DOCTOR TAKES CANADIAN OFFICER'S DEPOSITIONS.

The Germans have, in the last week, introduced a method of placing their opponents hors de combat by the use of asphyxiating and deleterious gases, and they employ these poisonous met:1ods when their attack, according to the rules of war, might otherwise have failed. - LoRn KITCHK'ER.

\Vhen Lord Kitchener made tbis pointed statenlent in the House of Lords on Tuesday he was thoroughly informed of the nature of the poison()US gases to the use of which our desperate enemv has resorted.

Dr: J. S. Haldane, F.R.S., was sent to Franct3 to obserYe the effects of the gases, with a view to the adoption of the most efficacious means of resisting them.

In a letter to Lord Kitchener, issued to tht3 Press last evening by the War Office, Dr. Haldane says :-

A correspondent of the Exchange, with t~e Briti h Army in Xorthern F~·ance, l~elps_ us m a letter written on l\Ionday mght t.o ~-eahse the

~ horrible e.ffect on the unfortunate nctHr;ts of the latest form of German savagery. He wntes :-

lllue in the face. On examining the blood with the spectroscope and

lJy other means I ascertained that the blueness was not due to the presence of any abnormal pigment.

There was nothing to account for the blueness (cyanosis) "'Dd struvgle for air but the one fact that they were suffering from acute bronchitis, such as is caused by inhalation of an irritant gas. Their stat~ments were that when in the trenches they had been 0 erwhelmed by an irritant. gas produced in front of the German trenches, and carried towards them by a gentle breeze. " One of them died shortly after our arrival. "A post-mortem examination was conducted in

our presence by Lieutenant :McNee, a pathologist by profes::::ion, of Glasgow Uni\'ersit:y. The examination showed that death was due to acute bronchitis and its secondary effects.

NO DOUBT WHATEVER. " There was no doubt that the bronchitis and

accompanying slow asphyxiation were due to the irritant gas.

" Lieutenant McNee had also examined the body of a Canadian sergeant who had died in the Clearing Station from the effects of the gas. In this case also \'ery acute 'bronchitis and oedema of the lungs caused death by asphyxiation.

"A deposition by Captain Bertram, 8th Canadian Battalion, was carefully taken down by Lieutenant McNee.

''Captain Bertram was then in the Clearing Station suffering from the effects of the ~as and from a \\ound.

"From a support trench, about 600 yards from the German lines, he had observed the gas. He saw first of all a white smoke rising from the German trenches to a height of about three feet.

DRIFTING GREENISH CLOUD. "Then in front of the white smoke appeared

a greenish cloud, which drifted along the ground to our tlenches, not rising more than about seven feet from the ground when it reached our first trenches.

11 Men in these trenches were oblig-ed to leave, and a number of them were killed by the effects ()f the gas. -

He made a counter-attack about 15 minutes after the gas came over, and sa.w 24 men lying dead from the effects of the gas on a small stretch of road leading from the advanced trenches to the sunuorts. b th till " He was himself much affected y e gas s

One suggestion which. finds considerable support is that a tax of 5s. in the £, or even more, should be imposed, specially ear-marked to provide pensions for maimed ~oldiers or soldiers' widows and dependants.

The House ()f Commons is now prepared for the introduction in the Budget ()f the taxation of war profits.

When Mr. Asquith was at ... Tewcastle, he alluded to the fact that the Government intended to limit the profits on armaments. Of course, it is quite impossible to specialise on the taxation of one branch of trade ouly; the principle must be appli~ to all. Here .Mr. Lloyd George comes in.

FIVE MORE NEUVE CHAPELLE V.C.'s.

--Three Men Die In I goorance Of

The Honour Done To Them. -·

AN INDIAN HERO. 7 V.C.'s, 6 D.S.O.'s, 9 Military

Crosses In Same Engagement }""ive more V.C.'s to heroes of Neuve Chapelle

were announced in last night's London Gazette, in additiou to six D.S.O.'s and nine Military Crosses w0n in the same engagement.

V.C.'s had previously been awarde~ to Private Edward Barber and Lance-Corporal W. D. Fuller, ooth of the Grenadier Guard . for their valour at ' Neuve Chapelle. so that seven of the coveted Victoria Crosses have already been awarded to men who took part in the fighting that dislodged the Germans from Neuve Chapelle.

Three of the five new V.C.'s are dead. One was an Indian rifleman who was killed while earn-ing the medal. . .

