ENGLISH ARE Dis

ZEPPELIN R Al D.
PROVED RUMOR.

LONDON, March PA small town
in the south of England, which was
ordered to take the usual military pre-
cautions on the occasion OF one of
the recent false alarms regarding Yep
pelin raiders, lived for nearly twenty
four hours under martial law which
prevented anyone from even going into
the streets-all because somebody in
London forgot to notify the local au-
thorities that things were all right. A
correspondent in the town gives some
details of this occurrence, mention Of
which in the newspapers was forbid
den by the censor.
Il arrived home late in the evening
after visit to London to find my
wife and the maids huddled in a cir
Gle in tn cellar scullery. The light
of Pickering candle fell on their
pallid faces. The rest of the house
was in darkness. SO were all the
streets. Our special constables had
valiaatly dashed forth at the first
alarm and turned out all the street
lamps. In some cases they had adopt
ed the simpler method of smashing
them.
If it we're not for fear of the CEN
scr, could tell great deal more
about our Zeppelin night. 1t pro-
duced many stirring scenes. The la
dies who hurried out into the cold,
dim world, each with baby clutched
in one hand and bag full of belong
ings in the other, will not soon forget
it.
THE night really lasted all the
next dag as well, and the local milk
men who were coming in from the
country were not admitted 20 our be-
leagured streets. While we were shut

Our Zeppelin night was rather a
mystery, for nobody knew just how ii
began. We never knew, for instance,
why the streets were blocked. l be-
lieve the Germans are very clever, but
so far as known, they have never
threatend to bring their Zeppelins in
on wheels. Nor can we find out why
the Inspector of Markets, local Of
fetal well known to everybody, was
refused admission to the town where
he was born and bred.
The policeman on our beat said
days afterward that it was false a.

had forgotten to telephone down to
release them from the martial law
hurriedly ordered on the first rumors
of a raid. Anyway, for twenty-four
hours we all really remembered that

odor of burning paint. The iron deck
chartered and groaned under the de-
mands of the engines and the ship
gained Roadway.
Suddenly the captains shoulder
gave lurch, his arms shot down, the
boy, thrown off his balance, fell
against the bulwarks, and the ship
swerved in half circle on new
course, Gradually the speed rose 10
thirteen, fourteen, fourteen and half
knots. The captains face relaxed in
to a smile.
What if the engine should break
down? thought the boy, as his eyes
again sought that distant white wake.
In the long stern chase the same
thought often came to the captain,
but his face showed nothing but
quiet interest and his hands held
strong on the wheel. Smaller and
smaller grew the pursuer, until final
ly it suddenly gave up the chase. Then
came a call down the tube, heavy
sigh of relief from the engineer, ami
the men came tumbling on deck
Good old U-2S' we've beaten her
again, shouted one of the crew gaz-
ing astern.

'U-28" PATROLS
REGULAR BEAT
(By Associated Press.)

ROTTERDAM, April l2.-The Ger
nsan submarine "U-2S", according to
seamen who travel between this port
and England, has a regular beat which
she patrols, between the Mas Light
ship and the North Hinder Practical
ly every day she is on duty along that
route, watching for the railway and
cargo steamers on their way to Hull
or Harwich or Rotterdam. She has a
number of captures to her credit at
this point, although she has not yet
succeeded in getting any of the fast
mail or railway packet boats. Their
speed is superior and they vary their
course on each trip so as TO make Il
impossible for the submarine to lie in
wait along the way.
The following description of the pur-
suit of one of the railway steamers is
published here
THE ship was pounding along at
'welve knots, when suddenly there was
fash of sunlight on the surface of
the sea, maybe two miles away and
the LOOKOUT called sharply 'subma-
rine on the port bowl
There was a sharp command to the
man at the wheel and the ship chang
ed its course. Then quick call down
the tube and the engineer sang out to
his stokers, Beat her up, boys the
U-2S is having another CO..
Down the stokehold tumbled the
deckhands, eager to help with shovel
and oilcan. The water jumped in the
gauge, the safety valves showed signs
of torment there was a smell of heat
ed bearings. the ship began to culver
while the perspiring crew made bets
with each other on the race.
THE captain himself took the wheel.
Beside him stood the ships boy watch
ing with fascinated eyes the white wake
which marked the course of the sub
marine, sailing at fourteen knots so
cut them off. Smoke and fire stream
ed from the tunnels and there was 4

