OFFICER STAYS I5
Performs Daring Exploit With
Homemade Bombs.
Crawls in Dark to German Trenches.
Destroys Machine Gun and Kills
Enemy's Soldiers With Hand
Grenades Made by Himself.
BY FRANKLIN p. MERRIck.


international News Service Correspondent.
Paris.-With three bombs made by
himself, an officer of engineers of the
British army has just performed an
exploit worthy of chronicling. He
crept up to the German trenches and
killed Is Germans, besides destroying
a machine gun.
This sapper was stationed at point
of the battle line where the British
and German trenches are near to each
other. He fitted up a laboratory in a
farm house in which he was quartered
and here he began to manufacture
test personally.
A few dozen yards before the first
British line was a German trench III
which was posted a machine gun that
had killed many English.
The trench was cleverly built in
sections, SO that the British could not
capture one point and then fire down
the trench 1t was like a row of old
fashioned church pews, each pew say
six yards long with about five Ger
mans in it. The machine gun was
posted in a pew so situated that 1t
could sweep the whole front for long
distance. Before it was shield and
a parapet.
The British officer selected a time
when it was quite dark and crawled
carefully to. within about a dozen
yards of the machine guns position
He carried one of his homemade
bombs in each side pocket and another
in his hand He hurled the first right
in next to the machine gun.
There was a terrific explosion CD
the single man in the trench to re.
main alive screamed with pain. The
machine gun was hopelessly wrecked,
The Germans along the line did not
realize what had happened. The bold
sapper was not content with the dam
age he had wrought so instead of
crawling back to safety, he leaped
into the trench with the machine gun
and the dead and dying Germans. The
compartments of the trench were con.
nected by passageways, making an
angle The Germans in the compart-
ment next to that of the machine gun
were in an uproar, firing in the direc-
ton of the British lines and evidently
believing the allies we're delivering
general attack The Englishman
hurled his second bomb among them.
Five or six Germans were torn to
shreds. Into the second compartment
the sapper crawled and cast this third
and last bomb into the next group
along the line The effect was as
great as before.
To clear out the three compart-
ments Of the trench had been the
work of not more than three minutes.
After completing his task, the officer
wriggled back to his own lines un-
harmed.

Big CORN YIELD ON
THIRTY-SEVEN ACRES

The best corn yield record we
have heard Of so far this season is
that of }. S. Riley of Biggers. Mr..
Riley finished gathering his crop
last week and succeeded in getting
twenty-five hundred bushels Of corn
from thirtY.seven acres Of ground,
or a little less than sixty eight
bushels per acre. This corn was
cultivated iu the ordinary way and
no fertilizer was used, which goes
to prove the superior qualities OF
Randolph county soil. 1t proves
further that it is not at all Impossi-
BILE to produce one hundred bushels
and more on a single acre by using
fertilizer and following the Govern.
ment methods Of scientific farming.
