COMPARES EXECUTION
TO MISS CAvfLL'S FATE
German Newspaper Takes Up Killing
of German Girl By French
mt Marseiiles.

Berlin. via Sayville. Aug. 31.-The
zuricher Post states that Felicie Pfadt.
la young German woman of Marseilles.
who was sentenced to death for trans.
hitting news to Germany, has been
executed.
Everybody felt sure the young wo-
man would be pardoned," comments
THE Post. Following the indignation
over the execution of Nurse Cavell. IL
was felt that France would be- obifEed
to prove her greater humaneness.
This however. was a mistake, and the
world may note that the indignation
following Germany's action was arti-
ficially fomented in order to influence
neutrals.
IF it was a military necessity to
execute Felicie Pfadt, 1t was a mill
tary necessity to execute Nurse Cavell.
II the execution of Nurse Cavell was
cruel and barbarous. the execution of
the young Marseilles girl was still
more cruel and barbarous.
ut should not be forgotten that
there were aggravating circumstances
in the case OF Miss Cavell which were
aacking in the case of Miss PfadS
I'm tho first place the difference In
$3.50 vas srealiy IN faVor OF the Ger
man girl. In the second place, Miss
Pfadt did not cover her actions under
the cloak of Red Cross nurse.
Even the staunches, supporter of
tho entente cannot deny that France
has executed young girl We do
not use the word 'assassinate' which
was repeatedly used in the case OF
Miss Cavell.
We do not believe that GERMANY
will now arrange advertising services
In Cathedrals. Germany Is not ac-
customed TO using unfortunate VIC.
Tins Of war for such propaganda pur-
poses.
We expect all sensitive neutraix
who raised such passionate protests
against the execution OF Miss Cayell
viii now raise their protesting voices
when there Is greater reason for IL"

London, Feb. 21.-Four German sea-
planes Sunday made a raid over the
east and southeast coasts of England,
according to an official announcement
made Sunday eveing. The total casu-
alties are given as two men and one
boy killed and one marine wounded
Considerable material damage was
done. The official communication says:
-Four German seaplanes made a raid
over the east and southeast coasts at
noon Sunday.
The first raiders, two biplanes, ap-
peared over Lowestoft at 1855 a. m.
and circled over the south side of the
town for five minutes and dropped
bombs. In about fve minutes they rose
to great height, and seemingly van
ished. At IL; 80 a. m. the two seaplanes
were again over the town and then
vanished eastward again.
Altogether so high explosive bombs
were dropped. There were no CASUAL
ties. Considerable damage was caused
to outbuildings of a restaurant and to
two dwelling houses. Two naval sea-
planes went up at 1906 a. m. and pur-
sued the raiders. but without result
Meanwhile two other German sea-
planes were making for the Kentish
coast. The first passed over the Kent
ish Knock light vessel, dropping bombs
in that vicinity at 1870 a. m.
The last raider made straight for
Walmer. Reaching that town at 1921
a M. flying at less than 25o0 feet, it
dropped six bombs and turned sharply
to the east.
Two o. the bombs that fell de-
stroyed roofs and broke windows in
the neighborhood. One of them fell
close to church. blowing in the win
dows as the congregation was singing
'Te Deum. a third bomb fell on
roadway running along the beach, kill
ing one civilian and injuring one ma
rine.
The total casualties were two men
and one boy killed and one marine
injured.
Two of the aeroplanes which went
up from Dover pursued the raider but
apparently could not overtake him"
