It was a high pressure fan, noiseless,

OFFICIAL BRITISH REPORT SAYS
GERMANS FIRE ON OWN FORGES
London. The ofllclal press bureau
Issued a descriptive account of the
operations In Franco of tho British
force and tho French 'armies in im
media to touch with It, cotumuulcatod
by an eyo witness present nt the head
quarters of Field Marshal Sir John
French.
"Sept. 25, 1914 For four days
thore has been a comparative lull all
along our front This has been ac
companied by a spell of flno weather,
though tho nights aro now much cold
er. One cannot have overythlug, how
ever, and one evil result of tho buu
shlno has been tho reloaso of flics,
which were torpid during the wut
days.
"Advantage has been taken of tho
arrival of reenforcomenta to relievo
by fresh troops tho men who have
been on the firing line for some time.
Several units therefore havo received
their baptism of flro during tho week.
Germane Fire on Own Men.
"Since the last letter left general
headquarters ovldenco has boon re
ceived which points to tho fact that
during counter-attacks on tho night
of Sunday, tho 20th, tho German Infan
try fired into each other as tho reHUlt
of an attempt to carry out tho dan
gerous expedient of a converging ad
vance in tho dark.
"Opposlto one portion of our po
sition a considerable massing of hos
tile forces was observed beforo dark,
and some hours later a furloUB fusil
lade was heard In front of our lino,
though no bullets camo over our
trenches.
Many Dead In Trenches.
"This narrative begins with Sep
tember 21 and covers only two days.
On Monday, the 21st, thero wub little
rain and the weather took a turn for
the better, which has been maintained.
The action was practically conilned to
the artillery, our guns at one point
shelling and driving away the enemy,
who were endeavoring to construct a
redoubt. The Germans for their part
expended a large number of heavy
shells In a long range bombardment of
a village.
"Reconnolterlng parties sent out
during the night of September 21
13 discovered somo deserted trenches,
and in them, or near them, In the
woods, more than a hundred dead and
wounded were picked up. A number
of rifles, ammunition and equipment
also were found. Thero were outer
signs that portions of the enemy's
forces had withdrawn for somo dis
tance. "Tuesday, the 22nd, also was a fine
day, with less wind, and was one of
the most uneventful days that has
passed since we reached the Alsne
uneventful, that is, for the British.
There was less artillery work on
either side, the Germans nevertheless
giving another village a taste of the
'Jack Johnsons.'
Bodies In "No Man's Land."
"Tho spot thus honored was not far
from the ridge where some of the
most severe fighting In which we have
taken part has occurred. All over this
'no man's land' between tho lines the
bodies of German lnfantrymon are
still lying in heaps whoro they have
fallen at different times.
"Espionage plays so large a part In
the conduct of the war by tho Ger
mans that it Is difficult to avoid fur
ther reference to the subject. Thoy
have evidently nover forgotten the
saying of Frederick the Great: 'When
Marshal Soubise goes to war he is fol
lowed by a hundred cooks; when I
take the field I am preceded by a
hundred spies.'
"Indeed1, until about twenty years
ago there was a paragraph In their
field service regulations directing that
the service of 'protection In the field'
outposts and advanced guards
should always be supplemented by a
system of espionage.
Many Spies Give Signals.
"Though such Instructions are no
longer made public, the Germans, as is
well known, still carry them Into ef
fect. Apart from the more elaborate
arrangements which were made in
peace time for obtaining information
by paid agents, some of the methods
which aro being employed for tho col
lection or conveyance of Intelligence
are as follows:
"Men In plain clothes signal to the
German lines from points in tho hands
of the enemy by means of colored
lights at night and puffs of smoke
from chimneys by day. Pseudo labor
ers working In the fields between the
arralos have been detected conveying
Information and persons in plain
clothes have acted as advanced scouts
to the German cavalry when ad
ranclng. Officers Remain Behind.
