McAdoo Divides Duties of Enforcing
 Enemy Trading Act.

Washington.-Secre McAdoo an- nounced the delegation of powers as- signed to him by President Wilson un- der the trading with the enemy act, to various divisions of the treasury and the War Trade Board.
 The Federal Reserve Board will continue to regulate export of gold and silver and foreign exchange trans actions, except with enemy or ally of enemy countries or interests in which case the War Trade Board is to ad- minister the licenses.
 To the customs divisions is delegat- ed the authority to prohibit or license the transportation of any form of con- munication into or from the country except in the regular mails. Commu- nications intended for enemy or ally of enemy interests, directly or indi- rectly, however, are placed under the jurisdiction of the War Trade Board.
 Licensing of alien enemy insurance companies doing business within the United tSates is entrusted to the War Risk Insurance Bureau.

amazement as they ploughed their way forward.
 Only 380 Germans were holding the town and all except a few left in the cellars withdrew five minutes before the British entered With the civil ians who greeted the British were two German soldiers, one from Alsace and the other from Lorraine, who had de- serted and were waiting to give them selves up to the British, with whom they sympathized.
 During the three years of their cap tiv.ty the civilians were fed by the American relief committee. All other food was requisitioned by the Ger mans. who placed heavy penalties on those who concealed any. Many per sons served terms in Jail for alleged violation of the orders They were well fed, however, owing to American relief, and all appeared healthy.
 Hid in Cellar Three Years.
 The Germans stripped all the houses of the town of their furniture as soon as they entered. All men of military age were arrested and sent to Ger. many. Women were compelled to dc all manner of work. such as sweeping streets, washing clesthes of German officers and waiting on officers.
 The mayor declared his belief that Germany was actually starving. He said there seeraed to be no doubt ci. vilians in Germany were undergoing great hardships.
 Among the refugees was a man of military age who had hidden in a eel lar three years to escape the Germans and had been fed by his wife with an extra ration of food allowed her be- ca,es5e she had baby. This man would have been arrested and sent to as prison camp as soon as the Germans entered the town.s He did not want to leave his wife and baby and so hid in a secret place in the callar, thereby making himself liable to the death penalty if detected. German officers came to live in his house and daily he heard them tramping about above him. In accordance with the custom, this house and all others were searched frequently to see if any one was con- cealed, but the Germans never discov- cred his hiding place.
 When the British entered the town the wife brought out her husband, who had his first glimpe of the outside world since August, 1914.
 The morning official announcement follows:
 Southeast of Ypres we advanced our lines slightly during the night. Hostile raids attempted in the night south of Nueve Chapelle, northwest of. St. Quentin and northwest of Pon- turet were repulsed, leaving prisoners in our hands. s~----l
 There is no change on our front south west of Cambrai"

FRENCH CHECK GERMANS
Teutonic Effort To Retake Ground On
 Aisne Fails.

Paris.-Another German attempt to recapture ground taken by the Bremen in their recent attack on the Aisne front was checked by the French fire, the war office reports. The statement follows:
 Active artillery fighting continues in the sectors of Cerny and Juvin- court. In this region our fire checked an enemy attack against the positions on our left, which we captured on November 21.
 Our patrols in operations near the Ailette brought back prisoners and in- ficted losses on the enemy. Northwest of Rheims and in the Champagne raids on our small posts were without re- suit. On the right bank of the Mouse the artillery fighting continued in a spirited manner during the night. There is nothing to report from the remainder of the front"

PLAN A U-BOAT MEDAL
U. s. Men Who Fight Submarines Get
 Recognition.

Washington.-A special medal prob ably will be provided for award to men of the United States naval service who distinguish themselves in the warfare against submarines. Secretary Daniels has taken preliminary steps to this end.
 The action of the department is prompted by the fact that under the law no member of Americas armed forces may accept decorations from foreign governments in recognition of gallant conduct. Several instances where the British naval authorities desired to award American destroyer officers and men with the distinguish ed service order and medals of the British government were made public by Secretary Daniels.

She was well-knOwn but undoubt- edly jealous actress, and she was con- flding to her friend the details of her who had not been slow in answering back. She wound up: You can't imagine how impertinent she was! assure you 1t was as much as I could do to keep my temper. If hadn't been perfect lady I'd have slapped her face"
 There was an impressive pause. Then she added, q slapped her face all the same"
The Green Forest tribune., 1907-01-04

An hour later another body of Ger mans advanced on Noyelles, which was held by one company of British troops. Here some of the stiffest fighting on the battle took place at close quarters. Both sides rushed up re-enforcements and for two hours the battle ragged through the streets and among the buildings. It was a melee in which the bayonet played the principal part. The Germans fought well, but they were not good enough to withstand the British, and gradually they were forced back across the canal to the east.
 Among the prisoners taken by the, British were several officers who were caught in the regimental head quarters. The regimental commander was captured and it is reported his advent into the British lines was a humorous spectacle. He came tramp ing back clad in an elaborate ,ur coat, followed by two servants who carried more of his finery. He was swearing  at the turn of events. The sight of a company of British cavalrY threw him almost into frenzy and the lurid Ian guage which he directed at the British drew smile from even the hardened Tommy, who has a somewhat pictur- esque vocabulary of his own.

Fighting in Open.

Some of these pitiful objects are in British hands and are receiving med ical treatment. One prisoner was in the last stages of tuberculosis. and he had to be moved to prevent the dis ease from spreading to the others, who were in a state of cruel exhaus- tion and virtually helpless from their valiant attempts to fight under the lash of their unrelentipg officers.
 The great battle field has taken on the aspect of scenes in wars gone by It is no longer conflict of trenches and shell holes, but of men struggling bitterly with rifles and bayonets over a virgin battle ground, while the long neglected cavalry sweeps in pictur- esque charges against the enemy po- sitions over the wide territory in- volNed.

 At the last line the British and Ger mans are at grips on comparatively open ground, and some of the fiercest hand-to-hand fighting of the war has been going on. The enemy troops were unprepared for the attack, but they have been putting every ounce of their strength into an attempt to stem the rising tide.
 Troops have been pulled away from other points and rushed to the Cam brai sector by the desperate Germans and so hard pressed were they for men that two companies of cripples and convalescents were recruited has tily at one camp and thrown into the line in the region of Masnieres.
