[" Sherbrooke Daily Record.Established 1897 SHERBROOKE, QUE.THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1915 ONE CENT BRITISH CAPTURE INPORTANT POSITION AT GALLIPOLI Now Control One of Hie Main Mlsh Supply Roads In Anafarta Valley.Russians are Developing Unexpected Strength In the North and Gain Local Success atVIlna.Four Turkish Transports Sunk by British Submarines.London, Sept.2.\u2014 (Special) \u2014The British public has been greatly Cheered by the version of the recent heavy fighting at the Dardanelles contained in the official report received last night from General Sir Ian Hamilton, the British commander-in-chief.This report had been awaited eagerly, in view of the assertions of Constantinople that the Allies had been repulsed with heavy losses.Sir Ian claims that his forces operat-f ing on the northern portion of the line captured an important tactical t point commanding the Buvuk-Anafarta Valley to the east and north, as well as making an appreciable gain along the Australian front.If the British colonials now dominate Anafarta their guns should have a clear field to fire upon one of the main Turkish supply roads leading towards Chi Baba.The Turks, however, have an alternative line of communication with this part of their front.Constantinople has admitted no advance on the part of thè Allies, \u2022HUS8IANS DEVELOP STRENGTH.The Russians are developing unexpected strength In the north where they state they are not only holding Field Marshal Von Hindenburg, but have gained a local success near Vilna.Various changes have been made in the Russian command, the most important being the return of General Russky to the leadership of the Northern Army.TRANSPORT SUNK BY AIRMAN.Paris, Sept.2.\u2014 (Special) \u2014Announcement to this effect was made here today offictally as follows ! \u201cIn the Dardanelles the last week of August It has been calm throughout on the southern front.In the northern zone British troops delivered successful attacks which put them in possession of a hillock to the west of Buvuk Anafarta, which had been contested keenly, \"To the transport sunk on the 2oth of August by one of our aviators In the anchorage at Acbashiliman, it is necessary to add four transports torpedoed by British submarines, two of them at the same point and two others between Gallipoli and Nagana.The guns of the battleship have hit several vessels anchored in the Straits.'' ARTILLERY ENGAGEMENTS AT NEUVILLE.Paris, Sept.2, 2.30 p.m.\u2014 (Special) \u2014The War Office this afternoon gave out.a statement on the progress of hostilities which reads as follows t \"Fighting with hand grenades occurred in the course of the night in the vicinity of Souchez.There were several artillery engagements in the section of Neuville, near Roye.\u201cIn the Vosges fighting with bombs occurred at Schratzmannelle.\u2019\u2019 SLOWING UP OF GERMAN ADVANCE.Petrograd, Sept.2.\u2014 (Special) By Frederick Bennet.) \u2014 To-day\u2019s (Wednesday) news shows more than a steady slowing-yp of the German .advance.The Russians now hold the Germans on the entire front except \u2019in the neighborhood of Riga, where the enemy has again returned to The River Missa, from which he was lately thrown back to the River -.On the Vilua front the Russians have advanced on the right bank of the Tylia, but this move, while proving a successful reply to the German attempt to outflank Vilua from the south, is unlikely to be continued.More significant is the very considerable success in Galicia, where three thousand prisoners, with many guns, were taken between the Zlota Lipa and the Stripa.The locality of this success adds to its importance.General P.Glansor, with about live army corps, attempted to attack both flanks of the Russian army in Galicia, with the clear object offering from the Roumanian frontier.The Russian victory occurred just where the Germans would l.east have desired it.Its Mfect will be great, both as an encouragement to the Russians and as lessening the confidence of the already weary Germans.It must not, however, be supposèd that this will alter the general plans of the.Russian strategic retirement, the accomplishment of which it will make easier but not unnecessary.In an interview accorded me, General Milkhnevitch, head of the General Staff in Petrograd, said: \u201cThere is no doubt that the German army is being exhausted by the drawing out of its communications.According to the testimony of those at the front, all the Germans of the best age have been used up and the enemy\u2019s army consists now of youths and men well advanced in years.\u201cIf the Germans retain the upper hand, it is because of their technical superiority and because their army follows their artillery, while our army follows our army.