With the American Army in France,
Friday. Feb. S.-By the A. P.-The
Germans are using dogs in their
front lines to warn them of the ap-
proach of patrols opposite the Ameri

early this morning prevented one of
our patrols from executing a daring
stroke Two corporals who We're
concerned in it have been mentioned
in official reports for their spirit and

Accompanied by two privates the
corporals left a large patrol in Ger

mo Mans Land" last midnight ana
went on to the German lines. They
first found a smooth wire barrier
which had been shot to pieces by the
American fire. Fifteen yards further
on they came upon furthef> German
wire entanglements. The men were
inspecting an opening in the wire
when a dog apparently chained on the
other side began to bark. A dugout
door opened quickly in a trench and
a gruff voice was heard to say Ger

brilliant rocket went up and the
Americans threw themselves flat on
the ground just as a machine gun
began to spit bullets in their dfrec-

Being Bested.

With the French Armies in France,
Feb. By the Associated Press
The armies of the German Crown
Prince before Verdun since February
? have suffered costly defeats in
seven raids on French positions on
both side of the Meuse. Although
large bodies of troops were employed
at times, not a single permanent ad-
vantage has been gained. On Febru-
ary the Germans made three sepa-
rate assaults on the Caurieres wood,
but were hurled back with heavy
losses. North of Hill 344 on Febru-
airy 3, five German columns advanced
in thick fog after a heavy prelim-
mary bombardment, and succeeded in
entering the French front line mo-
mentarily. The enemy was driven
out in vigorous hand-to-hand fighting
and again suffered severely.
A Baden division, preceded by
shock units, assaulted the French
line at the same place on February 4.
They gained a footing in the trenches
for few moments and then were
chased off after useless sacrificing
many lives and leaving some prison
ers. On February in the vicinity of
Fosses Wood, another attack was
made at dawn after a short and sharp
artillery preparation by Hanoverian
troops and a relief division. They
succeeded in reaching the French
barbed wire and in occupying an ele-
ment of the French position.
They were driven out almost imme-
diately and pursued by the French
leaving many dead and a number of
