This proves that the Ger- mans are finding a serious shortage as regards men with whom to op- pose the invaders. “The Russian forces are still ad- vancing, and for the past three days there has been flerce fighting around Koenigsburg.

This, of course, is very far removed from the capture of the fortress. Obstinate Fighting Continues. “On the Austrian front obstinate fighting continues. The Russians have taken 3,000 prisoners east of Lemberg and 1,000 near Tomachefr, while east of that center the Fif- teenth Hungarian division was sur- rounded and whole regiments are sur- rendering. “The main objective of the Aus- trians appears to be Lublin where des- perate fighting is in progress.’ re- KINDERGARTEN SUPERVISOR.
