ZEPPELIN RAIDER CANT PENETRATE. BRITISH DEFENCE
Lone Airship Flees After Being Greeted With
 Rain of Shells.

London April 6-The increasing effectiveness of England's anti-air- craft defenses was demonstrated last night when the single Zeppelin which undertook the 9th raid in six days was prevented from penetrating the northeast coast and was forced to flee after the Briefest visit of the kind yet made.
 The night was clear, with moon light and without wind. Searchlights discovered the raider coming over the sea and never once lost him dur ing his stay. As he reached the coast he was flying comparatively low and the smallest guns found him such an easy target he was forced to greater height.
 The larger guns found the range and, aided by searchlights they sur rounded the machine with such a rain of shrapne1 that it turned after drop ping a few bombs.

City Has To Pay
 For Paving Repairs

Repairs to the wood block pave ment in Park avenue will be paid by the city accordig to a, vote of the pav- ing and sewer commission at it's meet ing last night. The block pavement was laid there in 1911 by the Burns Co.,, and year later the blocks buck1ed. The contractors say the blocks which buckled were some that had been left over from other jobs and had been stored in. the city yard. According to their contract with the former members of the paving and sewer Commission they had to agree to use these blocks. The contractors allege the blocks lay so long in the city yard that the creosote evaporated and they more readily assimi1ated water. The bill for the paving re- pairs is $227.08.
 The B. D. Pierce Jr., Co.,, was awarded the contract for eight-inch vitrified pipe sewer in Lorraine and Petrie streets. The contract calls for 68O feet of pipe and the company has IA days to build the sewer. The Pierce company was low, bidding $671 for the job.

 T never saw a country where nren could ride as hard without sleep and still keep well as in these mPun- Iains.''
 This officer had ridden on a scout with the 250 men of the cavalry.
 'tIt seems to be the air at the altitude of 7,50O to 10000 feet that Keeps the men up," he added
 The troopers, in the course of their 80 miles ride in two days. made a 65 mile ride literally up and down the tops of.s a ridge of mountains. The 55 miles was made in 36 hours, through canyons, through heavy snow , at 10000 feet high and up and down : mountain sides There is neither road nor~frai1. After taking their mounts safely 1fhrough. this ride the cavalrynen made a 25 mile dash across country to head off the possibility of a Villa rally at a place which has been un- the mountain work the cavalrymen led their horses over the worst places, the horses have shown that they can eIin1la- almost any mountain that a. man can ascend.
 Pride in their horses has become a passion. with the cava1rymen in their mountain riding.
 Our horses" they asserted, 'sare just as good today as when they crossed the border They are fit for a charge right now. Just let us get on Villas trail and we will get him sure"
 An officer here tells how he re- treated from a. house where he be- Rieved he was about to discover a Villa bandit. It was during the search of a mountain district where there was a suspicion that Villa might be concealed until his wounds heal ed.
 Many houses were under search when this officer saw what he took to be a wounded man lying in bed in a. room. He swung open the door, pts- tol in hand, and hurried across the room. The man in bed in the very poor light looked more than ever like a wounded bandit The officer started to turn down the blanket covering the Mexican but Iafter one look he fled. He had discovered a case. of small pox.
