FEAT OF FIGHTING AMERICANS
Two New Workers Capture Ninety-six
Huns at St. Juvin.

Paris.--A husky young lrish-Aineri-

man of the New York World, and q
German Hebrew-American named Rap
port, cleaned up the principal street in
st. Juvin Gust north of the Aire,
twelve miles west of the Meuse) single
handed, overcoming stiff enemy resis-
lance with. their bayonets and goodly
supply of grenades. :.
McLenahan worked his way forward
along one side of the street, and Rap
port on the other. Heavy snipins from
a window forced McLenahan to cease
operations and seek cover, whereupon
Rapport crept to the window and plas-
tered Il grenade through ii.
A German on-commissioned officer,
followed by ninety-five other Germans,
emerged with upifted hands shouting
"kamerad."
The two New Workers proudly

TO COMBAT PLAGUE OF RATS
Buildings Must Be Constructed That
viii Exclude the Pests From.
Shelter and Food.

single rat, remarks David r. Lantz,
States department Of agriculture, does
far less harm in d year than any one
lion, tiger or wolf but the big animals
OF prey are few, while rats are deplor-
ably abundant There are possibly two
or three times as many rats as there
are people in the civilized world and
the destruction wrought by this vast
horde Of voraeious rodents is far great
er than that wrought by wQlyes, tigers
and all other n0xious animals to-
gether.
To combat this dangerous pest sue
cessfully, says Lantz, Is largely build
Ing problem. Buildings should be so
constructed as to exclude the animals
from shelter and food, When this Is
done, individual and community efforts
to destroy rats will give satisfactory
and lasting results. The program may
be regarded by many as too expensive.
VIII 1t be too costly? What do rats
cost now? If half the money now
spent In feeding and fighting rats could
be expended In wisely planned and
well-executed cooperative efforts for
rat repression, 1t would be possible
within few years nearly to rid the
country Of its worst animal pest, to re-
duce losses from its depredations by
at least 80 per cent, and to free the
!nnd completely from the fear Of bu-
bonic plague.

RETREAT Of ENEMY
MAY BECOME R0UT
GERMANS COMPELLED TO ADAM.
DON ENTIRE BELGIAN COAST
AND ARE FALLING BACK.
Terrific Attacks of Americans and
French in South Places Whole
German Army in Jeopardy Un-
less They Can Be Stopped.

Paris.-The last week has brought
further reverses for the Huns. The
Germans have been compelled to aban-
don the entire Belgian coast, and are
said to be eyacuating Brussels, tie
capital of the invaded country. Lille,
the greatest manufacturing city in
northern France, together with numer-
<ous other important points has been
taken by the British The American
troops have captured Grand Pre-.
French cavalrymen are reported in the
outskirts of Client. The British and
Belgians in the north and the French
and Americans further south are still
launching terrific attacks, but the
poilus and Yankees are meeting with
more resistance than the Tommies and
Belgians for the reason that if the for
mer break through the whole German
army will be placed in jeopardy. The
present situation is serious, and it
seems probable that Ludendorff is at
tempting to withdraw his forces to Il
new line of defense without having
the retreat turned into n rout, an ever
present danger.
The presence of Il new American
army in the field under command of
Major General Billiard, recently in
command of the Second corps of the
First army, indicates that IL is the
purpose of General Foch to pursue his
advantage and keep the Germans on
the run until they surrender or at
teast as long as the weather lasts.
During the week the Serbians have
driven the enemy out of Nish and are
continuing their advance. The British,
French and Greeks have also been Ell
gagged in the same theater of war, and
have been successful in their opera
lions. The Italians have captured the
Albanian port of DurazzO after iniiict-
ing severe punishment upon the Aus
TRANS and capturing many prisoners
and much war material In the mean
time, General Allenby has been active
in Palestine. British cavalry has adj
vanced far to the north and northwest
of Damascus, arfti has reached Tripoii,
near the Mediterranean coast, forty
five miles north of Beirut, and HONS,
eighty-five miles north of Damascus.
The Ottoman forces now face the dan
ger of being caught and crushed be-
tween General Allenby's armies, as
they were in the early days of the Of
fensive north of Jerusalem TURKEYS
surrender is expected most any day.