a way that only Rome had equaled.
Every contrast is found in Paris,
and all varieties of excellence. Here
is the worlds highest structure, the
Eiffel Tower This huge shaft of steel
is one of the most over-powering
things within the city. Forty drafts
men worked two years on the $4,000
different designs necessary for its 49,
600 sections. Restaurants, shops and
a theatre, are housed upon its steps
and within it's corridors. Ten thous-
and people can gather here at one
time"

lections of the Louvre, were they Of
fered for sale, would bring total
price so stupendous as to be unbeliev-
able. For example, in the gallery Of
Apollo, among other treasures rest
the diamond hilted sword of Bonaparte
valued at four hundred thousand dol
lars, the famous Regent diamond val
ued at three million dollars, the gems
of many a beauteous queen of France,
and the swords and spurs OF Charlie
'magne.
"A life time might be spent in study
here, and libraries might be written
upon the treasure which the Louvre
houses. In the hall of sculpture,
stands the peerless Venus of Melos,
thing more ravishing than any other
Y
this hall, there are many pieces, of
antiquity and of more modern times,
the loss of any one of which would be
irreparable. Yet, the strange people
of this city, fired with enthusiasm for
communistic theory, mined the Lou
vre, poured petroleum over it and
prepared to destroy with gun powder
what it had taken the world more than
twenty-five hundred years to produce.
Paris is over rich in the possession
of the beautiful, the impressive, and
the magnificent. It's famous buildings
make an almost amending list. Richest
among the worlds theatres. is the
Paris home of Opera, without an arch
itectural delight, within fascinating
inspiration in snow-white marble,
onyx, jasper, malachite and bronze.
It's famed grand stairway is fitting
prelude to the highest moods that can
be produced by the music on its stage.
And there is not wanting strong
element of gruesome and terrifying
"reminiscences in this glorious city. The
traveller stands amidst the wide sweep
of the Place de Concorde, Place Of
Peace, and he thinks that here be-
fore an assembled beastial mob, the
razor blade of the guillotines rose and
fell, while head after head, mid
bitter jest and song, rolled from the
CORY machine into the great common
basket and the quiverng trunks were
corded at it's side. Age and youth and
loneliness were sacrificed to british
passion on this now serene square in

PARIS IS THIRD
CITY Of WORLD
GAY PAREE A. PROMINENT CITY
BEFORE REST OF EUROPE GOT
ITS START
City Has History That Blends HOr-
ribIe With Beautiful Past.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 10
Situated at the cross roads of south
western Europe, at the meeting place
of the great natural highway leading
from the Mediterranean to the Allan
tic through the Rhone Valley, and
from the Iberian Peninsula to the
heart of Europe through Western
France, Paris became a toll-taker from
the world before most of the modern
cities of Europe were born, accumui-
ating that wealth, that culture, that
love of the beautiful, and that wisdom
that can come only when all the
world contributes theI etc."
Thus begins today's lesson in the
geography of the European war, pre-
pared by the National Geographic So
ciety. The statement then continues:
In population Paris ranks third
among the cities of the earth, with
more people than Washington, Mexico
City Rio, Buenos Ayres, and Santiago
together. 1t is the worlds capital in
many respects-its art treasures sur
pass those of any other city; its fash
ions dominate the civilized world and
even influence the uncivilized; its Ian
guage is the court tongue of The earth ;
its history is panorama Of the story
of civilization from the days of the
Goth and the Vandal down to the
present
In the heart of the city stands one
of the worlds most noted buildings
the palace of the Louvre. 1t is the
priceless art museum of France; ant

DANISH BUTCHERS SUPPLY
GERMANS WITH HORSE
MEAT
(By Associated Press,)

COPENHAGEN, April ia large
increase in the demand for horse meat
to be sent to Germany is noted in the
Danish markets, and prices paid are
higher than ever known before.
This is a surprise to the horse
butchers, as it had been supposed that
the demand for horse flesh would bs
more than supplied by carcasses OF
animals killed in battle. But accord
ing to the Danish butchers, the meat
of horses killed in battle has been
generally found unfit for consumption
and the carcasses are now burned or
sold to soap manufacturers.

