WAR NEWS FEATURES
(By P. NJ. sarle)

LONDON, Dee. 2s, (By Mail to
New York)-Thrilling personal ex
periences in the Belgian trenches arc
related by Miss Jossica Borthwick,
niece of the late Lord Gleneska, who
has just returned to England to en-
large her equipment of the field am
bulance corps which she organized in
conjunction with Dowager Lady Suf-
folk, Lord Methuen and others, and
whose work she has been superintend-
ing.
"The other day." she said, 81 was
standing in the road on the way to
Dixmude talking to an offices when
shell fell, taking off his left arm
completely as though it had been
chopped off with an axe, killing five
others, and shattering a nearby house
to the ground. A COW standing near
was also killed, but another a few
yards distant simply looked around
and went on eating. For moment
| felt stunned, but was consious of
shower of every kind ca stone and
dirt. One man, not otherwise wound
ed, was struck deaf and dumb by the
shock
"That night we went to Dixmude.
The Germans were holding the coun-
try on three sides of the town, the
Allies on the other. We left our
ambulance on this side of the canal
and carried our stretchers over the
bridge and through the main street.

SEVEN PERSONS KILLED
German Aircraft Under
Cover Of Darkness
Scare British
(By Ed. L. Keen)

LONDON, Jan. 20.-There is a
growing conviction that aeroplens,
not zeppelins, participated in the
raids on the coast cities last night,
and has aided in calming Londoners.
Despite the definite statements that
several persons saw Zeppelins, Off
cials of the raided cities express
doubts. The belief that it was aero
planes is supported by the statement
of the Yarmouth police who declare
they saw the outlines.
Cities Bombarded and
the Victims.
There is an absence of official in
formation but the most reliable re-
ports place the number of victims
not to exceed nine and possibly not
over seven. Five were killed at Var
mouth and two at Lynn. The addi-
tional cities known to have been bonn
barded are Sheeringham, Snetting-
ham, Gorleston, Grimston, Beeston,
Desringham, Environs and Sandring-
ham. ------..-----
The aircraft arrived in darkness.
All apparently escaped. Reports
from Amsterdam say that three were
sighted, returning to the German ma
val base this morning
