TELL STORIES IN BILLETS
Those Relieved From Duty Re-
late "First Sensations"
Colonel Had Thrill When Huns
Nearly Got His Range.

With the American Army in France,
Nov 2.-(By the Associated Press.)-
Some of the American soldiers who
just have been relieved after service
in the trenches had thrilling stories
to tell on returning to the billets. On
clear days especially, German snipers
became active. Bullets went singing
harmlessly overhead. American in
fantrymen were told off to attend to
any sniper who became active and
more than one of them Will snpe
Americans no more.
This game of sniping the sniper was
highly popular. The only complaint
heard today was that there was not
enough rifle shooting to satisfy the
infantrymen. Several of the soldiers
said they went out to fight but did
not get enough. There is no scarcity
of expert riflemen when sniper
starts in.
Colonel Got Thrill.
A colonel had an exciting expert
ence when the Germans nearly got the
range of an observation post in which
he and his aide were. They lost no
time in taking temporary cover.
The ARTILLERY on both sides was
rather more active during the last
days in which the first contingent OF
Americans was in the trenches. The
Germans shelled the back areas and
dppTOdcLeS, putting Siii
! explosives in the direction of the
trenches and battery positions Aside
from livening up things for while,
nothing wah accomplished by the
enemy.
The infantry in one section had
1uite a lively time for two nights.
The Germans, thinking a hostile pa
troll was near them. opened fire with
their rifles, at the point where the
opposing trenches are nearest. The
Americans let the Germans fire for d
time and then they themselves began
to fire.
Several German airplanes which
flew over the trenches were targets
for rifles and machine guns.
| The morale of the Americans is dis
| tinctly pleasing to the French. The
| troops marched out of the trenches
! in the dark, their wet and muddy

Italian Headquarters in Northern
Ttalv. Nov. 2.-The cavalry rear guard
continues to screen the movement of
the main body of the Italian army to
its newly chosen position and at the
same time to check the advance of the
enemy lines.
General Cadorna's bulletin last
night gives the first idea of where the
advance is making itself felt along the
hills connecting st. Daniele del Fruili,
the Tedra canal and PozZuolo del
Fruili, making a curved line some
miles west of the Isonzo river. Mill
tary necessity still restricts rigidly the
sending of details of the operation and
the mention of places but within these
close limits SOME general idea can be
given of the heroic resistance the
main part of the Italian army gave
to the rush of overwhelming num-
bers The greatest shock came on the
north where the Isonzo first was
crossed. Here occurred the weaken
ing of certain detachments of the sec
ond army which Cadorna had bulle-
tined with the frankness of a great
commander.
Huns Hit Weak Spot.
1t was this weakening which gave
the German contingents the oppor-
tunity at a crucial moment to pass
forward between a portion of the
army on the north and that on the
