BY A CANADIAN

DESTRUCTION DONE BY AVA

OVER II MEN WERE KILLED
Craft Which Recently Raided the
East Coast of England, Dropping
Bombs on Cities.

London, June For the first time
on record a Zeppelin in the air has
been destroyed by an aviator in an
aeroplane. Reginald j. Warneford, a
young Canadian sub-lieutenant in the
royal navy, who mastered aeroplaning
only this summer, has performed the
feat, and tonight is somewhere with
ing the British lines, while a Zeppelin
lies in ruins, sprawled on the roof and
ground of an orphanage near Client.
Falling blazing mass after being
struck by the young aviator's bombs,
it's crew of % men were killed, as were
also several occupants of the orphan
age buildings.
The theory is advanced that this
Zeppelin was the craft which raided
the east coast of England last night,
for the fact that it was in the air
over Belgium, between Client and
Brussels, at o'clock in the morning,
leads to the belief that it was return

MINING NEWS

The paramount event in the north
western mining world is the contro-
versy between the American Smelling
and Refining company and the Her
cules Mining company relative to ore
treatment rates, which has resulted in
an indefinite suspension of operations

Burke, Idaho, the property having
been closed.
Copper men are expecting a greatly
increased activity in the copper mar
ket New York advices quoted electro
lytic copper at 10 Is to 10 IL cents.
One telegram stated there is an in
quiry in the market for 100,000,O00
pounds of copper metal, probably in
connection with war orders or con-
templated war orders. There is much
jubilation in mining circles over the
improved copper outlook.

POSTAL SAVINGS
IMPROVE SERVICE
EVERY PERSON, OVER 10 YEARS
OF AGE, FOREIGNER OR NOT,
CAN BANK IN POST OFFICE.
RURAL DISTRICTS BENEFITED
Leaflet Printed in % Foreign Lam
guages Describing New Plan Soon
to Be at Each Post Office-Net
Gain of Deposits 100000

Washington.-Every person in the
United States 10 years old or over
may open an account in a postal saw
ings bank after July 1, according to
an instructive leaflet on the postal
savings system just issued by Post
master General Burleson. This impor-
tant extension of the service will be
made possible by permitting persons
living in communities so sparsely set
tied as not to justify the designation
of their local postoffice as regular pos
tai savings banks to open accounts by
mail
Governor Dockery, third assistant
postmaster general, who has direct
supervision of postal savings, was sc
impressed by appeals from all over the
country to open postal savings ac
counts by mail that he took up the
task some weeks ago of working Out
feasible and safe method for meeting
the demand.
Under the plan adopted by the post
master general for opening accounts
by mail an intending depositor resid
ing where there is no regularly des
ignated postal savings bank will ap
ply to his local postmaster, who will
see that necessary identification dat;
is prepared and forwarded to a near
by postoffice authorized to accept de
posits. The intending depositor will
then be given permission to forward
his first and subsequent deposits b.
money order or registered mail direc
to the postmaster at the banking poin
for which receipts or certificates will
be issued He may withdraw all o
any part of his postal savings by mai
and on demand together with any in
terest that may be due him.
The new leaflet points out that an.
person 10 years old or over may opel
an account in his or her own name
that an account may be opened by
married woman free from any contro
or interference by her husband; tina
postoffice officials are forbidden t
disclose to any person except the dc
positor, the amount of any deposits
that Withdrawals may be made with
out previous notice, and that the gov
eminent guarantees to repay all dc
posts on demand with accrued intel
est.
The leaflet will soon be printed Il
80 foreign languages for distribution
through local postoffices. The foreign
born citizen has taken very kindly t
postal savings and literature in hi
own language will be of great assist
ance to him.
Postal savings receipts have broker
all records the last year. During tn
eight months prior to April l Their
was a net gain in deposits of $4,000
600, as against a gain of 100000
for the same months the year before
Thousands of new accounts have BEEF
opened and the millions made up large
ly of hidden savings have been turne
back into the channels of trade just a
time when there was pressing dc
mand for every dollar.

'In the last few days about 5000

dispatch, and since then trains have
been running very irregularly. The or
