FRENCH FRONT, June 2O--somc of
the most dashing acts of heroism Of

with the capture and holding, in spite
Of desperate German resistance, by the
French Colonial troops, Of the farm Of

watched the whole of the fighting in
this vicinity, later came into touch
with many officers and men who had
distinguished themselves there. and
heard from them stories of the series
Of actions, details of which were not
obtainable in the thick of the engage
ments.
Hurtebise farm, now as in 1914
when Butcher was turned out of It by
Marshals Ney and Drouot under the
eyes of Napoleon, is in reality the key.

The Germans had decided TO hold
il at any cost, and they had construct
ed most skilfulN system of defensive
works, consisting of deep fields of
barbed wire acknowledgements, trenches
and shelters, In which were disposed
dozens of machine guns. Notwithstand'
ing all the difficulties of the task the
colonial infantry, which formerly was
the Franch Marine Infantry Corps,
stormed the position and took 1t on
the morning Of April 10.
1t was foreseen that the Germans
would make an attempt to regain the
position, so valuable to them, and dur,
ing the night Of April H. n regiment
Of Zouaves was sent up TO relieve the
colonials, who we're exhausted and had
suffered much from exposure, after the
fight, to cold winds and heavy snow
and rain. g..
Two battalions of the Zouavcs were
deployed to the right and left of where
the farm had once stood and on each
side of the ruins of the monument com.
memorating the Napoleon battle. They
lay in the demolished German trenches
and In shell holes with bodies of dead
soldiers all about them, and as they lay
they scraped up the earth with their
entertainment Implements so as to form
some sort of defence. A third battalion
was held in reserve.
In front of the ZOuaves was stretch
of ground interspersed with deep cav.
ems and wooded ravines, which de-.

and the banks of the river Ailette. -.
Here for seven days the Zouaves

Watt will be in the hurdles, 100

A decrease Of half million gross

Of Honolulu win be shown, it is be.
licved in the annual report Of Captain
William r. Fosttr, harbormastcr, to.
morrow, after the figures for June have
been totalled and added to the year g
statistics.
This drop is one of the largest recent
ly on record. and is due in part, II is
believed, to a falling off in vessels
coming here for bunker coal recently,
in part TO several dull months, and in
part Of the fact that the previous year s
figures are exceptionally high.
Up to the first of June the total
yfross tonnage entering Honolulu har-
Dor amounted to 2.s59,662 representing
J67 vessels, Providing that quarter
of million tons entered port during
June, which would be above the aver
age for the year, the total would

mark, or seven hundred thousand gross
ons less than the year before.

raft to every five steam vessels. These
igures of course, refer to deep sea
'hipping only, and not TO interisland
raiders. And, as before noted, they are
Inly for eleven months.
For the twelve months Of the previ-

The line was very uneven, some Of
the sections of Zouaves having ad.
vanced further than their comrades,
and often islets Of Germans held out
and pestered the French troops from
the TANKS. Progress had to be made
from shell-hole to ishell-hole until, even.
tually, the Zouaves, by capturing the
German Dusseldorf trench, were able
to command an advantageous position
and straighten and solidify their line.
Even then the Germans did not give
up hope, and April % opened strong
eounter-attack, for which the First
Regiment Of the Prussian Guard was
brought specially into line. The left of
the French line held firm, but the right
gave way slightly, and French ,coun.
tcr'attack had later to be carried out to
regain the ground lost. .....
Some OF the men of an Algerian tir.
ailleur battalion had been almost cut
OF, but they were relieved by the
Zouaves and other battalions and some
of the Prussian guard were taken
prisoners AVS ..,..
One Zouave, who in peace times Is a
coufectioner, while making his way
across the sieve-like ground fell among
patrol Of Prussian guardsmen and
was captured. He did not lose his wits
although some of his captors treated
him with the greatest brutality. He
was ordered TO the rear through com
munication trench and was accompan
led in that direction by a number Of
guardsmen. His captors, who had come
on the'scene only that morning, soon
lost their way in the maze of twisting
trenches and virtually left it to theii
prisoner to show them the way.
Suddenly an idea of tricking then
struck him and instead of turning t.
the right he turned to the left and soor
he and his captors found themselye-
looking into the muzzles of Zouavt
rifles. The prisoner shouted, "Fire, my

ground and seized an bandoned rifle
with which he killed one Of his captors
