RUSSIANS PRESS FORWARD
LONDON, Jan. 21.—The Russians have now under
taken a three fold assault against both the Germans and
the Austrians in the different parts of the great eastern
battle ground. The Russian advance has assumed steam
roller characteristics and an advance into Last Prussia
has been reported that threatens the German lines ot com
munications in Poland. There is nothing very definite
stated in these dispatches which are unofficial but
their tone is very optimistic. Trench warfare continues
in the Polish theater as in the western field of war but
only very small results can be reported by either side.
Russia is exulting, however, over great German losses
which are so large that they are bound to tell on the in
vaders from this time forward. The greatest losses have
been sustained by the enemy in the effort to hold the pre
sent positions against the attacks of the great masses of
Russian troops employed in the assaults. It cannot be
denied that if the Germans lose so much in their defense
of their positions the Russians must also be losing very
heavily but Russia can stand such losses so much better
than Germany that the advantage remains with the troops
of the Grand Duke Nicholas.
AUSTRIANS BROKEN
LONDON, Jan. 21.—Dispatches from Petrograd
state that in southern Poland and Galicia the Austrian
resistance has been broken leaving Transylvania open to
the Russians. The Russian advance in that quarter will
bring it further along the Roumanian border and towards
the Servian line. Should the Russians succeed in reaching
Servia and joining its forces to those of the Servians an
immense advantage would be gained. Reports that Rou
mania will enter the war still continue. It is plain now,;
however, that the positive statements made some time agoi
that Roumania had decided to join the allies were pre
mature. Her sympathies lie in favor of the allies but there
are manv other considerations of a grave nature which
she must take into account before committing herself to
such a struggle. Russia is undoubtedly bringing strong!
pressure on her but Germany and Austria are pressing;
just as strongly on the other side and she finds herself in a
peculiar predicament which is certainly not simplified by,
the action that Bulgaria might take if Roumania cast her,
lot with the allied armies. Just now the aid of hundreds!
of thousands of trained Roumanian troops would be in
estimable to the Russians in the southeast.

NEWS NOTES
A. Shyman, a young travelling man
who is well known here, arrived on
the Watson.
A clipping from an exchange in the
Alaska column today shows that the
new federal attorney for the First div
ision is from Tennessee. The Presi
dent evidently thinks that southerners
should boss the northerners. To prove
his neutrality he ought to send some
Alaskans to jobs down south. They
would be just as much at home in a
cotton case as Smiser or Smish or
whatever his name is, would be in a
mining case.
Mr. and Mrs. Guy Whitehead are
moving into Frank Young’s house to
take up their residence.
Harry Ellsworth arrived with

A little dullness is apparent in the

LONDON SHRINKS.
T ~ t
(By The Associated Press.)
LONDON, Jan 20.—For the first
time in years a new edition of Lon
don’s city directory shows a shrink
age. The 1914 directory weighed ex
actly 15 pounds. The directory for
1915 has wasted away to 14 pounds
14 ounces. Part of the two ounce loss
is due to the disappearance of Ger
man and Austrian firms. This direc
tory contains the names of business
houses, professional men and house
holders, but the population living in
hotels of boarding houses is not men
tioned, so that it is difficult to ascer
tain the shrinkage due to enlistments.
SEATTLE, Jan. 5.—Richard J.
Ringwood, 37 yenrs old, yesterday as

BOY SCOUTS JOIN
THE REGULAR ARMY.
(By The Associated Press *
LONDON, Jan. 20.—There are now i
over 10,000 old Boy Scouts serving!
the army at the front and making’
splendid soldiers, says General Baden
Powell, chief of the organization.
The General has just returned from,
York, where he made a satisfactory
arrangement with the education auth
orities in regard to the scouts serv
ing as messengers and office boys in
the military head quarters there. By
this arrangement, the boys give one
week to the army and an alternate
i week to their schools.
A significant announcement is the j
1 opening of the Scouts' Defense Force!
to boys of 15, which would give them j
a year of training, it is said, in case,
the age of enlistment in the army is^
J lowered to fifteen years.
