SMYRNA, Sept. 2s.- Edgar w.

Farm, near this town, had thrilling
experience last evening when out rid
ing with Mrs. Frazier and Mrs. Ridge
ly Jones.
The party was on its way from Mr.
Jones farm to Cedarbrook Mr.
Frazier was driving. At the begin
ming of the drive he was smoking a
pipe. When he tired of smoking
he placed the pipe in his right coat
pocket. It ignited several matches
Il smell rags burning" said Mrs
Jones.
AS Mr.. Frazier had on a new suit
of clothes, he did not take the remark
to himself, but held the reins and
chirruped to the horse, blissfully
ignorant of the fact that he was on
fire.
81 tell you, I smell rags burning
insisted Mrs. Jones.
"And so do l." exclaimed Mrs
Frazier.
Just then Mr.. Frazier yelled
"Whoa!" gave a whoop, leaped from
the carriage and began slappinl
wildly at his right flank as the fire
started TO envelop 1t.
"I'd give SIS for a wet ditch!" h'
shouted as he fought the condagra
tion.
Finally he succeeded in extingusn
| ing the fire. but by that time tn
right tail of his coat locked as
German seige guns had riddled
and the right side of mis- trouser
resembled, in miniature, Louvain af
ter the Teutons had worked thei
destructive will upon it. The los

ance.
Mr.. Frazier's friends now sugges
that he equip either himself or hi
carriage with automatic fire e1
tinguishers, or at least carry buckC
of water when he goes out driving.

BRITISH JAPANESE
RESUME KIAO- -CHAU FIGHT

BY The United Press.
TOXIC, Sept. est is officially ad
mitted that the fighting along the
outer lines of the Notifications of
Kiao-Chau continues with the COM
bined British-Japanese forces en-
deavoring to make a breach in the
outer line of defenses.
According to the meagre informa-
tiOn permitted to become public here,
the losses have been very small. This
is due to the fact that 80 far the en-
gagement has taken on only the char
acter of an artillery duel. The Jap
anese and British commanders will
refuse needlessly to sacrifice their
men, believing that the German gar
rison eventually will be starved out
now that it is impossible for them
to obtain supplies either by land or
sea.
