When the French Occupied the Pla- teau West of Nasapeel, Gen. Foch Secured Excellent Positions for Observing the *angles' Move- ments and Bigger Successes May Be Looked for In the Very Near Future. PARIS, Aug. 20. - The Preach troops north of the Oise river have reached the western outskirts of Las- slgny, according to the official com- munication issued Monday night. They also bare made their way out of the Thlescourt Wood and further south have captured the village ed Plmpres, on the Noyon-Compiegne road. Northwest of Soiseoaa the vil- lage of Morsaln has been captured and 2,200 Germans have been made prisoner In this region. From the position■ captured by the French on Sunday night, north of the Aisne river, the Allies now threaten the German batteries of big guns at Chavlgny and Juvtgny, north of Soissons. Titre guns have been able to command the city of Soissons and keep the whole region near that place under Ire. It 1s possible that the enemy will be forced to abandon these positions, thus freeing Solesons from heavy bombardment. Another great advantage resulting from the French success is the occu- pation of the edge of Aurignleourt ravine and the plateau west of Namp- eel. At these points the Allies have excellent positions for observation over the rear of the enemy's lines. French troops In addition to ad- vancing In the sector west of Role also made progress in the vicinity of Laselgny. The French are approacn- Ing Fresnieree, to the northwest of Laaslgny, and the town of Plesaier- de-Rove, to the south of Lasetgny, is seriously menaced. The army of Gen. Mang(n also is making progress against the Germans northwest of Solssoos, and is menar- Ing the high roads between Noyon and Chaulnes and also the railroad line in that sector. The French made prisoner more than 400 Germans to the west of Roye in spite of a violent reaction of eGrman artillery, machine guns and a deluge of mustard gas shells. During the fighting between the Oise and the Aisne the principal trouble encountered by the French was from the resistance from the German machine gunners and avia- tors. who have shown far more spirit and determination than any other branch of the German service. All along the whole front of Sun- day night's attack the French reach- ed their objectives In the short time allotted to the advance. The gains made by the French In the past 24 hours are regarded here as very Important from the view - 'mint of futurent of tions. The ?tenth won vertical:4F vertical:high ground and are In a position to give the Germans the greatest anxiety both east and west of Soissons. The French now hold ridges over- looking the Oise Valley 00 both north and south, and large bodies of Ger- man troops stationed along the little river are In a position where they are continually menaced from both the north and the south by a move- ment which would pinch them severely. In connection with operations on this front It is worthy of mention that Monday's German official state- ment. In which it was said that Gen. von Boehm's group of armies had beaten off attacks with tanks In front of Roye, was a pure romance, as there was no such attack. The rest of the (diktat statement from Berlin, referring to other attacks breaking down under German fire, was equally false. Every assault made upon the German lines in this section has been successful, and the reeistance offered by the enemy baa been prin- cipally from Isolated posts. Jest north and mouth of the Scarpe river there has been consider- able activity during recent boon, and there are Indications here that the enemy Intends withdrawing. British patrols operating south or the river have made considerable progress, but those north of the stream did not `et far before they met strong opposition. The capture of the ridge in the neighborhood of Morris. In the Lys sector, Is distinctly menacing to the enemy. While the whole operation is comparatively small, it 1s most important. as it has Increased the general pressure 1a the Germans at a point where it was probably not expected. Moreover, Remmel is just to the northeast, and 1t was in this locality that the enemy, accordtng t0 statements from prisoners recent- ly taken. Intended to carry out offen- sive operations. These plans, however, existed be- fore the Franco -British offensive In the Somme region, and It the Allied attack there postponed their execu- tion the operations at Outtersteen Ridge durlpg the past 24 hours have further related In offsetting any operations Intended by the enemy. Jews Under German Ban. PARIS, Aug. 20.-- An order just Wooed by the Prussian Home Office forbids Polish and Lithuanian Jews from entering Germany territory. Jewish nationalities are Infuriated by this "declaration of war by Ger- many on the Jewlah community." Germany accuses the Poles of being anti-Semites. while on the other hand, eke forbids the entry of Jews Into Germany, where the proportion of the nee doesn't exceed two per cent., while In Poland It is said to be 11 per cent.

