PARIS, Aug. 7.-The war office this afternoon issued the following statement which had been received from the Somme battlefront:
 Under a merciless concentration of shell fire the Australians are hold ing their gains today after an ad- vance last night on a front two miles in length. The Germans all ready have delivered three powerful coun- ter attacks to retake the lost ground but all have failed In one of the counter attacks the Germans came forward holding up their hands. Be- hind them the British had placed curtains of shell fire through which 1t was impossible for them to return, while the Australians machine guns and rifles moved them down and made 1t hopeless to continue the charge of death which ever way they moved. Death was certain if they stood still or lay down in the bullet swept space and they surrendered rather than continu their vein ef' forts.

A near serious accident occurred to a party Of picnicers yesterday afternoon at Young's Bay and Mrs. F. Paris is in the hospital suffering from nervous shock and two other men are under the care of phys sicians.
 A party of fifteen people visited Young's Bay on the gas boat Lotus. When being transferred from the beach to the boat. ready to return in the evening, one boat load of six persons was caught by breaker while alongside the Lotus and thrown into the water when the skin overturned. They were hauled from the water as rapidly as pos sible and rushed to town, but suf- fered from exposure on account of their wet clothing.
 Wild rumors were going the rounds of the streets last night that the Lotus had foundered with fifteen people on board, and that skiff had overturned and three had been drowned but the rumors all proved groundless.

Robert Service Plans To Occupy Time on the
 Battlefront when
 He Is Not Busy.
"BALLADS OF BATTLE"
American Publisher Is To Secure the Poets Of- feringS and Put
 Them in Book.

Robert W. Service, Alaska'0 poet, laureate, who for several months has been busy heaying bombs from French to German trenches with a lacrosse racquet. is going to write a book on Ballads Of Battle"-as soon as he can find time This story came in private letter from pub fisher.
 Frank c. Dodd, of Dodd, Meade & Co.,, went to France last April in an effort to find Service and induce him to write some poetry dealing with the war. Service was at the front and Dodd was unable to get pass permitting him Co visit the trenches He was not particularly anxious about making the trip anyway cs the point at which Service was liy. Ing at that time was not very health rul there being supernuity of Ger man bullets and pieces of shrapnel whistling through the atmosphere. He left a letter for Service and returned to the United Stotes. A few days ago, Dodd received an answer which he forwarded to friend of Ser vices.
 Is Good Pitcher
 I've been on the front for nearly year" the Alaskan poet writes and have developed considerable proficiency as a bomb-throwcr. IT | ever get back to America the an. archists will be sure to want to hire me. Lately l have been driving ammunition automobile truck and do- ing ambulance work, which is not quite as nerve racking as is bomb throwing. But at that my nerves are becoming somewhat traz- zled. guess 1t must be the noise. Tu have to quit before long, and when ! get back to where It's quieter I'll see what can do about writing something on the war"
 A story is told to the effect that some time ago Service rescued a wounded Irishman. The man died before he reached a base hospital. Service, who. although he is poet, has good business sense, found in tho mans pockets a copy of poem ,n War" written in long hand. Ser rice read and thought it a master piece. He told newspaper cores oondents of the great tragedy. Here had been discovered an unknown genius who died on the eve Of gain ing public recognition. The newspa per correspondents printed the story of the poem and then it was dis
 oyered that the verse had been writ m nearly sixty years ago by an au' hor of international reputation.
