woman are dead and two men are
dying as the result OF the attack
made on Freiburg Thursday by a
French aviator. Eight others, mostly
children, are in the hospital Sc
verely injured, and six more were
slightly hurt.
The raid was executed in broad
daylight after a series of night at
tacks, which were repulsed by anti
air craft cannon. The high mortal
ity among the children was due to
the fact that one Of the bombs fell
amid a group Of children at a street
corner which is favorite place for
the youngsters in the workmen's
quarters.
Flee 60 Cellars.
The inhabitants OF Freiburg. which
during the last five months has been
visited repeatedly by hostile aeroplanes,
were awakened at II o'clock at night by
the signal of three cannon shots, giving
a warning of the approach of an aero
olane. All the people took refuge in cell
lars as prescribed by the authorities. A
few shots sufficed to drive the flyer off.
The residents were Just returning TO
their beds when a half hour later a fusil-
lade wac opened against an aviator APP

roofs and windows were filled with
spectators who ignored the instructions
TO take refuge In cellars. They saw little
for their pains, however. The machine
was constantly hidden In the clouds. but

ping bombs in the industrial suburb.
