Was a COnsiderate Shell

From the London Chronicle. s
 A curious story is told of the ill-fated Triumphs first attack the Turkish forts. In the course of a furious bonn bardment at close quarters-the range at one time being no more than 150o yards a shell pierced the Triumphs quarter deck, setting fire to the wood work in and about the captains cabin. But the same shell had the presence of mind to burst the bathroom water pipes and thus extinguish the flames 1t had just ignited.

Many Germans at Large

The internment of Germans in England
 is not nearly so complete official Lon
 don would have it supposed. There are too
 many of them. Heads of English families
 where German servants were employed
 sent these folk immediately to the authori- ties, but in many instances they were sent back at once. It is not uncommon to go into a cafe and hear the persons at an adjoining table conversing in German. It is believed that this fact has a large bearing on the strict censorship of the news which, however much the American papers may complain, is much more rigid here for local publications than 1t is for cable message
