AMMUNITION
Native Indian Troops Destroy
ed Park After Allies Artillery
Efforts Had Failed; Coast
Artillery Moved to Rear.
London. —The correspondent of the
Daily -Mail in Paris describes how the
Gurkhas (native Indian troops) blew
up a German ammunition park, thus
causing some of the German coast bat
teries to move to the rear. He says:
"All the efforts of the allies’ artil
lery against these batteries had been
unavailing and the Germans were
causing severe losses when the air
scout 3 located the ammunition stores
seven miles behind the German lines.
"At night the Gurkhas detachment
departed on gunboats which proceeded
to the month of Yser and after a long
silent march the Gurkhas reached the
German ammunition stores guarded by
six sentries. Six silent figures moved
toward them each carrying a long
knife. Then a sound like the croak
ing o. a frog was heard and the six
sentries iisappeared.
“Shortly afterward the general staff
of the allies saw a great flash of light
on th , horizon and heard a great ex
■ piosion followed by countless others,
J.vsr the shells and shrapnel in their
cases exploded in all directions. The
GurHias returned safely to the gm
boats."
SECRET MOVE IT
BRITISH GOV'T
Four Distinguished Men Sent
to the Continent. Importance
Evidenced By Mission’s Mem
bers.
London. —The British government
has sent David TJoyd George, chan
cellor of the exchequer; Lord Haldan'%
lord' chancellor, and Lord Reading,
chief Justice, to the continent.
The destination and object of th's
mission is kept a secret. Its impor
tance is evident from its membership
ant apparently the business to he
transacted concerns both financial and
legal matters. The most plausible re
port has It that the three have gono
to Holland and possibly will extend
their Journey to the Scandinavian
countries to deal with the matter of
, the shipment of goods from neutral
countries into Germany.
The newspapers of all those coun
tries assert their importations are for
fheir own needs alone, while Knglisli
papers insist they Rre receiving con
signments of petroleum, grain and food
stuffs generally which far exceed their
normal requirements.

better effect than in furniture for the dining room. The purity and beauty of the
simple yet exquisite lines appeal at once—and impressively. The true, homelike
characteristics of the pieces are features that have made the word “Sheraton” a
standard for comparison the world over.
