FORMED A JUNCTION,
Possible Now to Extend Line Nearly

ment Against Germans.

Paris, Oct. with the western
end Of the titanic battle line of the
Aisne sweeping into Belgium, the al
lies have accomplished tactical
stroke, which, it is unofficially sta
ted here today, is of tremendous I'M
iport-the virtual junction OF the
French troops, the Belgian forces,
with which they have operated r.
regularly, ando the English British
base at Ostend.
The extension Of the French battle
line nearly to the Belgian border mas
been made possible, the war office
:.dnlits, by the tremendous re-entorce-
.oents sent to General D'Amade,
whose army, occupying the extreme
left of the French position, has been
swelled by the addition of nearly
three full army corps.
That the folding movement on both
ends of the line continues, is the gist
of the war office announcement to-
6ay. Despite the numerous reports
being disseminated that the armies
of Won Kluck and Won Boehn are in
extreme jeopardy, Bordeaux merely
announced today:
I'VE continue to progress on th>

TRAGIC EPISODES OF WAR
French Lad Smiles Proudly as he
Faces Gun Muzzles.

| London, Oct. German tales of
tragic episodes of the war were is
sued by the official press bureau We'd
nnsday- The stories were taken from
book called "Kriegs Chronik" seiz-
ed from aliens entering English ports
/ The volume consists, according to the
bureau, partly of highly untrust-
worthy chronicles of the war, and
partly Of soldiers letters from the
front"
As showing the methods of thought
of the enemy these last have con-
siderable value" continues the bu-
reau. 1t is not the truth or falsity Of
the tales that matters, but the ap-
plause and self congratulation of the
writer's on deeds of gross treachery
and cruelty claimed to have been
done by themselves or comrades"
"'The narrative of an artillery off,
Ger on the determination of Bel
gian village" as given ont by the bu-
reau follows:
"The countryside was full of our
troops. Neverless the stupid peas
! ants must need shoot at our men, as
they march by from lurking places.
Day before yesterday the Prussian
! troops surrounded village, put the
women, children and old people aside
and shot all the men. The village was
then burned to the ground"
! The story of the shooting of spy
scout is given as follows:
"a traitor has just been shot. He
was little French lad belonging to
one of the gymnastic societies which
wear the tri-colored ribbons a poor
young fellow who in his infatua-
ton, wanted to be hero.
GAS the German column was pas

information. Fifty yards further
There was fire from the cover of the
wood. The prisoner was asked in
French if he had known that the
enemy was in the forest he did not
deny it.
"He went with firm step to a
telegraph pole and stood against il
with green vineyard at his back
and received the volley of a firing
party with a proud smile on his sace
infatuated wretch. 1t was pity tc
see such wasted courage"
