Air Clear as Cystal.

Yesterday morning set gunner's
smile was OH the face of the whole
army. Instead of rain and mist. max
ing a gunner's bane of low visibility,
almost wintry sun was shining in
crystal clear air-literally an artillery
mans heaven. All the gun tribe neces-
sary for the job were up and in posi-
tion, all ready, waiting for such day
thie, when the eyes that see for them
from the observation posts can tell
whether the practice shells they leis-
urely fire are on the target which they
are to paste as far as they can on the
signal being given for the concert to
begin. When the same kind of weather
continued today staff officers who ar
range these affairs said: This is NOV
ing day for the Germans in Regina
trench"
The Regina is long trench of nearly
three miIes-about the same length as
the battle front at Gettysburg.
Shortly after noon, when there had
been the usual amount of sheilfire all
morning and no sign anywhere on
the landscape that anything unusual
was going to happen, No l curtain
fire was suddenly turned on with
the same effect on the ear as when all
the whistles of New York start when
the clock strikes twelve on New Years
eve.
British Soon in Control
The usual DlilOWy cIoud OIL smell
smoke, vigorously extensive in the
cold air. churned and whipped the
length of Regina trench with the Gus
tomary accuracy of these swathes of
death and tempest, and then the Brit
ish infantry were in full possession Of
the trench.
Some Germans bolted from the first
ugly breath of that barrage, knowing
from experience that the only thing
10 do was to move on to another posi-
tion and force the gunners TO prepare
another deluge for the next step Of
the entente allied offensive. Six hun
dred left alive were taken prisoner
The gunners are smiling at the stars
tonight, which promise another fair
day tomorrow. The cold weather has
transformed the army into a winter
chrysalis. The battalions are march
ing up the trenches all wearing their
overcoats. The call is. for more choco-
late and more slices of bacon frizzling
in pans in the dugouts.
The Runners who were stripped for
their work in August now warm their
hands on the heated gun barrels At
night on the field where fires are per-
rnitted the men gather around the
blaze of any wood they can gather

is so long as the ground is not soaked
by rain.

BRITISH FRONT IN FRANCE. Octo-
ber Il, via London, October 23.-With
the return of fighting weather the
British resumed the offensive on a
larger scale this afternoon and turned
on enough gunfre and sent in enough
troops to make sure Regina trench was
theirs. 1t was the most important at
tack for three weeks.
All this month Regina trench has
been developing sinister reputation.
IT joins on to the old first-line fortifi-
cations in the neighborhood of Thiep-
val. and anything in that region, with
comfortable dugouts, the Germans like
TO retain in order to prevent the active
battlefront from broadening, and for
another reason. which British soldier
expressed when he said: with winter
coming on We feel the need of those
deep snug dugouts the Germans spent
So much time in building"
Parties of the British got possession
of portions of Regina trepch on several
occasions. but the Germans Sw d rned i'll
front of their burrows and repulsed the
invaders. Evidently, Regina trench was
not to be taken by nibbling and re-
quired one big bite. In such cases
there is nothing to do but wait till
clear weather. when the gunners can
see what they are doing and turn on a
