GROWS DESPERATE

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN
FRANCE, April &c.
The Germans are bombarding Ypres
with great seventeen inchers. The
roar of these great pieces, the latest
product of the Krupp factories, can
be heard thirty miles.
German incendiary shells fired all
Belgian farms and villages along a
front for twenty miles. Tonight's sky
is Illuminated with glare of blazing
houses and barns. A complete calm
prevails.
The temper of the allies over the
German use of studefying bombs is
the bitterest. The Canadians espec-
tally suffered.
General French expressed supreme
confidence in the ability Of the aHies
to hold the Germans and recover lost
ground. He said: "The farther
they come the harder they will get
whipped. Reinforcements will be
thrown at every point where airmen
indicate the Germans are massed and
will renew assaults.
BERLIN, April 26.-The war office
specifically denied the allies claims
that the Germans had been thrown
back across the User canal. Con-
trary the positions at Lizerne on the
west hank are still held by the Ger
mans. A total of 5000 British pris-
oners, including 1000 Canadians, have
been taken.
In Vosges, the Germans have re-
taken Hartmann Sweilerkopf. They
stormed the heights of West Espar-
ges. Several hundred prisoners and
many machine guns were the result
of each victory. The French night
attacks were repulsed.
LONDON, April 26.-According to
the Press Bureau bulletin, the Brit
ish stopped two determined assaults
from Masschendaele. The fighting
continues desperately, but the allies
are holding their own.
The official report does not claim
that the Germans were driven entire
iy from the west bank of the User.
1t stated the allies are slowly recov-
ering ground.
The report that Won Hindenburg is
directing the latest and greatest Ger
man drive is unconfirmed and not
credited. The report likely originat-
ed from the fact that two and pos
sibly five Of the corps Of first liners
have been withdrawn from Poland
for the RalUion fuhtipn

GERMANS NOW
USING GAS BOMBS

LONDON, April 27.-The Allies are
checking the German drive north.
The French have re-occupied Netsas.
An official report from General
French says that he is confident that
the Ypres attack has been repulsed.
The British movements south of St.
Julian are progressing slowly. AL
lied aviators bombed many German
and Belgian railway stations.
LONDON, April 27.-The Belgian
official report made througs the Press
bureau, is as follows: "Our infantry
was repelled in three attacks on south
Dixmude, by Germans using asphyxi-
ated gas bombs. The enemy sustained
heavy losses when the Belgian ar
tillers cooperating fifth the French
recaptured Lizerne Monday afternoon.
The losses on both sides were heavy.
There is slackening in the fighting
at Ypres today, due to reinforce
ments. The allies are so strongly
reinforced, it is declared to be impos-
sible for the Germans to make their
way further forward.
PARIS, April 27.-Wounded arriv-
ing from User declared the German
gas bombs rendered troops in the
front trenches unconscious. The Ger
mans bayoneted them where they lay.
GRIMSBY, April 27.-The trawler
Recolo was blown up in the North
sea. Several of the crew are mis-
sing. 1t is unknown whether it was
torpedoed or mined.
BERLIN, April 27.-The official
report says, "The Germans were fore
ed to evacuate Nizerene. We deny
the French recaptured Hartmann
Sweilerkopf: The British assault from
Bechondt was repulsed. The enemy
lost extraordinarily heavy.

Wholesale prosecutions of retail
lumber dealers in all sections of the
United tates may be the result of
the recent completion of a federal
investigation into abnormal increases
in the price of lumber used chiefly
for building purposes. The investiga.

tion and is the final chapter in the
quiz that extended through several
administrations into every phase IF

Warden Capp, of the Buena Vista re-

by the governor and confirmed by the
senate (something which was not done
for Mr.. Capp). Capp claims he has
right to the office under the civil

or is it one of the rules of democracy,
never to give up an office until COM

Nothing was ever done in Whining
pn to stimulate in a greater measure
interest among the retail merchants,
than the National Newspaper Window
Display Week, held from October II
to 16. Storekeepers We'd with each
other to have the best window dis
play of nationally advertised goods
with the result that there were a
score or more of local merchants who
had as attractive window displays as
could be found anywhere. Interest
was increased to a great extent by
reason OF the announcement that THE
EVENING JOURNAL would give a
prize for the most attractive window
in Wilmington during Display Week.
A silver water pitcher was offered as
the prize, and in addition, II was de-
cided 70 select the next three best dis
played windows for honorable men
tion.
The next move was to select judges
who had experience as decorators and
could ably handle the proposition. The
men decided upon were:

A glance at the pictures OF these
windows, shown in this article, will
easily convince any one that the
judges exercised good taste in select
ing them. All four were exceedingly
attractive and held strictly to the in
tention of Display Week-that Of dis
playing nationally advertised goods.
There were many other windows that
were exceptionally good and the
only regret of the judges was that
there were no other prizes to dis
tribute.
The idea of National Newspaper
Window Display Week, which is to
