II 0ND0N, June 18--TWo kill
- ed and sixteen injured are
the totals of the last aerial raid
by ZeppeIins, which was launch
ed last Saturday night over the
coast OF Kent and one Of the
eastern counties. a..
Two zeppeIins took part in the
raid and one Of them paid the
penalty for the murders commit
ted by its fellow night hawk, and
was doWned by a pilot of the
Royal Flying Corps after a SEN
satlonaI air battle high above the
clouds over the waters Of the
British Channel.
The official announcement of
the double raid issued last night
admitted that one of the raiders
after crossing the Channel ana
dropping six bombs upon a coast
town escaped the British aero
planes sent in pursuit. The Ger
mans have adopted a new sys-
item Of attack in these raids
(which makes it extremely diff
lcult for them to be discovered
prior to the falling Of the nrs(
bomb. They are no longer fly
ling at the six or eight thousand
foot levels, but keep to the tWen-
lty thousand foot levels, where
they are invisible to the defend
ers in stations along the coast,
so that the first intimation the
British aerial scouts get of the
presence of the enemy is the ex-
plosion of a bomb.
The raider which escaped last
night followed this plan and sue
ceeded in killing two and wound
Ing sixteen before he was driven
off. The other, one of the latest
type Of ZeppeIins, flew at a low
er level and consequently the
British air men who went in
chase of this air ship were able
to overtake. her. They forced
her. to discontinue her efforts to
lombard the east coast town
she was attacking with her
bombs, and turn tail for the open
sea, without having inflicted any
injury or succeeding in killing a
single, child or woman.
But the Zeppelin commander
had waited too long and before
his cumbersome craft could get
away one of the swiftly flying
British falcons overhauIed her
and began work upon her huge
sides with the machine gun
mounted on the plane. Then ris-
ing above the dirigibIe the plane
tropped a bomb that gave the
German monster a death wound,
and She toppled over and He'll
several thousand feet into the
waves Of the Channel.
The British people are becom-
ing weary Of these raiders, which
for a long time they regarded as
more or less of a joke, and a
huge mass meeting was called
last night at which a resolution,
drawn up by the Lord Mayor of
London, was adopted. This calls
upon the, government to- begin
and maintain a continual series

retaliation for the German raids

GIVES ALL TO HIS COUNTRY
The Story of Richard Prokop, Real
American, Now on His Way
to France.

Madison, Wis.-The story of Rich
lrd Prokop should never be forgot
zen in Wisconsin.
Private Prokop-he is on his way
70 the front as a member of the ar
Iillery branch of the regular army
and soon may be Somewhere In
France-may never know or believe
that he is anything more than a patri-
Otic young man, but his story should
be made to live.
When the war is over Wisconsin
will possess her quota of heroes who
will receive the credit that is their
due. Private Prokop probably will be
forgotten then. So let his story be
told now.
This young mamie IS only 22-did
not know much about America when
be left Bohemia four years ago. He
had been told that it was a land OF
opportunity and he came.
He worked at farm work four years,
and the other day he registered for
service. Then he enlisted in the reg
ular army for the war.
He had saved $3.50, and it was in a
bank drawing four per cent interest.
He drew it out and bought $500 worth
of Liberty Bonds, which pay 31A per
cent interest, but 100 per cent in sat
isfaction that the owner is doing
something for his country.
Private Prokop may give his life
for his country, which he has learned
TO know in four short years as the
greatest country on earth. When he
went away he said he was glad tc
have that opportunity.
He has given his savings to Uncle
Sam besides.
When he left for the front every
man in the office OF the State Council
stood at attention until he had passed
through the door.
