MIDDLE CLASSES | IN RUSSIA HOPE FOR A REPUBLIC | pea Seek Happy Medium Between Anarchy and Monarchy, Says Weser Zeitung Amsterdam, July 11.—Describing conditions in Petrograd as told him by a German doctor, the correspondent at Kiev of the Weger Zeitung says j the Russian middle classes do not }want a monarchy.

OF GLORY Herole Memories of, the Past Inspire Many Regiments of the Army of the United States. We have heard of those British regt- ments the “Black Watch,” “Seaforth Highlanders,” “Inntskillen Fusileers,” “Sherwood Foresters,” and some oth- érs, famous for the long years they have been in existence, for their herole deeds in past wars, for the traditions that have come down through genera- tions of soldiers, of what they did at | Waterloo, or Inkermann, or at the ‘slege of Lucknow, Who, outside the army Itself, knows that we in America have regiments |more than a century old, with herole traditions, too? That fact was brought to mind the other day by a little news item recording the annual dinner In Camp Engle Pass, Texas, of the off- cers’ mess of the Third United States Infantry regiment, and said the {tem: “Ever since the battle of Monterey, in the Mexican war, when for three days the Third bore the brunt of a great battle, it has been the custom for the officers to assemble annually for a regimental dinner.” (* “Buti the history of that!-regiment goes away back of that battle in Mex- {co in September, 1847. It goes back over 125 years of active service, since its organization in 1792 as the “Infan- try of the Third Sublegion.” Four years later it became the Third in- fantry, and so it has remained ever since, This famous regiment was not in the Revolutionary war, but many vetcrans of that ‘war were in its first organiza- tion. It was part of the first’ regular army of the United States, and fought in the War of 1812 and in the cam- paigns against warring Creek, Chip- pewa, Sioux and Blackfeet Indians. In ,the days before there was a house or ‘a road in Kansas territory it did duty there. It went through the Mexican war, the Civil war and the Spanish- American. war. 5 But there is an older regiment than the Third. The First regiment of in- fantry was organjzed In 1789, from a regiment of state troops which fought. ‘nder Washington in the Revolution- ary war, and it is yet in existence, its colonel being Darel b. Howell of Iowa. This regiment hag a history of glori- ous deeds, too; and both these old regiments will have those traditions of the past to spur them on to greater deedg in this war. 2g Indians Making Good Soldterd, ~ ‘At a soldiers’ camp in Texas there is 2 Cherokee, Jesse Fixon. He can't talk English, but he can talk the al- Ned language. A few days ago he wanted to convey some message to a lieutenant, and, using an interpreter and. sign language, he declared he wanted to go to France right away and bayonet the kaiser all by ‘himself. There are some noted members of the various tribes in service. George Baconrind, son of Chief Baconrind, of the Osage nation, is a good soldier and patriotic. His father, back in the Osage country, still wears a blanket. Herbert Whiteshleld, 2 noted base- ball player, sought by several major league clubs, is in the army. At one of the cantonments Major Koehler, long West Point swordmaster, put the men through strenuous exercise, was play for Indians. Some men were overcome and ad to drop out, but not one of the Indians did. The Indlans, too, are not only healthy and strong as a race, but they follow all the sanitary regulations in camp. * grade of captain. Pe EXPLOSION KILLS FOUR.

Senator Smith of Georgia presented one from Atlanta operators saying they were diseharg- ed because of union membership.

According to the ex- press messenger and mail clerks, there was not a large amount of money in either car. When the two cars had been stripped of valuables, the ban- dits fled in automobiles which had either been left near by or brought up by confederates. Members of the train crew start- ed for this city and found the engine and two cars deserted. They ran back to the coaches, coupled up the train and pro- ceeded with the wounded to Par- sons, Kan. The bandits are de- scribed as young men, although all were masked. Their famil- iarity with the train schedule and their handling of the engine and the detached cars was the feature that attracted the par- ticular attention of railroad men, as it was taken to indicate at least some of them had had rai way experience.

Sunday’s attack took the form of a drive that carried the French line for- ward two-thirds of a mile on a two mile front north of the Longpont re- gio nin this area. The gain here was extended on Tuesday, while during the day of Wednesday the front of opera- the outskirts of Longpont and Corcy were reached. During last night, a stoday's state- ment from Paris shows, the French made good their occupation of Corcy and drove in still further south on the line for a short distance. The net results together with an earlier operation further north late in June when a dangerous salient east of the Laversine ravine which the Germans created in their June offens- ive was wiped out, is that the French front now runs in almost a straight ine along a series of strong positions for a distance ‘of approximately 12 miles from the Aisne southward to be- low Corey. Between this and the American sec- tor to the south, northwest of Cha- teau Thierry there is still » westward bulge inthe line. The French pres- sure on the north and the American on the south, however, seems likely ‘to result in the wiping out of this salient by the continuation of the pres- ent entente tactics of local plunges in this sector, if the Germans hold off much longer in launching their ex- pected renewed offensive. ivy W, 8, Bo = PROTEST HUN POLICIEES.