The names of the men and the officwl descnptions of their g~llantry are given below :-

Company Sergeant-:\lajor Harry Daniels, 2nd Batt. Rifle Brigade. and Acting Corporal Cecil Reginald Koble, 2nd Batt. Rifle Brigade,

For most conspicuous hravery on Marc.h 12 at Neuve Chapelle. When their battalion W!LB impeded in the advance to the attack by mre entanglements, and subjected to a ve!Y severe machine-gun fire, these two me!! volunta~1ly rushed in front and succeeded in euttmg the Wires. They were both wounded at once,·and Corporal .Toble has since died of his wounds.

Private William Buckingham: 2nd Batt. Leicestershire Regiment.

For conspicuous acts of bravery and de~otion to duty in rescuing and rendering aid to the wounded whilst exposed to heavy fire, especially at ... .,.euve Chapelle on March 10 and 12. •

Private Jacob Riv-ers: ·1st Batt . • -ott~ and Derbyshire Regt.

For most conspicuous bravery at . "'eu~e Chapelle on March 12, when he, on his own initiative, crept to within a few yards of a very large number of the enemy who were massed on the flank of an adva.need company of his battalion, and hurled bombs on them. His action caused the enemy to retire, and so relieved the situation.

Private Rivers performed a second act of great bravery on the same day, similar to the first-mentioned, again causing the enemy to retire. He wa..'l killed on this occasion.

Rifleman Gobar Sing Negi: 2nd Batt. 39th Garhwal Rifles.

For most conspicuous bravery on March 10 at Neuve Chapelle. During our attack on the German position he was one of a bayonet party with bombs who entered their main trench, and· was the first man to go· round each traverse, driving back the enemy until they were eventually forced to surrender. He was killed during this engagement. .

following officers to be Companion~ of the Distinguished Service Order in recognition of their gallantry and devotion to duty !J-t ... ~euve Chapelle :-Captain J. H. M. Arden, 1st Batt. Worcester Regt.

For oonspicuou.s gallantry and ability on March 12. When the battalion on his right was driven from their trenches he form~d his company under a heavy fire to a flan·k. oounter-attaeked the German right with great determination, and thereby enabled the battalion to reoccupy their trenches.

Captain R. Bastard, 2nd Batt. Lincolnshire Regt. For oonspicuous gallantry on March 10. In the

attaek on the German position he entered their trenches ahead of his company, ha\·ing had to force his way through the entanglements.

Maj<Jr G. T. C. Carter-Campbell, 2nd Batt. The Cameronians .

F<l.r conspicuous gallantry and ability from March 10 to 12. He took over command of the bat}-ali<?n on . March 10. and. although wounded, ma~ta.med w1th great determination the positions ~h1ch had been gained. He had only one survivmg offi.~er to assist him.

Captain H. D. Harington, 2nd Batt. Prince of Wal.es's Own.

For ability and gallantry on March 12. After the enemy had gained temP<Jrary possession of a. portion of our tren~hes he brought a flank fire to bear on them, which saved the situation.

Major L. C. L. Oldfield, 33rd Battery, Royal Field Artillery.

For oonspicuous ability and gallantry on Mareb 10, in oommand of his batt~ry in a-ction, and fol' successful service in cutting wire entanglement&. He took one of his guns t.o within 700 yards of the enem_y, and so greatly facilitated the adYance of our mf an try.

FRENCH ADMIRAL GOES DOWN WITH TORPEDOED CRUISER I

_ADMIRAL STICKS TO . HIS SINKING SHIP.

Leon Gambetta Torpedoed Near Straits of Otranto.

SANK IN TEN ·MINUTES.

All Officers And Many Of Warship's Crew Drowned.

ITALIAN SAILORS' GALLANT RESCUE WORK.

French Admiralty Statement. PARIS, \Vednesday Evening.

The armoured cruiser Leon Gambetta, while cruising at the entrance to the Otranto Straits, was torpedoed on the night of :\Ionday-Tuesday, and sank in ten minutes. ·

All the officers perished at their posts. One hundred and thirty-six of the crew,

eleveri of whom were petty officers, were saved by ships sent to the rescue by the Italian authorities.

The · list of survivors has not yet been received bv the Ministrv of l\·Iarine.-Reuter. · ·

UNABLE TO CALL FOR HELP.

Cruiser's Wireless Installation Paralysed By Explosion.

RoME, Wednesday. The Leon Gambetta. was t-orpedoed 20 miles off

the Italian coast. At the time of the disastet· the ship was

travelling at not more than seven knots, and was on her way to Malta to rendezvous with other cruisers. •

The first torpedo struck her at 1 a.m., and was followed almost immediately by a second, which exploded abreast of the engine room.

The dynamos were wrecked, with the result that the ship was not only plunged in complete darkness, but her wireless installation was also paralysed.

The vessel was therefore unable w call for help.

