q dog bowling hideously, with reitera-
ton of two long-drawn notes? Have
you ever sought the quiet Of your own

by the incesssnt thud of one and the
same tune on neighbor's piano?
Either experience probably drove
you almost crazy. ..r...
And yet you, whoever you are, are
capable of whining out the same old
tune over and over again in the pro-

Three in Contest for Republican Nom- ination for Congress in First Dis trict.

Manchester. N. H., Sept. 3.-Ar- engagements were virtually finished today for bringing out the voters at the biennial state primaries next Tuesday to select candidates for the November election.

Thomas Chalmers, who resigned his pastorate at the First Congregational church in this city to enter the cam paign and George Irving Hazelton, who was president of the state senate at the last session.
 For the republican gubernatorial nomination there are two candidates in the fleld-Colonel Rosecrans w. Pillsbury, of Londonderry, a former newspaper publisher and shoe manu- facturer, and Henry w. Reyes, of Ha- verhill, a farmer and former chair man of the state excise commission. The democrats also have a two-cor- nered contest for head of the ticket between John c. Hutchins, a drug gist of North Stratford, and Albert w. Noone a woolen manufacturer of Pe- terboro.
 The progressives will hold no pri- mary this year but may write the name of candidates they favor on the ballots of other parties. Those receiV- ing the majority of votes may appear on the ballots at the November cleo ton as the progressive candidates.

A combined attack by French and British forces on the Somne front Sunday resulted in an important gain of ground between the villages of For est and Clery, which lie south of Combles and east of Maurepas, over an extent of nearly four miles. These two places were occupied by the French, while the British captured a part of the village of Ginchy and gained total possession of Guillemont. Thus the advance of the allies is closing in on Combles, which at present is a power fully fortified German stronghold.
 In the various attacks launched by the British and French upwards of 5000 prisoners vert taken, together with large number of guns. The artillery action prior to the infantry attacks was of great intensity along the Forest-Clery sector, while both British and French inaugurated fur ther attacks at various other points.
 The German positions east of the village of Fleury were also overrun by the French, who carried several trench es and organized works
 The Germans returned to their at tacks in the Verdun sector, sending large forces of infantry against the French positions at VauX and ChaDi- ire, and, after heavy fighting, gaining a foothold in one Of the French sali- ents. At all points apparently the fighting continues with the utmost ferocity.

ENTENTE SHIPS SINK
 A GERMAN SUBMARINE.
Austro- German Residents in Athens
 Thrown Into a Panic.

Athens, Sept. Q via London Sept. B. Ships of the entente fleet sank a Ger man submarine this morning off PhaI- eron. Entente military officers claim the undersea boat had received it's supplies from the Austrian and Ger man ships which were seized in the harbor of Piraeus today by French sailors
 A number of destroyers of the en- tente fleet made a careful reconnais- sance near the arsenal this afternoon They put down anti submarine nets and nosed close to where the I4emnos and the Kilkis. formerly the United States battleships Mississippi and Idaho, were lying.
 It is currently believed here that the entente fleet desires to establish naval base at Piraeus as a base of sup plies for the entente allied arrny's west wing on the Macedonian front, which could be more easily supplied by rail from Piraeus than from Saloniki Should this action prove to be of mili- tary value to the entente powers, the Greek government, it is understood will not object.
 The seizure of the Austrian and German merchant ships at Piraeus and the occupation by entente troops of the Greek Wifeless station last (F'riday) night threw the Austrc- German resi- dents in Athens, and especially the agents of the German government, into 3 panic.
