DISASTROUS AIR RAID
IS MADE BY GERMANS
In Last Nights Zeppelin At
tack 54 Were Killed and
67 Injured

London, Feb. In the most disas-
trous air raid against England to date,
German Zeppelins last night killed "a
persons and injured 67 in attacks
against Staffordshire, Lincolnshire and
Leicestershire. Official announcement
of this toll today indicated tnat the
figures may run even greater as re-
ports from all the bombarded cities are
not complete. That the raids were not
more terrible was due to the fact that
the attackers were hampered by a mist,
Last nights raids against the coun-
ties 100 miles north and northeast Of
London were the 18th since the war
started. The next greatest attack was
October l3, 1915 against Londan, when
80 persons were killed and ll5 injured.
Last night s onslaughts brought the
total of casualties to 224 killed and
462 wounded.
While the London war office did not
announce exact locations, it is regard
ed possible that some important Eng
lish manufacturing centers were at
tackled. Manchester, and Sheffield, two
Of the most important of such cities
lie just north of the bombarded dis
tlicts.

"THEFORTUNE HUNTER"
AT GRAND THURSDAY
Cooke Patton the IniInitable
as "Watty," Wilson
Howard as Hi"

f. Cooke Patton, proprietor of Pat
ton S Post Card Hall, and one of Sa-
lem s. most distinguished citizens, is
the pioneer entertainer of the Capital
city. When you come to think of it he
is the pioneer of almost everything.
He is the scion Of about tae oldest
pioneer family; he is the pioneer book
seller, the pioneer theatre manager, the
pioneer magician, the pioneer hypno.
tist, and the pioneer local talent actor.
A biographical sketch of Cooke Patton
would make very interesting reading.
But tais is not biographical sketch.
No, this is only by way of saying
that Cooke is to play one of the prin-
eipal comedy parts in ''The Fortune
Hunter" the big charity benefit play
which the Social Service Center of
the Commercial club is to stage at the
Grand next Thursday and Friday,
February and 4, with an all-star east
of local talent.
Cooke will be seen in the role of
"Watty" the village tailor-one of
the funniest character creations an
author ever conceived of, and one of
the most famous comedy parts in the
whole range of English drama. If you

Lack of Blanks Makes
Trouble for Brokers

San Francisco, Feb. 1.-The first
day of the shippers declaration act
was ushered in today with complica-
ti0ns and protests galore.
The act calls tor the itemization Of
cargoes on o special blank. But only
1000 Of these blanks were sent by
the government to San Francisco. Four
thousand blanks last only about one
day these busy times and four broker
age concerns bought up the lot at one
half cent each within a few hours
after arrival.
This left scores Of brokers without
the necessary blanks. They marched
upon j. o. Davis, collector of port,
with 10 heated protest and demanded
that there be delay in putting the
law into effect. Davis is in quand-
airy. 1t will probably be several days
before any more can come from Wash
ington and il is imperative that many
brokers have manifests ready. The
purpose of the act is to have tabu.
lated list Of exports in the hands Of
the government so that tabs can be
kept on trade conditions.

Flying German Flag.

Norfolk, Va, Feb. 1.-The liner APP
pam, French Senegal for Liverpool,
nearly awo weeks overdue at the lat
ter port dropped anchor at Hampton
Roads off Old Point Comfort today.
She was reported to be in charge of a
German crew from a submarine that
had captured her.
This strange ending followed days of
anxiety about the ship, after a drifting
lifeboat from her had been picked up
after wild storm off the Moroccan
coast.
immigration officials boarded the
ship soon after she reached the Roads,
and refused to allow anyone to board
her. She was reported to have 16G pas
sengers aboard.
In her starboard bow below the wa
ter line was a dented plate appearing as
though the ship had struck a reef or
had been struck perhaps by a torpedo
She flew the German flag, but only
IL Germans were reported to be aboard
her. Her apparent capture amazed au-
thorities under the circumstances.
German Prisoners Freed.
NtlNc CdhGS VI SlChutSS NtIe report
ed to the quarantine officials.
When the Germans captured the APP
pam they liberated more than score
of German prisoners captured in West
Africa en- route to London, and it was
regarded as possible that these prison
ers aided the submarine crew in keeping
peace aboard the Appam on the trip
here.
If reports Of the German capture
prove true, this will be the first in
stance in history whore a large liner has
been captured by a submarine. In both
the Adriatic and Mediterranean, how
ever, the divers have captured smaller
merchantmen.
Recently Berlin announced that a Bri-
tish liner had been captured off Africa,
and that nearly 100 of the crew had
been, turned over by the submarine
crew to Senussi rebels.

Both Husband and Wife
We're KleptOmaniacs

San Francisco, Feb. l. What
strange impulse prompted Robert w.
Cheeseman, sexton of the First Presby-
terian church of Oakland, and his wife,
Alice, to steal from department stores
and yet leave untouched purses mem
bers of the congregation forgot in
their seats after servicesl
The police asked themselves this
question today after interviewing the
man and the woman. Eight years in
this country from England, Cheese
man and his wife enjoyed the com
plete confidence of the church people;
even had the handling Of church funds
at times.
They were taken into custody in
downtown department store on charge
of shOplifting.
Mrs. Cheeseman rubbed elbows with
q woman Of the streets in Police Judge
Sullivan s court today, on charge of
larceny. She cried and the women
eomforted her.
"Don t cry," she told the sexton s
wife. you'll get short jolt com
pared to mine and besides it's cold
outside and the feedin' in the can IS
pretty good after ALL"
"Why did you steal'" the sexton Is
wife was asked.
81 don't know" she replied "Some
insane impulse possessed me l guess.
l couldn't resist the temptation of
taking things when [ was in stores. /
had a good home and everything |
wanted. My husband and l were af-
fected the same way when we were
out in stores together" "
In Mrs. Cheeseman IS Oakland home
over the First Presbyterian church the
Oakland police found stored 500 worth
of finery from the department stores.
The couple were released on bail furn-
ished by officers of their church.
