There was big furry among the
members Of the New Jersey Methodist
Episcopal Conference this morning when
the all important assignments to
churches for the year were made at the
final meeting of the cighty-second an
uual sessions IN the st. Paul church
There has been more talk and rumors
about changes in pulpits than ever be
fore az the result OF the pulpitS vacated

service at many of the most important
charges. There We're several surprises

IG GUNS ROAR
\ ON BRITISH LINE
terrific Artillery Duel
Rages All Along Line in
Flanders and France
RAID NEAR ST. QUENTIN

tftf London, March II.
= German and British artillery is en-
UAging IN n terrific duel all along the
.Brftish lines, dispatches received from
the front today stated. In a number oil
sectors the Boche gunners are deluglng
the British trenches with hail of shells
from guns of all calibers British artil-
lery is effectively retsliating against
the Germaq batteries, the dispatch con-
o.udes.
British troops conducted successful
raid last night south Of St Quentin.
Field Marshal Haig reported today. They
Killed several Of the enemy, took two
prisoners and some machine guns.
Northwest OF La Bassee an approach
Ing party OF the enemy was driven off
~ artillery and machine.gun fire.
3 The Passchendaele sector was the
scene OF considerable artillery fighting.
Following the sharp engagement there
last week. The Germans appear sur
sprised at the completeness of their de-
feat thereabouts. Despite attacks at
points along wide front and rapid
attacks against two points at the en-
treme limits Of the bombardment area
they failed to gain a single advantage.
With the exception OF intense air ac-
tivity, gun duels, patrol encounters and
trench raids, the situation Is unchanged
but all are eXpectant.
From one end of the front to the other
the Allies hold high ground, with ex-
cellent points of vantage for observation
OF the German positions. This probably
& explains the enemy's determined local
attacks. of which those In the Passchen-
daele salient were among the most
stubborn.
Field Marshal IIindenburg demands
that his troops seize territory fol
sround-observation posts, AS the Allied
planes are mailing sky-spyng preca'
rious. Likewise from the British lines
but little. movement behind the German
pdsitions escaped being spotted. The
Britishers are prepared for all eventu
njities.