LAST DESPERATE MEASURE. As a last desperate measure her hows we1e

headed for the shore in the hop_e that she might be beached.

This, howewr, proved impossible, as the cruiser was making water rapidly.

Ten minutes after the Leon Gambetta had l:>een struck she sank.

Two of the b-oats which had been lowered capsized, drovming all on board.

The head of the signal station at Santa Maria di Leuca made a gallant attempt to rescue the crew of the ill-fated ship.

.A. patrolling flotilla attached to the station was cruising near the scene of the disaster:

The attacking vessel was the Austrian submarine U5, commanded by Lieut. Georg Ritter von Trapp.

ftlURSDAY, APRIL 29, 191S.-lage 1t.

Our Portrait is of Mrs. T revis, of 11, Liverpool Rd., Fratton, Portsmouth, who writes:-

" I feel I would like you to know the good your 'Clarke's Blood Mixture ' has done me.

· I suffered . with a

Diseased Cheek Bone

for nearly a. year, and for which I had three operations in hospital, all of which 1Vere absolutely useless. One day quite by accident I read in a news. paper of the W<!nderful cur~' Clarke's Blood Mixture ' had don& for others, Jro I at once decided to .try it for my case. I had been troubled a great ~eal with discharge ·from the bone, and all previous remedies that I had tried failed to srop .it. I ani thank· ful to tell after taking 10 bottles I am completely cured, and

Am Now in the Best of Health.

My one regret is that I did not .hear of 'Clarke's Blood Mixture' before, for I feel confident I should have been spared much suffering through opera. tions."

Do You Suffer from any disease due to impure blood,- such as Eczema, Scrofula, Bad Legs, Abscesses, Ulcers, Clandu· lar Swellings, Boils, Pimples, Sores of any kind, Piles, Blood Poison,

Rheumatism, Cout, etc.? If so, don't waste your time and JI!Oney on useless lotions and messy ointments which cannot get below the s~ace of the skin. What you want and what you must have to be permanently cured is a medicine that will thoroughly free the blood of the poisonous matter which alone is the true cause of all your suffering. Clarke's Blood Mixture is just such -a. medicine. It is composed of ingredients which quickly expel from the blood all impurities from whatever cause arising, and by rendering it clean and pure can be relied upon to effect a lasting cure.

Pace 12.-DAILY SKETCH

POMMERN'S '-GUINEAS" ALL . THE WAY.

Mr. S. B. Joel Gains His First Victory In The Classics.

LET FLY AND SUN FIRE UNPLACED. The T m Thousand Guineas was won all the way

by the favourite. Pommern. He was followed past the post by Tournam·mt and The Vizier.

The blinkered Let Flv caused a lot of t:ouble at the post but he got weli away, only to be done with at the Bushes.

Sunfire did better, but he never looked like getting on terms with Pommern, on whom Donoghue rode a confident race throughout.

This is the first classic race Mr. Sol- Joel has won, and he was naturally delighted.

Tournament was staying on, which could not be said of any of those behind, except, perhaps, Gadabout '

The King's pair ran well for sen~n furlongs, but Friar :Marcu:=; then collapsed, and Sammarco simply was not good eL.ough.

Pomz;neru is in the Derby and St. Leger, and there tsno reason why he should not again beat at Epsom those he met vest.erdav.

The attendance appeared to be quite up to the usual standard, and plenty of khaki was in eYi· dence. •

L:ARAPY11E BEATEN.

The odds laid on the hitherto unbeaten Laramie were easily floored in the Wilbraham Pla.te~ the filly being beaten out of a place. Tillywhim, a surprise winner at the last meeting here, scored cleverly from Clerical Error, who had been sent from the north in company with the Guineas' candidate, Bethlehem.

Some open wagering on the Bretbv Handicap found Llangeinor and Atticus in most ·favour. The former never promised to win, and Atticus was caught in the last hundred yards by- Artist Square. who won by a neck.

There was an unsatisfactory race for the Heath High-weight Handicap, for with a fair field Roseville would have won. He was shut off a furlong and a half from home, and in a bumping finish was only beaten a head by Rockfoil. An objection was lodged against the winner for bumping and boring, but this was overruled.

KINC PRIAM.

The Derby colt, l{ing Priam, made his first. appearance of the season in the Chippenham Plate, and he "·on easily from 1\Iy Prince, though he had to be lYell shaken up a quarter of a mile from home. He is a particularly good-looking colt, and apparently Etays well. He will therefore have many friends for the Derby.

THE MARCH STAKES·

As usual, U1e third stage of the meeting will be rather quiet, but more than usual interest will attach to the March Stakes, as Torloisk is to be gi\·en another chance, while there are a few other useful horses in the entry.

