Even among sportsmen there are
probably many people who are not ac-
quainted with the manner In which
shot is made. The process Is carried
out at what is known as shot tower
This a tall tower OF metal or stone
with tank at the top filed with mott
en- lead. The bottom or this tank is
perforated with holes. and there Is a
slide underneath 1t. also perforated.
This slide is pulled from side to side.
and every time two holes come oppo-
site each other small quantity of
molten lead falls through As these
drops fall through the air they assume
a globular shape. and If tine tower is
of sufficient length they solidify before
reaching the bottom. Here they fall
into a tank Of cold water and are cool
ed When the shot has to be small the
slide is worked more quickly than

heights which overlook the river. He
had his guns placed and his men
ready when the British and French
troops reached the south bank of the
river. Clearly it was essential to the
allies that crossing be made if the
great pursuit was to be continued and
the hard won victory pressed home.
but the river was swollen, running
swiftly after the recent heavy rains.
bridges must be built under a wither-
ing fire, they must be maintained un-
damaged and must be crossed.
Artillery Duel ON Banks OF the Aisne
All the vantage points were held
by the men rendered desperate and
lighting for their lives. 1t was ter
riTble prospect but it did not daunt
our splendid forces.
"nhe attack began Sunday morn
ing with all the dash that character
lied the great struggle of the week
before. Our gums were brought up,
placed in position, and a terrible ar
tillery duel opened; for as long as
the German artillery remained I'M
si1enced there was little hope OF
crossing the river.
During this fight our engineers
worked laboriously, bringing up great
pontoons while the fire slowly de-
creased their numbers.
After some hours OF this supreme
effort the enemy's guns on the norsh
bank are silenced and the troops be-
gin crossing while the allies artillery
still sweeps the heights protecting
their passage.
BY sunset when the cold rain and
wind starts the heights are won, the
enemy thrown back. and our troops
across at three crossing places.
while the battle was proceeding
a most exciting battle of aeroplanes,
German and English, occurred high
i'm the air. 1t was great struggle,
the machines darting hither and
thither until finally the German,
wounded, fell to the ground"
Battle of Aisne is Greatest of War
Regarding the battle of the Aisne,
under date of September 10, the cor
respondent of the Chronicle says:
1.-THE amending, terrific struggle
has lasted four days and only now
may one say that victory is turning
in favor of the allies.
THE town of Scissors cannot yet
be entered, for it is still raked by
ARTILLERY and rifle fire, while roaring
columns of smoke marked several
points where homes are burning.
Men from the front tell me that the
combat has been a veritable slaugh-
ter and that the unceasing fire of the
past four days puts amy previous bat
tie anywhere completely in the
shade.
Several crossings were effected
Sunday but the German guns got the
range and compelled them to with
draw Last night, however, the all
lies brought up heavier guns and
these change the prospect.
'.I can clearly trace the abandon
ment during the last three hours of
a number of German positions by
the smoke of their guns moving fur
ther over the hills"

Lord Russell once gave a lecture on

The thing tba. impressed him most
strangely. during the early period OF
his confinement was being without his
pipe and watch. He was perpetually
feeling in his pocket TO see the time or

over the want Of smoking and after
six weeks obtained leave to wear his

him more than having no tobacco
