German Aeropla1e
Drops More Bombs
o., City Of Paris

Paris, Oct. s.-A German aeroplane
flying over Paris and the suburbs of
Aubervilliers and st. Denis at 8 O'Clock
this morning dropped two bombs, one
OF which wounded three persons. The
other did no harm.
Hostile air craft usually have
avoided Paris and vicinity early in the
day because of the dangerous atmos-
pheric currents then present. The
French troops stationed in the city and
suburbs have been commanded not to
fire on the aeroplanes because OF danger
to the public from falling bullets.

managed to leave Antwerp after a
weeks survey of the battle, teie-
graphed from The Hague Monday af-
ternoon as follows:
This is the sixth day of the siege Of
Antwerp and the Belgian army IS
fighting with reckless courage. The
government offices openly declared
they expected bombardment of the city
by the middle of the week, but were
resolved to resist to the last tho they
feared this meant destruction of the
city.
"As precaution the boilers of all
the German ships in Antwerp have
been exploded SO as to prevent the use
of the Scheldt and Antwerp as a Ger
man base. The detonations set the
excited Sunday crowd near to panic.
Siege Began Sept. 20.
THE people generally are orderly.
however, and are keeping UP a cheer
full demeanor. The siege of Antwerp
began Sept. IS, with a fierce lombard
ment OF the town of Halines. where the
ancient church was severely damaged.
Next day the town of Lierre was Dom
harded and here. too. the church was
destroyed. In this attack seven citi-
zens were killed and three We're
wounded. The town was hastily
evacuated by the population. but in
the evening the Belgian infantry ar
rived and at last accounts still held the
city.
The next day the city OF Duffel was
bombarded, and here the tall factory
chimneys offered an excellent target.
The population fled to Antwerp. leaN-
ing behind several dead and wounded.
Attack on Outer Forts.
Antwerp is defended by a circle OF
Qualifications, the most important sit
ua.ed between the rivers Nethe, Ruppel
and the Scheldt. After taking Duffel
the Germans attacked this semi circle
OF forts with their heavy artillery.
The retreatins Belgian army destroyed
the bridges across the Nethe.
The Germans spent Sunday trying
to ford the river Nethe under cover OF
the terrific artillery fire.

Most wonderful. however, is the
patient, unfaltering courage of the
average Belgian soldier. who has now
been fighting for nine weeks. Tired,
with hollow eyes unkempt, unwashed
and provided with hasts meals, he Is
spending most of the time in the
trenches. He never complains, but
remains steady under the terrible fire.
Louvain Destroyer Prisoner.
tAntwerp's greatest fear is that the
magnificent church tower of Our Lady
will be the target of the bonlbardment,
and it was proposed to house German
prisoners inside as a protection for the
ancient building.
There is great Indignation against
the German captain who is charged
with having ordered the burning OF
Louvain and who was captured at the
battle Of Oerschot In private life the

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
Tighten the Dark.

Action is our path of escape from much that is unprofitable. if not peril ous. It saves us from idle dreamings. All dreamings are not idle; some are truly beatific visions; but there is a state of dreaming that is unproductive and stultifying. It saves us also from the background of actual horror that lies in the dark places of our minds the useless terrors that will haunt if we yield to them. the utter nihilism of despair, the dread of death, the night hopeless. It is not the doers who give way to such horror. Those who do life's work have no time to waste on Its ipsoluble riddles; but they come presently to find that the fog has cleared while they were working. They cannot explain to others why the rid dle perturbs them less. they have not gained solution that they can formu- late in words; but they have won a living faith.
 What, then, shall the doing be that is to save us? Best of all. it should be thus can we best bring healing to our selves. It should be good work-not necessarily good work in a narrow sense. The kinds and methods of ac- ton are as various as our natures; some of us have only our daily busi- ness, which we can do moro whole heartedly, more honestly. with e greater consideration for all with whom we come in contact. Some car teach others by oratory. by writing. by works of beauty and art; they have g noble opportunity. But the possibil- ity of teaching by action Is open tt all. All can do the right thing. speak. kind words. help others a little oi much; all can speak against injustice islander. lies; all ca meek for tho near est dark place and try to Tighten it.

It must be realized by the thought nzI voter that criticisms and fault finding amount to little unless they are in the Interest of good govern ment, but being well founded the time and the place for action is on election day and at the polls. It should be the high purpose of every taxpayer and voter to do his part in not only stand ing for the best in municipal govern ment. but in insisting upon it and in such cause every vote counts. There is no civic patriotism in remaining away from the polls and as dummy voters permitting the few who have an interest to run things as they please
 It is the big vote which shows a healthy interest, the kind of interest which there should always be in city affairs and with the republican ticket headed by Arthur D. Lathrop the voters of this city. irrespective of party are provided with the opportunity for cbtaining a new order of things after next Monday. They have the chance to strengthen the foundation of the city government by placing in odace those who stand for the highest type ok municipai conduct, and 1t is at the 1y~ndation that the voter must look in IlnGl1G responsibility. Such is not to he eeined. however, through apathy &Md s4ck of interest is an inadequate 4cu9e whenever city matters and of- de1e are under consideration.

CONNECTICUT SHEEP.

In his effort to create greater in- terest throughout Connecticut in the raising of sheep State Dairy Commits sioner Stadtmueller is lending his in- nuence to a task which haa long been urged and which is deserving of all the support it can receive. It is aim ed at the creation of a greater interest in this line of farm business Connecti- cut never raised so many sheep, but what if could raise more, but instead of an increase there has been a de- crease until only about a tenth of the two hundred thousand of some years ago is now raised. Nothing has taken the place of that big decrease and yet there is plenty of opportunity on the farms throughout Connecticut for sheep raising and turning into profit through that means what Is now going to waste.
 Senator Park of Eprague a number of years ago urged before the state senate the importance of increasing the raising Of sheep for the yield of wool, and if Is a we'll known fact that sfnce that time others, including Gov ernor Baldwin, have added their sug- sestions for a greater effort in this di- recffon.
