FIfTY-N|NE KILLED IN
AIR RAIDS0N ENGLAND

London April 4.-With the excep-
ton Of the big air raid of Jan. 81,
when the casualties were sixty-seven
persons killed and III injured, the
Zeppelin raids of Friday and Satur-
day nights caused greater loss of life
than any previous aerial attacks this
year.
The total casualties for the two
nights, according to an official report,
were fifty-nine persons killed and 166
wounded
AS some compensation for this sac
rifice of life, however, the British
public finds satisfaction in practical
proof afforded of a great improvement
in the defensive methods dealing with
aerial incursions. For the first time
since the inception of this method of
warfare on the British coast not only
has one raiding Zeppelin been brought
down and its crew taken prisoner,
but the official report recounts an ex-
citing aerial fight between a Zeppelin
and a British airman, Lieutenant
Brandon, who, mounting to a height
of 5000 feet, flew over the raider and
dropped several bombs on it with ef-
feet.

That Mrs. English has been COM

shown in the attitude of Thomas Dunn
English, the only son Of the dead man
by former wife. Mr.. English has Of

his own home in Brooklyn.
Dunn has been awfully nice to me-
