WOMAN SEPARATED
GETS NO DAMAGES
Board Rules Widows Dependen-
cy Must be One Of Fact.

Harrisburg, Pa, June 1.-THE state
workmen's compensation board, in an
opinion rendered here, rules that a
woman separated from her husband
cannot claim compensation for MS
death or injury.
The decision was rendered in the
case of Helen Bryant Boone, of Mil
ford, Del, against the Pennsylvania
railroad, the husband having been kill
ed. The referee found that the hus-
band had been supporting the wife and
child from November, 1913, until May,
1914. He was killed January, 1916.
The referee made an award to the
widow and child.
The board finds that the widow vol
UNFAIRLY withdrew from her husband
some time before his death and re-
versed the referee in his award to the
widow, saying:
"She asserted and maintained an in.
dependent status quite Incompatible
with that dependency contemplated by
our act. She renounced her depend
ency previous to her husbands death.
We hold that under our act the wild
ow's dependency is one of fact and
not of law"
The award to the minor child was
modified.

GERMANS DRIVEN
OUT OF TRENCHES
French Attacks Gain 433 Yards
Near Dead Mans Hill.
The TEUTONS ADMIT LOSS

The FIercest Infantry Fighting Of
the War Raees West of the Meuss
River.
London, June 2--In an attack on
German positions southeast OF Dead
Mans Hill (Le Mort Homme) on the
Verdun front, the French obtained
foothold in the German line trenches
over an extant of 43S yards, the Der
lin war Office announced.
The French made repeated assaults
on the German lines but other than
that at the point mentioned were beat
en- off with extremely heavy losses.
The Germans were also repulsed In
an attack delivered upon the French
positions at Dead Mans Hill, accord
ing to an official statement issued by
the French war office. A violent bonn
bardment continued In this region
throughout the night. An intense ar
tillery duel is in progress on the east
and west front at Douaumont.
The Paris war office statement ADDS
that during the night of May 31-June
l a French air squadron threw down
twenty shells on the railroad stations
of Thionville, Audun and LIE Roman,
and fifty other shells upon the com
missary headquarters of the enemy a.
Azannes.
More complete accounts from Yer
dun show that the battle which ragged
from MAY 27 to May so and which end
ed, according to a statement or the
French war office, in a costly checR
for the Germans, was the greatest
effort made by the Teutonic forces IN
the whole Verdun operations. More
and heavier guns and denser masses
of troops were assembled along the
three miles of the French front from
Hill 3O4 to the Meuse than In any pre-
vious attack.
The French stood firm under an
avalanche of shot and shell and drove
back wave after wave OF Teutonle
infantry. They only surrendered about
100 yards of ground at Little Caurettes
wood where trench had been obl1ter
ated by the terrific fire Of the Ger
mans big guns.
According to information given p9
prisoners, the German forces consist
ed of two fresh brigades Q2,OOO mem
with three companies Of pioneers.
The mission Of the latter was tc
work around Cumieres and reach the
Chattancourt village by the road run
ming parallel to the railroad. In the
meantime two other regiments (6,OOC
mem were ordered to creep along the
bank of the river and seize the Chat
tancourt railroad station to the west
of the village. Another brigade was
instructed to storm the woods and
hedgerows which border Chattancouri
to the west, while other detachments
acting still farther to the west, were
to support the attack. In the opinion

such as they nave rarely attained.
The Germans suffered so heavily
that they ceased further attacks, while
the French, by a prompt counter at
tack, re-established themselves again
south Of Cumieres and won an import
ant point of vantage on the southwest
ern slope of Dead Mans Hill.
1t develops that during Wednesdays
battle west of the Meuse the Germans
sent back the French line between
Dead Mans Hill and Cumieres for a
distance of three-quarters of a mile.
The French battalions, however, which
had retired before the unprecedented
artillery fire, reformed and made a
desperate counter attack, supported by
reinforcements. After nearly two
hours of violent fighting they recover,
ed all the lost ground. The infantry
fighting in this struggle is described
as the fiercest Of the war.

