Paris.?I/Illustration, Fiance's leading
pictorial weekly, recently contained
a remarkable story and a re- p
wen nitric puoiugrapn 01 an incident p
which occurred in the famous forest p
of the Argonne. Both picture and 8
narrative are the work of a French s
junior officer, who writes:
The general one morning said to e
me: "I want you to make your way 1
.to our first line, and if possible pho- a

I1 you, for the enemy shoots the first tect
kepi he sees and the moment he hears teri
a sound!"
Amid a mass of branches I app
perceived our lads. A lieutenant, elat
warned by telephone, was expecting 8er1
me. In a penetrating whisper he a c?
said: "Hist! they're only fifteen me- fori
ters off." 1 soon reached a faggot
hedge, and peeping through, with the
aid of a field-glass, 1 could distinguish
a heap of fresh Boil ahead. It was
the German trenches. Hei
