FRENCH LINES ARE SMASHED
ALLIES YIELD GROUND At HEAVY
COST TO ENEMY.
Germans Gain at Two Points While
British Continue to Advance Their
Front North Of Ancre.

London, Nov. 16.-While the British
were further advancing their front
north of the Ancre river, or consolid-
ating their newly won positions, the
French and Germans have been en-
gagged in violent combats both north
and south of the Somme. In both re-
gions the Germans made gains-in the
northern corner and western outskirts
of St. Pierre-Vaast woods, north of the
river and in the eastern part of the
village of Pressoire, south of the
stream.
Germans Suffer Heavy Losses.
The French official communication
in admitting the loss of this ground
says the Germans obtained only limi.
ted advantages at the price of very
heavy losses. In the north the German
attacks extended from Les Beoufs to
the south of Bouchavesnes, front of
five miles and south of the Somme
from Ablaincourt to the Chaulnes
wood, about three miles. The attacks
were launched after violent artillery
preparation.
British Attacks Break Down.
Berlin referring to the British at
tack which gave them the town of
Beaucourt, says that except at Beau
court all the British attacks broke
down with heavy casualties. On the
southern bank of the Ancre the at
tack has already been shattered, says
Berlin, which adds that fighting is
proceeding near Sailly-Saillisel and
Pressoire. According to London, 5,67S
Germans have been made prisoners on
the Ancre front since Monday. The
British losses. considering the extent
of the gains, are declared not to have
been high.

their searchlights on the boat and
blew their whistles.
While the manifest of the Deutsch

Corunna, Spain, Nov 16.-When tho

bian landed here they were accom-.
panied to their hotel by a great crowd
Of people seeking stories of the attack
upon the ship, Which was shelled and
sunk off the Spanish coast by a Ger.

The captain said he was at dinner
when he heard the first gun; it sound
ed remote. 1T the time the Columbian
was making IL knots. Suddenly 4
shell passed over the ship.
American Flag Hoisted.
Captain Curtis, on the bridge, soon
Afterwards distinguished a submarine
four miles distant. He ordered the
American flag hoisted. The subma-
rine, the U49, approached and sig
nailed the captain to follow it, but
not to approach nor attempt to escape.
All on board the Columbian put on
life belts. The captain prepared to
send his first officer by boat to the
submarine with documents and de-
mand that the American flag be re-
spected, but the sea was too high, and
the trip too hazardous. The Columbian
followed the submarine throughout tho
| night, being guided by rockets, which
also were sent up from time to time
by the Columbian by order of the Ger
mans.
Ordered to Abandon Ship.
Toward 6 o'clock in the morning,
six American seamen manned boat
and went with petty officer to the
submarine to explain that it was an
American ship, but they were forced
to take on board German officer and
two sailors, and carried them to the
Columbian.
The Germans placed in the int rior
of the ship two bombs and in the
meantime the German officer ordered
Captain Curtis and his crew to :.ban-
don the ship and go aboard the Baltic,
which was standing by. There was
some disorder and excitement, but the
officer called out that there was plen-
ty of time and there was no need to

Columbian Is E:vtHn Up.
The crew, before they were allowed
to enter the boats, was examined and
deprived of arms and electric pocket
lamps, but was allowed to take small
part of it's baggage. Captain Curtis
was later required to go aboard the

Quantities of foodstuffs were taken
from the Columbian and put aboard
the undersea boat. When all this was
done, the fuses of the bombs were

Why Susie Was Afraid

Susie was the ring bearer at Aunt
Sues wedding. Aunt Sue lived at
grandmother's house, where mother
used to live before she was mar
ried.
They had rehearsal the night
before the wedding so that every
one would know where to stand
and what to do at the real wed
ding.
The minister stood i'm the bay
window and with him stood the
man that they said was tic lie Uncle
Will. Susie carried the two gold
rings on small white satin cush-
ion.
She walked slowly down the long
room, and stood at one side. AT
ter her came the bridesmaids, and
last of all came Aunt Sue.
Susie was very small to be a
ringbearer but she practiced so
carefully that they were sure she
would do we'll the next day.
When she was dressed for the
real wedding in her pretty white
dress and white hair ribbonsi her
mother said:
"You are not going to be afraid,
are you?"
mo, l am not going to be afraid
said Susie.
She was not afraid---not even

By proper cooking the cheaper
cuts of meat are as nutritious as
porterhouse steak and DIS appe-
tizing. If We wish to make soup
the meat should be put on i'm
cold water and allowed to heat
gradually. In this way large a.
mount of the juice is extra cted !,
and by long cooking the connective
tissues are softened and dissolved
which gives the soup an. appetite
ing flavor, but leaves the meat
almost tasteless.
By putting the meat in boiling
water, allowing lit to boil for a
few minutes, then lowering the
temperature and simmering until
done, the meat retains its flavor
but the soup is tasteless and i'm
sipid, for the boiling water coagu-
lates the outside juices which pre-
vents the inside juices from escap-
ing in the broth. Proper cooking
will develop natural flavor which
may be enriched by including vege-
tables and herbs with the meat.

would fowl lis very nourishing

butcher remove the gristle and
tough red part at the top. Wash
