Gazette today. Tie commander in
chief writes:
The event OF chief interest and i'm
portance which has taken place is the
victory achieved over the enemy in
the battle OF Neuve Chapelle. which
was fought on March 10. II and 70.
The main attack was delivered BY
the troops Of the First army. under
command of General Sir Douglas Hang
supported by a large force OF heavy
artillery. a division of cavalry and
some infantry OF the general reserve.
Secondary and holding attacks and
demonstrations were made along the
front of the second army under direc-
ton OF its commander. Sir Horace
Smith-Dorrien.
Whilst the success attained WAS
due to the magnificent bearing and
indOmitable courage displayed By the
troops of the Fifth and Indian corps,
I consider that the able and skillful
dispositions which were made BY the
general officer commanding the First
army contributed largely TO the defeat
of the enemy and TO the capture -
his position. The energy and vigor

A Surprise Attack

Another action of considerable I'M
portance was brought about by a sur
prise attack made by the Germans
on March Il against the 9th division
holding the trenches east OF St EliO.
A large force of artillery was concen-
trated in this area under the cover
of mist and heavy volume OF nre
was suddenly brought TO bear on the
trenches.
AT five O'Clock in the afternoon this
artillery attack was accompanied by
two mine explosions. and in the con-
fusion caused by these and by the sud
denness of the attack the position OF
St Eloi was captured and held for
some hours by the enemy.

No Longer a Mining Camp Trade


''Ranchmen of the western part of
Colorado no longer enjoy the demand
for cattle which was created there in
the early days by booming mining
camps" Thus spoke George S. Will
kinson of Eagle, Colorado, who is one
of the stockmen who profited from the
mine camp buying, and who declared
on the Kansas City market today that
his trade had dwindled.
'sIn the exciting mining days when
Leadville was a city of $4,000 inhab
itants," said Mr.. Wilkinson, "we could
sell our cattle at home for good prices.
But as mining excitement passed away,
and cities no longer grew up in a few
days, We had to seek other markets.
For seven years after 1 located there
was more than $50 miles from the near
est railroad, which meant long drives
over trails. Today stock farming is Oh
a new basis, and mining excitements are
only memories of our early day expert

snow fell, while on Wednesday after
noon and night total of eight inches
more of the beautiful spread over the

inches of snow in the two storms. The
weather turned much colder on Thurs

snowfall would remain with us for
awhile. The copious fall of snow is Il
boon to the Colorado-Yule company,
whose power will be materially in
creased as soon as the melting begins
and the snow gets settled so that 1t
does not clog the flow of water in the
river. An extra nozzel of water was
available at the hydro-electric plant

We noticed an article in one of our
exchanges this week where flowers
were piled high at funeral of some
we'll known lady of Adams county who
died very suddenly. AS we read those
lines, we stopped and began to wonder
how many flowers Of kindness had been
shown that good lady while she could
really enjoy their sweetness. Money
will always buy flowers, but it requires
no money to speak cheering word,
give pleasant smile or a little help
while people are yet on earth so they
can express their appreciation on re-
ceipt of such offerings. Cour-

BUILT FORTUNE ON THUMB
German Surgeon the Fortunate Pos
SCISSOR of Digit That Had Remark
able PecuIiarities.

Not long ago famous physician
in Saxony, Doctor Metzger, celebrated
his SEVENTEEN birthday. He had been
retired from active practice for some
years, owing to the fact that he had
become immensely wealthy through
the use of the wonderful thumb Of his
right hand. This thumb stands out at
a right angle from his hand and, 1t Is
said, cannot be bent back automatic
ally. He soon found it of great serv-
ice in massage, and when he became a
specialist In intestinal disorders he
was called as assistant to the greatest
surgeons of Europe, bringing relief to
many illustrious patients.
The queen Of Roumania sent for this
doctor with the curious thumb when
she suffered from facial neuralgia,
while the late king of Sweden once
drove beautiful span of horses over
the border of his kingdom to consult
the doctor and on returning left the
horses as token of gratitude to his
preserver.
There was a time, early in his ca
reer, when the use of this curious
thumb was looked upon as form of
charlatanism, but SO we'll did Doctor
Metzger establish his reputation that
the medical profession accepted his
thumb for what 1t was worth, without
trying to explain the phenomenon.
