CBy Review Leased Wire. ]


 PARIS. June 2S.-Corporal James Norman Hall, American aviator and members of Lafayette flying squadron. who has been reported killed in an encounter with German air planes. has fortunately escaped death Though he is badly wounded, there are hopes of his recovery
 Hall was flying over the German lines when attacked by German bi- plane. After a hot encounter, seven other German mahcines came to the assistance of the biplane and in this unequal fight Hall was shot through the lung. He managed, however, with great courage and coolness to bring his machine down within the French lines. He tainted just before landing but had strength enough and presence of mind to cut off the gasoline and ease the landing, so that the machine was not destroyed.
 Hall was picked up and taken to the Soissons hospital, where he is under treatment. In addition to the wound in the lung. he received a slight bullet cut across the forehead. The doctors are hopeful of his recovery. Hall is considered one of the most daring members of the Lafayette squadron. He is a son of Mrs. A. w. Hall, of Col fax, Iowa.