"German officers and soldiers in
plain clothes, or In French or British
uniforms, have remained In localities
evacuated by the Germans in order to
furnish them with Intelligence.
"On spy of this kind was found by
our troops hidden In a church, tower.
His presence was discovered only
through the erratic movements of the
hands of the church clock, which be
was using to signal to his friends by
means of an Improved semaphore
coda.
"Had this man not been seized it Is
probable he would have signaled to
the German artillory at the tlmo of
their arrival the exact location of the
headquarters and staff. A high ex
plosive shell would then have mys
teriously dropped on the building.
"Women spies also have been
caught; secret agents bare been found
nt tho railroads oboorvlng entrain
ments nnd dotrnlnmonU.
"It Is u b I in pi o matter for Bples to
mix with the refugees moving about
to their homes; difficult for our troops,
who speak neither French nor Ger
man, to detect them.
"Tho French have found It neces
sary to seurch villages and also casual
wayfnrerB on tho ronds for carrlei
pigeons. ,
"Among tho precautions taken by ua
to guard against spying Is tho publica
tion of tho following notice printed In,
French and posted: '
"'1. Motor cars and bicycles no
carrying soldiers In uniform mny no
circulate on tho ronds.
" '2. Tho Inhabitants may not lenvo
tho localities where thoy rusldo be
tween C p. m. and C a. in.
0"'3. Inhabitants may not quit tholi
homes after 8 p. in.
"'4. No person may on any pretext
pass through tho nrltish llneB with
out an authorization, countersigned bj
n British officer.'
Value of Secrecy Shown.
"EvcntB havo moved bo quickly dur
ing tho last two months that anything
connected with tho mobilization of the
British expotlltlonary forco la now an
cient history. Nevertheless, tho fol
lowing extract of a German order Is
ovldenco of tho mystification of tin
onomy and Is a trlbuto to tho valuo ol
secrecy, well and loynily malntnlnod
at tho tlmo in Englnnd:
"'Tenth Kcscrvo Army Headquar
ters, Mont St. Gulbort, Aug. 20, 1914,
23:40. Corps order, Aug. 21: The
French troops In front of the Tenth
army corps havo retreated south
across the Sambro. Part of the Bel
gian army has withdrawn to Antwerp.
It 1b reported that an English army
has disembarked at Calais and Boul
ogno, en route for Brussels.' "
DEATH COMES SWIFTLY
TO TWO GERMAN SPIES
London. A atory received from a
point in France It is not permitted to
Bpeclfy says:
A soldier comes out from bohind a
pine tree with riflo and fixed bayonet:
"Ou allez vous?" he says, Btepplng
beforo mo and dropping his bayonet
point a little toward me.
"Je vats me promoncr," I reply smil
ing, and anticipate his next demand
by pulling out my case and display
lng my special permit, also various
other papers and an officially stamped
photograph, which proves my identi
fication with the name upon the spe
cial permit
"Monsieur, permit me," says the sol
dier suddenly in very fair English.
"Monsieur is ze man that writes. I
shako you by ze band with ver' great
pleasalre. It is to me an honor!"
Wo "shako" with enormous empress
ment and I compliment him upon his
English.
He smiles, gratified, and disclaims
with great modesty. He beckons me
back among the trees.
"Ono comes!" ho Bnys. "Sshl Ze
woods hero have boon many times sot
In flames. Wo havo suspects those
bo dono with intention."
See Spy Among Trees.
He ceased his whisper abruptly and
we both bent forward together. A
hundred yards down the narrow path
among the pines a man in a work
man's blue blouso Is standing, looking
quietly In every direction.
Suddenly he takes a couple of steps
In among the trees, stoops and lifts
a stone.
vFar down the hillside at the end
of the narrow vista among the trees, a
second man was suddenly seen. So
utter Is the silence that I can hear
him plainly as he coughs., He begins
to haul on something, and I realize
suddenly tho meaning of the whole in
cident that I am watching. The two
men havo located the underground
private telophone wire going up to the
fort. They have been tapping it for
any news they might pick up.
