New York.—The British have not permitted the' halt' in the fighting along the western battle front to keep them inactive. With Their landsmen on the alert;- Vateh'ing keenly . and waiting fori the next riiove of the Ger man Infantry in France and Belgium, British naval forces, reinforced to some extent by French war craft, have carried out a' sitflrtling and dar ing maneuver,-which; if it should prove to have- been successful, may play a marked part in the future of the war. No less objective was sought "than the blotting out by one sweeping blow of Germarty’s submarine mence from the bas.es at 2?eebrugge’ and 0'st.end by the sinking across the exits from the harbors of large oldrtime cruisers, laden with cargoes of concrete to make them more difficult of removal.

IrT addition .considerable damage was done by the guns of the warships to works on shore .-at both places. Volunteers were chosen by the Brit ish admiral in command for the dan gerous task, and a far greater number' of men than could be used in the en terprise . willingly came forward and offered their services for a maneuver which'might‘be successful in ridding the waters of menaces which had .re mained impr%gna.ble under the shore batteries', the'^iins of warships and the treacherous shoal-"-'water outside.

DmiafcE^KI^LINj^.. IN..- , . , FEDERAL. COURT'YhE CLttflAX TO LONG TRIAL Noted Hindue..Slain By Co-Defendant, Ram Singh, And The Latter Is Killed By Marshal San Francisco. Cal.—A sensational climax to. the prolonged trial of thirty- two persons charged with conspiring to foment, revolution in India was fur nished when Ram Chandra, Hindu publicist and revolutionist, was shot, to death in the federal district court by Ram Singh, a former employee and fellow defendant. While Singh still Pfessed the trigger of his automatic pistol, he, too, was shot and killed by United States Marshal James B. Hol- ohan, who fired across the room over the heads of attorneys. Belief that Ram Chandra had di verted to his own use proceeds from property which Ram Singh had turned over for use in the proposed revolu tion is said by federal officials to have prompted the shooting. The trial since the opening has seethed with excitement and animos ity among the defendants to such an extent that all were searched for weapons daily when entering court. At Singhs’ first shot spectators, de fendants, counsel and others in the room, darted for cover, overturning chairs and iahjes in their ight. Soldiers and deputy marshals rushed to all exits with' ‘drawn revolvers. Or der was soon restored. Chandra got all the new ; s he wanted for bis paper,from India, and said he djd it, through 'copies "of the Koran, marked peculiarly. ’Native ' censors wbuld not touch these'books, he said, and apparently nobody else under stood the ‘system.

TO TEST STRENGTH OF HEART] Simple Method Which Is Credited t<J the Invention of German Men of Science. There is a new way of diagnosing heart disease. It was discovered in Gerrnany and is based upon the prin-j ciple that extremely slight motion in the air will form similar changes in al burning flame.' • • - • i Two small' smoking gas flames are qsed, and around these is twined' a wide paper tape. The flames cause bands of soot to appear upon the-sur- : face of the tape. Over the heart of the patient an in strument somewhat similar to a tele phone transmitter is placed. This transmitter lias a very sensitive dinphragim. Its vibrattons -arc. (dupli cated by the diaphragm and transmit ted by, a tube to if ' gas chamber through which passes the gas .for one ofthe flames. The slight ilamings of the gas in re sponse to the various vibrations result in characteristic rings of smoke on the paper tape. ; From these, abnormalities- in the heart-beat can be read. : Time is recorded by the second flame, influ enced similarly by vibrations, from a tuning fork. The smoke rings vary in shape and position according "to the character of vibration causing them, and so help to simplify the diagnosis. FOODS TASTE BETTER COOKED —TOBACCO TASTES BETTER TOASTED '- v Since the day of the caveman, who liked his meat raw, civilization has learned a lot about the scientific treat ment of the things we eat Naturally none of us would flow prefer to have our meat raw, our po tatoes as they come from the ground, our coffee unroasted. And naturally follows the great dis covery recently made by The Ameri can Tobacco Co.—that tobacco tastes better TOASTED! This wonderful new idea—simple like all great inventions—was first used in producing the famous LUCKY STRIKE Cigarette—made of toasted Burley tobacco. Burley has a mellow flavor, entirely different from the tobaeco usually used for cigarettes. It is a pipe to- bacco and LUCKY STRIKE Cigarettes taste like a pipe. Adv.
