-FOUR AMERICANS
WERE KILLED
German Bombardment OF Hospitals
Was Deliberate and Fatal
to Several Of the
Staff.

[By VIM. Phillip Simms, United Press
Staff Correspondent
SCENE OF BoM8ARDMENT OF
A M ERIcAN HOSPITALS N
FRANCE, Sept e.-Four Americans
were killed when German airmen de-
IiberateIy bombed American hospitals
on the French coast.
The men killed were:
FIRST LIEUT.. WIN. T. FiTzSiM-
MONS, Kansas City. Adjutant to the
colonel commanding the Harvard hos
pitaI.
RUDOLPH RUBINo. JR, Of New
York.
OSCAR LETTUCE, Boston.
In addition to those killed, three
first Iieutenants~ were wounded as
we'll as six privates and one nurse.
"A visit to the scene Of this ruth
less attack by the Germans brought
cut:
The bombardment Of the hospitals
was deliberate.
Enemy airpIanes flew over the
hospitals more than once during day
liaht hours. The hospitals were
clearly dlstInguIshable and in addl-
ton, the land marks are such that
they could be easily mapped by an
aviator.
In addition to the bombs which
were dropped on the hospitals served
by the Harvard and St. Louis units,
one large bomb was apparently aimed
at the Chicago hospital.
This bomb struck just across the
road from the hospital, but failed to
explode.
1.-THE above United Press dispatch
carries the first American casualty
list of the war.
The officers who were slaughtered
by German frightfulness in the raid
on the American hospitals by enemy
airmen, are the first to be killed on
land since the United States enter
ed the war.
There have been casualties at sea
owing to the submarine warfare and
two or three accidental deaths among
the men who went abroad with Gen
eral Pershing, but the workers of
mercy among the hospital units are
the first to die in service. as the re-
suit of an enemy attack

Aged Man Without Kin Gives Sheriff Big
Farm.
lrredcricktown Democrat-News.) }

How would you like to have a
neighbor call you over to his house,
send you tor a notary and then pre-
sent you with a 3O0-ac farm with
not q string tied to the gift?
That is exactly what happened to
our genial sheriff John Chapman last
week. Simon Durand, an old French
man who has lived in this county for
many years, and amassed a fortune,
was the donor.
For many years the old man, who
IL now past SS years, has lived near
the Chapman farm and has been the
recipient Of many little fayors and at
tentions from the family. The only
explanation of his unusual gift is the
gratitude he must have felt for kind
ness Of the past
Durand came to this county direct
from France and has returned to
that country no less than four times.
He engaged in milling and farming
here and made considerable money,
nearly all of which he saved. Then
he inherited large sums OF money from
his parents. lie claims to have no
living relatives and has announced
that he expects to give away his vast
fortune to those who have been kind
to him in the past. Besides the land
given Mr.. Chapman, he has other
valuable land In the county and be-
sides has over $50, 900 invested in
bonds in st. Louis and Kansas City.
He is IN very poor health now but ex-
poets to 90 to st. Louis as soon as
possible and arrange for the dis
position Of his entire property.
