FRENCH TELLS HOW BRITONS
HAVE FACED GIANT GERMAN GUNS
London.—The official press bureau I colossal expenditure of ammunition
Issued a report from Field Marshal Sir
John French's lu-udquarters on the
British operations in France. The
text follows:
"The enemy is still maintaining him-
self along the whole front and in order
to do so is throwing into the tight de-
tachments composed of units from the
different formations, the active army,
reserve, and landwehr, as is shown by
the uniforms of the prisoners recently
captured.
"Our progress, although slow on ac-
count of the strength of the defensive
position against which we are pressing.
has In certain directions been continu-
ous, but the present battle ma> well
last for some days more before a de-
cision is reached, since it now ap-
proximates nearly to siege warfare
"The Germans are making use of
searchlights. This fact, coupled with
their great strength in heavy artillery.
leads to the supposition that they are
employing material which may have
been collected for the siege of Paris
Confident of the Result.
"The nature of the general situation
after the operations of the eighteenth,
nineteenth and twentieth, cannot be
better summarized than as expressed
recently in a neighboring French com-
mander to liis corps 'Having repulsed
repeated and violent counter attacks
made by the enemy, we have a feeling
that we have been victorious.'
"So far as the Hritish nre concerned,
the course of events during these three
days can be described in a few words.
During Friday, eighteenth, artillery
fire was kept up intermittently by both
sides during daylight. At night the
Germans counter-attacked certain i>or
tions of our line, supporting the ad-
vance of their infantry as always by
a heavy bombardment. Hut the strokes
were not delivered with great vigor
and ceased about 2 a. m. During the
day's fighting an air-craft gun of the
Third ariuy corps succeeded in bring
lng down a German aeroplane.
"News was received also that a body
of French cavalry had demolished part
of the railway to the north, cutting, at
least temporarily, one line of communi-
cation which is of particular import
ance to the enemy.
German Attack Stopped.
"On Saturday, the nineteenth, the
bombardment was resumed by the Ger- i to encourage
mans at an early hour and continued them that th
Intermittently under reply from our
guns. Some of their infantry advanced
from cover, apparently with the inten-
tion of attacking, but on coining under
fire they retired Otherwise the day
was uneventful, except for the activity
of the artillery, which is a matter of
normal routine rather than an event.
"Another hostile aeroplane was
which has been wasted
"By this it is not implied that their
artillery fire is not good. It is more
than good—it is excellent. But the
British soldier is a difficult person to
impress or depress, even by immense
shells filled with a high explosive,
which detonate with terrific violence
and form craters large enough to act i
as graves for five horses.
Scoff at German Shells.
"The German howitzer shells are
from eight to nine inches in caliber,
and on Impact they send up columns
of greasy black smoke. On account
of this they are irreverently dubbed
coal boxes,' black Marias,' or Jack
Johnsons' by the soldiers.
"Men who take things in this spirit
are, it seems, likely to throw out the
calculations based on loss of morale
so carefully framed by the German
military philosophers.
"A considerable amount of informa-
tion has been gleaned from prisoners.
It has been gathered that our bom-
bardment on the fifteenth produced a
great impression. The opinion also is

extraordinary mixture of units. If the
composition of the other corps is sim-
ilar it may be assumed that the pree
ent efficiency of the enemy's forces is
in no way comparable with what it
was when the war commenced.
Germans Lose Many Officers.
"The losses in officers are noted as
having been especially severe. A bri-
gade is stated to be commanded by a
major; some companies of foot guards
by one-year volunteers, while after the
battle of Montmirail one regiment lost
fifty-five out of sixty officers.
"The prisoners recently captured ap-
preciate the fact that the march on
Paris lias failed, and that their forces
are retreating, but state that tlfe ob-
ject of this movement is explained
by the officers as being to withdraw
into closer touch with the supports
which have stayed too far in the rear.
"The officers are also endeavoring

men believe that they are beaten.
"Among the Items of news nre the
following: Recently a pilot and ob-
server of the Royal Flying corps were

