Does Germany begin to suspect that the
greatest "bone-head play" in all history was to
bring into the war a nation Of 100,000,OOO people
controlling vast natural resources and saturated
with latent abilities to produce and organize?
Whatever the war may have cost you in money
or the sacrifice of private convenience, aren't you
repaid when you read that we have million men
in France and that we launched 100 ships in one
day? If ever learn to really get together"
and produce to the limit and practice economy and
go after big objectives under the advice and di-

ZEPPELIN FALLS
UNDER ATTACK Of
BRITISH GUNNERS

London, Aug. On last night S
raid on England by German airships
one of the enemy craft. Zeppelin,
was brought down, it was officially
announced today.
London, Aug. 6.--The attempted
raid by German Zeppelins on the
East Anglican coast last night
proved to be complete fiasco, ac
cording to reports thus far received.
British fliers, who are ever on the
alert along the coast, were ready for
the visitors and met them well out
at sea, bringing down one in flames,
damaging a second and driving a
third away. What happened to the
other two airships in the squadron
is not disclosed in the official state
ment. The fact, however, that the
report said "Zeppelins crossed the
coast" is ground for the prcsump-
ton that these did reach land.
There is no evidence that they
dropped any bombs and it is proba-
bic that their crews we're kept busy
protecting their ships against pursu
ing British airmen.

CROWN PRINCE
D|SCRED|TED AS
MILITARY HERO
KAISER'S SON AND CROWN
PRINCE RUpPRECHT OF
BAVARIA AT ENMITY.
v RA N GLE OVER DEFEAT
Heir to Prussian Throne Is In Bit
ter Mood Because He Had to Call
On Rupprecht, His Rival In Army
To Help Him Out.

Paris, July 26.-,Correspondence
of the Associated Press I'LL feeling
between the German crown prince
and Crown Prince Rupprecht 1T
Bavaria had its effect on the Ger
man high command in beginning
the present offensive between Sois-
sons and Rheims. which already has
been turned into defeat. for the arm
les commanded by the heir to the
Prussian throne.
The German crown prince, ac-
cording to reports, strongly desired
that his armies should have the hon
or of striking the first blow in the
offensives of 1918. The emperor
is believed to have lent a favorable
ear to the wishes of his son, and
early indications were that the Ger
man crown prince would have an
other chance to redeem his great
failure at Nerdun.
Rupprecht Ignored Kaiser.
Crown Prince Rupprecht OF Ba-
varia. whose command is on the
northern end OF the battle line,
however, laid his case directly be-
fore the high command instead OF
before the emperor. As military
preparation it was the view of Gen
cral Ludendorff and his associates
that the blow should be struck in
the north, and without taking into
account the personal issue between
the two crown princes the high
command decided to attack in the
north. The emperor is said to have
assented rather reluctantly while
the German crown prince main
tanned that the main drive should
be made further south.
Decision having been made. the
big offensive opened i'll the north
in March and was given double
check, first east of Amiens and Sec
ond east of Hazebrough. This fail
urc gave the German crown prince
strong support for his plea that the
drive should be made against the
French lines and APPARENTLY the high
comamnd gave its consent.
His Long Drive.
On May q, the German crown
prince struck against the Chemin-
dcs- Danes and was not halted un-
til the Marnc was reached. His
next effort to reach Paris by way
of the Montdidicr Noyon front was
stopped short. His latest effort,
begun on July IS, was stopped after
three days. and at this writing the
Marine salient is slowly being wiped
out.
1t has been reported that Rup-
prccht has been compelled to send
divisions to the aid of the German
crown prince, thus probably adding
to the bitterness OF the pill of de-
feat which the German crown prince
is now having forced upon him by
General Foch.

the first mention OF a mystery
'ship was in the case OF the Bar
along, which on August 10. l9l5,
sank U-boat after the torpedo
ing of the British liner Arabic.
1t should not be forgotten. he
continues. that the Germans de-
signed mystery ships for COM
merce-and that the British
commanders showed such ingen-
uity for devising plans for trap
ping submarines.
In addition to the woman
and baby" case. the correspond
ent mentions the story of re-
tired admiral. serving as a cap
tain, who placed a hay stack on
board an ancient looking craft.
When the U-boat ordered her
to surrender. the Germans were
astonished to receive 4 broad
side from the hay stack.
On another occasion a sea
worn tramp steamer was cross
ing the North Sea when a sub
marine ordered the crew to
abandon the ship. So sure was
the German of his prey that the
bombs with which he intended
TO sink the vessel were brought
on his deck around the coming
tower. The commander of the
tramp steamer by careful man
euvering brought the submarine
within range of his concealed
guns. so tina; II required only a
shell or two to explode the
bombs and blow the U-boat out
OF the water.

"Woman andBaby" Sink
Rn;ddu1g Hun Submarine

London. Aug. 6.--Interesting
revelations regarding the work
of British mystery ships which
have played an important part
in anti-submarine warfare are
made by the naval correspond
ent OF The Times. They show
how British seamen have met
German cunning with cunning.
Until this week the public has
known nothing about the mys-
terry ships. known in the navy
as the o. ships. although sew
eral officers. notably Capt. Cor
don Campbell. have been deco
rated for their services with
these vessels. Details can now
be made public. as the Germans
are becoming aware through
bitter experience of the meth
DDS used against them.
How n woman and baby" ac-
counted for a U-boai is told by
the correspondent. The Hun
submarine ordered British ves-
sci to surrender and fired few
shells into her. The small boats
then left the ship, leaving on
board woman who ran up and
down the deck with a baby in
her arms as if mad. The L.
boat came alongside the vessel
and the woman hurled the baby
into the U-boat's open hatch.
The baby exploded and blew
out the bottom OF the subma-
rine. The woman" was deco
rated with the Victoria Cross.

porter of the opposition.
Little Time to Personalities.
Mr.. Murray followed the rule he
has been adEering to for the past
two weeks of not mentioning the
name of any of his opponents. He
devoted very little time to state is
sues or personalities, touching only
on two or three topics which have
formed the basis of attacks by one
of the leading candidates. His de-
nunciation OF the "squawman rhoor-
back" and his tribute to the Indians
of Oklahoma met hearty response.

niece of Gov. Douglas II. Johnston,

dent?" he asked. Mr.. Murray only
referred in a slight way to other
charges by Robertson. The grand
father clause, he declared, was sub
mitted in 1910 when Lee Cruce Of
Ardmore defeated him for governor.
"We both supported it wherever we
spoke" he said. This other can
didate has sought to ride into the
governors chair upon race preju-
dice and strife stirred up at a time
when, above all other times, there
should be no such tactics. | don't

A hearty laugh and enthusiastic ap-

After referring to these matters
in brief manner Mr.. Murray took
up the war speech he has been de-
livering in all parts of the state. He
spoke of the revelations that came
to the war department when a