Death Is Painless.
Tho soldier Is methodical. Ho takei
tho distant man first. Kneeling there
behind him, I watch with a growing
thrill and tension of tragedy and sick
ness his sunburned cheek cuddlo
against the stock of his riflo. Then
very slowly it seems to me in that
quiet, dreadful momont his stubby
clgaretto stained forefinger crooks
back gently, gently on tho trigger.
"Crack!" comes tho sharp, snapping
bang of the weapon, and tho man
down the vista of trees gives a queer
llttlo Jump and thon turns right around
quickly and looks behind him. And
thus looking, and seemingly unaware
that ho Is the person who has been
shot, hjs heart stops and he rolls over
quite easily and gently on his side
a merciful enough death, as theso
violent deaths go, for some of them
are so dreadful.
Shoots Second German.
And then, as I stare, the rifle goes
"crack!" again, and I Jump; for I am
still looking at tho silent figure down
the vista of trees.
But the soldier has boon attending
to his business and has snapped off a
second shot at tho nearer man, for
the man had started to bolt. And be
causo the shot was hastily aimed tho
second death is as cruel as the first
was merciful.
An examination of both bodies
shows that tho men wore German
epics, In possession of "ciphered" in
formation that would no doubt prove
very helpful to our enemies.

As the man came forward to use the

of his master. In tho animal's eye
thero camo an nngered look and ho
growled viciously at the landlord, who
lost his nerve and retreated, promis
ing, however, that ho would have a
constable attend to tho tramp.
After the owner had departed the
tramp lazily lay down on tho log,
stretched his arms and proceoded to
take a nap. The dog lay down besldo
him, placed his head across the
tramp's knees, and watched tho land
lord until ho was out of sight. Every
time a passerby would happen to walk
near tho tramp tha dog would raise
his head and watch him until ho had

HE FOLLOWED THE COFFEE
Unhappy Man, Tired of "Eating
Around," Pursues and Marries
His Former Landlady.
Chicago. Charles 0. Dorwln liked
good coffee. Many yearn of "eating
around" in Chicago had tnught him
that thero aro about as many differ
ent kinds of coffee as thero aro res
taurants and boarding houses.
Then Mr. Dorwln found tho board
ing house conducted by Mrs. Bello B.
Houghton. It was a small affair in a
third-floor apartment. Mrs. Houghton
llvod there with her sister, who also
was a widow, and they had two or
three boarders, JuBt to help along with
expenses.
But Mrs. Houghton could mako
good coffeo. Dorwln discovered that,
and he settled down to tho enjoyment
of life. He was getting along in
years, and after working all day in a
Dearborn street office building he
found thero was nothing quite as sat
isfying as going home and being
served with one of Mrs. Houghton's
meals and her unusually good coffeo.
Tho back porch of tho Houghton
flat looked out over sevoral railroad
tracks, and tho trains kept Mr. Dor
wln nwnko some nights, but ho stayed,
nevertheless.
A little moro than a year ago Mrs.
Houghton and her sister decided that
a bungalow In California would be a
moro enjoyable placo to live than a
third-story flat, with a view of Jack
son park from tho front nnd railroad
tracks from tho back. So thoy moved
away.
Dorwln moved, too, but nowhere
could ho And coffeo such as Mrs.
Houghton used to make. A few weeks
ago ho, too, went to California. The
other day, oyer tho wires from Los
Angeles, came tho news that a mar
rlage license had been Issued to
Charles O. Dorwln, fifty-seven, and
Belle B. Houghton, fifty-five.

Passover has now como, tho time ap
pointed and predicted, Matt. 20:2.
iJosua directs the dlsclplos to tho room
of his own choosing; thoy woro to find
It following a man bearing a pltchor.
This Is suggestive of our following
tho lending of tho Holy Spirit
Remarkable Occasion.
