By mail) Though the war i over, residents of the de vastated districts of France are daily fleeing from bursts of shell and shrapnel. The new menace is caused by the small grass and swamp fires which are following an unusually dry period in Northern France, which frequently set off the shells that have been piled up to be hauled away -and exploded in some safe place. Major H. C. Greene, of Boston, Mass., had a thrilling ride and nar rowly escaped a hail of shrapnel on his way from St. Quentin to Laon this week as a result of one of these fires. A French woman working in a field near Bouconville was painfully gassed and considerable property dam age has been done. In the vas, desolate fields, thous ands of unexploded shells have been picked up by German prisoners and though there are details hauling them away and setting them off in remote valleys every day, there are still long ranks of them everywhere. Sparks from locomotives and from small fires where battlefield rubbish is being burned, occasionally sot fire to patches of dry weeds and the accidental bursts are numerous. Roads passing places where shells are bring set off are guarded but it is from the accidental blasts that the danger comes. Major Greene, was driving along a road to one of the villages where he has a committee at work, when a small prairie fire reached stray shells Just over a hill near the road. A frag ment whizzed near his head. He put on full speed but several other ex plosions followed quickly and one piece of shrapnel tore through the top of his automobile. When he reached safety he made a circuit of the dis trict and warned the residents not to enter the road until the grass fire had burned out. The French woman who was gassed was almost a quarter of a mile away from the bursting shell, but in a val ley. She was rushed to one of the Red Cross stations and was found to be painfully burned but not internally injured. Residents of the Alsne dis trict are depending upon the early rival of the Fall rains to end this danger, which has been the most ser ious faced -since the work of recon struction began. Berlin.
