GERMANS ATTACK
AMERICANS AT VAUX
With the American Army on the
Marne. The Oermans at dv1tgr'
Monday launched a violent attack
againat the American position watt
1 01 'bateau Thierry eapeclalK near
ux
The attack came after a moat via
lent bombardment of high explosives
and ga shell throughout the night.
Ihe American troops sought nhelter
wherever It waa available U hen the
enemy Infantry appeared the inerl
So lias 11 pr.M.i, In the eaae of the Iran .warmed out and met the attack.
It la surprising, when we think 0
the age f ltodon, and think of the
tower which William the Conqueror
built ; of the ancient abbey ; of the Nor
man church ; of St. fta rtholomew'a, how
mane of London's most prominent
buildings are les than a hundred years
old, snd how many nf them are quite
recent structures, observe a writer
In London Tit Hits.
Of all the buildings which flank
Whitehall only the Horse Ouarda, the
Banquet halt and the Old Admiralty
existed a hundred years ago. The gov
ernment offices are all new.
Within living memory the house of
parliament, the Thames embankment
and all It flanking buildings, St.
Thoma hospital, the National gallery,
South Kensington museum, the Tate
gallery, the bnv courts, all the big ho
tel and even the present Mansion
bouse bate been built, whilst nearly
sll the bstikt nnd great piles nf corn
menial office in the city sre new,
although the thoroughfare In which
they stand are very old.
A hundred years ago there was no
lllch llolborn, no Shaftesbury atenne,
no Charing Cms road, no Regent
Ktreet or. nl most. It was Juat In the
making and no Trafalgar square.
Kltigiway and Aldwych are streets of
yeatenlay.
Moreover. uch great center) of pop
ulation mi Putney and Mlntion and
llmnpsfciid and Kdmonton eere little
outlying village quite ill oimected
villi Ijondnn, whilst West Until and
WllleKilen had no existence except a

The other night we chanced to ask
sn eminent physliiaa of New York

pe..ple who were truly happy. Ills
rather dogmatic reply waa:
"About one In a hundred."
And this waa not the oplnlbn nf a

by others. It doe not sn of

On Crying In the Theater.

can Magaalae, in her owa words :
"It Is a commonplace of the theater
that the public want, above all thlxuss,
to bo eotertalned But that Is very
far from saying that they want to be
amused. Humor Is by no meaaa the
easiest way to reach the human heart.
There are those who will tell you

can just tell them to tell It to
Sweeney The American public woold

yon make them forget themselves.
Tmo minute you make them forgot

If you can set them to thinking shout
