Just north of Broodseinde, at Daisy wood, the Germans held out strongly. The British surrounded the wood and a hot fight followed. The attackers pushed forward a’ considerable distance down the slopes of Broodeinde ridge to the lower: ground. At many places the British} and French have advanced to a depth! of 1,200 yards or more. The statement says: “At 5:20 o'clock this morning we again attacked on a wide front, east and northeast of Ypres, in conjunc- tion with our allies on our left. Re- ports indicate that satisfactory prog- | ress is Seing made on all parts of the battle front. The weather con- tinues stormy.” The British troops advanced on to Passchendaele ridge, and rested 1,000 yards southwest of the town of. Pas- schendaele. At 8:30 p. m. they had taken several hundred prisoners, and were some 1,500 yards beyend their original front line. The British met strong “esisiance at Polderhoek chateau, which they reach- ed early in the advance. They were forced back & little by hzavy mechine gun fire. At the time of the latest reports they had again pushed for-! ward. The latest meager report says the Germans are counter attacking heav- ily astride the Ypres-Roulers railway. | The British were sending back large , numbers of prisoners at an early: hour. « The combined attack of the British and French met with great success in the first few hours of fight- You Get Better Cough syrup b wariae t it at What's more, you save about $2 by : it, Easily made and costs little. 29000 O9$900466004000000060 You'll never really know what, 2 fine; cough syrup you can make until you! repare this famous home-made remedy, You not only save $2 as compared with the ready-made kind, but; you will also j have a ‘more effective and dependable ! remedy in every way, It over the usual coughs, throat and chest q q quickly.

The coming of the office boy in Eng- land has often been a subject for com- ment since the outbreak of the war. Slowly but surely he has mounted in | importance, taking the place of one clerk after another, until his horizon today is only boundéd, and that not at all certainly, by the boss’ office. A re- cent writer relates the following inci- dent, which shows the office boy's prog- ress: Both the principals were out, and the office boy explained this fact to a gentleman who called. Observing with sympathy, however, the gentle- man's discomfiture at their absence, he suddenly drew forth his watch and | encouragingly added: “But one or the other of ’em’s bound to be here in ten | minutes, because it'll be my dinner ; hour.”—Christian Science Monitor. s Seeds Make Good Fuel. | Hundreds of tons of peach and apri- cot Seeds, which have been thrown away every season heretofore by the 'eanning factories in the great fruit | districts of California, are now sold as | fuel and bring 0 a ton retail. For- merly the seeds hard for fuel, but recently it was found that when heated in a_ stove | burning hard coal they soon pop open | !and ignite, after which they burn with an intense “glow like that of anthra: cite, and are. practically smokeless, besides holding a fire well.—Popular | Mechanics Magazine, ; that all of} were considered too | BAILROAD BOARD TRY PUBLICITY FOR RAILWAYS Hopes to Procure Through Press It Is Powerless to Demand Drive Concessions CREAM TRANSFER RATE IS UNDER ADVISEMENT F. C. Helstrom, secretary of the North Dakota defense council, yester- day attended an informal conference with the railway commission on the coal question, and it was agreed that a. program of publicity should. be adopted in an effort to perguade the| railway companies to immediately in- stall reduced rates which can be ord-| ered in by the interstate commerce] commiission only after months of de-| lay, and when it will be too late to! help: dorigumers who must get their coal within the next two months. ‘he commission is considering not only the question of bringing in Wy- oming coal at reasonable rates oj supply sections of the state which cannot use lignite, but is endeavoring to stimulate action on the construc- ition of spur tracks to lignite mines whose production is greatly reduced by the lack of reasonable shipping facilities. In many cases applications for spur tracks have been pending for a year or more, but construction | has ‘been délayed by the railway com- panies for one reason or another.

A. Davis of the Western, C. 'H. Quirmdach of the Great Northern | Express Co., and J. L. Burnham, as- |sistant general freight agent of the Northern Pacilic, have returned to jthe Twin Cities after attending a hearing before the state railway} commission. ‘The express company representatives appeared in connec- tion with the Grand Forks creamer- ies’ petition for a reduction -in trans- fer rates at Ardoch and Forest River, a matter which the commission took | under advisement. Mr. Burnham was here in connection with problems con- tronting North Dakota railways rela- tive to the transportation of fuel. The commission took adverse ac- tion on a petition of citizens four miles west of Medina for a new cross- ing over the Northern Pacific tracks, and ordered the !Medina telephone company to make repairs to its line necessitated. in the interests of good service.

' GOUPLE POSED ARE USED TO CONVICT Picture postcards for which the de- fendants posed convicted Elmer and Wen Shaw, husband and wife, of solomy in district court yesterday, and thé couple w sentenced to a year in the Bismarck penitentiary. The pair were arrested on charges of re- ceiving stolen goods, and amongst a collection of jewelry and trinkets which had leen extracted from local hotels found in their trunks were dis- covered the damning picture post- cards. Shaw is suspected of having perpetrated numerous burglaries which have been reported in Bis- marck during the last two months. A complete outfit answering the de- scription given by a Bismarck wom- an who apprehended the ‘burglar in the act of rifling her desk was found in Shaw’s description. The wife, don- ning male garb, had accompanied her husband about the country, riding with him on freight trains and shar- ing his I. W. W. companions. Upon completion of their present sentence, they will be arraigned for receiving stolen goods, and Shaw probably will {be charged with burglary. See Ethel Barrymore at the Orph- eum tonight.
