OREAT VKRDVN BATTLE
RNTKR8 ON NINTH WUKK
tContiuued from Page 1)
j niont, Dieppe. Fromezeye, Haucourt,
' and most Important of all, Fort Douaumont.
These positions lie east of
the Meuse and north and northeast
of Verdun.
Fight for Fort Vaux
Fighting continued intermittently
northeast of Verdun during third
week, centering in the struggle for
the possession ot Fort Vaux. In this
week the Germans captured Frensues.
12 miles southeast of Verdun,
j making a three mile advance in this
i.?* i?
nrciiUU.
Meanwhile a new phase of the
battle liail developed west of the
Mouse. With batteries spaced, according
Jo German correspondents,
nearly inO yards apart, the violent
artillery attacks were made against
Dead Man's hill, preceding (lie long
expected offensive from the northwest.
Forges, near Dead Man's hill.
; was captured early in the third week
after an infantry assault along a
i front less than three miles long. PoI
sitions south of Forges changed
hands frequently during the followj
ing days.
On March 31 the capture of Mali
ancourt was accomplished after fierce
i night attacks. The Germane now
I had occupied all the French posij
lions north of Forges brook between
llaucourt and Bethincourt and bad
materially advanced and strengthenl
ed their battle line in the northI
west. New batteries were moved up
and the infantry was rested and reorganized
for the next attack.
On the ttith day of the battle thrt
Germans announced the capture of
Haucourt. about three miles northwest
of Dead Man's hill. which
formed a supporting point of the
French left wing. From it a large
section of the French line and forti[
fications could be taken under German
file, including Bethincourt. This
viiuik?' men Docame the objective
point. The French admitted the
evacuation of the Bethlncourt salient
two days later, statin? it was a premeditated
move designed to straighten
nut the battle line.
On Sunday of last week the Germans
undertook a general onslaught
along a 1G milo front both west and
east of the Meuse from the Hauf

attack on the largest scale ilnce the j
beginning of the offensive." ;
The Qermans announced that with- .
In a few hours after it was begun
Bethincourt and two fortified posi-'
tions to the southwest were Isolated.:
Trenches in the region of Dead'
Man's hill were carried, but at no I <
point was the Frencn line broken ,
through. Toward the end of last
week this attack subsided and there
came another pause, followed by
French counterattacks over small
sections of the line.
The failure of the Germans to
break the French line in the general
offensive of last week led French
correspondents to assert that the
German offensive had broken down.
I Dispatches from the German front.
; however, state the the operations
are being carried forward methodlI1
cally in accordance with the preconceived
plan and with a full measure
of the expected success for the German
arms.

All that is ever likely to be known
of the aborigines of Newfoundland has
been printed by an antiquarian who
iias made these vunished people the
study of his life. These mysterious
people were, it appears, not Eskimos
like some of the tribes in "Doctor
Grenwell's parish," across the strait
in Labrador. The Eskimo has a squat
body, a hat face and a nose hardly
large cuougn to oe cauea mien, uui
this race was tall and long limbed,