plane to descend in the enemy's lines.
The pilot managed to pancake his ma-

aviators succeeded in dropping several the woods.
bombs over the German line, one in-
cendiary bomb falling with consider-
able effect on a transport park near
La Fere.
"A buried store of the enemy's
ammunitions of war also was found not
far from the Aisne, ten wagon loads
of live shells and two wagons of cable
being dug up. Traces were discovered
of large quantities of stores having
been burned—all tending to show that
as far back as the Aisne the German
retirement was hurried.
"There was a strong wind during
the day, accompanied by a driving
rain. This militated against the aerial
reconnaissance.
Several German Attacks Fall.
"On Sunday, the twentieth, nothing
of importance occurred until the after-
noon, when there was a break in the
clouds and an interval of feeble sun-
shine, which was hardly powerful
enough to warm the soaking troops.
The Germans took advantage of this
brief spell of flue weather to make
several attacks against different points
These were all repulsed with loss to
the enemy, but the casualties incurred
by us were by no means light
"In one section of our firing line the
occupants of the trenches were under
the impression that they heard a inili
tary band in the enemy's line just be-
fore the attack developed It is now-
known that the German infantry
"The enemy came up and seized and
smashed the machine, but did not
search for our men with much zeal.
The latter lay hid till dark and then
found their way to the Aisne*across
which they swam, reaching camp in
safety but barefooted.
"Numerous floating bridges have by
now been thrown across the Aisne and
some of the permanent bridges have
been repaired under fire. On the

tempting to swim across the river

off than we are, 1 suppose we ought to
be contented."
"That's all very nice, Mrs. Reynolds,
but the fresh air don't chop the kin-
dling wood or put quarters in the gas
meters. Those that prefer the country
can have it. For my part I would
rather be in my little flat with some-
one around. Here it's shut up the
house all winter to keep the warm air
in and fight all summer to keep the
mosquitoes out. Why, even the cats
sneak away from Staten Island when
it's cold."
"I know it. It is terrible lonely,
sometimes, and nothing but the same
old grind—dishes and cooking and
cooking and dishes—"
"Well, that's something to bring you
back to earth, anyway, and 1 guess I
had better be getting back home to fix
James' supper. Some people complain
because their husbands stay away too
much, but I will say for mine that he
hasn't misled a meal in ten years. And
I wouldn't mind if he did now and
then."
"Oh, goodness!" exclaimed Jane.
"What do you think I've done? I've
been so excited over the matinee that
I forgot about our dinner entirely and
Bob will be home any minute. There
isn't a thing in the house, I know. Not
even eggs. I can't imagine what to
say to him either. I don't like to tell
him that I've been to the theater."
"Gracious, you are a slave. Does he
object to that?"
"No, not in the way you mean, Mrs.
Collins, but there's the money for the
tickets. You see, I saved it out of the
household expenses and I don't want
him to know."
"Well, you saved it, didn't you? Any
time I can do that I spend it where
and when I please. I figure that's my
business and not James.' "
"But we haven't much money for
that sort of thing, and you see there's
this, too." added Jane, hurriedly re-

"The offensive against one or two
points was renewed at dusk, with no

fantry. In spite of the fact that they
have been drenched to the skin for
some days and their trenches have
been deep in mud water, and in spite
of the incessant night alarms and the
almost continuous bombardment to
which they have been subjected, they
have on every occasion been ready for

