SHE'LL OF GERMANS BLASTS TUNNEL FOR
 FRENCH ENGINEERS
Death Dealing Device Turned to Useful Account, Saves Fifty Men Eight Days of Devilish Hard Digging.

VERDUN, France, Sept. 26.-Corre- While the selling of Verdun has done a tremendous amount of damage, yet there is one remarkable incident in which a German bombshell has actu- ally performed a very useful piece of military engineering.
 General Dubois, command of the citadel, pointed out to the Associated Press this curious freak wrought by a German shell.
 '1 calculate, said the general, that that one shell has done for me the hard work of fifty men working stead fly for eight days.
 The net result of the shells work was to tear a hole through the rear Notifications, and thus opening the way for a tunnel which was much needed. Besides that, the same shell knocked down two large trees at the end of the tunnel. which fell across the river in such way that they formed the foundation of a bridge.
 After the smoke had cleared away and the wreckage had been inspected. General Dubois concluded that the path of the shell would be turned to useful account The jagged hole through the Notifications was proper ly cleared up and cemented, and now it represents the appearance of rath- CT good-looking archway. The trees. lying across the river, were properly anchored at either end. and solid upper structure with ornamental side railings, was constructed. Then a narrow gauge railway was run from the citadel through this shell hole, and over this bridge lying on the blown-up trees, so that a direct rail way connection was established be tween the citadel and the rear. This railway performs a very useful service and the whole thing is the outgrowth of the big German shell which fell just back of the citadel.

(By Review Leased Wire.)

CINCINNATI, Oct. 2.-Allan l.. Ben son, socialist candidate for president of the United States, left Cincinnati tonight for Denver, where he will be gin a tour to the Pacific coast states.
 In an address here tonight MT. Ben son again attacked President Wilson's stand on the draft clause in the Hay Chamberlain bill, and at the same time said MT. Hughes had remained silent relative to this question.
 President Lincoln did not have or assume the right of the draft and President Wilson has never been giv- en that right" MT Benson declared. If the people want the President to have this right, well and good, if not, well and good, but the people should be permitts1 to say"
 Mir. Benson took up the question of the living wage" and the high cost of living. He said that the working class deny that they are obtaining a living wage. If the wealthy class should be forced to live on wages now given the working class would they consider it a living wage under the existing cost of living?" asked Mir. Benson.

LEMeERG AGAIN IN PERIL


 PETROGRAD, Oct. 2.-(Via Lon don)-The fighting along the south westerly front has reached another of its periodic climaxes, which has turned in favor of the Russians, yielding them large number of prisoners, and has again threatened Lemberg from two important directions-alongt the main railway frmo Brody to Lemberg and from BreAzany.
 Thus along sixty mile front the Russians again appear to be closing in on the Galician capital but the vagueness of the official communica- tions and the absence of supplemen- tary details leave the extent of the Russian advance in doubt.
 On the other hand, Field Marshal von Hindenburg's reported attempts to begin an offensive to recover lost territory, have been equally fruitless.
 LONDON, Oct. 2.-On the front in France the Germans at EucOurt LAD baye in fierce fighting regained footing in some of the building of that town. West of Guevecourt and east of Courecelette the British improved their position. On the part Of the line held by the French the men of Gen eral Foch made progress east of Bouchayesnes and repulsed an attack south of the Sonme in the region O. Nermandovillers.

 Dr. McDuffie first tried the effects Of injecting trypsin into the veins Of animals, and found that it caused a rapid and considerable fall in blood pressure. but did no harm ar all. The first human case on which he tried il was that Of 3 woman with carcinoma e the breast This had been removed by a surgeon but had recIrred and was spreading to the glands above the collar bone Unfortunately the very day that this woman was to be discharged from the hospital cured she died of apoplexy.

 The second case was that of labor e ftty-tour years old with 2 sarcoma of the lower jaw that had been re- moved with the knife, but had recur- red and was involving the glands of the neck. He was treated with tryp- sin injected into . vein one cubic cen ,imetre at 9 time at varying intervals over 9 period of eight weeks. By the end ot this time the growth had been absorbed and the general health was markedly improved.
