Havre, Sept. 18,-- The French left. and the British force under General French, has moved until they now face practically due west. Loan and lafere, where the Ger mans first thought of making a stand, were abandoned after a stiff artillery duel on Tuesday. and the general opinion of correspondents is that there will be.comparatively easy going until the fields of Sed- an and the fortifications, hastily im- provised by the German at Meazier- es, are reached by the victorious, advancing allies." If the abandonment of Loan, which is situated on _ exceedingly high ground, and which is known to. have been entrenched by the Ger mans, is correct, it is safe fo assume that. the outflanking movement har been more successful than officia' communiques would suggest. British wounded who were in the fighting on Sunday and Monday de cldre that the Germans' big siege e¢nns were not emvnloyved, and that the French and British artillery were making much better practice than the enemy. Tracks where the immense guns on caterpillar wheels had been Arageed back, were observed at Nenville near great tunnels, and it thought that the Germans made are of the safety of the big guns entraining them there, and re mounting them far to the rear.

Given Chance to lLive----Condemned to Death Fiendish Teuton Made Brutal Proposal Which Brought Death to Himself, Paris, Sept. 18.~Under the headir "A Monsters and a Hero's Death, the Matin prints a war story of youthful heroism. It is backed by the authority of a French senator, and is replete with names and places. "M. Pauliat, a- senator of the de- partment of Cher," says the Matin, "tells how at the village of lLourches, in Northern Lrance, a wounded French sergeant, angeved by German brital- ity, shot a Frussian oflicer. Before being shot he was given water by a dauntless lad, Emile Depres, who there- upon also was condemned to imime- diate execution. Just as the soldiers were bandaging the bhoy's eyes pre- paratory to firing, the German cap- tain, with a -cruel smile, cried cyni- sally : '1 give you your lite on condi- tion that you act as executioner for this sergeant. He asked. for water; youll give him lead. "After a moment's hesitation the a20y agreed. Seizing a rifle, he aimed it the sergeant's breast. Then, sud- fenly turning, he shot the sneermng German, and he himself fell hacked to vieces with bayonets. His act wall live n history. | ol WAR BULLETINS. The extreme right wing of the German line on Thursday afternoon was driven back info lower Belgium. British and Belgians formed a junction on Thursday, and it is expected a large body: of Ger- mans will be captured. Kitchener in the house of lords Thursday night warmly praised the work of General French and his men: He said that Britain ean now feel con: fident of the result, but the war will be a loag one. The London war office says, the successes of the allies are continued. The Russian war office re- ports conditions in Galicia and Poland satisfactory. London military experts think Germany nowiwill make its first determined stand by its forts inside its own frontier. Decisive Servian victory on the border. Austrian losses appalling in Galicia. Duke Nicholas invited the Austrians to surrender to the Russians. Von Kluek's army reinforee- ments made an unsuccessful at- tempt to break the allies' line.

The Austrian emperor has left Vie enna. t Germans reported giving away at certain points, but the battle still rages. Petrograd report states Ger- man warships engaged in battle with each other in the Baltic, several vessels being sunk with heavy loss. British admiralty training ship Fishguard sinks in a gale with loss of twenty-one men. At Tokio it is reported that the German cruiser Emden has sunk five British passenger ships off the coast of India. It is believed in London that Italy will join the allies within two weeks.

"An unusual dental feat, in addi- tion "to the decoration, ig found in a right middle tooth. This is not a right midddle incisor, but a right laternal incisor, which does not be- long to the jaw, but was implanted to replace the: nriddle ineisor.fi This is such an extraordinary feature that we must weigh very ¢arefully the evidence as to its having been found in the jaw * * indeed, there is 'mo reason to doubt that the re- placement is a geniune triumph of the ancient dentists of Ataeames.'