attempted to assault, and they have
beaten them back with great loss In

been a positive relief after long, trying

German Cannon Fire Fails.
"The object of the great proportion
of artillery the Germans employ is
to beat down the resistance of their
enemy by concentrated and prolonged
fire—to shatter their nerve with high
explosives before the Infantry attack
is launched. They seem to have re-
lied on doing this with us, but they
have not done so, though it has taken
them several costly experiments to
t.iscover this fact.
"From statements of prisoners it ap-
pears that they have been grea'ly dis-
appointed by the moral effect pro-
duced by their heavy guns, which, de-
spite the actual losses inflicted, has
lot been at all commensurate with the
peated the same trick on a larger
scale against the French, as is shown
by the copy of an order issued by the
French officials. It is therein referred
to as a ruse, but if that term can be
accepted it is a distinctly Illegal ruse.
Charges Tricks to Germans.
"'During a recent night attack,'the
order reads, the Germans drove a col
umn of French prisoners In front of
them. This action is to be brought to
the notice of all our troops, (1) in
order to put them on their guard
against such a dastardly ruse, (2) in
order that every soldier may know
how the Germane treat their prison-
ers. Our troops must not forget that j
if they allow themselves to be taken !
prisoners the Germans will not fail |
to expose them to French bullets ' "
"Further evidence has now been col j
lected of the misuse of the white flag |
and other signs of surrender.
"During recent fighting, also, Ger i
man ambulance wagons advanced in
order to collect the wounded An or
der to cease fire was consequently giv !
en to our guns, which were firing on
this particular section of ground. The
German battery commanders at once
took advantage of the lull In the a<
tion to climb up their observation lad
ders and on to a haystack to locate
our guns, which soon afterwards
came under a far more accurate flre
than any to which they had been sub
jected up to that time."
"This little play doesn't need a re-
hearsal. Just get Into your kimono,
dear."
"But it's such a terrible flb, and I Just
hate to see Bob go hungry. I love him,
Mrs. Collins. I do, really, and I Just
can't bear to deceive him this way."
"That's Just it. Don't let him be dis-
appointed In you because there aren't
a couple of scrambled eggs In the
house. I know men and when they're
hungry, they're—well, not sentimental.
But if he really thinks you are 111 he'll
be sorry for you."
"I'll try It then, but I know that I
will never go through with it. I'll
laugh right in his face."
"Then don't blame me If there's a
scene. F've shown you the way and it
has stood the test. Hurry up and get
into the costume. I'll do the explain-
ing."
Jane went Into her room. There
was a ring at the door.
"There he is now," exclaimed her
sophisticated neighbor. "1 told you,
you were wasting your time."
"No, that isn't Bob, Mrs. Collins. He
has a key. Would you mind seeing
who It is?"
"It's only the postman," she called.
You're safe for a while."
"Is it something for me?"
"I didn't look. No, It's for your hus-
band and from the butcher, too. I think
there ought to be a law forbidding the
sending of bills through the mails.
They're such a disappointment."
Jane emerged clad in her kimono.
"Goodness!" exclaimed Mrs. Collins,
"My dear Mrs. Reynolds, that won't
do at all."
"What's the matter?"
"Your color. You'd never make him
think you're an invalid with that com-
plexion. Put some powder on."
"All right, but this is silly, my dear.
I feel about as ill as I look."
"Never mind. S-h! Somebody's
opening the front door with a key.
Turn out the light and lie down on
the bed. I'll meet him at the door."
Whistling an airy tune, Mr. Rey-
nolds entered and was confronted by
his buxom neighbor.
"Sh-h," warned Mrs. Collins. "Your
wife's ill. Don't wake her."
"111? Why, what has happened?" he
asked anxiously.
"Nothing's happened. Nothing seri-
ous. It's just a headache. I came over
to see what I could do for her."
"She's In her room?"
"Yes, lying down."
'He pushed past her to his wife's
door.

A Confeulon.
"Rob," called Jane, "1 think I'll get
over Ihe dinner. You'll pardon me.
Mrs. Collins, but I guess I'll have to
run out."
"I'd like to help you out, dear."
"Oh, could you?"
"I'm afraid not. It's Wednesday—
•tew night with us, and James will be
eating the last of Sunday's roast."
"I didn't mean to bother you, Mrs.
CollinB, but It's the flrBt time in my
life that this has happened and I feel
that I just can't face Hob, that's all."
"Why face him? Have him face
you "
"It's the same thing "
"No, my dear, It Isn't the Bame thing.
When you have been married as long
as 1 have you will tlnd that the only
way to get around your husband Is to
have him sorry for you. Don't ever
let him get a chance for you to be sor-
ry for him. It took me quite a while
to get on to that and I'm giving you
the benefit of my experience."
"How do you mean?"
"Honor bright, haven't you ever
played possum?"
"Why, no "
"Then that makes It all the easier.
You know—anything from a Bick
friend to a case of cholera Why, even
a headache would answer in your case
If this Is the first time."
"Hut I don't believe I could do that."
"Certainly you could. Now, If you're
down with a Blck headache you can't
be expected to be taking care of house-
hold affairs, can you? What chance
has a hot dinner against a case of hys-
terica?"
"But I wouldn't know how,' Jaoe
"It's From the Butcher!"
Mrs. Reynolds. I'll run over in the
morning If there's anything I can do
before then, let me know."
"I will. Thank you awfully much,
Mrs. Collins."
Reynolds hurried out of the bed-
room "Let me see you to the door,
Mrs. Collins. I thank you, too. 1 am
sure I'll pull Mrs. Reynolds around
all right."
He did not repeat his wife's Invita-
tion for the morning call. Somehow
Mrs. Collins did not entirely appeal to
htm. He knew that she had been
neighborly and a friend to his wife, but
he was Inclined at times to doubt the
value of the friendship. Neighbors
were none too plentiful In their colony
and, BUCh us they were, the pressing
duties of the home kept most of them
pretty closely confined. He knew that
his wife was In need of company of
some kind so be tried to keep his Im-
pressions of her quondam friend to

