German Aviators Try to XIII Nicholas
He Has Narrow Escape.

London, April 15.-F'irst news of an
attack on the life of the czar by Aus
tro- German aviators reached here FRI
day night. Official dispatches from
Petrograd indicate that the Russian
emperor entirely escaped injury
Learning that the czar was review
ing his troops at Ivantz, on the Dnies-
ter, two Teuton aeroplanes set forth
with large supply of powerful bombs.
The machines reached khetin, across
the Dniester from Ivantz. before Rus
sian machines could ascend to com
bat them.
Soaring across the Dniester, one of
the machines descended to lower al
titudes above Ivantz and succeeded in
dropping his store of bombs.
OF the results attained by the raid,
an official statement issued by the
general staff In Petrograd says:

PLEDGE FOR MILITIA
Senate Adopts Army yPrOvision-Would
Increase Coast Artillery Corps.

Washington. April 15.-To further
strengthen liberalization of the ma
tional guard, the senate today, 33 to
%, amended the army reorganization
bill to require guardsmen to take an
oath to obey the orders of the presi-
dent as well as the governor of their
state. The amendment was presented
by Senator Wadsworth who said it
originated in the national guard itself.
THE chief purpose of the amend
ment is to place national guard SOL
diers primarily in the service of the
United States and secondarily in the
service of the state" said Senator
Wadsworth.
Senator Southerland, Republican,
urged adoption of his amendment in
creasing the coast artillery corps at
once to maximum strength.
'Our coast defenses have cost SAL
100000 and are among the best in the
world" said he. But we now have
enough men to man only one-fourth
of the guns. My amendment would
give us enough men to man one-half.
l think more men should be trained
in the use of guns and hence l would
not leave it to the president to make
the increase but would have congress
do it now

Paris. April 15.-There was no in
fantry fighting in the Verdun region
last night. French positions between
Malancourt wood and Hill 304 west

ITO the north of Royea a recon-
naissance on the part of the enemy
who were endeavoring to occupy our
trenches in the region of Parvillers
was dispersed by our fire.
There was no infantry fighting last
night anywhere in the Verdun region.
ITO the west of the river Meuse

bardment of our positions between the
wood of Malancourt and Hill No. 304
our batteries evidenced great activity
along this part of the front, particu-
larly to the west of Corbeaux wood
and at various points along the Forges
brook. To the east of the river Meuse
and in the Woevre district there have
been intermittent bombardments. in
the Nosges there have been encOun-
ters between patrols. A reconnais-
sance on the part of the enemy was
checked by our fire at a point south
of Sainte Marie AUX mines"

Washington, April 15.-Department

MAKING 1T HERE?
Federal Officers Believe They
Have Kansas MOOnshiners.
Ugh! Liquor Out of Perfectly
Dry Jayhawker Corn!
STILL NEAR WEST MINERAL
Officers Have Photographs of a
Big Prairie Brewery.
Chance
for Their Escape!

Federal officials are on their way
to swoop down upon a still-a real
still, worm" and all, at West Min
eraI in Cherokee county. A deputy
revenue collector left Wichita last
night armed with authority and other
officers are said to have left Kansas
City bent on the same errand.
In Kentucky and Tennessee federal
officials know all the tricks of the
moonshiner's profession and usually
make their captures, then secure the
evidence. But in this Kansas instance
the officials secured the evidence and
will now proceed to make the capture.
1t is stated by a federal official that
the revenue department has an actual
photograph of the West Mineral
moonshiners at work with their still
making whisky from Kansas corn.
1t has long been suspected that
there was a still in operation in the
neighborhOod of West Mineral and Of
forts have been made to secure evil
dence. One revenue officer, more en-
terprising than the rest, managed to
get Closeup" photograph of the
whole plant with the moonshiners at
work, without disturbing any one. The
photograph. it is said, shows features
clearly and after the arrests are made
the photograph will make the best of
evidence.
Late this afternoon no warrants had
been issued here for the arrest of any
moonshiners. The United states mar
shal had no information about the
case w H. L. Pepperill internal rev.
enue collector at Wichita, however,
admitted that a deputy had been sent
from that point.
Other federal officials admitted th>t

sinners to get aWaV
