How Shell Shock Shows

AAOW oHCu DuOCh OlUWS From Shell Shock" by M. Allen Starr, M- D., in the Scribner
 The way in which shell chock manifests itself varies greatly in different individ. uals, so that it is not possible to give a description which covers every case.
 Sometimes these symptoms are chiefly mental The man suddenly loses his courage, breaks into a cold sweat and cannot think or act. He becomes dazed, does not obey orders, feels sleepy, and then in a semi-conscious condition wan ders off, not knowing where he is. If questioned he can give no account of himself, does not know his name or his regiment, has no memory of the past, and when taken back to a hospital does no. remember any of the past events of his life. Shown pictures of his family or letters from his wife, he does not recognize them, and thus for weeks hef may remain in this state of double con-a sciousness-as it is called--or amnesia, inca pablo of any mental or physical ac- tivity. Such cases-not unknown in civil life, but exceedingly rare-are very com-z mon among these shell shock patients. and may last for months after they have been sent home.
 Sometimes the mental state is not one oe obscured consciousness, but rather of excitement. The mind is continually on the qui yive for sights and sounds. Thee man starts and runs automatically at any noise, jumps or witches like one with St. Vitus dance, or trembles like one with shaking palsy. Such a man cannot sleep, or, if he does, wakes sud- denly with dreams or visions of horrid sights and sounds-starts up in tremble, with every sign of intense alarm, and in semi-consciousness state fights all who try to calm or restrain him. He may have vivid hallucinations, seeing the sights of trench or battle just as if they were going on about him, and manifest ing all the emotional effects which these sights would ordinarily awaken. A Cam adian who had suffered thus, and had apparently recovered, was standing on city hall steps at recent parade when an automobile tire suddenly burst with sound like gun. He immediately lost all control of himself-ran shouting through the crowd-fought the police who tried to restrain hinl-was in state Of intense excitement which could not be quieted, trembled like a leaf, and panted as if exhausted, and not for four hours did he come back to his normal state Of mind-and then he had no memory Of what had occurred.

 No Military Damage.
 Naval patrols on the coast are as effective as can be, MT. Daniels de- clared, saying that it is impossible for them to be everywhere. Thus far the raiders have done no military damage, the secretary said, and the navy is carrying out successfully it's para mount duty of safely conveying Am erican troops overseas.
 The Submarine Toll.
 Since they began operations July IS in the second raid in American waters since this country entered the war, the submarines have accounted for 31 vessels, of which all except three have been destroyed in England and Canadian waters.

 No. Serious Result From Gas.
 Wilmington, N. C., Aug. 12.-Tnfor- nation from the coast guard station on Smiths Island, at the mouth of the ! Cape Fear River, tonight is that none 1 of the victims of the gas there on | Saturday afternoon suffered serious | injury. Those who suffered at the | lighthouse are understood to have been the keeper, Captain Charles l Swann, his wife and one other, com posing the entire crew of the light l house, while three of the coast guards at the life saving station also suffer | ed A brood of chickens on the re- servation was killed and animals
 on the place showed signs of the gas. + Official Report
 The announcement made by the navy department said:
 :The navy, department has received a despatch from the con1mandant of the Sixth Naval District, Charleston. :, C., stating that an attack with gas was attempted on the North Carolina coast about five o'clock Saturday af- ternoon with the result Of temporarily
 putting out of business the coast guard station and lighthouse person. nel The report goes on to say: FIoated With Tide. "'About forty minutes after the at- l tack three large oil spots each over enc acre in extent, were observed
 passing by Smith Island to the north. This oil from which the gas was no doubt generated must ehave been re- leased. from a submarine in the vicin- ity of the entrance to the channel with the hope that it would come in , with the tide. but the tide fortunately set along the island.
 Matter Will Be Investigated.
 "Report was made to Colonel Chase,
 coast artillery corps, Fort CaseweH f N. C.. by Captain Willard of the Smith Island coast guard after the effects of
 the gas were noted. Six men were , gassed. No deaths. The gas had the f effect of mustard Eas and was effec- ' tive about 96 or 40 minutes. Color I of the gas has not yet been ascertain- ed and its effect on trees and shrub ' bery not yet determined. The entire
 matter will be investigated and re- t port made
 c The incident was reported by Col s onel Chase to the naval district com : rnandant. Smiths Island is off the f mouth of the Cape Fear River near e the entrance of the channel to Will |. mington, N. e.

ChauInes, Rove and Noyon, the pass age of which by the allies seriously would menace all the German forces inside the pocket formed by the Somme on the north and east and the Disc on the sosIth. Not alone are the allies endeaVoring to press their ad- vantage by frontal attacks, but they have drawn up to their back lines of medium and heavy calibres and with these they are heavily smelling the areas held by the Germans, even as far back as BethencoIrt. which lies on the Somme seven and .half miles east of Chaulnes. Meantime allied airplanes continue to bomb German positions and to use machine guns from low attitudes on troop fOrma- dons.
 Advance of French Troops.
 Seemingly the advances by the French troops on the southern part of line cannot but have an extremely important effect on the present bat
 tie. The hill positions they have gain ed not alone dominate the Disc val ley running northwestward to Noyon
 but around Lassigny also give them a sweep of the plains south of Rove
 Aside from the Aniens- -Montdidier sector, little fighting has taken place
 on any of the fronts.
 Courier Attacks Failed. Along the Vesle the Germans again
 have delivered violent counter attacks against the Americans and French who are holding ground on the north
 bank of the stream. As on previous occasions when the enemy attempted to dislodge the allied troops, the coun-
 ter attacks failed.
 German Aircraft Downed. British aircraft have brought down
 German airship off the coast of Hol- land. according to an announcement 1 by the British admiralty. An unoffi- ! cial report announces that a Zeppelin
 of the largest and newest type has
 been brought down off the English ] east coast.
