K THE BEE: 61HAHA, MONDAY, OCTdBETl 14, 1918 BRITISH TROOPS NOW ARE WITHIN MILEJjF DOUAI Anglo-American Forces Cap ture Near Bohain Largest Ammunition Dump Ever Taken. BRINGING UP FATHER Copyright, lilt International -'ewi Service. Drawn for The Bee by George McManus By Associated Press. 4 With the Anglo-American Forces on Valenciennes Front, Oct 12 The British again attacked southwest of Douai yesterday, stormed, and took Brebieres and passed through to the eastward. .They are now within a mile of Douai itself. A stiff rear guard resistance by enemy mar It in cmnwmra i Kaiikt Americans and British troops cap lured in the Bohain region what was probably the largest enemy ammu nition dfimp ever taken. The shells, piled high, covered a . large area. This capture will greatly reduce the antity of ammunition available to the Germans on this section of the front. AH the Bohain roads were found to be mined when the Anglo-American forces entered the town. When the German sentries discovered that the mines had failed to catch any thing they shot at a big one in the center of the place. They made a direct hit and the explosion blew a hole, in the ground big enough to hold a large chateau. Yankees Take 3,006 Prisoners. Two additional batteries have Leen captured by the Americans op erating on this front south of St. Souplet. The German gunners were bayonetted. The British barrage late yesterday, completely smashed the hostile ar tillery, which fired heavily on the Americans at St. Souplet. Since the beginning of the pres ent operations the Americans have captured 46 officers and 1,900 men, andvsince joining the British fight ing forces they have secured 3,000 prisoners and more than i0 can non. Trooos from five divisions from ilhcr sections of the front have now appeared in the line opposite the British and Americans. The bulk of '.hew undoubtedly is being used to garrison the position known as the Valenciennes line. All, however, are believed to have been engaged in the recent fighting and are in low strength and poor morale. It fins been established that 53 enemy divisions (715,500 men) have been engaged on the Cambrai-St. Quentin front along since Septem- ' ber 29. Stand on Valenciennes Line. The Germans had to do quick work in the preparation of the Val enciennes line, which, it appears, they intend trying to hold. It seems, in a general way, to run from Valen ciennes to Vadegies, east of the river Escaillon, on the high ground south of Bermerain, along the high ground between Escahmain ajid Solesmes, along the high ground east of the river Selle, east of Le Cateau to Morlain, thense east of Andigny, west of Regnicourt, through the Piquerval wood and thence possibly southeast to Van dencourt on the Oise. It is obvious that this is only a imporary line, for explosions are . progress east is k0WD ' iat the military offices that were .'jrmerly inLeCteau were moved to vIaubeuge and Charleroi and guns have been seen moving back far to the eastward. In Douai there have itern several fires, while in Denain ?ud in the southern and northern outskirts of Lille explosions and fires have been observed. Villages northeast of Douai are burning, in cluding Maitaing, Marquette, Merch-icfturt- and Marcq. Notwithstanding the Germans having adopted a defensive line, the attacks by the British and Ameri eans are continuing. Greeted Joyously By Villagers.

Ragan s All-Star aggregation of professional ball players proled too much for the Armour amateur team Sunday and romped away with the long end of the 6 to 1 score. The big score piled up was largely due to an injured arm which forced League, the Armour's leading pitcher from the box in the fifth inning. Up to the time of leaving the game League had allowed but pne score, in the second inning, and was pitching gilt edge ball. The pack ers evened up in the fourth inning with a score off Ragan and the game continued scoreless until the eighth. Stillmock, who replaced League, weakened in the eighth and a heavy offensive started by the All-Stars reached their objective. Four runs crossed the plate before he could retire the side. Again in the ninth the professionals pushed a run across for a total of six. Manske Relieves Ragan. Ragan retired in the fifth with one run scored against his delivery. He was replaced by Manske former Rourke and later with the Council Bluffs Longeways. He seemed per fectly at home surrounded by pro fessionals and pitched exceptional ball.

If there's anything our soldiers can't do we haven't heard of it yet. Along comes Aubrey Stauffer, sergeant at Camp Taylor, Ky., and attempts to beat Walt Mason at his own game. Smileage and the Liberty theaterjj are his inspiration. Says the ser geant: Hey, doughboy, tell me Sammie. what you got there in your hand? That's me Smileage Book, said Sam mie, and it sure does come in grand. Why, what's it good for Sammie? your canteen, I suppose? Not on your life, said Sammie, it's only good for shows. It's good, I asked at K. of C. and W. M. C. A.s? Aw quit your kidding, Sammie said, this takes me to the plays The plays, I asked, what plays, my boy, can you see out at camp? And Sammie looked rile up and down with scornful eyes, the scamp; why you poor boob, he said to me, your ign'rance makes me sore. We've got an op'ry house that seats 2,000 men or more.

We ve boxing matches, wres tling matches, bands and vaudeville; there's nothing half so snappy in the town of Louisville. Besides all these we got a lot of Broadway shows and such. If shows don't play the Lib erty they don't amount to much. On Sunday when the" folks come out I show 'em all the sights, and then I show the op'ry house where I spend happy nights.
