A little later the advanee was teiii|H>raril> cheek***! by a machine gun. which had been placed in position m a fortified shell-hole in front oi the Herman support line. Private Carroll, without waiting for orders, charged under very heavy tire across a stretch of open ground, and engaged single-handed the fotfr Hermans who were working the gun. thus enabling tin* whole line to advance.

Robert Grieve was in charge of a company during an attack on the German third line system. He led his men forward under very heavy machine gun and shell-tire, which inflicted many casualties. During the whole of the advance he moved constantly up and down the leading line, reassuring and cheering the men. After l?assing the enemy's second system of trenches, the company came under an even more intense Are from two machine guns situated in a house on the right front of the advancing line. All oinwrs, wun tnr rjirpiiun ui voi't. Grieve, were killed- or wounded, a considerable portion of ':he company were put out of action, and the whole attack was temporarily checked. Capt. Grieve gave orders for the company to push on, and dashed off himself toward the spot from which the machine gun fire was coming. He had to cover about fifty yards of open ground under the direct observation of the enemy, who fired at hrtn continuously but without success. He reached the doorwa> from which one of the guns was firing, and'threw bomb after bomb inside until both machine guns were silenced. With his revolver he killed the remainder of the crew. He then searched i>oth the house and its neighborhood thoroughly, to ensure that none of the enemy?had escaped hiin. and afterwards rejoined his company. With characteristic coolness and ability he reorganized his men. and entered the Certnan trenches at their head. It was entirely due to hint that the assault was carried to a successful conclusion.

GUARDING THE-PRESIDENT Secret Service Men Take Absolutely No Chances. Perhaps if is just as well for Col. Roosevelt's peace of mind, writes a Washington correspondent, that he didn't ?et close to I he White House on his recent trip to Washington. It is probable that the colonel would have been pained to see how all is changed around the place he once called home. Particularly is this true in the precautions thrown about the president to protect him from cranks and other evildoers. It was the colonel's dear delight to escape from his secret service guards on a line, foggy night and have every policeII. til., ti.uii Innkinir for him. It was a very funny joke in those days, hut it would not he funny at all now. I Washington betrays every symptom of having at last awakened to a sense of interest in the president of the I'nited Suites. The average Wushingtoniun formerly stared languidly after the presidential automobile. Nowadays he frowns. He does not like to see the president hike chances. Washington is beginning to wish the president had a more secluded spot in which to play golf than the country club. * The president is uuite aware of the changed sentiment of Washington and the country at large on presidential escapades, and not since the war was declared has Mr. Wilson attempted to evade the White House bodyguard. Hard to Slip Away. Hack in his first administration he once slipped otT and got as far as his bunk, several blocks away, before the secret service men caught him and frowned at him disapprovingly, hut since America entered the world war the president has not even tried to go out alone. It is doubtful if he could slip away. In the lirst pluce, it is almost as hard to get out of the White House grounds as it Is to get in. Particularly Is this true at night. No longer are the big iron gates that open on the semi-cireular drive to the White House entrance thrown hospitably "open to e r?ryTouTTSt~who caTes " to walk up and peep in the front door. Not only are these gates locked, but they are guarded by policemen who have orders not to leave under any circumstances. It would avail a band of plotters nothing to start a riot outside the White House gates In the hope of drawing those inside guards away from their posts. They simply do not leave and nobody gets in those gates who is not personally known to the policeman on guurd.

Every policeman in the grounds hair a telephone at his elbow and he Jean call for help or notify the White House guard room of any emergency. When night comes on a new force of policemen goes on duty inside the gates and a detachment of United States regulars are thrown completely about Ihe White House, where they stand ( guard until morning. Washingtonians occasionally gratify ( their sense of curiosity by walking up close to these soldier guards, just to see how the soldiers will behave. The , men in uniform patrol their beats with tixed bayonets and loaded ritles and us a pedestrian approaches euch guaru always manages euner co siujj and face the pedestrian or to he walking toward him. The guard* are placed sufficiently close together to be uble to see each other plainly and the most dangerous thing in Washington is to try any humorous moves toward the White House fence. The whole city was laughing not long ago at the story of a White House attache who tried to use the east gate of the White House one night after the military guard went on duty. The soldier who was stationed in front of the east gate had orders to let nobody enter and he believed in carrying out his orders. The civilian who applied for admittance was firmly told to keep on walking. He protested that he was at- , tached to the White House anil had been in the habit of using the east gate. "You heard what I said." warned the guard. "Yes. I heard you," replied the man, "but I'm going in this gate." The next thing the civilian knew ( was a sharp pain in the back of his thigh, where the sentry hud insA-ted the poinT of his bayonet and was pushing me peaettirian nipimy toward the curb. The man in khaki calmly waited the attache'* next move. That gentleman decided he had better use the west gate, and ' made haste to do so. Of course, these precautions are all that Washington can see on the sur- ' face. It knows nothing of the intri- 1 cute inner system of White House ' defense, organized on an electric basis ' and liacked by the entire police force of the city. The nature of this real ' defense system is a mystery and no 1 good American would write about it if he knew. i franks are no longer much trouble ubout the White House, thanks to the i rigid guard system there, but they do vastly trouble other government I officers about town.

Some of them are altogether plausible in their statements and manage to convince the watchmen in government buildings of their own importance. For such men as these, practically all government officials have been equipped with push buttons under the carpet of their desks?"nut buttons," they are popularly called?the mere ringing of which is recognised as a danger signal and turns out the captain of the watch and his crew in that particular building. The police in Washington "strain out" a large number of the worst typte of oratiks by placing a "nut squad" at the railway entrance to the city, and here a corps of men is constantly on duty, watching for the gentleman who must get his story off his chest.