"Oh, you musn't, dear. Stay right
where you are. I)o you feel as If you
could eut something? I'll bring it to
you."
"Hut If I tell you something are you
going to be cross?"
"Cross with you, honey? That's im-
possible."
"But if I've done something awfully
terrible, do you think you could forgive
me?"
"I don't belle.ve you could do any-
thing I couldn't forgive."
"Supposing 1 I.ad told you a fright-
ful, black, Inexcusable fib?"
"Why, Jane, what's on your mind?
Fess up. I guess I can stand It all
right."
"I haven't got a Blck headache at
all."
"That's fine. Whit were you do-
ing, joking?"
"No, It wasn't a joke at all. It was
just a plain lie. I went to the matinee
with Mrs. Collins and forgot all about
the dinner. 1 was afraid you might be
angry. You'll forgive me, won't you.
Bob?"
He stooped and kissed her. "Of
course I will, dear. You know that I
think more of you than a dinner any
time. Was it Mrs. Cfcllins who sug-
gested the headache?"
^Now, don't ask questions, honey;
I've confessed and you said you
wouldn't be cross. But I'm awfully
sorry about dinner."
"That's all right, Jane, only—"
"Only what?"
"There's Dick, you know. It's
Wednesday and he hasn't missed tak-
ing pot luck with us on his night off
since we've been here. He's the only
other member of our family."
"I know it, but 1 forgot all about
him, too."
"Well, don't mind. Get yourself
fixed up and I'll make It all right with
Dick."
A welcome shout outside announced
the arrival of the guest.
Beacon Dick and Deacon Dick, Rey-
nolds called him, for he was always
preaching his wild theories and yet
was cheerful about them. His very
presence seemed to bring a ray of sun-
shine in the Reynolds home. If all
socialists could make their listeners
smile as often as Dick did the host of
converts would swell materially
"What, ho!" called the visitor as he
presented himself at the window.
"Lower the portcullis while I enter
with a pickle and a bun!"
"What kind of a bun," laughed his
friend, raising the sash.
"A Wednesday bun; a regular day
off bun. Gangway for the foe of the
'system.'"
"Go around to the door, you loon.
What's the matter with you?"
Bob stepped to the door and threw It
open. "Come In, come in, and wel-
come."
"Ah, landlord, what cheer have you
tonight? You see I do not come empty-
handed, Herr Host," and Dick dis-
played a huge parcel.
"I do Bee, Herr Most. What's with-
in?"
"Food and drink; cheer for you and
the missus, and three cheers for me."
Reynolds reached for the package.
"Wait," said Dick. "I desire the
housewife to be In on this that she
may pay due tribute to tw>r guest.
This Is no meager token of my regard.
It Is the Bum total of a dollar's raid on
a delicatessen shop."
"What's the Idea? Don't you think
we have anything to eat here?"
"Certainly, but these are delicacies
dear to every woman's heart—and
tongue. Here 1b some Wednesday

will." and he held up a Jar of It "Here

"She's lying down. Had a headache,

"It would If I gave It the chance, but
I haven't bought one. Jane," he
called out. "not sick, are you?"
"No, Dick; I'll be with you right
away. You can help Bob set the
table."
Reynolds stepped to his wife's door
"Jane, dear, what have we got for sup-
per?"
"Now, hush," she answered; "you
Just tell him yourself. You said you
would."
"All right." He returned to Dick.
"Y'oung man, for a child of your yearB

pointed to his feast. "Won't It suf-

"Brand? Who Is he?"
"Oh. you know him. John Brand.
He's the big man in the Hudson Ce-
ment company. Said he knew you.
Used to go to the Bame school."
"Oh, certainly. I should say I do
know him. That was several years
ago, though. I didn't recollect the

up?"
"Just the usual way. When you In-

sent me against him, but he talked
about everything from the time ha

Cornell and I knew It was yours, so I
thoughtlessly asked him If he knew

"You bet he did."
"Yes, and I'm sorry for it."
"Why, didn't you like him?"
"Oh, I suppose he's no worse than
the others. It's just the breed, that's
all. Get the knife and carve tho
tongue. If I get started talking about
Brand and his kind I'll lose my appe-
tite."
"Well, Dick, I'll own up. I was lead-
ing you on when I told you 1 didn't re-
member him. I wanted to see what
you knew. I saw Brand yesterday,
though that was the first time sinca
we left college. Strange we should!

"What for?"
"Why, because he wants to, I sup-
pose. Didn't he tell you we wero

"I know, but Brand Isn't the kind
