RAIDING ZEPPELIN IS
DESTROYED BY FRENC
Airship Falls in Vardar River Near
Saloniki. Populacc of City
Jubilant.

ATHENS. May 5 Go a. m.)-The
French flagship Patrie brought down
Il Zeppelin at . o'clock this morning
The airship fell in the Nardar river
near Saloniki.
There was great jubilation in Salon
Xxi over the destruction of the raiding
Zeppelin, says Reuter- dispatch from
that place, since Saloniki has been for
a long time in nightly terror of raids.
Describing the end of the raider the
dispatch says:
The populace was awakened at
O'Clock Friday morning. Searchlights
in the harbor soon caught the intruder
which was directly over the town and
"A hurricane of SHELLS was thrown on
il. The new French incendiary pro-
jectiles made an interesting spectacle.
They lighted up the whole town as
they shot upward.
"The Zeppelin seemed to lose its
bearings and turned toward the sea,
presenting magnificent broadside.
One shell which burst close to its tail
caused the Zeppelin to dip and drop
lower 1t then faded from sight APP
parently enVeloped in cloud OF
vapor.
Nothing more was heard for halt
hour when two loud reports followed
by "A great flare lasting several seconds
BETRAYED the fact that the airship had
met its fate close to the estuary OF
the Vardar river. The crews on the
warship in the harbor cheered the end
OF the raider. Much credit is due to
n French airman who ascended in pur-
suit of the Zeppelin and claims tC
have dropped two bombs on It,"

THE WAR AT A
-GLANCE-

Germany's reply to the American
governments demand for a cessation
of Germany's present method of sub
marine warfare has reached WASH
ington and now is being decided. The
press version of the note already has
been received in the United States and
has been widely commented on.
Gains for the Germans northwest
of Verdun are chronicled in both the
French and German official COM
munications. North of Hill 304 the
Germans gained a footing in a French
advanced trench and also occupied
French positions west of Avocourt
and several trenches southeast of
Haucourt. Repeated French attacks
against German positions west of lie

German fire.
Inclement weather Is hampering
the infantry operations, according to
the latest official communication
from Paris and bombardments alone
now are taking place. Hill 304, north
west of Verdun. is receiving a bonn
bardment OF increased intensity.

Near Baiburt, Asia Minor, the Turks
have again essayed an attack against
the Russians, but have been repulsed.
Night attacks by the Turks near Bitlis
also were put down. Near Erzingan

rigger Canoe Club, including Judge,
a minister, druggist, prominent

dropped from membership in the

its secretary
At a meeting of the board of d.
rectors, which will be held Monday,
April 10, all members whose dues for
the current half-year ending June 80
have not been paid, will have their
names brought up for action and
probable dismissal from membership.
Twenty new members have come

This about offsets the designations,
so that we are still crowded for lock-

the names of those who have not paid
their dues for the current half-year,
we will probably have a lot of lockers
available, so that doubl-

longer. We now have 40 or so mem
