JOY RIDE ON CAR FENDER.
Four Year Old Girl Rides From This
 City to Newington.

Climbing on the fender of Hart ford-bound car while it stopped to discharge passengers near her home, the four year old daughter of Hiding Anderson of 57 Jubilee street rode unnoticed almost to Elm Hill yester- day afternoon before discovered by Motorman Allen of Hartford. With her tiny hands clasped about the fender bars, she lay at full length on the iron cushion, maintained her position safely despite the speed and jolting of the car and seemed to enpoy the ride. Had she lost her hold. nothing but a miracle would have saved her from going under the wheels.

AMERICANS CLASH WITH HUNS.
Three Reported Killed, Five Wounded
and Twelve Captured.

Washington.-Armed forces under
the American flag have had their first
clash with German soldiers In an at
tack which the Germans made on first
line trenches where the United States
troops had been taken for instruction
and three Americans were killed, five
wounded and twelve captured or miss
ing.
The war department made this
known Sunday on receipt Of dispatch
from General Pershing showing that
the German forces, soon after learning
the position Of the new enemy from
overseas, had launched desperate ef-
fort to overcome them. The TeutOn
attack came in the form of heavy
barrage fire, which isolated O salient
of the American trench and apparent
ly left small force of Americans at
the mercy Of their enemies. That the
American soldiers fought gamely is
shown by Pershing's report Of a pris.
Oner being taken by them. How some
Of his troops escaped, bringing this
German back with them. is not told
in the brief dispatch Of the American
commander.
