Champagne, Verdun, Craonne. Yesterday, with another correspondent, I luccored an aviator In distress. We vere rilng from one part of the zone to an other In a press ,car when we saw a light ing plane circling low as If seeking a land ing. Knowing that at the point In question there could be no other reason than some thing amlRS to cause an aviator's descend ing, we watched until the airplane disap peared behind a clump of trees close to the ground. A bend In the rond revealed the machine In the center of a vast field and the aviator standing beside his "avion," . waving his hand. Wo turned r car eharply from the road into the field and made the 400 yards toward him (n a Jiffy. He was perhaps twenty-two, and typically Latin In physiognomy, gar'jed in a fur jacket nnd an aviator's skull cap. "What country Is this" he asked. Coun try meaning. In literal translation from the French, the cantonment or section of prov ince. Answering him. he said "Merci. I have at mechanical defect nnd yet would not have 'landed but for thy, thick fog. De spite the sun shining, T could not see the mitrailleuse before ma up there, go I came down." My fellow correspondent stood guard over the plane while I motored a few milts with the aviator to a town, where the French major In charge sent out. a guard to stand by the machine until morning and arranged for a mechania to overhaul the motor. The aviator thanked me profusely, and I told him his thanks were due to the Eveniko Ledoer and would be duly transmitted.. officials her belteva th Crown Prince, Whose army la ontimltA tho nnlnt li,. tk.

BAKER'S ANNOUNCEMENT Secretary Raker's announcement on the engagement read: The War Department has received a "'"patch from tn commanding general of tho American expeditionary forces which states thnt before daylight on No yember 3 a salient occupied for Instruc tion by a company of American infantry was raided by Germans. The enemy put down a heavy fire, cut ting off tho salient from tho rut of tho line. Our losseB are three killed, fvo wounded and twelve captured or missing. The losses of the German aro un known. One wounded Oerman was taken prisoner by the Americans. Counting sailors taken from merchant ships sunk and others, there are now about 120 prlsonors In Germany. The twelve taken Saturday, howeer, are the first In fantrymen from these shores to find their way to tho Teuton detention camps. General Pershing has told the War De partment that his men are In excellent physical shape and that they were making great headway In the training under ex perienced French ofllcers and that all that was needed to thoroughly acclimate them to their surroundings was gunfire from tho enemy. This they have now experienced and la considered the finishing course of the first arrivals on French soil.

With the exception of the briefest notation In the General Ftaff report, no details have como out hero with regard to tho capture of the first American troops In France. The official bulletin Bays they were made prisoner In the region of tho Rhlne-Marne Canal, In the section of tho front defended by the German Crown Prince's Army. While the newspapers have played up the capture of the-Amerlcans In their headlines, the only comment Is made by the LOkal Anzelger under tho caption, "Good Morning, Boys!" The newspaper then says: "Three cheers for tho Americans! Clever chaps they are, ft cannot be denied. Scarce ly have they touched the soil of this putrl fled Europe when they already are forcing their way Into Germany. Before long they will cross the Rhine and also enter our fortresses. That Is express-train speed and American smartness. "It Is our good fortune that wo are equipped to receive nnd entertain numerous guests and that we shall be able to provide quarters for these gentlemen. However, wo cannot promise them doughnuts nnd jam, and to this extent they will be obliged to recede from their former standard of living. They probably will become reconciled to this, for soldiering Is ever a risky business. Above all, they will find comfort In the thought that they are rendering their al mighty President, Mr. Wilson, valuable services. Inasmuch as It Is assarted he Is anxious to obtain reliable information con cernlog conditions nnd sentiments in bel ligerent countries. "In this way he will obtain first-hand In formation about things In Germany. "As Americans are accustomed to travel In. luxury and comfort, we assume that these advance arrivals merely represent courlem for larger numbers to follow. Wo are 'sure the latter also will come and be gathered In by us. At home they believe they possess the Biggest and most cotossnl everything, but such establish ments as we have hero they have not seen. "Look here, my boy, hero Is tho big firm of Hlndenburg and Company with which you want to compete, Look at Its accomplishments and consider whether It would not bo better to haul down your sign and engage in somo other line. Per haps your boss, Wilson, will reconsider his present line of business before wo grab more of his young people." V4JULjyiM inmirnrmnnrniinr PROUD TO HAVE GIVEN SON TO NATION'S CAUSE GLIDDEN, la..