II. The Passover, vv. 17-21. Hero at
evontldo Jesus and tho twolvo sal
nbout tho Pnssovor board. As wa
took back ovor tho pages of history It
4s truly a remarkablo occasion. The
'Passover was a perpetual memorial ol
tho Exodus. Now, in the dispensations
of Dlvlno economy, this Is to be its
last observance. Jesus had been look,
ing forward to this occasion, John
C:70, 71, yet In the midst of the feast
his soul ia filled with anguish, Johr
13:21.
The perfidy of Judas waa the blttcv
noss of the cup, but Jesua only let him
go when ho must and then only with
groat sorrow. Judaa waa disappointed
in his dream of a material kingdom
and hla deslro for the possession ot
carnal pleasures. Greed had growa
becauso given food. Hate, stifled con
aclence, spurned love, a thief, a mur
derer, Judas was guilty that moment
aa he waa the next night.
III. The Parable, vv. 22-25. From all
the records we believe that Judaa left
the company aa soon as he waa identi
fied, and before tho feast waa Insti
tuted. Jesua ovor taught by symbol.
We hear much about objective teach
ing, Jesus anticipated ua all. From
tho Passover board Jesua took bread,
and after offering thanks, ho brake it.
saying as ho did so, "Take ye, this ia
my body." This does not mean tha
breaking of his body on the cross, for
not a bone waa thon broken, John
19:36; I Cor. 11:24 R. V. It does sig
nify the distribution ot hla body among
all who shall feed upon him. This
does not mean the actual physical
transformation of tho bread Into his
body. The bread represents his body,
nnd like as bread becomes a part of
tho physical body, so to cat thua In
symbol, ho becomes a part of us.
Thoro Is no question, howovor, of tha
actual spiritual presence of Christ in
tho elements. "Discerning the Lord's
body" thoro is a real feeding upon
'Christ, John 6: CO, 51, C3, 55. To pan
take unworthily Is to bo "guilty of tha
body and blood of Christ," and we eat
and drink "Judgment" to ourselves, 1
Cor. 11:24-26. Jesus commands thai
the observance of this rite shall b
continued. It la a covenant which
his disciples are to perpetuate "till
become," I Cor. 11:24. The ground ol
this covenant between a holy God and
sinful men, Is the shed blood, v. 24,
see Heb. 9:18-23. Aa the blood la th
life poured out, so he poured out hla
life that where aln Is, there may b
forgiveness and remission, Lev. 17: 1L
Only One Recourse.
The first Passover waa the prelude
of the exodus; this la the prelude ol
that of which Josub spoke In convers
ing with Moses and Elijah on tha
Mount of Transfiguration. The blood
of Christ was shed unto the remission
of sin, Matt 26:28. It ia the ground
of God's forgiveness, see Matt. 20:28,
Horn. 3:25 It. V., I John 2:2, Eph. 7:7,
and many other passages. There la
pone other ground for our forgiveness
than the shed blood. It may be old
fashioned but it Is scriptural and
flcaves ub no other recourse.
The symbolism of this holy ordi
nance is simple, yet sublime. It Is to
bo a perpetual proclamation of bis
resurrection. His. death Is the central
fact of redemption, tho way of liberty
Ifor the captives of sin. The supper is
meanlnglcBS apart from this element
Jt Is true that In Its observance wa
remember hla grace and glory, tha
beauty ot his person and the wonder
and wisdom ot his teaching, yet the
supreme significance of the act is bis
death.
In that upper room waa the Messiah
and a Remnant There the true pur
pose ot God waa fulfilled and the He
brew nation, aa God'B Instru lent,
came to an end. Jesua had toltl the
rulers in the temple that "the king
dom of God shall be taken from you
and given to a nation bringing forth
the frultn thereof." By the old Pass
over Israel passed from Egypt By
this feast a new transference takoa
place, a new dispensation is ushered
In which shall abide "till ho come."
Tho lesBon committee has elected to
close this lesson with verse 25, bu(
verso 26 is also Illuminative.
