capped the attention of the ubiquitous
Archie. The shoot was progressing
satisfactorily. and our battery would
soon be all ranged. Our engine had
been running very badly, and had the
shoot been less important we should
have returned home; but the target
was a special Hun bridge. and the bat
terry was shooting excellently.

Suddenly smell of burning wood
reached my nostrils. Looking down,

biackened and smoldering. The en-

Quite Wild Affair.
