harmlessly on the parapet, 3,s
The gas bombardment that preceded
the advance of the enemy began at
12:40 o'clock this morning. The Ger

inch projectors to replace those that
had been destroyed by the American
guns Monday night and mustard,

of slight gassing and were harboring
a large grudge against the enemy on
this account
When the gas shells began to fall
there was hardly any wind. making
it certain that the fumes would remain
in the localities where the Germans
placed them. and the men in the
American trenches hoped the enemy
would follow up the shelling with an
infantry attack. 49, s.
The hopes Of the resentful defend
ers were fully realized and the result
completely satisfied the Americans,
for in one trench at daybreak this
morning lay the nine dead Germans
who perished in the bayonet attack,
while to the east where the men In
the trenches had gone to work with
their machine guns. the ground was
dotted with gray clad bodies.
Many of the machine gunners, still
wearing their gas masks, stuck to
their guns throughout the preliminary
bombardment and when they saw the
advancing forms of the Germans just
outside the American wire they cut
loose with their fire.

TEA Is NOT A
FOOD SAY THE
BRITISH OFFICIALS

London, May 3o.-Tea is not a
food within the meaning Of the British
food controllers order against hoard
ing, according to a decision handed
down by the Kings Bench division of
the high court of justice.
The case under review was that Of
a woman who had been fined $3.50
for accommodating .122 pounds Of Eng
lands favorite beverage. The con-
troller's anti-hoarding order reads:
For the purpose Of this order the ex-
preston article of food shall include
every article which is used for food
by man, or which ordinarily enters in
to the composition or preparation of
human food"
Tho court said: Unless tea could
be got within the word food it could
not come within the prohibition. The
appellant acquired dry tea leaves No
body eats tea leaves. So that what she
ate was something different from what
she bought. If she had acquired a
drink there would have been no prose-
cution. It would be straining the order
to say that the word food includes
