The writer states that though he cannot go to the front, he is willing to pay for a substitute, and offers to place $100 per month in the Minister‘s hands for this purpose so long as the war continues. He asks that the Minister make use of the money "in a way that will damâ€" ago the Huns."

"The enemy‘s artillery has been acâ€" tive east of Ypres and south of the La Bassee Canal. Our reply to this shelling has been very effective. An official comxnication from Field Marshal Sir john French, the British Commander â€" in â€" Chief in France, says: An earlier German attack Champagne made at night Courtine was stoppedl by the rifle and machine gun fire. The Germans made another gas atâ€" tack east of Rheims. The French troops, protecting themselves against the gasâ€"clouds, poured in a heavy inâ€" fantry fire, which was supported by a curtain of fire from the French artillery, and the German attempt was cut short. at once began a heavy bombardment, under cover of which the Germans reâ€" organized and made repeated counterâ€" attacks in an effort to regain the posiâ€" tions, but the French held the advanâ€" tage. French Troops Destroy the German Entrenchments in the Arras District. A despatch from Paris says: The French have made a valuable gain southâ€"east of Neuvilleâ€"St. Vaast, on the road between Arras and Lille. The attack was preceded by the exâ€" plosion of heavilyâ€"charged â€" mines, which tore up the enemy trenches at this point and destroyed their barbed wire entanglements.

On the Western front, there has been comparatively little change, both sides claiming some local successes. The Russians are now on the offensive on most of the great Eastern battleâ€"front, but conditions there show little change. With the obvious aim of relieving the pressure on Serbia, the Italian troops have taken the offensive on their front, and despite the difficulties of the country, have won important positions. Other developments are indicated on the chart. The major interest in the war during the last week has been in the devclopments. in the Balkans. Th_e Austroâ€"German troops have made some progress in their invasion, although the Serbians have offered a heroic resistance, and the enemy‘s advance has been hampered by the nature of the country. _On the northern part of their front the Bulgarian army has met with some success, and has joined hz.m.ds with .t}.\e Austroâ€"German forces. Further south, however, the French and British troops landed at Saloniki, have joined the Se'rbxaqs and have driven the Bulgarians to their own frontier at the same time, with the result that Strumnitza is being menaced by the forces of the Entente.

One sees traces of attrition and weariness in Germany whichâ€"are not to be met with in France. Hold fast; resist all suggestions of peace; you will crush Germany." It is learned that the establishment of an arsenal for the production of such cannon by the Dominion Governâ€" ment itself would be acceptable to the British War Office. Germany Has Appearance of Hastenâ€"; ing to Ruin. | "A personage belonging to a neuâ€"‘ tral state has given the Paris Matin impressions gathered during a recent visit to Berlin," says the London Daily News. | "Berlin has the appearance of a dissolute city, and there is more vice to be met with than there was in the pleasure resorts of Paris before the war," he says. A despatch from Oitawa says: With the object of determining the possibilities of production of heavy guns in Canada, Sir Frederick Donâ€" aldson and Gen. Mahon, representaâ€" tives of the British War Office, are visiting the principal steelâ€"producing centres of the Dominion. They are now concluding an inspection visit to the plants of the Dominion Iron and Steel Co., the Nova Scotia Steel Co., and similar industries in the Maritime Provinces, after which they will visit Montreal, Toronto and other cities. The trophies were hauled into posiâ€" tion by the gunners of the Royal Horse Artillery, and beneath the muzâ€" zle of each gun was driven a little notice board informing the public of the nam» of the regiment or division which captured it and where it was captured. Four armed sentries guardâ€" ed the trophies and a sentry box was placed at each of the four corners of the wired enclosures. The presence of these captured guns from Loos made an appeal to the imagination of thousands of people who swarmed around the enclosure.

Small â€" Williamâ€""Father, kindly convey to my mind the meaning of the word ‘hobo.‘" Besides the rounds of the plainâ€" clothes men on the hunt for civilians in default, subaltern officers of the army now make nightly rounds of the wine shops and cafes for delinquent soldiers. When one is seen inside a wine shop after the stroke of nine, a sharp reminder in the form of a single word, "militaire," brings him to a reâ€" alization that martial law is still in force, and he salutes meekly and reâ€" turns to his quarters. In the 9th and 18th arrondisseâ€" ments, comprising Montmartre and Belleville, the favorite quarters of the lawless clement, and on the grand boulevards, the raids are most thorâ€" ough. They are organized by Monâ€" sieur Roussolet, chief of one of the metropolitan districts, who has under his orders eight commissaires of poâ€" lice and two police captains, who comâ€" mands four squads of plainclothes men that sweep the boulevards, Two squads operating on both sides of the boulevard start from Rue de Fauâ€" bourg Poissonniere, while two other squads start from the Madeleine, and work towards each other. Every man and woman unknown to the police as a lawâ€"abiding person must show paâ€" pers. The result of a recent raid of this kind was the verification of the papers of 52 professional beggars, 4 cocaine merchants, 11 special vagaâ€" bonds, 17 deserters and 703 women of the street. Of these, 512 woere arrestâ€" ed. Sport figures prominently in the life of the men at Mainz, and scarcely a week goes by without a football or cricket match; a tennis tournament or some similar event. The Englishmen, despite their numerical inferiority, are as usual the leaders in all games and outdoor exercises. Days of the Apaches Revived Through Recent Activities. Promenaders on the grand bouleâ€" vards of Paris have recently been treated to a spectacle comparatively rare since the beginning of the warâ€" general police raids, such as were effected at regular intervals during the days of the "Apaches." The men with whom an Associated Press correspondent had opportunity to speak recently agreed without exâ€" ception that the food was good and sufficient in quantity. Twice a day the men are allowed half a bottle of wine or of beer with their meals, and in addition are able to purchase alâ€" most any variety of eatables, things to drink and to wear, as well as luxâ€" uries, at the camp canteen. One of the largest buildings has been turned into a mess, where the officers eat. Four meals a day are servedâ€"beginning with the customâ€" Ary continental breakfast of bread and coffee, a hearty dinner at noon, a lighter meal late in the afternoon and a lunch or supper before bedtime. Until dark the men are allowed the liberty of the entire camp; after that they must retire to their rooms, but may keep lights burning until 11. At 745 in the morning they must be up and out,. By a sort of selfâ€"governâ€" ment system two officers in each building are put in control, or comâ€" mand, each week, and upon these rests the responsibility of getting the men out promptly each day and of enforcing the rules regulating the life of the camp. The buildings are in the form of a square about a huge enclosure, in which tennis courts have been built, and which serves excellently â€" as an exercise ground for the officers. The scene at almost any time of day is one of kaleidoscopic variety, as the redâ€" trousered Frenchmen mingle with the khakiâ€"clad Englishmen and the brilâ€" liantly uniformed Belgians walk with the Russians.
