WITH THE ITALIAN ARMY, Aug. ga
Major d'Annunzio, who led the airpiane
raid against Vienna. has carried out an
adventurous personal reprisal for an
Austrian night raid in which an enemy
machine dropped a bomb literally within
yard OF his sleeping quarters. The
bomb did not explode, but the thud
broke glass from which D'Annunsio
was drinking.
Seeing that this was q matter of per-
sonal vengeance. the soldier poet Kayl,
started In the afternoon with a pilot In
a new type fast weight carrying ma
chine snd few 100 miles straight across
the Adriatic to Pola. where he dropped
fourteen bombs on the arsenal and re-
turned safely.
There was heavy barrage fire." he
said, and once / thought our tail had
been struck. but not n single one Of the
Austrian chaser machines got after us.
The Austrians are keen to get me, but
they missed a good chance this after
noon"
D'Annunzio will wear henceforth an
ivory hilted dagger. which Is the mark
of the Arditi or storm troops. All eight
of the airmen who took part In the raid
against Vienna have been named az
storm troops of the air.

It is with feelings of very great
sorrow and regret that we have heard
of the very tragic and untimely death
of Elbreth Pope Johnson, who was re-
Gently drowned in foreign waters

son and family our heartfelt sympa-
thy, and assure them that we feel
deeply their great loss.
End. That we commend them to
the God of our fathers, and also to
the comforts Of our holy religion; also
we greatly admire the heroic spirit
Of their son, that he died in the SER
vice of his country.
3rd. That copy of these resoln-
tions be sent the parents, copy

conference, and copy sent to the

| cannot see that they are any worse

This has been court week here and
there has been no unusual noise or
rowdyism. l haven't heard of a
Stacker Or deserter since we have been
here. A fine lot Of young men were
sent off last week and others are
ready to go.
I attended the district meeting Of
the woman's missionary society down
at Canton few weeks ago, and this
week attended the usual monthly
meeting here. The women are very
much interested in our work I am
afraid more so than we eastern wonn-
en-. This conference has more socie-
ties than ours.
The town is filling up fast now with
summer tourists, but we miss the
young men. We have to look at the
soldier boys and hope that our bows
are being made comfortable some
where.
