PARIS, March 22.-While no one
was killed directly by bombs which
Zeppelin airships dropped in Paris
and its environs Sunday, the raid
resulted in the death of one aged wo-
man The sole victim of the hostile
excursion was SO frightened the ex-
plosion of the bombs, several of which
were dropped in the section in which
she lives, she died soon afterwards.
City authorities who spent the day
collecting bombs which failed to ex-
plode, as well as fragments of those
which did exploded, today conducted
chemical analysis of the materials
composing the missiles. From a cur
sorry examination only it was ascer-
tanned that most of the missiles were
incendiary in their nature, containing
a mixture OF phorphoruS, tar and Ben
soine, and being provided with light
ing contrivance consisting of wicked
soaked in petroleum.
AS a result of their Investigations
military authorities at Paris are con-
vinced it was the intention of the Ger
man raiders to destroy the city by fire
and precautions have already been or
dered looking to a return of the raid
ers, who might have succeeded in
starting a serious confiagration but for

fore their object was accomplished.

ENGLAND AND
HOLLAND HAVE
TASK To CARE
FOR REFUGEES
(By Associated Press.l

LONDON, March 22-The problem
of providing employment and proper
habitations for the Belgian refugees
both in Holland and in England is
daily growing more urgent, in the opin-
ion of Percy Alden, Member of Parlia-
ment, who has represented the British
Government in its dealings with the
refugee question since the beginning of
the war.
The number of Belgian refugees in
England is now officially estimated, ac-
cording to a Government statement in
the House of Commons, at 100000, not
including $4,000 wounded soldiers in
British hospitals. This total consists
of $4,000 men, $4,000 women and AZ, 900
children under sixteen.
q feel very strongly" says Mir. Az
den in statement to the ublic that
through lack OF work and proper hus-
ing, these Belgians run serious risk of
returning home at the end of the war
in a demoralized and deteriorated CON
dition. In Holland especially the meth
cd of dealing with the refugees is still
of temporary and unsatisfactory ma
ture; they are living in churches,
schools, barns, sheds and barges, and
the food they are receiving is none too
good. AS to the employment question,
little or no attempt has been made to
deal with it, either in Holland or Eng
land
Il have made several visits to Hol-
land at the request of the President Of
the Local Government Board, to inves-
tigate conditions there. England and
Holland are faced with very awk-
ward task, but a serious attempt will
have to be made, and that soon, to pro-
vide remunerative work and adequate
residence for these people.
My belief is that the next step should
be the building of some thousands of
wooden huts, each containing three
rooms, which could be constructed by
the refugees themselves, and could be
taken to pieces at the end of the war
and transferred to various parts Of Bel
GUM to be used as dwellings until per-
manent homes can be built. The build
ing of the huts could be made to pro-
vide work for many thousand refugees.
| calculate that at least 100000 will
be required for the adequate launching
of this scheme. 1t is the only way
know in which a proper semblance of
family life can be restored to these
Belgians during their temporary exile
from their own country"

the opinion that beans, potatoes and
other varieties of truck have gone

PETROGRAD, March 22.-The Ga

a Russian army since early in the war,

terse information is the text of an Off

approximately $4,000 soldiers, all of
whom are believed to have been TAX
en- prisoners, though it is impossible
at this time to definitely gazette the
extent of the victory, which is full of
political advantage to the Russians.
Besides relieving large army for
