Enatgn Frommann, young observer aboard tbe Cernian flagship In tbe recent naval battle off Skagerak, today gave tbe United Press the first eye-witness story of the engagement; "In tbe morning the Oerman fleet cruised northward from - Wllbelms- haven," said tbe Oerman ensign. "At four In tbe afternoon our small cruis ers reported sighting an English arm ored cruiser followed by dread naughts. "The Welsbaden and Frankfort were the first ship, to report tbey were engaged. At 6:40 our guns began firing. I observed off to the east four ships of the Queen Ellxa beth class. I could see that the English had the best ships In action at that time. "Big ahell began whistling around us, bursting In tbe water. 'At tbe be ginning the English markmansblp was poor. Tbe enemy aalvoa fell a hundred yard away, Some fell with in 10 feet of us, but our ship waa not touched. 'Throughout the battle we ateamed along at 10 knots In a course parallel to the English, who Jeter turned east ward, so tbe distance between us de creased continually until we were less than sis mile away. While the battle waa In progresa we cruised over a great part of the North sea both fleets continually moving at full speed, with the battle front stretched out t least a hundred miles. "I saw Abe G-Sl sink. It was one of Englsnd's latest ships. A salvo of 16-centlmeter shells hit It aim ultaneously. Tbe crew at once be gan to seek the boats and got away, Then we watched theG-81 turn over, her smokestack dipped and aa she plunged we read tbe number 0-31 die tlnctly. About 7 o'clock I saw the smokestack of another English ship aboot Into the air. She waa ot the Defence class (cruiser of 14,600 tons). "The most thrilling Incidents oc curred in the night engagement fol lowing tbe day battle. After dark the English dreadnaughta were re ported steaming away, so our torpedo boats were sent Into the fight. At 10:18, while steaming southward. our searchlight turned upon an Eng lish armored cruiser quite near. We Immediately fired four salvos. In two minutes the English ship waa ablate. Her magazine caught fire and the sea was lighted by a ghastly white-green flame. A few seconds later she disappeared. We believed this waa the last of the cruiser Black Prince." "None or the German sailors slept or ate during the battle." the enHlgn said. The worst reature, rroin the sailors' standpoint, he said, was that when the gun opened (Ire, especially In salvos, the powder flew In their eyes, making observations oi one s surroundings difficult. It was En sign Frommann'a opinion that the English dreadnaughta retired first. TWICE PROVEN.

Mrs. Amelia Iempke. 4uz r ti Grants Pass, says: "I can not tell you how much I Buffered from rheumatic nalns. There were times when could hardly get around aa I was o stiff and lame. At night I laid awake for hours on account of tbe pains which went from one part of my body to another. I got up In the morning feeling so stiff and lame that It was all I could do to keep up. I tried many rheumatic medicines and also liniments, but without getting the slightest relief. , Doan'a Kidney Pills helped me from the start and almost before I knew It I waa free from the trouble."
