Cervantes as a Soldier.

From the London Chronicle.
I The statement. writes q correspond

battle of Lepanto is incorrect This
common mistake. as Mr.. H. E. Watts

"F1RsTs' IN THE WAR.
A Contributor of Inquiring Mind
Tells Some War Facts.

From London Answers.
When and where did we fire the first
shot in the great war? On sea. the ball
was probably opened by the Grafton.
which. about midnight on August 4,
1914. put a shot across the bows of a
German barque in the North sea. made
her crew prisoners, and seized her as
a prize of war.
But the honor of landing the first
blow on sea fell to the Amphion, which
on August 5. 1914, sank the German
mine-layer koenigen Luise. The AM
phion herself was sunk by mine on
the following day, and was the first of
our losses. We did not score against
German warships proper, however. till
August 3. 1914, when the Birmingham
sent the U-15 to the bottom
In land operations our first shot was
fired on August 90, 1914, by the 4th
Dragon Guards. The same regiment
was the first to begin killing Germans
This took place at Hermignies. at about
5 am. on August %, when a part of c
Squadron opened fire on a number OF
the enemy at distance of about soc
yards The first Hun to fall was an
officer
1t seems clear. further, that on this
occa sion the 4th Dragons not only took
the first prisoners, but fired the first
machine-guns used on our side in the
war.
AS regards the first shell fired on land
there is some dispute, both E Battery
and D Battery. Royal Horse Artillery,
claiming the record. The evidence in
favor of the former. however, is much
the stronger. 1t went into action at
Bray, near Mons, at 1915 am. on Au-
gust %, and the case of the first shell
it fired Is now in England.
When. again. was gas first used? The
