200 KILLED IN AIR RAID
Attack of British Aviators on
Zeebrugpe.

Zeebrugge.
Amsterdam, March 22-The great
aerial attack on Zeebrugge Monday
morning by fleet of British, French
and Belgian aeroplanes caused the
death OF two hundred persons and
spread heavy damage at the German
naval base, according to reliable re-
ports received from the Dutch from
tier today.
A number of the Germans large
coast guns were destroyed by the
large bombs dropped from the aero
planes. In addition to those killed.
three hundred and fifty were wound
ed
Most of casualties inflicted by the
Allies bombs were among the German
sailors at Zeebrugge, but number of
soldiers were killed or injured at Houl
tade (I!outave), where the German
aviation camp was badly damaged.
Seven hangers containing new aero
planes that had just come from the
German factories were smashed and
their contents completely ruined.
All reports of the raid reaching
here, agree that the attacking avia-
tors made the most brilliant flight that
has marked the war. Though flying
high above Zeebrugge and Houltade to
escape the volleys fired by the Ger
man antfaircraft guns, the Allied avia-
tors nevertheless threw their bombs
with careful aim.

Similarly when the city levies taxes

when arrangements are made TO tnke

Further. in the matter of assessments

At the same time 1t is very necessary

corporation bookkeeping so that they
may be equipped to ascertain the facts

The determination of its earning

proceed intelligently, it is necessary to

PROTESTS BRITISH SEIZURES
American Securities Worth $4,000, 900
Taken by ENGLAND

London, March 22.-Protest against
the seizure OF United States securities
was made to the foreign office today
by w. II. Page, the American ambas-
sado..
Ambassador Page declared that he
was acting in behalf of the American
consignees OF the securities and set
up the claim that the British govern
ment had no right to hold up the
stocks and bonds because they con-
stituted a bona fide neutral consign-
ment.
The American ambassador said he
would again call at the foreign office
on Thursday for definite answer to
his protest.
1t is estimated that between $4,000
900 and $15,000,000 worth of Ameri-
can securities have been seized by
England On ships The excuse given
was that the British foreign office
suspected that some of the owners of
stocks and bonds were Germans.

Our SCHOOLING inexpensive.

Twenty-Five million persons were en-
rolled in educational institutions in
the United States last year. And they
required 100000 teachers, of whom
$4,000 were in public schools, to
guide them in the paths of learning.
About $34 apiece was what it cost
a give them a year of schooling. Com
pared with some of our other expenses
as a nation, public schools seem to be
a decidedly inexpensive hobby. They
cost less than one-half of the nations
expenditure for alcoholic liquors, and
their expense is s3OO,OOO,OO0 less than
that of running the federal govern
ment. Even for admission to the NOV
les" we spend third Of what the
schools require:
Measured in terms of products Of
the soil, the United States spent a
little more for education than the
value of its wheat crop, and less than
half the value of the annual harvest
of corn. What the ultimate value
of the educational harvest will be is

REPORT DECREASE OF CRIME
British Prison Commissioners Have
Recently Made Report That VIII

The prison commissioners of Great !
Britain have just published their an
nual report for the year ending March,
1915. The decrease of persons who
were received under sentence during
the war year of 1914-15 is another
proof that employment is the great
cure for crime. The total number OF
nersons convicted amounted to only
114.2g3. including debtors and those
committed by courts-martial, a de-
crease OF 1890 as compared with the
wear of 1894, and the lowest num-
her of convictions on record. The
greater part of this decrease is at
trib,,ted to circumstances connected
with the war. Enlistment has given
employment to many of the habltual
oettv offenders, the restricted hours
Cor the sale of intoxicants has UNI
douhtedly decreased the amount or
crime. while the great demand for
/ well-paid labor has given employment
to the many.

the war orders were issued whereby

yiously served in the army we're al

claimed Wednesday night that he al
ready has more than 300 votes pledged
to the justice.
It will require 496 to nominate him.
The Hughes manager Apparently en-
tertains little doubt of success in Sc
curing that number. The managers Of
the opposition concede to the justice
315 votes, but they assert with appra-

Il Is one of the ironical develop
