Redding, Cal, May 24.—Their farms buried by Lassen peak under a thick layer of volcanic mud, which has solidified into an impervious hard pan, refugeees from Hat Creek valley said today they had no intention, for the present at least, of returning to their homes, The menace of the volcano, they said, made life too precarious in the valley. Sixteen families fled from the val- ley when Saturday’s explosion sent a river of mud and lava down the moun- tain side. They found refuge in Bur- ‘ney, a hamlet far removed rrom the danger ‘zone. In Eruption Again, Lassen was reported to have been in eruption again last night, but owing to cloudy skies, the outbreak was not generally observed. From small towns in the shadow of the mountain word came today that great excitement prevailed, Heavy Fall of Ashes. e Fall Rivers, one of the villages, was subjected to a heavy fall of ashes. ‘W..J.

It sounded like a thousand hailstorms rolled into one. The huge pall of smoke appeared to hang almost over me. Big boulders ‘Wwere thrown hundreds of feet in the air, ‘“When the eruption was at its ‘height, a sharp earthquake shook the ,earth and terrorized the villagers at ‘Burney. They realized the imminent danger and at once began prepara- .{ tions to rescue the people in the en- dangered region.” T\]’B«K!SH GUNBOAT SUNK.

To conquer, defend and retake them, the German | soldiers have received a formal order which was so expressed as to make it dperative until the last man ' was' kiled. . Ended in Complete Victory. 1 “In spite of the unusual difficulties of the ground and the desperate re- sistance of the enemy, we triumphed. The battle of Lorette was a great battle and ended in complete .victory. In this part of the front fighting has been going on' uninterruptedly since October, 1914."” Continuing, the eye witness recalls the leading incidents since = last October, referring among, other things to the .French . withdrawal March 3, 1915, after an heroic defense. Finally, | on March 15 the French began to get the upper hand in their offensive movements, Thousands of Dead “Thousands of dead testified to the desperate nature of the contest,” the eve witness goes on to say, ‘“Facing the French was a formidable organ- ization; lines of trenches. reinforced by sacks of earth and cement and further protected by a double and {riple system of barbed wire entangle- rnients, and other defenses, the whole protected by quick firing guns. At various obstacles we carefully pre- pared our attack, multiplying our trénches and placing our heavy ar- tiilery in the rear. “The division chargea with the at- tack on Lorette comprised three regi- ments of infantry and three battalions of chasseurs.” Paris, May 24, WOMEN'S BENEFIT ASSN, REVIEW New York, May 24.—Delegates rep- resenting 186,000 women in every state 'in this country and several Ca- nadian provinces gathered here today to attend the supreme review of the ‘Woman's Benefit association, Ladies of the Maccabees of the World.
