AMERICANS ANNOY HUNS.
Germans Ask for Cessation of Blast
ing Activities.

With the American Forces on the
Meuse, Nov. Ia Blasting by Amer
lean engineers in road repairing de-
tachment caused the German high
command to send a message to the
Allies contending that the Americans
had not ceased h.ostilities on Novem-
Der H.
The message sent by wireless to
the Allied high command was timed
2 p. III. and read:
'"On the front of Stenay- Beaumont,
along the Meuse, Americans continue
despite the conclusion Of armistice.
Please order the stopping Of hostil-
tiles"
The American reply to the German
message read as follows:
Received your radio. Orders
activities signalled on the Stenay
Beaumont front to cease Immediate
ly."
So the engineers did not blast dur
ing the remainder of Monday after
noon. Early this morning, however,
they resumed their blasting.
The engineers are repairing a road
way in the region of Stenay. They
rushed to a quarry Immediately after
the armistice conditions became effec-
i've, not thinking their blasting would
attract attention. The explosions to-
day did not bring any message from
the Germans,so the engineers blasted
with much energy, endeavoring to
make up for the lost time.

How the union jack was ably de-
tended by an Irishwoman in the streets
OF Paris on July is amusingly told {:
Outside one Of the biggest drapery
shops Of Paris two ladies handled a
union jack which lay On great pile Of
flags for sale and remarked in French
on It's cheapness. The salesman, un.
skilled in accents, was rash enough to
explain the low price by saying that
the union jack wasn't In season. He
received In reply the most eloquent
discourse attainable by an Indignant
lr!shwoman Of unblemished loyalty !;
and an Irish brogue speaking French
Is an engine Of war Before which the
most intrepid must quail. There is
one Frenchman who will never again
suggest that there Is close season
