British Press Less Critical.

LONDON, October 22.-Whle admit
ting the existence of widespread popu-
lar dissatisfaction over the apparent
fmpunity with which Zeppelins raided
England Friday night, a majority of
the morning newspapers take more
sober view than that expressed by the
Saturday and Sunday papers
While the raiders were not alta ok ed
by guntire in London. they were bonn
barded conside rably elsewhere. and
there is reason to believe that one was
so damaged that it left England under
imperfect control. 1t is suggested that
the authorities had reasonable grounds
for believing that the Zeppelins would
be unable to ind London, owing to the
darkness and the height at which they
were travelling, and the firing of guns
and the flashing of searchlights would
only have revealed the target 1t is
known that British airplanes were up
in considerable numbers during the raid

hint that these had niuch to do with
the driving Of the Zeppelins to France.

The premier said he had hoped the
enemy's terrible power might be broken
this year. but that the temporary COL
lapse OF the Russian military power had
postponed this hope. But time was on
the side of the allies, he said. Time
once was neutral. but two things had
changed this. namely, the advent OF
America and the increasing failure of
the German submarine war.
The allies were working in the greatest
harmony, the premier continued. He
said they were on the eve of the most
important inter-allied conference ever
held, at which for the first time repre-
sentatives Of America and OF the Rus
sian democracy would be present He
stated that the conference meant to de-

discussions was that Surgeon General
Gorgas. L. s. Il. when war was de-
clared last spring. found only 452 medt-
cal officers in the entire Army. Today
he has 10000 physicians and surgeons
under commission and $4,000 in active

the fact that, despite the assertions of
German propaganda. medical men at
the front do not suffer heavily in death

Paris Expected Attack.

PARIS. october 22-Althoush al first
/; was believed that the visit OF the
Zeppelin fleet TO France saturday was
an independent raid and the first step
toward carrying out the threat made in
a German wireless message, which said
it had been decided To destroy Paris in
reprisal for French air raids on Ger
man towns, il now is generally believed
that these eight Zeppelins. four of
which were destroyed or captured. Were
returning from England and had lost
their bearings owing TO fog and prob
ably had lost touch with their wireless
communications.
The logbook of the Zeppelin which
landed intact shows that she had been
to England. and prisoners from three
other airships confirm this. one of the
men captured said il was the lack of
gasoline that forced his Zeppelin to
descend. The raid is widely proclaim
ed by French observers as being def
mite proof of the superiority of the air
planes over the Zeppelin. The day of
Zeppelins for bombardment, one expert
said. is over. The sudden resumption
of the use of the German dirlgibles is
explained by the theory that the raid
ing Zeppelins belonged to a new type
which lately had been reported to be in
the course of construction at Lake
Constance. No reports have yet been
received that any damage was done
by the Zeppelins or that bombs were
dropped anywhere in France.

We're taken prisoners.
The first Zeppelin brought down fell
at Saint Clement, seven and one-half
miles south of Luneville, and not at
Rambervillers, is was earlier reported.
The Zeppelin was first seen at sos
am. travelling with two other airships
against a wind blowing ten or eleven
miles an hour. An anti-craft post fired
volley and the Zeppelin arose with a
bound. A second volley pierced the
envelope and the airship, bursting into
flames. took vertical position and
crashed down at 6:43 am.
Five mangled corpses were found
around the wreck The bodies of the

GUY BUSHNELL JUDGE
OF ENFIELD COURT
Csnecial to The Farmer.)


Hartford, March 14.-In the Senate
Yesterday, Guy F. Bushnell was named
Judge of the town court of Enfield.
The nomination OF Mr.. Bushnell was
vigorously opposed by Senator Neebe
of MeriGen, who declared that since
the proposal of Mr.. BushnelPs name
he had been swamped with letters
from citizens of Enfield protesting
against the appointment. Most of the
protests were made, Senator Neebe
said. because Mr. Bushnell is superin-
tendent OF a large factory there and
working people are fearful they will
not get a square deal from him should
they become involved in court pro-
ceedings. Senators Bartlett and Klett
upheld the favorable report Of the ju-
dietary committee on the nomination
of Mr.. Bushnell but Senator Neebe
challenged them to deny that the NOM
ination was not cut and dried before
Senator Klett protested that the SEN
ator was mistaken.
Lincoln w. Morrison, present town
court Judge Of Enfield, came into dis
favor with the Republicans when he
joined the Progressive party camp
The resolution naming Mr.. Bushnell
Judge passed the House several days

VIEW or IERUSALEM RHO
|cHURCH OF THE HOLY SEPUL CHER

Jerusalem, the Holy City, may
soon be in the hands Of Christians
after centuries. Reports said the
advance guards of the English troops
advancing through Palestine from
Egypt were within 40 miles Of Jeru-
salem. One dispatch had them at Ell
Chalil, which is in the mountains Of
southern Palestine and about Is miles
from Jerusalem.
The allied troops are now invading
Asia Minor from three sides, one
British force advancing into Pales-
tine from Egypt, another operating in
the, Tgris valley, while the Russians
are fighting on the Persian front.
It is believed here that if the Brit
ish succeed in taking Jerusalem the
American refugees there, numbering
over 1000, will choose to remain in
stad Of attempting to proceed to
Beirut to secure transportation to the
United States as they had planned.
The British capture Of the city would
also open new route out of Turkey
for the Americans who wish to return
to the United States in any event.
