U. S. TROOPS WIN
lAURELs IN FIGHT
Cover Themselves With Glory
In Raid On Trenches By
Germans.

WIN tIiC- H<nEhlSHN ANN
IN FRANCE. Nov ll.-Complete
details and verified reports of the re-
cent German trench raid show that
the American troops on that occasion
set an example for courage and valor
unexcelled. The officer who had
charge of verifying the accounts of
the raid said to the correspondent
yesterday.
81 am proud to say that our men
engaged in the fight did everything
within their power. They jumped
into the fight and stuck to it. In the
first place, the troops had been in
the trenches less than three hours
when the barrage fire Of the Ger
mans began. They had marched
good part of the previous night and
we're tired Some o. them were al
lowed TO go to sleep in a dugout
twenty-five feet underground.
"When the barrage began these
men did not hear the racket II is
apparent that the fight they knew of
was when the Germans started
throwing grenades down upon them.
1t was these men who eyre taken
prisoners, but they fought well, ven
when surprised that wav. for The
stairs of the dugouts were covered
with blood. especially the top half,
showing that the Germans there
must have been hit. The entrance
to the dugout also gave indications
of close. hard hand-to- hand fgh lag.
"From the dugout through the
trenches and over the top through
the barbed wire and we'll out into No
Mans Land there was a wtde red
trail. How much of it was Amn 1
and how much German blood is not
known.
"There is a corpora! now in the
hospital back of the lines who Aid n
good job. He was in the fst"ring
post when the barrage began. D,
ing the firing an officer made his
way through the shells. Cod knows
how, and yelled to the corporal to go
into the dugout.
"The corporal saw the officer lips
moving. but did not understand the
command, and remained at his post.
At the end of the barrage he saw
Germans ell around him. five being
right in front of him. He took care
full aim and fired three shots. and
three of the enemy We're seen to fall.
Then a hand grenade fragment en-
tered the corporal's back and put him
out of action.
Investigation shows that all the
American telephone wires between
the observation posts and trenches
and batteries Mt the rear We're cut
by fragments Of German shells.
which numbered approximately fifty
thousand. The, German crossing No
Mans Land rolled up telephone wires
behind them, and set up a small field
American barbed wire. with branch
lines running to at least three points,
while the raid was in progress. TO d.

Memorial Day Exercises.

The executive committee and the
other committees of the Home Guard,
together with other citizens held a
meeting Wednesday at which it was
unanimously agreed that Decoration
Day should be properly observed at
Orofino this year. President Smith
was authorized to appoint a general
committee of arrangements, which
committee will appoint the necessary
committees.
The genera, committee consistsl of
c. A. Fisher, j. w. Merrill, =. H.
Blake, w. A. Shaw and John Oud,
and everyone is requested to enter
heartily into this observance and to
lend assistance in making it a fitting
one for this occasion. The Grand
Army has now almost disappeared !;
only few are here today, the rem
nant of an army that rendered valiant
service in behalf of noble cause.
The love, veneration and respect we
owe them demand that we fitiingingly
observe and hallow the day set apart
in honor of our patriotic dead. 1t is
fitting that we decorated with flags
and flowers the graves they have hal
lowed. Especially is it fitting that
we impress upon all that our country
is not ungrateful to its soldiers.

ioyment OF the day. Following q
few words and a little routine bus

combination was one of the most de
lightfuI numbers on the program. A

heir country, their soldiers, their
wives and children
This talk was eagerly listened to