CAREY STOPPED GAP. Laplanders Are Quaint People LAPLAD. that picturesque country of the nursery book, has come Into prominence re - Gently through the disturb- ances and changes in Finland and the ambitions of Finn and German ' alike to secure certain northern ports or harbors affording steer to the Arctic Ocean. But the Lapland- ers themselves do not possess a country whIeb may be said to be a polities' entity. Lapland is Lapland because 1t is Inhabited by the Lapps. The region of the browsing reindeer, the aerial 'steeds of Pattie' Christ- mas, ream to extend Indefinitely, among the ■orthern latitudes, into Sweden, Finland, Rustle, and Nor- Ome Heroic Episode la Gnat Marek Drive. The more we hear about Brigadkew General Sandnume Carey and the seratcb force which be pkked up frets aowbere to step the German Met, tbe more certain It appears that this is one of those occurrences wbien ' happen once or twice In each great war and keep poets and painters sad orators busy for a good many years afterward. There was notbtag be- tween the Germans and Amiens ex- cept Carey, at that point, and he bad to Improvise something more. By telephone, by messenger, by Rag sig- nals, be got hold of everybody , around -labor battalion, "sturdy, middle-aged men," electrielan■ and signallers, members of "an infantry training school near by," machine gunners hurriedly armed witb riles, engineers, and "fifty cavalry men to do a little scouting." With this force Carey stopped the gap In the Br'ltisb line for nearly six days. He impro- vised a staff, as he went on, "officers learning tbe ground by baying to de- , lead It and emery man from enlisted men to brigadier jumping at each job as It came along." Early In the fight there were refer- ences In the British reports to "Amer- icans eghtlag shoulders to shoulder with the. Preach and British." No American force was identified .a 10 the fight, and not until several days after did Pershlpg begin to send re- inforcements to the allies. The Amer- icans referred to so mysteriously were part of that strangely mixed force that Carey drummed up from the void. They were engineers, who at Carey's call picked up rifles and merged themselves In his motley expo without orders from anybody.1 It was the same thlag that happened at Cambria. They were not many, but history will never tell the story of the battle of Picardy without tell- ies the story of the battle of the place where Carey fought. It is per- haps only luck, but at Cambria and on the Luce the engineers have won from the marines the right to tbe motto, "First to fight." The middle-aged man, wl4o has been feeling a little out of sorts since this war began, elbowed as he has been into a corner, hat his innings on the Luce, if he does agaln. Those labor battalions, past the fight- ing age In theory, were among the , men who stopped the gap on the Luce and saved the British army, who kept Hindenburg out of Amiens and per- haps out of Paris; "strong as oxen and mighty bruisers at close quar- ters," records the correspondent. It le a little ironical; not good enough for ordinary fighting, on them was unexpectedly lald the burden of ex- traordinary fighting. Net good enough for a skirmish, they were good enough to hold the bridge lite Horatlue; they were good enough for Thermopylae. The middle-aged man everywhere may throw out his chest a Tittle; Mars has taken a moment to vindicate kits. There Is something old-fashioned about )bat picture of Carey himself, "careless of danger," riding along the hastily made lines "giving an order here and shouting a word of encouragement there to his weary and hard-pressed men." 1 We have read so much about gen- erals sitting at a telephone five miles off. Carey not only stopped the gap on the road to Amiens, bot, with his middle-aged laborers turned volun- teers, bis gunners armed with riSee, and hie own cheery gallops down the lines, he for a moment made this giaringly unnatural war seem nor- mal again. 0 WILL WIN THIS BATTLE ?'r Tear kidneys are the filters of the body.

