United States Will Lend.
Big Sums to Russ Government
Washington, April 18. The Ameri
can government is only awaiting defi
nite word from Russia as to the needs
of that nation before taking active
steps to strengthen the new govern
ment and .make more effective its re
sistance to Germany. No specific re
quest for assistance has been received.
It is taken for granted that large
sum will be lent to Russia if it is de
sired, because it is agreed, that the
United States should go to almost
any lengths to assist the new demo
cratic regime there. A group of"
American engineers will be sent to
Russia, if requested, to assist, in. sys

(from a 8taff Correapondent of The Asso

Grand Headquarters of the French
Army on the French Front (Monday
Night), April 18 (Delayed). Not only
did the French army get astride and
partly around the so-called Hinden
burg line today, but, in doing so, they
captured many thousands of German
prisoners.
After one of the most intensive ar
tillery bombardments of the war, the
French tonight advanced along anoth
er twenty-five mile front. Shells were
poured daily into the German posi
tions and this morning from north of
Soissons to just west of Rheims the
main "body of the Germans,
was then sealed.
Its' fate
Pleased By Their Capture.
Meanwhile the bulk of the French
troops continued their advance both
here and on other parts of the line.
Telephonic reports from various
sectors told of the successes, some
times big, sometimes small, of the dif
ferent corps engsged. Everywhere be
hind the advancing French groups of
German prisoners were to be seen on
their way to captivity.
Before evening more than 10,000 had
been counted and others were arriv
ing. Some of the prisoners told of
exceedingly severe losses, their com
pany being reduced in several cases
from 250 to, eighty men or there
abouts. All seemed pleased over their cap
ture, some of them saying that there
would be many desertions except for
the constant vigilance of their su
periors, as most of them were tired of
the war. t

Part of the brigade's task today
was the capture of a r?sUion forming
one of the most difficult problems
along the line owing to its being un
dermined its whole length and
breadth by deeply tunnelled quarries
whose galleries were immune to ar

Washington, April 18. (Special
Telegram.) The republican members
of committees of the sixty-fifth con
gress were announced in the house
today. .
Reavis to Judiciary.
The only change in the Nebraska
delegation, so far as the republicans
are concerned is with Mr. Reavis, who
takes a place on the important judici
ary committee. Under 'a rule adopted
in the sixty-third congress, no mem
ber can be a member of certain de
fined committees like judiciary, ways
and means, appropriations, navy af
fairs and still hold a place on minor
committees.
In view of his decided promotion
Mr. Reavis will leave the committee
on coinage, weights and measure, ex
penditures in the Department of Agri
culture and war claims, ot which he
was a member in the sixty-fourth
congress.

In the Iowa delegation there are a
few changes. Representative Ramsey
of Bloomfield, leaves elections and
invalid pensions and goes to the com

smoking
The highest type of execu
tive is the man with the
ability to think twice before
he acts once. Such a man
absorbs advice but re
serves the right to act
according to his own
judgment.
This type of man, in smok
ing, will probably be care
ful to select a mild cigar:
designed, like Tom Moore;
for pleasant smoking.
He will certainly find pleasure
in the mild fragrance of this

Tornado Topples
Small Buildings
In Seward County
Tamora, Neb., April 18. A torna
do, accompanied by rain and heavy
hail, swept over the place about 5: JO
p. m. yesterday. Barns, windmills and
other outbuildings were swept away
and a few houses were unroofed.
Hardly a barn in the town escaped
some damage and scores of small
buildings were completely wrecked.
So far as can be learned tonight no
one was injured.
The farming country around Sta
plehurt, in this county, suffered con
siderable damage.
For along stretch hardly a wind
mill is left. Some of the hailstones
were so heavy as to penetrate roofs.

IT probably seems unusual for us to offer pumps at
reduced prices right at the beginning of the season,

reasonable time, we deem it best to clear away
these certain lines quickly.
