: FLANDERS FIGHT
I- V j
LONDON, Eng., December 5.—A
German description of a British bom
bardment, smoke screen, attacks with
gas, flame-throwers and tanks follow
ed by a charge of Canadians and Scots
published by the Berlin Dost Is en
titled “In the Flanders Fell. ’
“For weeks, day and night.’’ says
the writer, “the British kept our .posi
tion under fire. Ever fiercer burned
the glowing stream that poured crack
ling down upon us Every day this,
fire grew hotter. Our artillery re-|
plied powerfully. The army commun
ique spoke of a concentration of ene
my artillery fire on individual sec
tors. Even we cannot describe what
that means. The history of the world
has never seen anything more awful.
All calibres were brought into action,
and a crater of unprecedented extent;
opened beside the others were excav
ated afresh, swallowed up the old
ones, spread out beyond the Jime
trees and threw up ine hinterland.
Nothing remaind intact of all that
nights of hard labor under 'he ene-1
my’s fire had created.
“The destroying fire did its work
with depressing thoroughness, seem
ing to extihquish all life, and now
came the turn of the smoke shells.
Thick smoke lay before our eye3, so
that we could see nothiug, and jet
ever further forward must we push
our death-defying posts. A real fog
is mere, patchwork compared with
this artificial fog which the British
send out in order to veil their disposi
tions.
“When this appeared inadequate
the enemy employed gas, and the evil
mists came rolling towards our lines
and passed over them; only our gas
masks prevented every living thing
from being destroyed. The gas had
a similar effect on our weapons; all
iron was covered with thick rust.
“The English now judged that they
had done enough preparatory worl$, '
for suddenly drumfire started with
the most terrifying effect. Shells of
the heaviest calibre thundered
across, with mines, machine gun vol
leys, and hand g~cnades all uniting
in a blood-curdling, hellish pande
monium such as even a Dante would
never be abl^to describe.
“German nerves held out with the
utmost resolution, constantly await
ing the moment when the hurricane
of fire would break loose. And the
storm came. In the neighboring sec
tor flame throwers were turned on
against this murderous engine no
measures avail. There is nothing for
it but to get back into the rearward
positions. i
“And then the enemy was on us.
Tank after tank loomed forward.
These monsters appeared invincible,
and if one of them was hit by ft heavy
shell the guns and machine guns I? -
side were kept going unremittingly,
until finally their iron hall reached
our lines. And behind the tanks came
Scots and Canadians. We see noth
ing but endless rows of enemies.
“At last our reserves deliver a
counter attack. Murder breaks out ,
afresh. The field of dead become
once more a battleground.”

A woodchopper who had .gone up
the creek In search of firewood, re
cently stumbled on to thirty-six cases
of whiskey in a cabin a few miles
east of Anchorage on Ship creek, ac
cording to a report in Anchorage a
few days ago. The marshal's office
there is investigating the story.

Although there was a shortage of
fish in the Tanana river this summer,
the natives along that stream will not
suffer this winter, as game is more
than usually plentiful and the Indians
have laid in a bounteous supply of
meat Bear and moose have been tak
en in unusual numbers
