Objective and Pro- eeed to Achieve It. LONDON, Aug. ?.--Major-General ,laurice, of the War Office, said that the British commander's next move in Flanders was to determine another objective. and then, atter , the cus- tomary process of preparation, to proceed similarly to achieve :it. "In eases of this kind," said the director of military operations, "the objective line depends mainly upon the range of the artillery. The at- tacks must be patient and methodi- cal. In this way we can gain ground and inflict heavy losses on the enemy without heavy losses to ourselves. That is the system used at Arras and at Messines, and the one now being used in Flanders. "In this week's battle we co-oper- ated with the; French.

No Irish or Canadian troops participated." German U-I3oat Smashed., AN ATLANTIC PORT, Aug. 7.— The destruction of a German subma- rine by means of a bomb dropped from a battle plane after the U-boat had disclosed its presence by launch- ing a torpedo at a large passenger ship, was described by passengers on the vessel on arrival, here. The Ship, according to some of the passengers, was escorted out of port by neutral battle planes, which worked in relays from a mother ship closely following. The appear- ance of the wake of a torpedo, which swept by the vessel at a distance of about forty yards, was the signal for a concerted attack on the subma- rine by three of the flyers. The drop- ping of a bomb was followed by an immense fountain of water, which the passengers said was filled with pieces of wreckage. Premier Defines Position. MONTREAL, Aug. 7.—Sir Lomat Collin, Premier of Quebec, who has been absent from the province for several weeks, made the following declaration last Thursday regarding the political situation: "The attitude of the Province of Quebec is sincere.

A very interesting paradox b the one concerning an ordinary wagon !Wheel, which is solid and rigid, yet, when las- toned on its axle on a wagon, when the wagon moves part of the cireulnfer- epee of the wheel which is in contact with the ground is for an instant at absolute rest, vvlaile the paint directly, perpendicular to it is 11ying along at a high rate of 'speed. The two points horizontal with the center of the wheel; are traveling pretty fast, but only half as fast as the topmost point, and a* the 'upgoing horizontal point increases Stn sped the downgoing one slows up until it is at rest for a moment when in contact with tine ground. Yet the wheel is one solid piece and there are only two points -going at the same rate of speed at the same time.

In the same interest it now offers "glaze" for "sleet." The official description of sleet is small globules of rain that freeze before they strike the ground. When the rain freezes on trees and buildings the' condition is a "glaze," and when the glaze is severe and there is a strong wind it is an "ice storm.'