Torloisk failed to stay the mile in the Craven Stakes. h11t those connected with the colt were not at all satisfied with that running.

'Ihe mile and a quarter over which the March Stakes is run is a severe test for a three-year-old at this time of the year, and both at their best I doubt if Torloisk could cope with Great Sport at a difference of six pounds for the two years between them.

Hounam and Polygram will probably run well, but if in condition the conditions are greatly in favour of Great Sport. I should take him to win.

Parana does not look to have a very difficult task in the Newmarket Two-Year-Old Plate, and Pictorial ran well enough at the last meeting to haYe a chance in the Brinkley Welter.

REDFERN FOR AUSTRALIA.

There was a. good crowd at Park Paddocks yesterday morning to see Redfern sold. He realised £5.300, and was bought by Sir W. Cooper for Australia.

The Stock l\larkets remained very q~iet yester- · day but if anything the tone was a little batter on ihe more optimistic tenor of the .news from Flanders. · f.

In the Home Railway market there were buyers o Great Northern deferred and Great Western stoc~c, but the Southern deferred stocks we~e. on offer 1n small amounts. American secunttes further receded, while Canadian Pacific shares recovered

The P. and 0. interim dividend is at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, which ~eans that 5 per cent. is to be distributed now agamst 3! p~r. cent. a year ago. This year, however, the final dtndend in November will only be 5 per cent. as comp~red with 61 per cent. in November last. The adjust· ment i~ made for the conYenience of shareholders, and will no doubt be appreciated by them.

Thomas Tilling, Ltd., increased their profits for the past year by about £5,500, and the dividenil is maintained at 5 per cent. It is stated that the company is extending its business in the provinces.

and colour schemes for small boys and girls ar~ as c~refully thought out as those for grown;ups. ?urmg recent years there has been a genera I 1mprovement in our national sense of colom, and mcthers find it interesting to have their children as gay as garden poppie or their own toy balloons. •

An Effect Of The Small Family. It is not now enough to have children looking

m~rely wholesome in clean white things. Each chdd must have clothes chosen to match its own ~ittle indi\·iduality a11d its own little looks. This . B ene of the results of the smaller fami]v. In I t?e crowded nurseries of other days nobody hat.! t1me to find out that dark-eved Georaiana looked I best in violet or that stm:dy Augu~ta's frocks <mght to be cut square at her handsome littl~ throat. Clean- white all round had to suffice for tho flock-and Georgiana:s out-grown things hatl to be worn up by close-following Augusta, so what was the use of making them individual?

Green is the obvious choice for redhaired children, but the material should be chosen carefully, as greens are apt to fade. Experienced mothers search among the fadeless casement curtain silks and cottons for material for little frocks.

Plain children, of no pronounced colouring, should not be given conventionally pretty clothes. They look better in qu~intly .patterned materi~ls, quaintly ~a~e, ~nd w1t~ ha1r square-cut or tied in some <?strnctlve fashiOn.

Little boys may ha~e their linen overalls made to look like miniature Roman tunics by borderings of red stitchery. Simulated smocks have been invented by a busy mother, the "smocking" b~ing suggested by groupings of coloured cross-stitch ..

A point to remember about bnghtly coloured frocks is that to look well they must be short and simple. One m!ght almo~ make it a rule to use a~ little matenal as possible. The smaller the garment the more intense the colour may be.

It would be a better, happier world if people could be shamed when their blood was loaded with the wastes and poisons which make them gloomy) impatient, and bitter, spoiling the pleasure their life and work should give them.

Most people wait until they have headaches, dizziness, sinking spells, palpitation, oppre~sion, faintness, sleeplessness, yellow skin and eyes, pimples, lack of appetite, indigestion, dyspepsia, or biliousness.

Then they rashly take an ordin-

ary pilJ, which works by irrita ting, forcing and weakenir g the liver. And of course the trouble returns very quickly.

Far wiser to take Cockle's Pills, which gently strengthen the forces. of health by giving the overburdened liver a chance to regain its natural strength, and to keep the blood free froin wastes and potsons.

\Viser still to take Cockle's Pills the first moment your outlook on life is not as cheery as it should be.

The first si~n of trouble is not itzterruption of health. It is Gloom.

The Royal Horse Guards (The Blues) are descendants of Cromwell's famous Roundheads, but assumed their present title after being incorporated in the Royal

Army of Charles II. 'Ihe name of the "Oxford Blues =• .was bestowed upon them in 1690, their Colonel then being the Earl of Oxford.

This Regiment is one ,of the few which still retain the Cuirass, or breastplate of highly polished steel. Quite in keeping with the brilliance of this unique part of their equipment is the pleasing shine of their top boots and harness, which they polish with
