WITNESS TELLS OF
NORTH SEA BATTLE
Berlin (via Wlrelesa to gayvllle),
June 21. 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.

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."
