KING TOLD OF RAID
ON ZEPPELIN SHED
British Ffiers Leave North
Sea, Go Far Into Interior
Of Germany.
Special cable Despatch 10 The srS.

LONDON. July o4.--An amazing story
OF how the British a!rmen reached Ton
dern. in the province OF Schleswig. and
bombed the Zeppelin sheds In the recent
raid made by the British av!ators was
told King George when he visited the
mystery ship of the Grand Fleet. This
ship is an airplane carrier. and she TOOK
the flying men and their machines to
suitable point of the German coast
and In the small hours Of the morning
several aeroplanes were despatched to
destroy the Zeppelin hangers.
Capt. Henry Dixon, a young flight
officer. arrived at his destination at
dawn and went so low in his search for
the hangers that at one time he was
within five feet OF the ground. He flew
along the whole length of the main
street and was seen by a milkman. who.
taking the machine for a German, stood
UP in his cart and waved CHEEKY good
morning.
The crews Of the German anti-aircraft
guns also seem to have mistaken the
machine for German one, for they
did not fire. Capt. Dixon went SEARCHING
for the Zeppelin sheds. He hawked
around just above the house tops urtil
he found what looked like the airship
shed. Down went bomb upon it, but
the tremendous explosion which followed
showed that he had hit an ammunition
dump which was destroyed.
Speeding along. still at a low dis
lance. he came upon the Zeppelin shed
and bombed It. Almost instantly there
was a fierce corfa grafton, flames rising
I almost 4 900 feet. This indicated the
| nature Of the target reached. and as his
object had been achieved Capt. Dixon
made for his supply ship. Tne\Germans
now put up a hsavy barrage. but Capt.
| Dixon reached home with his machine
undamaged.
The German barrage gave the direc-
ton to the other attacking machines.
Capt. Smart. who piioted one Of them,
saw by the light of the burning hangar
thatNthere was a second Zeppelin shed
which had escaped direct injury In the
first attack. With, better guidance than
his oomrade had found available. but
with enemy shells flying thick around
him, and compelled to keep much
greater height while launching his mis-
siles, he attacked and blew UP the second
shed. He returned to the supply ship
unscathed

pushed back over ten mile front for
an average distance OF one and a half
to two miles. This has been done by
British, French and italian troops,
through a very wooded country and over

perhaps Ave hundred feet above the

number Of points and now hold villages
to the north OF the Marine.
Looking az the larger scale map.
the railroad running from Scissors TO

Only One Railroad Left.
THE only way in which the enemy
can get out now. or get supplies, Is
shown by the remaining line running
from Nanteuil on the Ourcu to Bazoches
On the river Nesle. He may have con-
etructed In addition to that In and along
the valleys small temporary field rail-
roads military roads. which would be
of an advantage in handling supplies,
but his main line OF retreat must be
along the main railroads.
THAT Is the only way he can get out
large material. 1t will be observed that
It was necessary for him, II he did not
intend to be caught absolutely in a
pocket to keen troops from advancing
and cutting of this road which would
put him entirely at the mercy OF the
allied forces.
THE total area in the Marine salient
lost by the enemy during the last week
Is about equal to the area gair ed by him
in the drive in Flanders last April.

luded to in their communicate. "a local
affair north OF Montdidier. is not Tof

LONDON. July :4.--An incident OF the
visit of King George to the American
battle squadron. which forms part Of the
British Grand Fleet shows that he has
not forgotten his naval training After
inspecting the crew OF the American

Like every other vessel in the Grand
Fleet she is always in instant readiness

stokeholds the King noted this fact.
admiral Rodman thereupon suggested
that he should help to keep the vessel
in steam, and the King promptly re-
sponded by picking up shovel and
throwing coal into her furnaces in ex-
pert. stoker!ke fashion.

THE HAGUE. July 24.-The people Of
cologne are talking in an informal way
under their breath of the necessity of
great instruction. but there is no i'm
mediate prospect that IL will materialize
The German reports Of their offensive
were optimistic so long as there was
any chance of concealing the truth.
even last Friday they asserted that
they were making good progress. al
though they had lost $4,000 prisoners
to the enemy.
According to letter from a corre-
spondent in Germany. the Dusseldorf
staten at the end OF the week was tho
scene OF gatherings of people from all
parts OF the town, who assembled to
obtain II possible. some news Of the
western front from the wounded and
other arrivals. The apathy Of proceed
ing days has given place to considerable
alarm, for no one, least of all the mill
tary men, expected SUCH a strong re-
action on the part OF the Allies.
IOpt'mists are still urging that German
headquarters has something up its
sleeve and that big results are to be
achieved soon, but generally there pre-
walls noticeable disappointment over the
obvious setback to what Is still called
Germanys decisive offensive.
1t would be mistake. however. to
suppose that the peoples hearts are al
together in their mouths. for, carefully
told. the Marine advance and the pres
ent retirement represent only incidents
IN one big strategic development.
The expectations of the people at the
station were not fulfilled. for the inn
mediate approaches were closed and no
one was allowed to enter. A few men
on leave. sent home to recover. arrived,
but they either could not or would not
say anything of the situation. They
aroused considerable interest. however,
by relating incidents OF the last advance
several weeks ago
They mentioned that they had come
into contact with the American troops,
well equipped and good fighters.
There are plenty OF Them said one
man. and his audience received the in
formation sullenly.
Later, on the crowded train. there
was much discussion regarding the
Americans. One old man srumbled.

virginia.
Richmond, Va, Oct. 15.-so far as
tas state at large is concerned, the
situation growing out Of the spread
Of Spanish influenza is far from en-
couraging and in some sections con-
ditions are truly distressing. Up To
Sunday, a total of $4,000 cases had
been reported to the State Board Of
Health while 1T was estimated that the
total in the entire commonwealth
could hardly be less than 100000.
No section is being spared and IT,,
disease within the last day or so has
made it's appearance in counties Wh'ch
seemingly had escaped it. 1t is rag
ing i'll the southeaster nsection OF
Virginia and perhaps is giving even NI \
Refs sfsabie in Southwest Virginia.
The northern anaseasterp sections also
are beginning ID suffer from the ma
lady and il has likewise reached the
Eastefn Shore.
!; Forty different places have asked
the ssase Board Of Health for doctors
and in thirty-fve instances these calls
have been favorably answered. This
has been accomplished by using the
third and fourth year classes OF the
medical colleges Of Richmond and the
University. The students are reported
to be doing excellent work and with
ot thsis did ths crisis could hardly
ha met. Second year medical students
have alss been used 10 good advantage
as asssaashss. Help has likewise been
given by Surgeon General Blue who
has supplied seven physicians from the
u. S. Public Health Service.
Calls for nurses have come from
fifty different places. Some commune
ties have asked for as many as ter:
while others say they will be satisfied
TO have only one. In several rural sec
tons the country people have become
so alarmed that they decline to nurse
those who are sick of the influenza.
Substantial aid came to the State
Board Of Health Sunday when Miss