\u2019\u2019 The Russian retirement was imperatively required by the general plan of the chief of command, but it should not for a moment shake the confidence of the public in final victory.The vital forces of Russia stand incomparably higher than those of Germany.All necessary measures now have been taken for the immeasurable development of Russian technical resources and the increase of her output of war munitions.As soon as the requirements of the army in this respect are satisfied the Russian advance and the German retreat will begin.\u201d LAST DAY OF BRUME FAIR Presentation o( an Address to Mr G.G.Foster, K.G.From Directors A Free Ticket For You To RECORD CROWD LOCAL RED Sherbrooke Fair Next Week AT AYER\u2019S CLIFF CROSS SOCIETY Free Distribution of Tickets at Sherbrooke Stores with Compliments of Sherbrooke Merchants ATTENDANCE YESTERDAY ABOUT UP TO RECORD OF 1913\u2014FINE WEATHER TO-DAY.Brome, Sept.2.\u2014(Special).\u2014 The weather was again ideal for the third and last day of the Brome County Fair.The receipts from the gates yesterday were within a few dollars of the record day of 1913.A half-past 1 o\u2019clock this afternoon Mr.G.G.Foster, K.C., who has done so much to encourage increased cultivation of the land throughout the district, was the recipient of an address from the president and directors as showing how they appreciate the efforts he has made to encourage the farmer.The address was presented by Mr.George F.Hall, the popular secretary of the society.The presentation took place every $3 purchase at their stores in tli6 judges\u2019 stand.The address is , during the week.Two tickets will go Next week will, be Sherbrooke Fair Week, bigger and better than ever.You want to go.Everybody wants to go.It is the big annual outing.You are entitled to a holiday even in these strenuous times.You have been wondering since yesterday how you were to obtain free tickets for yourself and family to the Fair.We will tell you.A large number of Sherbrooke mer- ! chants, realizing that this is a more! or less difficult year for many\u2014propose to distribute complimentary tickets among their Fair week customers.They are going to present a free admission ticket to the grounds with as follows \u201cGeo.G.Foster, Esq., K.O., \u201cKnowlton, Que.\u201cSir,\u2014On behalf of the president, directors and members of the Brome Agricultural Society, I have the pleasure of handing you herewith cards signed by several hundred of the members of this society, which indicate the result during the past year of the efforts you and we have made to increase the crops in Brome County.There are many reasons why in the past the grain and hoed crops in Brome County have not been as large as in many other counties, but the result accomplished this year as shown by the evidence we hand you, proves that a splendid and substantial result has been accomplished by the prizes you offered last fall to the farmers of this county, coupled with the desire on their part to carry out the spirit indicated in your letter offering the same.All of our farmers (for many reasons) wTere, of course, unable to compete in the competition, but the evidence I hand you, which our society has procured, shows that whereas in 1914 one hundred and seventy-five farmers in this country had (in hoed and crops) with a $6 purchase ;\t3 tickets with $9 ; four with a $12 purchase, and a person wrho trades to the extent of $15 will get five tickets for the Sherbrooke Fair.The merchants extend their invitation not only to city customers but they invite all visitors to the city to call at their stores and participate in this arrangement.Who is there throughout the Eastern Townships and elsewhere but must do a little early fall trading \u2014 coming to Sherbrooke next week they can combine business with pleasure, ami their visit to the Fair grounds will not cost them anything.The Sherbrooke merchants who are making this offer will publish their announcements in the Record from day to day, beginning to-morrow-, Friday, and continuing Saturday, Monday and Tuesday.All intending visitors to the Fair are invited to read these announcements carefully.They will be of great interest to them.Largest In the Seventy Years of the Society\u2019s Existence LIVE STOCK PARADE WAS GOOU \u2014PATRIOTIC ADDRESSES BY MONTREAL SPEAKER.Ayer\u2019s Oliff, Sept.2.