They began digging the moment they sandwiched themselves between the blankets and quilts which Mr. Hart had purchased new for his last crew, and they dug and scratched and cursed all through the long night. ‘The next morning they told Hart something was wrong with his bloom- ing blankets. Hart investigated, and discovered that the 1. W. W. before quitting the premises had saturated all, the bed covering in the bunk house with condensed lye. Wherever it struck a bit of bare skin it burned. This particular bunch of I. W. W, was an enterprising lot. New blankets and quilts constituted their first de mand after getting on the job. Hart comnlied with their wishes. ‘The fol- lowing day they presented a menu, inciuaing many almost unobtainable dainties, which they declared must be served them. . When Hart informed them, it couldn’t be done they quit, and they did their best to make the nights hideous for, their successors, BRITISH ATTAGK PLACES ALLIES IN POSSESSION (Continued from Page One.) tain warning of impending attacks, and in every case the advancing lines of German infantry were destroyed by the concentrated fire from our rifles, machine guns dnd artillery. “The obstenacity with which the en- emy constantly repeated the attack only added to his losses without re- covering for him any of the valuable ground which we had won. No Counter Attacks. “Exhausted by his previous efforts, the enemy made no counter attacks during the night, and our troops were able to consolidate the positions un- disturbed. “Our own losses in the battle are light.

Webb Brothers SHOE DEPARTMENT STYLE dit DURABILITY Pioneer Army Leaving Bismarck a raw frontier) Frie outpost of a few hundred souls and returning to find it a metropolitan town fast forging city-ward, Col L. Mervin Maus, inedical corps, U. S. A., stopped off en route to California to- day to renew friendships begun 40 years ago. (olonel Maus has been detailed to the headquarters at San Francisco, where he will serve as chief surgeon of the western depart- ment, and he will spend in Bismarck and Mandan a few days of the short furlough which been granted him. ‘The colonel, as a young commission- ed officer of the medical corps, was assigned to old Fort Lincoln, below ‘Mandan, on the west side of the river, in’ 1877, one year following the Cus- ter massacre. Lismarck was then a village of 300 people. West of tha river there was hardly a human hab- itation until Miles City was reached. The Mandans, Arickaras and Gros Ventres had a village where Man- dan now stands, There was fine deer runting at the mouth of the Heart. with the rights of our citizens to sail the high scas--on Ships loaded with munitions for Great Britain.” Man Cries “Yellow.” Lafollette ut this point was depart- ing from his prepared speech which he was scheduled to deliver. A man in the gallery called out “Yellow.” “A man who yells that from atrowd, where he conceals his own identity is himself yellow,” Lafollette replied. Cheers came from the crowd and a few hisses. The crowd in the gallery from which the voice had come started to yell, “Throw him out.” The audience in the main floor of the auditorium rose. For a moment panic threatened, but Governor Fra- zier, A. C. Townley and others rushed forward and with Lafollette’s help or- der was restored. From this point on Lafollette made no attempt to follow his speech, and launched into a defense of his own at- titude. There were only minor inter- ruptions. The speaker went from this to a plea for a pay-as-we-go policy in financing the war. “Wars have always been financed after a struggle by wealth on the one hand, for the taxation method, and the people on the other, for the pay-as-we- go method,” he said, “and wealth. has generally triumphed. I pray God that after this Nonpartisan league gets un- der way, this won’t be the case.” PROMINENT MINOT WOMAN DROPS DEAD FUNERAL AT FORKS Minot, N. 1), Sept. 21.—Mrs. D. A.
