William L. Eckhardt will be trans
ferred from the registry section to
take Mr. Dunn's old place at the
Union depot.

Autos Take Place of Cars
In Bustling Clarinda
Clarinda, la., June 30. (Special.)
The statement made by the Ames
college professor that Iowa has more
autos and flivvers than bathtubs is
not startling to Clarindans. This city
perhaps has more autos in proportion
to population than any other city in
the state. On account of this fact
Clarinda is without street, cars, and in
all probability will remain so for
many years, despite the large area
covered by the city proper.
Clarinda is a city of 5,500 and there
is one machine to every eleven per
sons. 1
"Everybody knows everybody else.
When going anywhere in a hurry it's
just a matter of stopping 'Bill or
Jim' as "he whizzes by and inviting
him to haul one to the distant desti
nation," declared Senator Sipe, one of
the leading attorneys of Clarinda, who
is also keen on statistics,
"However," added Mr. Stipe, "Clar
inda has more bathtubs than autos,
I'm sure."

Guardian Suggests
Clemency for Sir
Roger Casement
London, June 30. (11:40 a. m.)
The Manchester Guardian, one of the
most influential papers in the coun
try, makes a direct pica for clemency
for Sir Roger Casement.
While admitting that nn other sen
tence but that of death could have
been pronounced by the court, the
Guardian says:
"Casement was a fanatic, and his
crimes- like that of many other fana
tics, are free from the taint of sordid
ness and meanness. The death pen
alty will do nothing to kill such
dreams as his. Rather it will give
them life.
"For the sake of the new Ireland
which we hope to see, it is a moment
for clemency."
An indirect plea for mercy is made
by other papers on the ground that
the execution of Casement would not
assist in settling the Irish problem.

London, June1 30. The will of
Field Marshal Earl Kitchener, the
British secretary of war, who lost his
life in the sinking of the cruiser
Hampshire off the Orkneys June S,

of 20,000 to his nephew, Henry
Hamilton Kitchener, ana the Broome
Park estate, and all lands in Kent
county to his nephew, Commander
Henry Franklin Chevallier Kitchener
of the Royal navy, a son of the new
earl. .
To Colonel Oswald A. G. Fitzger
ald, Lord Kitchener's personal mili
tary, secretary, who was drowned
with the field marshal, was willed all
of Kitchener's lands in British East
Africa, amounting to about 5,000
acres, with plantations, etc.
The will was dated November 2,
