LONDON GAINS CONFIDENCE
LONDON, Nov. 14—All the reports this morning
from Flanders agree that the force of the German attacks
has been lessened and that the enemy has apparently dis
covered the futility of the attempt to reach the French
coast. The feeling is growing in England that Germany
will never be able to secure its coveted base on the I* rench
coast for its invasion of England and this fact alone is le
garded as most pleasant It is the general opinion now
that if Germany had succeeded in its attempt to crush the
French in the beginning it would have immediatly opened
an attack on the English coasts .The belief is therefore
general that having failed in its first object Geimany has
decided to invade Great Britain anyhow while it holds the
French on the present lines. The great armed force which
the government is now about to raise will undoubtedly be
maintained for the greater part at home to meet the Ger
mans should they by any chance secure a footing on Brit
ish soil. It is very evident that the German fleet is hus
banding its strength for the supreme effort when it will,
as experts have said over and over again, act in conjuction
with the German army. It is fully known that Germany’s
chief object now is to humiliate England. All reports com
ing from Berlin show a feeling of pity rather than anger
for France while the bitterness of the hatred for England
is fiendishly intense.__

“ARIZONA” TONIGHT.
Familiar as is “Aizona” to the
play-going public, the presentation of
! this play as a photo-drama is said
to contain many features which add
to its attractiveness beyond the spok
en drama. Scenes impossible to be
shown upon the regular stage are
; here projected with a background of
nature itself. More than one hundred
and fifty people were employed in the
making of this film, which was staged
j under the direct supervision of Aug
i ustus Thomas. For the principal
characters a notable cast was provid
ed, headed by Cyril Scott as Lieu
tenant Denton, and (iail Kane as Bon
iat. Robert Broderick, who created
the role of “Canby, the Ranchman,”
i in the original production, was secur
! ed by Mr. Thomas for the photo-play,
f In spite of the cost of this feature the
j price of admission will be only fifty
cents, children twenty-five cents. This
great picture is now being run on the
! outside to packed houses.
Mrs. McNeer has been specially en
gaged to play to the feature films.

BUNNELL’S OFFICE
WAS NOT BURNED
Judge S. 0. Morford who has re
turned from a flying business trip to
I Valdez brings back the news that the
! story of the burning of Bunnell's of
| fice was a lie pure and simple ,and a
cheap lie told by some feckless in
dividual whose hazy understanding
thought it could do Wickersham harm.
The story was founded on the fact
that a shack standing on tfunnelPs
property on the beach was injured by
fire. The loss was about fifty dollars.
The Seward-Iditarod mail for the
third time left this morning.
Paul Buckley, accompanied by Mrs.