Khaki.clad Women Salute.

The number of women in uniform
of various kinds has been attracting a
good deal of attention recently, and
the action of women in khaki who sa-
Lutte army officers in the street has
been commented upon. 1t appears
that those who salute do so on their
own initiative and that the practice
is quite against the spirit of the
Women's Volunteer reserve and of the
Women's Reserve ambulance, two of
the most prominent of women's corps
The uniform of the Women's Hos
pital corps Is khaki color and was so
before the war office gave them recog-
milton. The yeomanry nurses also
wear khaki and men who are back
from the front and know what both
these corps have done in Belgium and
France are said to pay the tribute Of
salute to all women in khaki. French
and Belgian officers, in particular are
quick to offer this courtesy.-London

According to Notice.

During sham fight which constitut-
ed part of a certain infantry bat
talion's training for the war COM
pany was told off to follow up the re-
treating enemy" For this purpose
the pursuers, who had been having
a strenuous time, had to cross a fairly
wide river, and were marched to the
nearest bridge, which was about four
miles away. Imagine their disappoint
ment on arriving to find this notice
attached to the bridge of the "ene-
my: This bridge is blown up" But
the officer in command of the pursuers
was a man of action, and promptly
attached notice to one of his leading
men and proceeded to march his force
across the bridge. They had almost
crossed it, when an umpire suddenly
appeared, frantically waving his hand
and exclaiming: 1.-THE bridge is blown
up; all these men are drowned!' The
commanding officer made no reply, but
simply pointed to his notice, which
read: This company is swimming
across!"

Bathing Trains for Soldiers.

All the commanders of the various
armies now fighting recognize how ex-
tremely important in every way is
cleanliness. The better the sanitary
arrangements and the cleaner that
everything is kept the less chance is
there Of cholera and other diseases
spreading and causing more deaths
than do rife bullets and Shells
Special arrangements are made at
the front by the commanders of the
allies to enable the soldiers to have
hot baths as frequently as possible.
The Germans have gone a step
farther though, for they are now u.s.
ing specially constructed bathing
trains which travel as near the front
as possible
Each train consists of locomotive,
tender, water tank car, three cars fit
ted up with hot baths, and a number
of cars fitted up with separate COM
partments where the soldiers can have
cold shower baths.
The tank car contains $500 gallons
of water and each train allows so sol.
diers at time to have hot bath.

HAD THE LAUGH ON HIMSELF
Mlser Got Away With the Oatmeal
and Also Succeeded In Saving
Precious Whisky.

]. F. Hartz of Detroit, the doyen Of
the American Surgical Trade associa-
ton, said at the fitch annual con-
vention in New York:
THE war has kited the price of car
bolic acid up to $1.65 pound-it sold
before the war at nine cents pound.
The hospitals that use carbolic acid
now have to be as economical and
sparing as old Josh Lee.
"Old Josh Lee was a miser, and he
breakfasted every morning on oat-
meal. To save fuel he cooked his
weeks supply of oatmeal on Sundays.
This supply, by the time Saturday
came around, was pretty stif and
tough and hard to down.
One Saturday morning old Josh
found his oatmeal particularly unap-
petizing. 1t had a crust on 1t like
iron. He took mouthful of the cold,
stiff mixture-then he half rose, think
ing he'd have to cook himself some
eggs.
But he hated to give in. He hated
to waste that oatmeal. So he took
out the whisky bottle, poured a gen.
erous glass and setting it before his
plate, he said:
" Now, Josh, If you eat that oatmeal
you'll get this whisky; and If you
don't you won't
"The oatmeal was hard to consume,
but Josh, with his eye on the whisky,
managed it. Then, when. the last
spoonful was gone, he grinned broad
ly, poured the whisky back into the
bottle again, and said:
Josh, my son, l. fooled you that
time, you old IDIOT Washington
Star.
