Running Battle Reported to Have Occurred Tester
 day Morning.
FPENCHMEN WRECK
 THE GERMAN WEDGE
rronch Also Report That Germans Have Completely Abandoned West Bank of the
 Yser.

London. Nov. 3.-The press bureau of the admiralty made the announce ment tonight of a naval engagement which occurred this morning at a nlace the admiralty will not yet dis close. A squadron of German war ships. sighted by British gunboats, fred on the flotilla of small vessels and the squadron started in pursuit
 The Germans fled, leaving in their wake screening of mines, one of which was struck by a. British sub- marine. which was sunk.
 In connection with the report. the London Star prints dispatch from Yarmouth telling of a running naval hattle this morning. The admiralty will not admit that the report con- firms the battle.
 Paris, Nov. 3, il p. m.-French of- 6cial statements, the only informa- lion received this evening, concerned the division to the northeast of Aisne, where we have retaken LeVarne-le- Metz. and in the region of Four-de- Paris and St. Hubert. In the Ar gonne. a. German attack has been re- Dulsed and we also gained ground.
 Paris. Nov 3.-By furious count CT attack the French center army to- day wrecked the German wedge which was being driven at a point near Vailly, On the Aisne.
 The position of Ferrement, occu- pied bys the Germans several days ago. was recaptured by the French who cut the Germans to pieces with quick -firers, wrecked them with ar tillery fire and then charged them with cold steel.
 The Germans have resumed the bombardment of Rheims, according to report to the Temps and the new attack is declared to be almost as violent as the original attempt to reduce this fortress.
 The official statement of the war office, after recording progress near vailly, declares that in the region o1 Feur-de-Paris and St. Hubert, in the Argonne district, the German attacks were not only repulsed but the French were dUlG CO pICSS lOl W ol u eNiiO ON cupy new advance positions.
 Probably the most significant devel- opment of the day was the advent across the Yser of the Germans. Later they seemed to have completely aoan' doned the west bank of the Ysel down from Dixmude and when scout ing troops of the allies came upor them upon the highways through the flooded districts the allies forces hat no difficulty in reoccupying the posi- tions.
 To the south of Dixmude the further advance of the allies troops has beer reported. Indications are that the Of fensive movement in the attempt tt sweep the French coast is doomed t' failure. Finding themselves unabl' to cut through south of Nieuport, thu German commanders have directed al attack against Dixmude.

BIG BOUNTY ON HAIR SEALS
Dominion Fisheries Inspector Gives
$3.50 Head on
Thousand.

New Westminster, B. Cit is an
nounced by F. u. Cunningham, chief
inspector of dominion fisheries, that
bounty will be paid during the coming
year on another 1000 hair seals. The
first 1000 seals, on which bounty of
$3.50 a head came into force at the
beginning of the year, have already
been killed and paid for and the same
price has now been placed on the
head or rather the tail of each of each
of another thousand.
OF the 1000 seals On which bounty
has been paid, only dozen were shot
in the fraser river, although the de-
partment's patrolmen have reported
seals in the river between Steveston
and the Sandheads in considerable
numbers. While some were reported
in February, they became much more
plentiful later, 20 being sighted on
March 4, while So were counted on
March 10, and 100 on April 10. Few
river fishermen seem to have made
any effort to get the seals, though
their tails are worth $3.50 each.

A Recipe for Beauty.

''For giving the face good color,
get one pot of rouge and one rabbit
foot. Bury them two miles from
home and walk out and back once a
day to see if they are still there. :"
This advice is given in the current
issue of the Journal of the American
Medical Association. "Time has
taken the faint from the tint" says
the article, "but the average man in
rational clean mind would prefer to
see colored wigs and rouge on the
women of the chorus and the public
tangoist than his own feminine kins-
folk"
