S0.-J. S. White, a young farmer and
lumberman of Nicanor, was killed
Saturday while working in the lum-
her woods alone. He went into the

When his negro helper arrived In the

1t is supposed that he hitched the
wagon to a log, started the team to
pulling, and got caught under the log
and could not stop his mules,

Antwerp, Oct 4.-From outside OF
L.erre there was witnessed on Friday
d most interesting aerial engagement.
II engagement is the proper word for
flight under heavy shell fire. a little
after o'clock a British naval biplane
arose out of Antwerp and headed for
the German lines between Willebroeck
and HeyndOnek. These machines ny
with almost incredible swlftness, and
this one passed fast motor car going
IN the same direction as easily as
swallow passes a sparrow.
As soon as the British aeropane got
over the German lines it came under
the fire of the German guns specially
designed to attack aviators. Two OF
these guns engaged the aviator. They
fred FIRST ranging shells, which, or
bursting. left a thick ball OF black
smoke These shells, apparently fired
with difference in elevation of 500
feet, were designed 20 ascertain the
elevation Of the aeroplane, but the
aeroplane seemed to shape its course
50 AS TO avoid passing near these
smoke balls, which were, in any case,
at a greater height than itself.
The German guns then began with
shrapnel fire, as if satisfied with the
information given by the ranging
shells. Twelve shells we're fred, all
at greater heigst than the aeroplanc,
a. if the design were TO scatter the
balls on il from above. Changing its
course occasionally the aeroplane few
about. completed its work and winged
its way back TO the Belgian lines. Its
passage in safety under the bursting
shrapnel was one of the most exciting
warfare incidents imaginable.

In the "Goneic Czenstochowski" and
the "lskra," Of Sosnowltz, appear
startling series OF hes regarding the
progress of military operations. 1t is
stated that train full of Russian
soldiers fell into the River Nistula;
that Kaiser Wilhelm imposed upon
France n war contribution of forty mil
lizards; that bulgaria has been an
neved to Germany, and that Rumania
has sent her troops TO Kief to fight
against Russia
If these papers are TO be believed the
Germans have daily gained glorious
colossal victories and have captured an
entire Russia ncorps. while there is not
a single Russian soldier in East Galcia
and the last four hundred Russians
who evacuated it we're drowned in the
river.
In the last edition of The Iskra," the
announcement is made in large bold
type that the Austrians have captured

That Pension Be Held Up

Washington, Oct A. Among the Ca
apdian troops who will serve in the
allied armies IN Europe will be Thomas
Brown. United States army pensioner
now resident in Canada. Brown has
written TO the officials Of the Pension
Office in Washington that since he had
become resident Of Canada he felt
that he should enlist with his neigh.
bors for service abroad He requested
the Pen-on Office officials 20 make pro-
vision for holding up his pension
money during his absence. lie IS a
veteran Of the Spanish War.
Pension officials said they knew OF
no reason why Brown could not serve
in the European war as in any gainful
occupation in time of peace. He could
not. however, serve in the United states
army, because the disability for which
his pension was granted would prevent
his acceptance as a soldier.
It is regarded as probable that there
are numerous other United States army
pensioners who, like Brown, have en-
tered foreign armies. In Canada there