The Lapps tbemselves comprise three main groups, the fishing and mountain Lapps of Sweden, and the sea, river, and mountain Lapps of Norway. Some are nomadic, some are domestic. Some bunt and ash; ethers are settled argrlculturists. They are all supposed to have sprung from some outlying branch of the Finnish family, and to be related re- motely to the Hungarians. They ap- pear to have settled In the north in prehistoric times, and to be descend- ed from the cave men. As the clime - the temperatures rose and tbe glaciers retreated, however, the Lapps drove their reindeer herds farther north to the Arctic Circle, and found there those frigid conditions and raging storms for which they appear to have a particular tante. The Lappa, who are the shortest people in Europe, do not number more than 30,000 all told, and more than two-thirds or them live in Non way. The name Lapp was given to them by the Swedes to designate "nomads," but they call themselves Sameb, or Samelats. Towns or vil- lages are unknown among the Lapps proper. and their whole social sys- tem seems to hinge 00 the reindeer. To the nomad type,, the animal indispensable to Eapp well-beingIs as is the dog to the Eskimo, or the camel to the Bedouin of tbe wilder- ness. The Lapps devote their lives to the care of the reindeer herds, which give them food, raiment, bed- ding, and most of their household utensils, aad also provide them with means of rapid locomotion. The Lapp is a cheerful peg on, fond of family gatherings and' of merrymaking. A' contented, simple sort of being, he has never troubled himself mueb about such perplealtlee as constitu- tions and political parties. He is all but unconscious of nationality. Equality be understands only in so much that men and women in the community are equal. Each sex has equal civil and moral rights, and equaljJ .ev - a rsEalar daily round. & erttbnfnal affairs are matters for regulation un- der the laws of the cd0ntry in which be happens to live, while marriages and the distribution of property are settled by beads of families or by the "big man" of the community. Far back In the days of their tribal wanderings, the Lapps became nature worshipers, but the Christian mis- sionaries who worked among them In the eighteenth century Induced them to exchange their sun and moon worship and their "good and bad spirits" for Christianity. These mis- sionaries reduced the Lapp language to writing, but there exists a very limited amount of Lapp literature, comprising some school and religious bootie, some popular tales, snags, and folklore taken down from the lips of the people. Lapp education is limit- ed, but it has stalked to wort con- siderable changes In the people's Aabita. To -day the sedentary Lapp far outnumbers the nomadic type. The distinctive race is thus tbreat- ened, and a sedentary Lapp may be said to be already half Norseman. The Lapp Is slowly adopting the cus- toms of his Norwegian neighbor, al- though he bas resisted all attempts of Norwegians and Swedes to force tbelr languages upon blm. Tbere 1s, however, scarcely a doubt that, in time, be will be absorbed by the Scandinavian rues. He is beginning to use chain instead of squatting or lying down, and even to improve his gait, which has usually borne an odd resemblance to a waddle rather than to a walk. At heart, however, the Lapps are perhaps still much as the poet of "The Seasons" described them: They love their mountains and enjoy their storms; No false desire/, no pride -created wants Disturb the peaceful current of tbelr time. Their reindeer form their rtchee. These their lents. Their robes, their beds, and all their homely wealth. -Cbrlstlan Science Monitor. ' Gsrmaap and the Alsatians. On German prisoners captured In the present Allied offensive were found papers showing the difficulties that the German eonmaaders are baying In controlling soldiers from Alsace and Lorraine. A memoran- dum gave details of a mutiny of Alsatians In wblcb 10,000 soldiers participated. An order from the Crown Prince's headquarters cem- meads that men from these two pro- vinces be seat to the rear for field work and that on aceoont of the many desertions they shall under no elreumsunces be used In the frost lines.

TORONTO. Aug. 20. - With re- eeipte of 3856 cattle on the Union Stock Yards Exchange yesterday, there was a good demand for all heavy steers with weights and qual- ity. Choke butcher heifers were steady, but all classes of butcher cows were lower, selling off from 25o' 10 50c per cwt- Canners sold lower by 25c per cwt., ranging from 15.50 to 16.25. There was a fair enquiry for breedy stockers and feeders, and good milch cows and springers sell - Ing at satisfactory prices. The pros- pects for the balance of the week are good for steers with weight, fat and quality. The run of hogs was 1045 and the price held steady at 2014 c fed and watered, 20 %c weighed off cars, and 19 tee f.o.b. The packers bave offi- cially intimated that the price will be to -day cot 75c per cwt., making the rate 19 tee fed and watered, and this price seems likely to obtain for the balance of the week.
