though must of It was cut up by artil-
lery fire, but he must have jumped II,
for when looked up he was twenty
or thirty PAGES ahead Of me. We got
to the Germans about that time and
was pretty busy for a while. But
soon saw him again. He was pulling
his bayonet out of Boche when an
other made jab at him ard stuck him
in the arm. Then the Boche made a
swing at him with his rifle, but the
Swiss dropped on one knee and lodged
1t. He kept defending himself with
his rifle, but there was another Ger
man on him by this time and he could
not get up. The corporal Of our squad
came up just about that time, but he
was too late, because one of the
Boches got to the Swiss with his bay
onet. He did not have time to with
draw 1t before our corporal stuck him.
The other German made a pass at the
corporal, but he was too late. The
corporal beat him to 1t and felled him
with terrific blow from his rifle butt.
The Huns were pretty thick around
there just as another fellow and my
self came up. Boche swung his rifle
at the corporal and when he lodged 1t
the Boche almost got me. The swing
took him Off his feet and then the cor
poral did as pretty a bit of work as
ever saw. He jumped for the BOche.

with both feet and gave II to the next
one with his bayonet all at the same
time. He was the quickest man l ever
saw.
There were couple of well-known
savate men In the next company and
/ saw one Of them get uY .er Fritz's
guard with his foot and, Lelieve me,
there was some force In that kick.
He must have driven the Germans
chin clear through the back Of his
neck.
e We thought 1t was pretty tough luck
to lose both the chaplain anu the vii
lage wit In the same charge, along
with half Of our officers, and then have
to give up the trench. Every man in

CHAPTER VII.
Stopping the Huns at olxmude.

Stopping the Huns at Dixmude.
i was standing In a communication
trench that connected one of our 'front.'
line trenches with a crater caused by
the explosion Of mine. All around
me men of the third line we're coming
up, climbing around, digging, hammer
ing, shifting planks, moving sandbags
up and down, bringing up new tlmbers,
reels of barbed wire, ladders, cases OF
ammunition, machine guns, trench
mortars-all the things that make an
army look like general store on legs.
: The noise of the guns was just deaf
ening, Our own shells passed not far
above our heads, so close were the
enemy trenches, and the explosions
were so near ard so violent that when
you rested your rifle butt on something
solid, like a rock, you could feel II
shake and hum every time a shell
landed.
Our first line was just on the out
skirts Of the town, In trenches that
had been won and lost by both sides
many times. Our second line was In
the streets and the third line was
almost at the south end of the town.
The Huns were hard at 1t, Smelling
the battered remains of Dixmude, and
to the right stretcher bearers were
working In lines SO close that they
looked like two parades passing each
other. But the bearers from the COM
pany near me had not returned from
the emergency dressing station and
the wounded were piling up, waiting
for them.
A company Of the 2me Legion Etran-
gere had just come up to take their
stations In the crater, under the para
pet of sandbags., A shell landed among
them just before they entered the era
ter and sent almost whole squad
west, besides wounding several others.
Almost before they occupied the
crater the wires were laid and reached
back to us, and the order came for us
to remain where we were until further
orders.
Then we got the complete orders.
We were to make no noise but were all
to be ready In ten minutes. We put
on goggles and respirators. In ten
minutes the bombers were to leave the
trenches. Three mines were to ex-
plode and then we were to take and
hold a certain portion of the enemy
trenches not far or. We were all
ready to start up the ladders when
they moved Nig's section over to ours
and he sneaked up to me and whis-
pered behind his hand. BE a sport,

FISHERMEN ARE
TO
HAVE LICENSES
FOOD ADMINISTRATION SAYS
MUST BE SECURED NOT LATER
THAN FEBRUARY 18TH, UNDER
NEW PROCLAMATION.

All salt water fishermen must secure
licenses from the food adrninistra-
tion not later than February Il. under
the proclamation just issued BY the
administration. The ruling applies co
all salt water fishermen not already
licensed, whether fishing independent
ly or on shares and whether engaged
in the fishing industry regularly. or at
certain periods during the year
a copy of the proclamation which
was received yesterday by Frank f..
Welles, who represents the food adj
ministration division of FISH industry
in this territory, states that IL is not
intended to regulate the prices of fish
and sea food in the ishing districts.
but 10 increase the fish catches dur
ing the period of the war.
Representatives of the food admin
istration have been in the Pensacola
district for sometime, studying condi- :
tions pertaining TO the fishing indus
try here and investigating the possi-
bilities for greatly increased catches
Investigations have been conducted at
points on the Gulf and Atlantic coasts
and they will be the basis of regula-
tions soon to be enacted. 1t is stated
that the regulations will supersede the
local laws in districts which hamper
the fishermen and curtail catches by
prohibiting the use of the most pro-
ductive kinds of fish gear. 1t is also
quite possible that state laws pertain
ing to closed seasons on certain varie
ties of fish at times when they are
most abundant will be modified In
the enactment OF the regulations, due
regard will be given present restric-
tions which are essential to conserya-
ton of the future supply of fish.
The first step toward increasing
the fish catches will be the licensing
of those engaged in the industry.
There will be charge or fee in connec-
ton with the permits and in order that
application blanks may be easily
available, the wholesale fish trade will
be asked to distribute them among
the fishermen.
An important conference of fish pro :
ducers and members of the food ad-
ministration will be held in the near
future. whe the proposed regulations
for increasing fish catches will be dis
cussed.

STRIKERS AT SHIP
YARD BACK TO WORK


After being out on strike for several
days nearly a hundred employees OF
the Pensacola Shipbuilding Company.
at Bay Point, returned to work yes
terday morning after satisfactory ar
rangements were agreed upon between
their leaders and the owners of the
company.
The company is building submarine
chasers for the government and every
effort to settle the difficulty and re
sumo work, was made so that the
work OF the country would not suf-
fer.
The dispute between the strikers and
their employers was brought into the
federal court, and preliminary papers
were fled to permit ahearing. In the
absence of Judge William b. Sheppard,
who is presiding in the Southern Dis
trict Of Texas, Judge Robert Ervine,
of the federal district court for the
Southern District of Alabama had ar
ranged to come to Pensacola and hear
the case yesterday.
Upon settlement being made, how
ever, and the men returning to their
work, Judge Ervine did not come.

Washington. Jan. 22.-Col Roosevelt

steady stream of callers at the home
of his daughter. Mrs. Nicholas Long

The Colonel frankly said his pur-
pose in coming to the capitol now was
to help speed up the war and confer

claimed any purpose of replying to

what Senator stone says about me
than in what the president says about
Senator Chamberlain said Colonel
Roosevelt.
THE national motto at this time
should be tell the truth and speed up
the war
My purpose in coming here is to
help by any means in my power TO
render more speedy and more effective

though we have been at war nearly z
year, we haven't really entered into
