A daring deed of two German officers attached to the Twenty-fourth pioneers resulted In the destruction of a railroad line on which the French were transporting ammunition and reinforce ments greatly needed by them to resist the German, according to details made .public today. The two officers penetrated the French lines by swimming across the Meuse and making their way through swamps and over canals. They passed the French out posts and finally reached the railroad embankment, which they blew up with dynamite. After this they rut an under ground telegraph wire and then returned in safety to their own lines. The follow ing details are given by a lieutenant who Each remedy la carefully pre pared for the relief of a separate and distinct ailment.

"The night of the wind was blow- Ing a hurricane. Part of the German line was familiar to us, particularly the near side of the Meuse and the location of some of the French outposts, but nothing was known of the other side of the river, except the location of the railroad that had been marked for destruction. The first part of the Journey was comparatively easy. Going forward quietly, we soon came to the canal on the left bank of the Meuse, which was closely guarded. Finally we arrived at a bridge. Here we killed the French guard, making no noise about It. After this we descended Into a bog along the river and going further we crossed several canals by swimming. Our teeth chattering with the cold we finally reached the banks of the Meuse, which was here about fifty five yards wide. We mannced to swim the river. On the other side another dif ficulty awaited us. There was a swamp at this point and we could find no place to land. We floated down stream until finally we were fortunate enough to get a footing. Then we climbed out. In Mad AboTe Knees. . "We plowed ahead In mud often above our knees, exercising the greatest cau tion. It was the hardest kind of going. Finally we reached the spot selected for detruUon. We laid our mine and set and lishted the time fuses, which we had carried up to this time tied in our hair. We were waiting for the explosion, but in the meantime we were still In danger of detection by French troops not far away. "The fuse worked and the explosion came on time. At once French cavalry patrol dashed up and began firing Into the swamp where we were hiding. This swamp was now a good ally. We eluded pursuit and got sway. "I-ater we came to a village and at the point of our revolvers we requisitioned a horse and wagon. Then began a wild ride back to our lines." The two officers have received the decoration of the Iron cross for their ex ploit. Another lieutenant and a corporal who started on this trip evidently lost their live by drowning.
