COUNTER-ATTACKS REPUlSED
German Trenches on Half Mile Front
Captured and Held Against the
Enemy.

London, July 30-Acting in concert
the British and French forces attacked
together today and as result of their
cooperation both made valuable gains.
Gen. Douglas fiaig reports that the
enemy must have suffered heavily,
while the French night comhuaiqIa
implies the same when 1t announces
tlat the ground gained was held
against powerful German counter at
tacke.
The fighting was at the point where
the British right rests againS the
French left, with the Somme between.
The Mitish attacked in secri0l le-
tween the Delville wood and the
Somme and after heavy engagement
were able to move eastward beyond
Waterlot farm and Trones wood
which, like Delville wood, has been a
death trap for thousands.
The French took German trenches
from Hardecouht to the river on a
front from 800 to 500 meters deep
and three and half miles long. Be
sides. they pressed forward tothe out
skirts of the village of Maurepas, east

Songs etc.. Performed on the Occas
ion" one of these, marked "Previ-
Gus to the oration;" has two verses,
the first being as follows;
THE day the blissful day returns,
That freed us from the foe;
Each patriot breast with rapture burns
Which patriots only know.
The laundering cannons cease to roar
Sweet peace her timbrel sounds
The din of war is heard no more,
But love and JOY abounds.'
After the oration," another song
was sung, this written by the orator
of the day himself.
Columbia rejoice, let praises resound,
For mercies receivetA each bosom
should glow;
When tumult and bloodshed encom.
PASSED us round.
Kind heaven in mercy defeated the foe.
"IIe banished our fears, and saved us
from death,
When Howe and Burgoyne invaded

Let JOY in Jehovah enliven each
While cheerful we reverence the
work OF His hand.

See Warner and Clark existence re-

The following verse would seem 1,
indicate that Trench nghting' Is no
an invention of the present European

HE MOVED HIS WELL.
|. Wasn't Pulled UP Nor Sawed Up, but
X Did Change Place.

There Is an old story about the man
who pulled up well ana took 1t to n
more desirable location and another
about the man who took up well,
sawed 1t In sections and used one OF
the sections for land roller. They
were exaggerations. but the experience
of Ezra Tetlow proves that well can.

fixture. Ezra had well In front of his
house. Ii had never been success as
we'll Ezra wanted it filed up. One
way would have been to haul stones or
earth and use the material to I'll It,
But Ezra had no team.
So he went at it with shovel
Working on the side Of the well next to
the road, he began TO dig and to throw
the dirt into the well. He kept this up
until he had filed 1t, which was not
difficult job, as the we'll was rather
shallow.
But when the task seemed finished
Ezra found that he had made n new
hole by the side Of the one he had been
llling. There was but one thing to do
he proceeded TO I'll 1t In the same
manner. OF course this resulted In still
another excavation, which In turn re-
ccivcd similar treatment.
AS all of E2ra's digging had been on
the side of the well nearest the road.
the result was that the hole In the
ground was finally moved ont into the
| highway.
| Judson Tolllver was commenting on
the exploit one day down at the cor
ners. Queer thing Ezra did" he re-
marked. "Ypu know that old well that
stood In his front yardI Well. sir, he's
moved 1t thirty feet from where 1t was

How'd he do ~" inquired another

FEAR OF EPIDEMIC
IS DECREASING
IN NEW YORK
Not So Many Persons Fleeing from
Paralysis City
NOT so MANY DEATHS REPORTED
Only 10 Fatalities Reported Sunday
But Rcord Was Incomplete as
Physicians Were Absent.

New York, July 31.-The Depart
ment of Health record of new cases of
infantile paralysis and deaths showed
a marked decrease in both yesterday.
The deaths fell from A on Friday to
13 yesterday. No particular import.
ance was assigned by Health Depart.

it is probable considerable number
OF deaths were not reported because
physicians are out of the city.
The number of cases in Manhattan
is increasing, 40 being reported yester
day Nine of the thirteen deaths &C.
CURED in Brooklyn.
The new cases reported yesterday
hundred l45, as compared with iGl OIL
Friday. DR.. Haven Emerson, Commis
sioner of Health, made a tour OF in
spection yesterday to hospitals treat

States Public Health Service, wlo is
in charge of the issuance of Federal
health certificates TO those leaving the
State, visited most of the terminals
and ferries during the day to see now
his assistants were getting along with
the week end crowds. He found that
most of them were not so busy as they
were on Saturday, when more than
1000 certificates were issued at 'ae
Grand Central Terminal alone.
The Federal officers stopped issuing
certificates at p. III. to take an after
