 LONDON. June For the first time OF record, a Zeppelin in the air has been destroyed by an aviator in an aeroplane. Reginald Walneford, a young Cana dian sub-licutenant in the royal navy, who mastered aerOplaning only this sum mer, performed this feat and tonight is somewhere within the British lines. while the Zeppelin lies nn ruins, sprawlcd on the roof and ground of an orphan age near Ghent.

 The theory is advanced that the Zeppelin was the craft that raided ihe east coast of England last night For the fact that it was in the air 6ver Belgium at three o'clock this morning leads to the belief 1t was returning from an expedition and not starting The Zeppelin flying com paratively low. began to mount as soon as the aeropIane was sighted But the British airship was speedier and climbed into the air in long spirals. reaching position at length over the Germans vast bulk
 From this point of vantage Warne ford burst the Zeppelins shell re- peatedly with incendiary bombs. The explosions caused an air vacuum and the monoplane turned completely over and also began to fall. Warne ford succeeded in fighting the smaller craft and landed safely.
 It is presumed the Zeppelin was headed for the home hangar when Warneford same winging swiftly un- der the gray skies.

To reach this alti- tude would require nearly twenty minutes. The Zeppelin in the mean

ANNAPOLIS, June That there IS reason to believe that attempts were made to enter desks of the heads of at least four naval academy departments to secure ex- animation papers in advance was the testimony of Rear Admiral Fullam, superintendent of the academy be- fore naval court of inquiry to in vestigate charges of irregularities in the examinations.
 It is the belief of the authorities, however that only one attempt had heen successful. This was a case in the department of modern lan- guages Admiral Fullam occupied the witness stand from ten o'clock in the morning. He did not finish his direct testimony and will resume tomorrow. The testimony was to the effect that examination papers for the first, second and fourth classes in Spanish to all appearances had been stolen and following this was general dissemination from the hands of friends of one midshipman of good dope" for all these classes.
 It is explained the custom has grown up in the academy of receiv- ing from professors advance con- cerning the most important portions of the terms work. This is called dope
 Many midshipmen testified they thought the information so generally disseminated was this so-called dope.

 The Germans are also on the offen- sive in the Baltic provinces. Their of ficial records show they are crossing the river Windau, southeast of Libau. Hard fighting and heavy losses on both sides, notably north of Arras where the French seem determined to nibble their way forward, continue in the west. but the contests are hardly more than trench warfare entrusted with the fighting in Galicia.

Professor Taylor Reports Items Amounting to Three-Qnarters of Mill ion May Be Topped Off Cost of Roosevelt Dam.

New Treasurer and Legal Advisors ChOsen-kih- bey Gets Original Billet with W. U. A.-Wilson Handles Money.

In Chairman T. U. TaylOrs an nouncement that the cost review board had practically agreed at least three quarters of a million dollars ought to be cut from the cost of Feature 1, the Roosevelt dam, yester- day. there is found by irrigationists a strong hope that the final report of the local board will recommend deep gashes in the book-cost of the Salt River project.
 Professor Taylor. speaking before the board of governors of the water users association at it's monthly meeting yesterday morning outlined the findings of the board to date being certain investigations into the charges for the construction of the dam In these two items, both con cured in by the reclamation service member, Frank w. Hanna, are to be found material reductions in cost:
 Sluice gates, total loss through fail ure to do what they were planned to do, $450 OO0
 Overhead costs in Washington of flee on work for construction of the Roosevelt dam. $300,OOO
 The total, $7500OO is but part of the deduction that may be recom- mended on this one feature And there are fifteen or more features.
 Taylor for Reduction
 From Taylors talk, it was inferred that he will be strong for reducing the ultimate cost to the farmers of the Salt River project. He described the work of the board of review of which he is member-on the Carlsbad project in New Mexico. There the book cost was halved. He appreciated the work done along pre- liminary lines by the reclamation service and by his associate, F. A. Jones. The reclamation service had made no preliminary statement on the Carlsbad project, and that fact de- layed the work of investigating the costs. Here, however, the U. $. R. s. had supplied the figures in easy ac cessible form, and Mir. Jones had made great headway in his prelim mary analyses of these figures.
 Following MT. Taylors talk, MT. Jones addressed the board. going even more closely into detail about the costs. He told how the work had been organized, book costs having been supplied by the reclamation ser vice, and actual costs Gin the judg ment of the board) being figured in parallel columns.
 According to the government state ment, the construction work is divid ed into certain units. An illustra tion will show how:

 FRIENDLY RELATION
Sees German Ambassador and Then Starts on Tour of United States to See Editors and Secure Aid to Peace Movement.
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHl

WASHINGTON, June Van Ghen GeIdemeister, son of the relig ious adviser to Queen Wilhelmina of Holland. has by n brief visit tO Washington, after conferences at Berlin with high German officials, set in motion much speculation in official and diplomatic quarters about the possibility of peace in Europe. Cieldemeister, it became known, saw Dr. Won Jagow, the German foreign secretary, and other members of th-, imperial ministry shortly after the Lusitania was sunk, and received certain impressions concerning the German attitude toward war and the ultimate making of peace. With this knowledge. though not with tine au- thority of German officials, he started for Washington in the hope that in formally he could portray German feelings in official quarters.
 Geldemeister left Washington on Saturday without seeing any prOmi- nent officials of the American gov ernment. He started on a trip to New York, Chicago. and other cities with an idea of convincing the edi- tors of German-American newspapers of the help they can render in pro- noting more friendly relations be tween Germany and the United States. The most significant of the impressions Geldemeis.er brought, it is said. was that . large section of the populace and an important ele lnent of the German gov ernment it. self is not in sympathy with the ex- treme militarists and believe a dis cussioh of peace terms would not be undesirable.
 On his arrival here last week he visited Count von BernstOrff, the German ambassador. The latter. learning that Geldemeister had been at Berlin and at the German foreisn office, gave the visitor a letter of in- troduction setting these facts forth.
 The ambassador asked the Asso- ciated Press tonight to emphasize that Geldemeister carried no creden tiale from Germany and had abso- lutely no official connection with his government.
 While in Washington, the visitor from the Netherlands gave the i'm pression to those with whom he talked that there was peace party of some importance in Great Britain
 
 what was most needed at present was continued pressure by neutrals for mediation. He intimated to some of his friends that he feared his own country; Holland, might even he drawn into the conflict if it contin- ued, but was hopeful that efforts by neutrals to mediate. if begun now. would be successful.
 Just how far Mir. Geldemeister may have been encouraged in Berlin tc present these views to people in the United States is not definitely known. Jane Addams and others interested in peace, who recently visited Ser lin. have been cordially received by high German officials, and in German quarters here lately there has been constant reference to the likelihood of peace growing out of the present cor Iespondence- concerning neutral rights
 In allied quarters here any talk of peace emanating from Germany is looked upon with circumspection and

 SAN FRANCISCO, June Two coupled runaway cars with nearly one hundred passengers speeded two blocks down the steep grade of the Fillmore street hill and plunged into two other cars, injuring ten. John O'Neil, chief of the concessions at the exposition was dangerously hurt.
 Physicians thought O'NeiFs skull was fractured and both legs broken. Internal injuries may also have been sustained.
 Passengers on the two cars at the base of the grade were hurried out by the car crew before the collision. Motorman Rushing, of the runaway cars, said he received q signal to re- lease the brakes before the cable, which operates two sets of cars on the balance system, were attached to the upcoming cars.

PROSPECTS, for Abundant Cr0DS.

The prospects for a crop of corn and
of cotton were never more fiattering
in this section. The season has been
almost ideal and the farmers have util-
lied every opportunity for work. The
land was perhaps better prepared than
for years, possibly ever before; there
have been no big rains and weather
conditions generally have been favor
able. Corn. even on the hillsides, has
IA fine stalk and a rich color and there
is every indication that the barns will
groan with bulglng sides this fall. Be-
side the corn. there is much hay and
other provender. The oat crop has
been excellent and preparations for
saving hay were never more general
ana IN earnest.
There are few boil weevils in the
cotton while last season at this time
they were here by the thousands. The
plant is large and well fruited and the
soil is in good condition. The outlook
could scarcely be more promising, how
ever. the months of July and August
are the real crucial months with a cot
ton crop. During these months the
crop is either made or unmade and the
most promising outlook at this time
may end in a practical failure.

Editor Sentinel:
Would you like a contribution from
my section?
am deeply interested in education
as an adjunct of CHRISTIANITY. The edu-
cational idea is developing in our Sec
ton. Like the oak, its growth is sure
but not the. less solid when accom-
plished. The idea needs propagation.
The old needs Systematically and o n
servatively to be gradually replaced by
the new. The swelling bud, which
promises so much in the way of first,
bloom, and afterward fruit, must by
10 means be severed from the plant.
The old was given to US and is the
parent of the new; consequently, tho
we need strength of conviction equal to
the sunshine, yet We must be gentle.
even as the sunshine is also gentle, in
agitating the enforcement of them, be-
cause the old is the parent of the new.
and the child must obey his parental
least until he has attained mis- majority;
then he becomes his own ma and can
act or his WI initiative. because he is
supposed to have the why's and where
fores during his apprenticeship while
with his parent.
All of which leads to the conclusion
that | stand for Conservative Radical