\u2014(Special)\u2014 The weather was beautifully fine yesterday for the second day of the Stnnstead County F\u2019air.Many thousands of visitors passed through the Annual Meeting Held Yesterday When Reports of Year\u2019s Work Was submitted OFFICERS FOR THE KNST1INC* YEAR WERE APPOINTED-LIST OF ARTICLES SHIPPED.The first annual meeting of tha Sherbrooke Branch of the Red Gross Society was held yesterday afternoon in the Art Hall, all the officers, a ,\t(majority of the members and others ga , and at half-past one, when theiinteres^e(jj being present.The Pa- attractions commenced the grandj triotic Society was also represented, stand was completely filled.Never!The Charter of the Society was dlg-« during the whole seventy years of th\u201e\ton the platform, and the sig- Society\u2019s existence has there been!\"ificant' ^ aPpealin«^ ^ a\u201enh \u201e i \u201e\t\u201e flag was also conspicuous.Mr«.Jack a.ge attendance on one day.| Morkill, the President, was In tha Indications point to another large] chair, and called the meeting to or^ BERLIN CLIMBS DOWN TO ü.S.Assurances Given By Ambassador With Regard to Submarine Warfare WITH ARABIC INCIDENT OUT OF WAY STATE DEPARTMENT WILL TAKE UP NEUTRAL COMMERCE PROBLEM Washington, Sept.2 \u2014(Special) \u2014 With both oral and written assurances from the German government, grain transmitted through Count von Bern- one thousand eight hundred : storff, the German ambassador, to th e + ^ acres' they had in 1915 ;the department, regarding Germany's three thousand and thirty-one acres, ; submarinp nolicv officials of the or an increase of twelve hundred and\tP y\u2019 0lJ:iclala of tüe; twelve acres, an increase in the !

otherwise their flank there would be seriously threatened.WINNING RACE FOR TIME.In the opinion of military writers here, the Russians now stand a good chance of winning the race for time Within a few weeks the autumn rains will begin, and it is pointed out unless they can succeed in gaining a decisive result before that time, the Austro Germans can hardly hope to smash tha Russian armies- before, under cover of the 1c ng winter, they are re formed and re-equipped.At present the Austro-Gcrmans are straining every nerve to win this decision, but they have been greatly delayed by the Intensity of the Russian counter-attacks and the stubbornness w th which the Russian troops hold the Positions protecting ttmjr retreating comrades.RUSSIAN LOSSES ENORMOUS The Russian losses of course have been enormous.According to Berlin, tile Russians have lost 1,090,000 in prisoners since May 2, the date on which the drive commenced in Western Galicia, while during August alone the captures included over a quarter of a million men and 2,309 cannon.The Austro-German losses, too, have been heavy In killed and wounded, while the stra n on the troops has been terrifie.They still have, according to Petrograd estimâtes, about 2,099,099 men on ihe eastern front, 390,099 being in the (Continued on Rage 6) been exactly measured, but it is a fair estimate made by disinterested men, coupled with the reports of the farmers, and if this same proportion of increase had been made by a like number throughout all counties of the Townships, it is easy to calculate the manifest advantage that it would have been to our people.There were entries for your prizes by men who actually competed for the same m every township in the country (forty-nine competitors), to say nothing of the many who caught the inspiration and were unable to compete and their crops were judged fearlessly by a representative sent to us from the Agricultural Department at Ottawa.\u201cIn conclusion, and on behalf of the society, its members and friends, we thank you for your assistance and realize the debt that the people of Brome County are under to you for the efforts you made to increase the crops in this county, and we feel that, the result has been far greater than you or.we could possibly anticipate.\u201cPresident and Secretary Brome Agricultural Society.\u201d Mr.Foster replied.Addresses were also made by other speakers.LIVE STOCK EXHIBITS GOOD.Never in the history of the society has a larger or better class of live stock been shown.This is particu-| larly so with regard to cattle.Horses are numerous and well classed, j while sheep and swine are shown in ; greater numbers and good quality.-Dairy products are not above the I average, while the mechanical and | manufacturers\u2019 departments whole submarine problem.Germany\u2019s next communication, it was said authoritatively, will be a ] formal disavowal of the sinking of the Arabic, and reparation will be made for American lives lost in the disaster if the attack was made by a German submarine.With the.situation growing out of the Arabic incident out of the way, Germany\u2019s reply will be forthcoming.If that is satisfactory to the United States, it is believed that the Washington Government will then turn its' attention to the problem of neutral commerce.A note to Great Britain is already in course of preparation.MINT ATTEND SCBTSTOWN FAIR Ideal Weather Brought Out Large Attendance From Wide district QUESTION OF mmoN Government Will Submit Measure to the People of .at Election in November CAMPAIGN IS EXPECTED TO BE ONE OF THE MOST BITTER EVER FOUGHT IN THE ISLAND.St.John's, Nfld., Sept.2.