WITH BALLOONS.
The Germans Seem 10 Have Solved Aerial Nayiga-
ton and are Using it Upon the Russian
Frontier-Electric Search Lights Used al
Night-Bllets Won't Reach Them.

Sr. PETERSBURG, March 30.-The
presence OF balloons over the forest and
encampments In Poland is becoming
more frequent than ever and this fact
is causing much indignation among
army officers, who are helpless to pre-
vent military secrets from becoming
known 10 the German officers, who are
known TO be taking observations from
height that places them beyond the
reach OF any bullets aimed at them.
One OF these balloons from the Ger
man frontier recently appeared at Kov-
no. 1t hovered above the fortress there
until the officer in command became so
greatly exasperated that he ordered
some OF the soldiers to fire at the bal
loon, and II possible to bring 1t to the
ground.
Had the soldiers been able to hit the
big siken flag floating so high In the air
and make hole in IL, it would mean a
horrible death for its occupants, but the
range was too great and the powder
burned in the attempt was lost. The
Germans continued their observations,
in no way bothered by the firing, and
when they had concluded they returned
whence they came.
The impression grows stronger daily
that the Germans have at last solved
the long studied problem OF aerial navl-
CATION. These balloons that have APP
peared over various places In Poland
are under perfect control. A few nights
ago the inhabitants OF Warsaw were
startled by an intensely bright light
that fell from the sky upon their city.
All eyes were turned upward but moth
ing could be seen save path OF light.
Many people in their excitement
thought IL was a comet In close proX-
unity to the earth and were greatly
frightened. Suddenly the ray OF light
swept in another direction, and when
the eyes became accustomed TO the
darkness that followed they could see
far up in the sky balloon. Then IL
dawned upon the people that II was an
electric search light that had caused
the brilliant illumination, and that the
Germans were continuing their OBJ
servations OF Russian defences with It's
aid.
The balloon remained over the city
until one o'clock in the morning when
the light was eXtinguished, and the
balloon heading westward toward the
frontier of Prussia, disappeared.
Reports OF similar occurrences have
been received from Sosnoyisty and 9TH
er places along the frontier. The bal
looms come from Prussian Silesia in the
night time and projected the rays Of
powerful search lights In every direc-
ton.
