Friday. Oct. 16, 1900 a. m.-lnfantry
and cavalry. after a period of COM
parative inactivity, have been doing
more fighting during the last few
days than for several weeks.
Two thousand French cuirassiers
have distinguished themselves by a
daring feat in swimming the river
Lys. where it flows deep and swift.
They completely outwitted the Germ
ans, who were awaiting them on the
other side with machine guns and
heavy artillery
The French horsemen made a long
detour during the night. One man
swan the river with a rope; then
dragged over cable which he at
tached to tree. The others. holding
to the rope, crossed singly with their
horses through the swirling water
Arrived on the opposite bank, the
French drew up in a line and charged
the German flank at Mervile, driving
the Germans back and opening the
way fos the passage over the river Of

occupied Estaires.
The present war differs from all
p previous wars, inasmuch as no one
knows just when a battle begins and
when it ends What is now known as
the battle OF the four rivers. the
Scarne, the Somme, the Disc and the
Aisne, may be regarded as concluded,
and fresh stage OF the operations
begun with the fall of Antwerp and
the renewed appearance of strong
allied army in Belgian territory
where it has made it's presence felt
by the capture of Ypres.
Meanwhile the siege of the German.

merely desultory. The infantry on
both sides, however is kept constant
ly on the alert. although the Allies
have found il possible to reduce the
strength of those actually on the fir

The cold and wet have made
trench work very trying. but the
Allies are well provided with blankets
and waterproof sheets. The soldiers
are also combating the cold by
means of sheets of parchment which

HOSPITAL Site
rs SELECTED.

The committee winch has lnr
sometime been diligently at work
considering The various proposed
sites for the new Alexandria Hos
pitaI ST night made their re3trt'
After having listened to the argn
ments Of all who had had sites to
suggest. the committee determined
that the square of ground bounded
by Alfred. columbus, Pcndlcton
and Wythe streets. was the most
suitable for the new hospital.
This report was then adopted
by the trustees 'and special commit
tee. and it is hoped that their ac-
ton will prove an end to the con-
troverSy. While certain advanta-
ges were urged for other localities,
the committee, after having duly
considered all suggestions (which
had been made, fixed upon the
ground described above, believing
it the best all things considered.
1t is hoped. that all who have 50
generously subscribed to the fund
for this new and much-nccded in
stitution will be of one accord
and that the work of erecting the
new hospital will be pushed to com,
pletion.
The community duly realizes the
work Of the site corninittce Like
people in all representative capacl,
ties, they have found it Impossible
to please every one interested IN
the matter Of location. They have
done the best they could under the
circumstances, and it is hoped thell
Judgment will meet with genera
approval.
The lot OF ground in the north.
western section Of the city upon
which the new hospital will be en-
ectcd is without doubt Il good loca
ton There will be plenty OF room
for convalet,ing patients to move
about the grounds, which is gsea
dcsiicratum and matter the com
mittec wisely considered. The same
cannot be said Of other proposed
sites. No matter what the advantage
may form.
Thrrc should be no crampcd con
ditions in or about sucil all lnSti