\u2014(Special) \u2014The question of prohibition of the liquor traffic is the leading issue to-day In the politics of this colony.Advocates for and against temperance have completed plans for launching a campaign of speechmaking that gives promise of being one of the most1 bitter ever fought in Newfoundland.Meanwhile the Government authorities will arrange iur an election in November, when a vote will be taken on a prohibition bill referred to the people by the last legislature.As there would bo great d ifficulty in importing into a territory completely surrounded by water, it is believed that if prohibi- j tion should become a fact in New- ! foundland the world would see the most complete demonstration of the working of a prohibitory law ever known.The approval of forty percent.of the electorate is necessary before the prohibition act can be come a law.crowd today, and when the show closes tonight all concerned will be able to congratulate themselves on the result.PARADE AND RACES.The grand stock parade, one of the principal features of a county fair, never fails to interest young and old.The usual enthusiasm prevailed yesterday in this part of the< proceedings and the horses and cattle appeared to give universal satisfaction.Some fine specimens of heavy horses were especially admired, and some little amusement was Caused by a few calves of more than normal strength.There were four entries in each racing event and some close finishes werB IIT'\t* raC^uWaS Ton in three sociation held the 31st of August straight heats.Ihe following is theji914 it was decided to organize a ' branch of the Canadian Red, Cross J Society in Sherbrooke.Officers were -appointed and a charter applied for, U which was granted on the 9th of Sep' ritember, 1914.\u201ej Since then ten business meetings, jOiie special executive meeting and eighty-two working meetings have been bold.Week by week the work ^ increased until Sherbrooke became 2\tthe headquarters for forty surround- 3\ting towns and villages: namely- 4\t' der.The minutes of the meeting for orv ganlzation of the Red Cross Society were read by Miss Elva White and adopted.PRESIDENT\u2019S REPORT The President then presented her re-\u2018 port, which was full and at the same time concise, as follows:\u2014\t* Ladies' and Gentlemen:\u2014 In presenting to you the first jÇn-mial Report of the Sherbrookj branch of the Canadian Red Cross Society, I am aware that to most of you it will he a mere summary of work with which you are wed! acquainted, 1 shall therefore be as brief as possihle.At a meeting of the Patriotic As- summary THREE MINUTE CLASS.Rosemonth (W.A, Rediker) 1 Rhythmonia (Geo.Rediker).3 F.W., (Jack Williams) .2 Allen Bogash (L.Davidson).4 Time\u20142.39^, 39£,\t40.NAMED RACE.Jenny Lind (H.L.Call) .1 Jimmy T.(P.Langlois) .2 Lady Wilkes (L.Davidson)-.4 Col.Hunter (E.G.Davidson) 3 Time\u20142.40, 32, 33.Officials\u2014Starter, Dr.Ball : keeper, C.O.Hunt ;

in Dam BURE SIGN OF FALL WITH RETURN OF SUMMER GUESTS TO THEIR HOMES.Magog, September 2.\u2014(Special)\u2014 There have been a number of exciting experiences with motor boats caught in the current in the river j since the break of the dam.One ! gentleman not knowing of the accident discovered after It was too late that something was up.In making for the canal made by the C.P.R.track his launch was turned completely around.This gave him the idea that It would be better for him to make for the lake again, but the same occurred to him again with this difference that he was carried down stream, and his engine stopped by striking a rock.Men along the shore got them off, and now he has his boat laid up for the winter, in all piobab lity.On Sunday four! young men wishing to go out for a ! ride in the forenoon pushed out confident enough, but the engine failed to start immediately and as their, boat house was situated in the river they found themselves drifting rapidly down streami toward the rapids and dam below.They grasped at the bridge as they went under but were not strong enough to hold on and in a short space of time were stranded on a huge boulder, a hundred yards below the bridge.Spectators on the bridge floated a rope down the river to them but it was.discovered that before they could be hauled off they would be tipped 0ver first, consequently they had to leave the boat, and get ashore by wading.On