IISURA ICO' LOANS. S'I'C.
LONDON, Sept. 10. - The British
In an advance over a four -mile Croat
between the Havrincourt Wood and
Pedere have captured all the Dorman
positions on the high ground between
these two point,' and won their old
trench positions overlooking Gou-
seaueourt, according to an official
commuafeatlos from F1.ld Marshal
Haig last night. The Gousea.coert
Wood also Is 1■ British hands. Eng-
lish and New Zealand troops perform-
ed the task and during the Oghting
repulsed heavy German counter-
attacks.
Oouseaueoart Wood 1s on the high
ground northwest of Gouseaucourt,
which lige ;bout 3% miles north et
,Epehy. This is a vantage point of
substantial value to Field Marshal
Hang's men.
Tne prfneipal activity Monday was
In the area around Gouzesucourt.
The high ground overlooking Gou-
seaucourt and the wood of the same
name to the northwest were raptur-
ed. The British guns from this sec-
tion are able to direct an enfilading
Ore on the enemy positions to the
south. Although little strips of
ground have been gained here and
there along the battle lines that otr-
sag their way across Artois and Pi-
cardy, the British troops generally
were stationary Monday. A hes•: y
rain, whipped alone by a chilly wind
has covered the battlefield with a
e•,ating of mud. This, in a country
badly torn up by shells. of itself
would necessarily result in a slower
ricvement, even If it were not neces-
sary for the advanced troop, to con-
solidate their positions. In actions of
manoeuvre, such as the British as
well as the French to the south are
engaged in, pauses of this kind are
Inevitable.
Meanwhile fresh German divisions
have made their appearance in this
region. so It may be expected that the
resistance will become stiffer. As a
matter of fact not a great deal of
ground remains to be captured be-
fore the Germans will be pushed back
completely on the Hindenburg line.
Generally speaking, the British ar-
mies are now about five miles away
from the centre of the German's
much -boasted defence system.
The Germans are having a most
uncomfortable time, tor the British
guns, In addition to laying their
shells on the Germans between the
British infantry positions and the
Hindenburg line, are vigorously ham-
mering the enemy's rear. The Brit-
ish artillery, tiring on the forward
enep> t argsyy has deafer; • greet
havoc.
Where the British troops have ad-
vanced they have at many times
come upon patches of ground wbere
torn bodies of men. broken machine-
guns, dented helmets, equipment,
cartridge cases and clips are all
mixed up together as though they
had passed through some gigantic
mangle.
This is the toll the British artil-
lery takes when the foe leaves his
machine -runners in pockets for
rear -guard actions.
The enemy has by no means even
started to recover from the shocks
he has received day after day since
the British offensive began, and it is
considered more than likely that new
divisions have been thrown in
through the desire to stiffen the Ger-
man morale, quite as much as stiffen
the line for a time.
Past records show that the enemy
will not get out except when be is
pushed out. Thus, he takes every
opportunity available to destroy what
he has not time to save.
In Flanders the British have gain-
ed another 1,500 yards to the west
of Wytsebeete and from reliable
sources It is learned tbat the Ger-
mane have removed virtually all their
artillery to the east of the River Lye
to cover the lines they held prior to
their April offensive.
West of the Lys the Germans had
left only old of captured guns which
they bad planned to destroy or
abandon when the time tame.

The Mans are perhaps the best
dancers in the world. One of the
most euriooe dancer that they prac-
tice is oar representing a tide rising
oo a reef. The idea to be conveyed
Is that of a tide gradually rising on
a reef till at length there remains
only a bath, coral tale, round wbictl
the angry breakers rage, flinging
their white foam on every side. At
first the dancers form 1B long iines
and approach silently, to represent
the quiet advance of the waves.
After a while the linea break up Into
smaller companies, which advance
with ontlptread bands and bodies bent
forward to represent rippling wave-
lets, the tiniest wave* being repre-
sented by ehildren. Quicker and
quicker they came on. now advanc-
ing, now retreating, yet, like true
waves, steadily progressing and grad-

imaginary islet round which they
play or battle after lbs manner of
breakers, springing high In mid-air
and flinging their arms far above
their beads to repres'nt the action
of spray. Aa they leap and toss their
heads the soft white mast or native
cloth -which, for greater effect, they
wear round the waist, whence It
floats in long scarf -like ends-trem-
