PARIS WOMAN WAS
SCARED TO DEATH
Several Others Were Injured

French Aviators Succeed

Zeppelins

Calais. via Paris March y, $40 a. m.--
A third Zeppelin attack on this city,
timed almost at the precise hour that
the aerial raid was made upon Paris
early Sunday, was made Ineffective be-
cause the whirring of the airshIps mo-
tors gave adequate warning OF their ap-
proach. The Zeppelins came from the
direction of the sea, but they received
such vigorous bombardment from French
artillery that they retreated before
reaching this city and dropped no bombs.
Paris. March %, sos a. m.-While
none was killed directly by the bombs
dropped on Paris and enyirons yesterday
during the Zeppelin raid. one death re-
suited. Madame Charles Pesson, an aged
woman living in Rue Des Danes, was 50
frightened by the explosion Of a bomb
in the street that she died soon after.
An examination of one bomb, which
failed to explode, showed them to be
incendiary bombs. Seven or eight per-
sons we're injured BY them. Four Zeppe-
/ hns started for the capital following
the valley Of the Disc, but only two
reached their goal Missiles also were
dropped at Rlbecourt, Compeigne and
Dresnlineourt, without serious results.
Buzzing motors OF the aeroplane
guards which were the first TO be noti-
fed. and searchlights flashing from the
vicinity Of the EilTel tower to the heights
Of Montemarte, caused the keenest in
tercst and excitement among the popu-
lation OF the awakened city, but there
was no panic
Thousands strained their eyes IN an
effort to catch a glimpse of the invaders,
which many claimed 20 have seen NOV
/ ing swiftly in the vicinity Of Madeleine
ar 10 watch the work Of French airmen.
Balconies and the roofs OF houses IN
passy and other quarters were used a.
vantage points by the curious, while
many Of the more timid sought refuge
in places Of safety. The comparatively
| few persons who were in The streets
were interested spectators, apparently
careless Of possible danger. All taNicabs
we're stopped, and the occupants forced
to alight.
Soon a distant roar was heard, but L
was not known whether il WAS caused
by the explosion Of bombs dropped by
the Zeppelins or by the FIRE Of anti-alr
craft guns. Then reports were received
az the explosion Of bombs in the Batig-
nolles quarter and in the Rucs Dulong
ana Des Danes. thus making il certain
that German aircraft had made another
surprise attack.
Reports followed of two powerful eN'
plosions between PuteauN and surencs
suburbs Of Paris Residents Of this Sec
tion reported having seen a large dirigi.