Sunday evening they succeded in getting the boat off the rocks, and run under its own power to a safer location.At the present time the emergency dam will stop any acci-deots of this character, but a wise discretion will probably prevent many from motoring on the river only when it is absolutely necessary.SURE SIGN OF FALL.Camp Meeting, Fall Fairs, The opening 0f the schools, the return of the summer visitors to the city etc., are among the signs that indicate that the summer season is fast drawing to a close.FARMERS WILL TAKE TRIP.The Annual Farmers excursion of the Lady of the Lake will be held on Monday September sixth.This an nual event marks the close of the season as far as the Lady of the Lake is concerned.Her summer schedule this year was somewhat interfered with through an accident to the paddle wheels.CAMP MEETING OVER The annual series of meetings held at the Adventist\u2019s Camp grounds here closed on Sunday evening last.They were well attended, and the meeting\u2019s were fully up to the standard of those of former years.SUMMER GUESTS DEPARTING.Nearly every train now sees a few of the summer guests treking hack to their homes in the city.The opening of the schools is the chief factor in starting them homewards so early as camping on the lake shore is still congenial, to many as there should be considerable warm weather yet before the cold weather sets in permanently.AT AYER\u2019S CLIFF FAIR.This is the week for the annual Fair of the Stanstead County Agricultural Society at Ayer\u2019s Cliff.Wednesday was the day on which the Ladies of Magog helped to look after the dining hall, etc., at the Cliff.There is no doubt but that the ladies of the county will succeed in gathering a good round sum as a result of their labors in catering to the wants of the Public at the fair, take charge during the noon hour.The OomnVssioners, and also a large number of the citizens will be present to witness the opening exercises.Considerable interest is being taken in the school.The \"good results obtained at the recent examinations have acted as a sort of an Incentive to excel last years results during the corming year.It Is expected that there will be a record number of Academy pupils.EARLY VISIT FROM JACK FROBt \u201cJack Frost\u201d Pa d a visit to a number of places in this vicinity during the latter part Qf last week.This was a rather early call.He, however, practically missed Magog town.Fortunately he did not nip things very sewerly and the damage was slight.Those interested in gardens, etc., are hoping that they will receive no more visits for a month, as there are a number of forms of vegetables that require a couple of weeks more of warm weather before they have matured.HIGH SCHOOL OPENS.The Magog High School will commence again on Tuesday morning of next week.The Commissioners hav© been doing considerable work to the building chiefly to the plumbing, pointing, etc., Mr.E.Leney has been engaged to look after the School building and will be on hand to look after the fires, etc., and will also McDERMOTT SCHOOL OPENS The McDermott School was re-opened on Wednesday after a months holidays- The Teacher Miss Bessie Cor-dy having just returned from taking a summer course at Macdonald College.Mr.C.W.Hawley, manager of tha Canadian Bank of Commerce at Eastman has been in Magog a number of times recently, as his family have been camping at Wright\u2019s Beach.He states that his brother Mr.r E.Hawley has enlisted for overseas work and is now in training at Niagara on the Lake.He signed on in Toronto, which city is offering big inducements to men who enlist.Mr.E.Hawley was a resident of Magog for many years.¦ Y MOTOR BOATS TIED UP.A number of ruotor boat owners have been cut off from a use of the river owing to the break in the dam and the subsequent build ng of the emergency dam.The loso of the use of the motor boats for Ih: present season does not matter so much, but just what the situation will be next summer concerns them more.Unless these piers are finally removed, It will make it difficult navigating in this section.SCOUTS FOR SHERBROOKE FAIR The Magog Boy Scouts are planning to take a trip to the Sherbrook© Fair, where they will take part in a boy scout demonstration.They might take along their silver cup which they won in Montreal last winter, and which they now hold, to show that although they are a young organization, they have been working.NOTES.Dr.Geo.Robins and family who have been spending the summer at the r cottage at Drummond Point returned to Montreal on Monday forenoon of this week.Mr.and Mrs.W.Harrington of Waterville, and Mrs.H.J.Cordy and children of Gapelton are spending a few days at Mr.Cordy\u2019s cottage