WhALER TO SEEK
SHACkLET0N Men
twenty-five Of Party Were Left
in Ice Gave.
ALL SUFFERED TERRIBLY

Explorer With Five Men Made Hazard
Gus journey for Aid After Ship Was
Crushed by Ice.
London, June "A further mes
sage received from Lieutenant Sir
Ernest Shackleton, the Antarctic ex-
plorer, whose arrival at Port Stanley,
Falkland Islands, shows that the eX-
petition had a remarkable escape.
After meeting with almost unpre-
cedented weather in the early part OF
1916, the lieutenant's ship Endurance
was badly nipped by the great icebergs
and afterward foundered.
In view of the information received
from Shack.eton, the plans Of the gov
eminent for sending relief eXpedl-
ton from England, will be abandoned
and a whaler will be sent from the
Falkland Islands to rescue the ma
rooned men.
Sir Ernest succeeded in getting off
all his men and some stores. Terrible
privations were suffered. After most
hazardous journey the explorer reach
ed Elephant Island. The scarcity of
food became so serious that he decid-
ed to leave the greater part OF his
men while he set off for help. Ra-
lions for the men left behind were
stored in hole dug in the ice.
After a journey of three weeks,
probably unprecedented in the annals
of Antarctic expeditions, Sir Ernest
reached South Georgia. There he
sought the assistance of whalers for
the rescue of the party on Elephant
Island, but this proved to be impos-
sible owing to the prevalence of unfa
vorable weather conditions.
The message says there is urgent
need for help for the marooned men
After a careful examination of the
text of Shackleton's original cable, Sill
Douglas Mawson, the explorer, said:
INSTEAD of drifting until April OF
this year, as has been suggested, 1t
is quite plain the Endurance was
stuck in the icef1oes from March OF
last year until October q, when the
pressure became too great The En-
durance was crushed and sank on the
latter date in the middle of Weddell
sea.
"Shackleton abandoned the sinking
ship, dragging the whaleboats and sup
plies on an icefioe on which he contin
ued to drift until April Of this year
It appears that having at that tins
reached open water the lieutenant and
his companion launched a whaleboai
and sailed for Elephant Island, of the
South Shetland group, arriving there
April Is.
There the lieutenant left twenty
two men in an ice cave and proceeded
with five others in an open boat to
South Georgia island, where he hoped
| to meet whaling vessels, and thus gel
| in touch with civilization. His voyage
| from the South Shetlands to South
| Georgia, distance of 900 miles in ar
| open twenty-five foot boat, amid ice
was hazardous and remarkable feat
even for so skilled a navigator and sea
man as Shackleton.
'"The South Shetland Islands are in
vested with foe ice at this time o.
the year, and it will not be easy te
reach the men on Elephant Island un
til later"
The news of Sir Ernest Shackleton's
safety was delivered promptly to Lady
| Shackleton.

Why Tolerate Catarrh?

You have noticed, no doubt, that any cold aggravates nasal catarrh, and the flow of mucous amazes you that such objectionable matter could find lodg- ment in your head. To ignore this catarrh when the cold subsidies is wrong because it continues to slowly iniure the delicate Things of the nasal passages and clog them up.
 To correct catarrh, cleanse the nos trils frequently with a solution of warm water and salt, insert vaseline on re- tiring, and take spoonful of Scott's Emulsion after meals for one month. Scott's acts through the blood to feed the tissues, and contains soothing glycerine to check the inflammation and heal the sensitive membranes.
 Scott's is pleasant to take.

Simple Way To
 End Dandruff

There is one sure way that has never failed to remove dandruff at once, and that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, common liquid arvon from any drug store (this is all you will need), apply it at night when retiring use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
 By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dis solve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of 1t, no matter how much dandruf you may have.
 You will find all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and book and feel a hundred times better.
