KEEPING TOUL SECTOR BUSY
 BY COMMANDMENT
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1


 WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, March 26.-(By the Associ- ated Press)-The American artillery continues to heavily shell towns held by the Germans and German batteries opposite the Foul sector with gas. The Germans themselves have reciprocated in kind, but the doses of gas sent against them by the Americans have been twice as large as they have re- ceived. The town of Richecourt, north of Xivray, one of the targets of the Americans, has been abandoned, so far as American patrols which reconnoit- cred near the town were able to deter mine.
 Americans Keep Hun Busy
 The American artillery also is keep ing up stream of other shells on en- emy positions in this region. St. Baus- sant. northeast of Richecourt has been heavily shelled with high explosive projectiles, while German first line trenches repeatedly have been hit and levelled and enemy dugouts and snip rs' posts completelp silenced.
 Fritz" or Billy Boche,'' as the American doughbolys are beginning to call the Germans, is a persistent sniper on this sector. As fast as the Americans silence one nest another starts the an- noyance, and then the job has to be done all over again.
 German Nest Bombarded
 This forenoon a group of American snipers discovered an enemy nest close by and promptly opened fire on ir. The Germans replied with their rifles and then fired about three dozens or SO grenades. Apparently. the Germans had come to stay and did not intend to be chased out. One of the American 37 millimetre gun teams then got into ac- ton against the nest, and owing to it's accurate fire no more Germans were seen at this particular point and there was no further annoyance.
 A number of these same little guns obtained direct hits in enemy commun- icating trenches while men, possibly lContinucd on Page THnl

LONDON, March 26.-An official statement of aerial operations tonight says.
 "On Monday our airplanes were em- ployed almost entirely in bombing the enemy's troops and transport massed in the areas behind the battle front and in attacking them with machine gun fire from low heights. Twenty two tons of bombs were dropped in this work and over 100000 rounds were fired from the machine guns.
 "All our pilots reported that the ground targets offered by the enemy surpassed description. They were able to drop their bombs with accuracy and fire with effect right into the center of infantry battalions in close forma- tion and into columns of cavalry and transport.
 "A certain amount of fighting in the air took place. but it was less intense than on the previous day. Thirteen hostile airnla nos were brought down

 AMSTERDAM, March 26-The vorwaerts under date of March 25 says:
 "WhiIe the fighting at present is incIining in Germany's favor, nevertheless, after this fight we shall neither be in position, nor shall we have the moral right to treat the enemy on the principle of hands on the throat and knees on the breast
 "The necessity for political un derstanding lies behind even the greatest military decision. Such an understanding, however, will be all the easier for us once the poison clouds of war lies have disappeared. After this war the German people can only live as a peaceful, self governinu nation"

 COPENHAGEN, March 26.-The correspondent of the Berlin vor- waerts, at the French front, reports that the German emperor with his staff now is at St. Quentin.

THE RETURN 10 OKALOOCHE,

1.-TWO years before the opening Of
this story Bill Lewis had left the
town Of Okalooche because the
citizens had ordered him to leave or
ride out on a rail. Bill Lewis was
a negro who never but once in his
life had worked more than Is min
utes at one lick and that was at fish
ing for gudgeons-
When Bill left town his clothes
were rags. When he returned he
wore the gaudiest of clothing and his
pockets were so filled with coins that
when he walked the coins jingled and
clinked like a worn out flivVer
Bill strutted through the town. went
to the hotel and bought all of his old
pals drink and acted in such a mil
honairish manner that the whole
know whether he had become bank
robber, for no man could honestly
have become possessed of so much
wealth. Finally Bill met Miss Matilda.
an old time sweetheart
Foe de Ian sakei" Matilda ex-
claimed, 'Wherefo you done git all

-Jes ch'ally, jes materially" re-
sponded Bill, as he leaned against
the fence and lighted a cigar that
never cost a cent less than three for
a nickel
"Je materially. You see, Miss Ma

Matilda had listened open mouthed.
She was willing to believe almost any
thing after seeing those clothes and
hearing the jingle Of that money, but
this lions mouth business was
stretching the limit.
