Paris, Oct. 22—Furious counter attacks by the allies toward Cour trai, in an attempt to cut off the German forces operating near Nieuport, Dixmude and Ypres, are reported from the north. High praise is given to the valor of the Belgian forces under King Albert that are fighting along the Y r ser river. The fighting is going on night and day with attacks being made by land, sea and air. Thus this mighty conflict, which began on September 12. as the battle of the Aisne, has taken on an aspect and a magnitude hitherto unknown in history. Villages Are in Ruins. More than 50 towns and villages have been wiped out entirely or ruined by the fighting, particular ly by the artillery fire. Artillery duels have been a stirring feature of the hostilities in the extreme north. In these long range fights with heavy guns many uon-com batauts have been killed. There is a confident feeling in French military circles that the English channel expedition of the Germans has failed and that from now on they must act upon the de fensive. It would not come as a surprise to the French and British if the whole northern front of the Ger man army suddenly retired to a new fortified position which al ready has been prepared. It is officially claimed by the war office that the advantage has been with the allies during the past 60 hours of fighting. However, the hostilities on the Belgian border are not yet definitely decided. FOREIGN POETS WILL BE BOYCOTTED IN GERMANY D'Annunzio and Maeterlinck Are Among Those on List. London. Oct. 22—The Berlin • I Vcrr.ucrts' r * announces that* a boycott is to be placed on foreign poets. Among the first that will be boycotted are Gabriel d'Annun zio and Maurice Maeterlinck. The Germans, it is said, have conclud ed that neither the Italian nor Bel gian poet is a man of any particu lar genius, and that boycotting their works will be no great loss to German readers. Both these writers, since the war began, have showed marked hostility to the Germans, and num erous German journals, "Vor waerts" says, are recommending that their readers banish d'An nunzio and Maeterlinck from their book shelves.

"One Eye Open." Some years ago in London a French man stepped into a hansom and was asked: "Where do you wish to go?" "One eye open," he replied. "Right," said cabby, who understood nothing and drove off. After a time, same question, tame reply. Finally the driver descended and demanded further information. "One eye open." still was the an swer. Cabby farious. A crowd assem bled, a policeman appeared on the scene and demanded the whole story. Then the mystery was solved.
