He says in part:
\ century hence men of our blood

country, few miles wide, has been
fought one of the great battles OF
history. Many thousands of men adj
vanced upon the enemy with a spirit
Of marvellous seif-sacrifice beyond the

TWO BOYS SNAKE CHARMERs.
Have Big Variety of the Reptiles
and Handle Them Without Fear.

GALENA, Kan, July 1.-Two small
boys. Willie and Robert Shorl, the
elder OF whom is II, have produced Il
new sensation in the vicinity Of their
home Mt Five Nile, where they have Il
big cage full of writhng, twisting
snakes Of many varieties They plav
with these reptiles without the least
sign Of fear, going through with all
the stunts OF professional snake charm
crs.
The snakes coil themselves about the
boys necks and bodies The lads look
in the eyes Of their pets steadily as
they play with them and they handle
them with the skill of a professional.
The collection consists Of black
snakes, blue racers, chicken snakes and
three ugly looking "rattlcrs. On
Saturday they usually 90 down on
Snake Branch and hunt for more rep
tiles. However, these new reptiles are
not placed with their "pets,' but are
kept in a separate cage and are usually
shipped to owners of small shows and
museums, from whom they get from So
to s. for each snake.
Neither of the boys has even been
bitten. The older boy gave lecture
on snakes before the pupils of the
Shoal Creek school He astonished
teacher and pupils alike by his elias
sification of reptiles, giving their Lat
in names and discussing the harmless
or dangerous varieties, taking each
from a box rs he explained its varied
habits
Boy friends of the Shorl lads follow
them about and n few are brave
enough to timidly touch a reptile 5 tail
when its head is securely held by one
of the experts. - Bat the instant
the snake darts out its tongue they de
part in haste.
What the boys and grown people of
the neighborhood do not know is the
fact that the fangs of all the poisonous
reptiles have been removed. This was
done by an uncle of the boys, a profess
sional snake charmer, who visited them
almost a year ago.

TINS story OF our advance upon the Ger,
man lines when we captured trenches
by an assault that could not be re-
sisted at first even by overwhelming
gunfirc
The number of casualties was HIGH
throughout the whole length Of the
front, especially on the left of our al
tack, and this was inevitable because
the men counted no cost. The enc
my s losses were frightful, too. and
has courage was great. 1t was because
there were very brave men on both
sides that the battlefield in this region
was strewn with stricken men.
1.-The enemy had expected an at
tack here and had massed his heaviest
guns at this point His barraoe fire
was immense in it's effect. 70 reach
his line our men had to pass wall Of
bursting shells. At the moment of tho
infantry attack the German soldiers
stood on their parapets and fired on our
advancing men with automatic rifles.
''Their machine gunners also showed
extreme courage They. forced their
way over broken parapets and
swept our ranks with scythe of bull
lets. Numbers of our men dropped
the others went on charging the ma,
