LET US SHOW YOU. X-N. McCausland & Co. 221 S. Tryon Street. tackinsr our forces in Galicia is oper ating, will serve to give : some idea of the magnitude of the actions in this region. The significance of the oper ations in the vicinity of Stry is found in the fact that-they were an endeav or to turn our-front opposed to the phalanxes under General--' von Mack ensen. The eventual success of the en emy in the direction of Stry and Lem berg would have been of great help to the offensive of General Macken sen. Failure, on the other hand, would have meant that Mackensen's opera tions were merly a series of -fruitless frontal attacks. . "The above mentioned sector on the Dneister river, however, was not the scene of the principal fighting, even with regard to the numbers of troops engaged. On May 15 the enemy closely following our troops, retiring from the Carpathians., met our oppo sition in the region of Drohobycz, northwest of Stry and in the vicinity of Belachow. On the 19th the enemy brought all his forces into action, but at the end of two days he was compell ed to quit this offensive, having lost tens of thousands of men. "His only success in eight days' fighting was the turning of our. right wing near Stonsko, with the threat of a possible outflanking movement. During this week " we " remained pas sive, confining our operations to ex terminating the enemy as he approach ed our trenches. The next four days were devoted by the enemy to bring ing together heavy artillery and sup porting detachments. May 25 saw the beginning of the decisive attack, and the fihgting. A powerful force, com posed of three German divisions, suc ceeded at the price of incredible sac rifices in carrying Stry. -Perceiving the exhaustion of the Austrians attack ing us they constituted the right wing of the opposing army we took the offensive and drove them back. "For three days, May 30, 31 and June 1, we were undecided whether to attempt to turn the Germans, who had broken through our front' near Stry, or to fall back on the Dneister. The general situation in' Galicia fi nally caused us to adopt the latter course. The night of June 2 the ene my demonstrated against our bridge steads in the direction of Mikalajow, losing several thousand men. "The principal attack was delivered by the army under General Bothmer at a point more to the east. The .at tack against Zidaczow was repulsed, but on June 6 General von Bothmer crossed the Dneister near Juravno and on June 8 occupied the left bank for a distance of 15 miles. "June 8 and June 9 the bulk of the German forces were decisively defeat ed and thrown back across the Dneis ter. Nevertheless, on June 13, the German commander, beginning a gen eral offensive, delivered a new at tack with the remains of his regiments The principal German forces moved along the right bank of the Stry, and attacked our bridge head near Zid aczow. "Toward the 15th of June the time came for another reverse of the ene my. At Berezina and Krutevska alone we killed with the bayonet and buried 1,000 Germans who" had abused the white flag. "Between May 29 and June "15 we captured in this sector 40,000 prison ers, including , 860 officers p over 100 machine gunes and two dozen can non. "The total losses of the enemy on a front of 38 miles were between 120, 000 and 150,000 men. "Dense additional columns descend ed the slopes of the Carpathian moun tains daily and reinforced the enemy. Many supplementary detachments originally destined for eastern Prus sia, met their final fate in the .val ley of the Stry. , ... : ,t The addition of considerable rein forcements brought into the scene of operations the German army under the command of General von Boehm Ermolli. , "We have noted, serious symptoms of demoralization which are begin ning to show themselves in the' ranks of the enemy in the vicinity of Mic kolajow. "It has been interesting - to trace the reflection of events on the Dneis ter in the official military announce ments of the enemy. Every step, before it has been completed by the Germans has been reported in their announce ments as a German victory and a dis orderly flight on the part of the Rus sians. The following Iay the announce ments would say that the German army was successfully resisting the pressure of the Rusians, and on the third day that the Rusians had great forces at their disposal in the region in qeustion. Such a sequence and method of reporting has been noticed in the German announcements on three different occasions during dur ing the 30 days fighting on the Dneister." WIT. CAftMEL HEAV ILY ENTREHGHE! Jerusalem,, May 2. (Correspond ence of the Associated Press.) Mount Carmel, whose lower slopes have al ready been under French shell fire, is heavily entrenched by the Turks, although the mountain is sacred alike to Christian , and Moslem. On the low er slopes is situated the town of Hai fa. The German consulate in the town, was bombarded Uy the French in re taliation for the - Germans desecrat ing the graves of the soldiers of Na poleon. Carmel is a hill, or rather a group of hills, bounded on two sides by- the Mediterranean and overlooking . the ! plain of Kishon. Above the town stands the famous Carmelite monas tery. On the summit of the Mount, the German colony of Haifa, which came there sixty years ago to' await the second coming of Christ, has erected a monument to commemorate the visit of the Kaiser. Haifa is an important point, as it i3 the terminus of a branch- of rail way tapping the Hedjaz line, which crosses the desert regions between Damascus and Medina. This railway, spanning the Jordan river, is used by the Turks to transport, Arab troops. Biobbs Bjones is the most unlucky fellow at-cards I ever met ' - Slobbs Then I suppose he is lucky in love.
