FRENCH CROSS AILETTE IN SMASHING ADVANCE (Continued from Page 1) reached the Ailette River. French military men say this makes the early fall of Noyon inevitable. PARIS, Aug. 22.—General Byng’s army is desperate resistance in the region of Bapume. Achiet-le-Grand changed hands several times late yester- day and last night. The British are now in that position.

AUSTRALIAN PEST 13 TURNED 10 BIG PROFIT WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.—Rab- bits, which were once the curse of Australia, as they have been to a lesser extent in the Southwestern section of the United States, now are providing a profitable source of rev- fenue and at the same time ave help- {ng to win the war by increasing food supply. Official dispatches received here say the British Board of ‘lrade has ordered 600,000 crates of skinned rabbits, which will require the kill- ing of 21,600,000 rabbits weishing 86,000,000 pounds after di ing. ) \Préviously the rabbits .ere shipped with the skins on, but inconvenience was expernenced at hospitals in Eng- |jiand in removing the fur.

(By Mail.)—The war has/| converted this port into a huge ship hospital. It is the haven of torpedoed, mined and disabled vessels, and is equipped with the best ship “surgeons” and “nurses” in the United Kingdom. Here ships the Hun has torpedoed and reported as sunk are given a new lease of life and sent out again -to sea. It is estimated that hundreds of thousands of tons of shipping and tens of millions of dollars worth of cargo are saved as_a result of the work of that part of the British ad- miralty known as the salvage section. Passing out to sea on one of the crack salvage boats the United Press correspondent observed more than a score of torpedoed transports and steamers. Most of them were British but sprinkled here and there were a few American and Portuguese ships. Some of them had been torpedoed twice. One formerly a German liner, but taken over by the United States efter war was declared, was tor- pedoed in the same spot on each side. Another ship had been shot in two, but both parts were brought in by salvage boats and the ship eventually will be sent to sea again. DIVERS PATCH SHIPS Another ship which had a huge hole on one side and fourteen holes made by splinters when the torpedo struck, was undergoing repairs. Two divers were at work along- side the boat. They signalled for the lowering of the “patch” and it was dropped down to them. A “patch” is a number of wooden beams fast- ened together to cover the hole made by the torpedo. Pumps were set to work emptying the water-filled hold When the ship was able to float she, put out under her own steam to go! ing first will have the choice of pq | : eae ; ‘ an & riced at ...... lhéars, 508 South Center: PRORRTAIT: Mondell Resigned from the Senatorial Race to Permit the “Draft- P SMM PE pe ae 8 I — 636--M.—Adv. 8-20-5t ing” of Senator Warren.

Finally they managed to beach the British ship. | The smoke for a time prevented ap- prosch to the Jennings. When it} finally cleared, the heat prevented approach. Finally destroyers were | hroveht un and several score of shots fired into her. Forty holes were made | in the hull, and she sank just far enough to put out the blaze. The Jennings was then beached and -the remainder of the oil removed by rumps, It is estimated the value of the cargo removed from the Jennings was $10,000,000. The Jennings has been repaired and now is ready for sea. The British vesse) is still sub- merged, but she is expected to be floated soon. Close to 1,000,000 dol- lors worth of cargo is being remove from her. We believe in certain things because we know from past experience that we can trust and depend upon them.
