PAR s, Oct. IA statement was

lage of Fleur Baix.
The situation in the Ypres district
Is unchanged, the lines remaining

Headquarters say the fighting is des-

battle area. The Germans are at
tempting to break the allied lines
some fifteen miles from the coast but
are unable to gain ground.
1t is widely reported the enemy was
repulsed near Lille. 1t is admitted the
Germans hold Ostend and it is re-

he said:
"You will be glad to know that

is IDOL OF HIS SUBJECTS

LONDON, Oct. 3.-(By Mail to
New York.)-The Germans have
some very odd ideas as to the prog
ress theitr armies are making in the
war, according to Birmingham wom-
an, who has arrived here from Ham,
burg, where she was detained by the
authorities for some time.
The popular impression prevails at
Hamburg, she said, that all OF the
people in England are on the verge
of starvation. She said the report
had been spread that England's fleet
is hiding and that big coal strike
is tying up the country and that the
general state boardered on revolu-
ton.
The retreat of the German army
from Paris was explained away, she
said, by saying that 1t was a strategi-
cal move to get reinforcements and
that Paris would be occupied soon.
Two weeks later the Germans would
be in London, people in Hamburg be.

CRAZED MAN SHOOTS

MURDER THOUSANDS OF
YEARS AGO A MYSTERY
United Press.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Oct. IT,
Scientists are trying today to pene-
trate the oldest murder mystery of
the Pacific coast. The crime, accord
ing to the investigators, was commit
ted thousands of years ago. Natural
ly, the names of the principals are
not known. The only evidence is the
skeleton of woman which was found
in the famous La Brae asphaltum
pits near Los Angeles, where paleon-
tologists have unearthed the bones
of prehistoric horses, sabre toothed
tigers and other beasts.
Experts opinion agree that the po-
sition of the body indicated the wom-
an had been thrown head first into
the. pit. A more complete hypothesis
included blow on the head, possibly
from the club of cave man. Learn
ed men from dozen universities are
interesting themselves in the mystery

PROFESSOR REPORTED DEAD
is ALIVE AND WELL TO-DAY

SWANSEA, Eng, Oct. 1-(By Mail
to New York.)-M. Thoreau, pro-
fessor at Louvain university, who, it
was reported was shot by the Ger
man troops in view of his wife, is
today alive and well, although he has
passed through some narrowing ex-
periences, according to a letter re-
ceived here by cousin.
Thoreau wrote that he had been sim
gled out by the Germans because he
had openly expressed sympathy with
the French. He said that child was
born to his wife on the day the Ger
mans entered the town and that he
and his brother carried her and the
baby into the cellar of the house on
a mattress. They started to go back
upstairs for some food but before
they could do so the Germans had en-
tered the house.
Thoreau, his brother and his wife
and the baby remained in the cellar
for six days. Al they had to eat was
some rice which they soaked in a cis-
tern in the cellar. The Germans
burned the house but the cellar was
of stone and they we're not harmed
Az water pipe burst, however, and
covered the cellar floor with foot
of water. When Thoresu and his fam.
