FLYER SAVES MANY LIVES
Ship Strikes Hun Mine and Pilot and
Observer Rescue the
Passengers.

Rome-A heroic incident in the last
few days of the war has just come to
light through the publication of an
official dispatch from Durazzo.
An Italian bombing plane returning
from Scutari was flying over San Clio
vanni di Medua when those on board
saw a great column of water rise 35
miles away.
They thought at once it must be due
to mine explosion, and the apparatus
was headed at full speed for the spot.
In fact, an Italian boat had struck a
mine and been blown up. The avia-
tors soon could see persons swimming
among the pieces of wreckage.
Stopping his motor, the pilot planed
down and began the work of rescue.
Eighteen already were safe on the
wings of the plane in front of the mo-
tor turret and on the frame of the ap-
Earatus. but four others were buffeted
by the seas in little boat. There be-
ing no place for them on the plane,
the little boat was tied to it's tail and
the plane started for the shore.
The rescued persons had stripped off
their clothes to swim, and the pilot
did the best he could with his fur
lined jacket and the clothes the OBJ
server could spare.

REIMS HOSPITAL TO
Be YANK MEMORIAL
French Government Will Deed
Ground Upon Which 1t Is to
Be Erected.

Overlooking the $4,000 roofess
houses of Reims ard Overshadowed by
its battered cathedral will stand the
hrSt great memorial to the American
dead in France. This seems assured
by the official advices that have
reached the Paris headquarters of the
American fund for French wounded
to the effect that the French govern
ment will deed to- the fund ground in
the environs of Reims, on which great
American hospital will be erected.
The sum of 100000 for the purpose
has been guaranteed by the American
fund organization in the United States.
What remains to be accomplished is
the raising Of an endowment fund for
the hospital, This will be achieved by
perpetual endowments of memorial
beds by individuals. Offers of money
for such beds are already reaching the
headquarters of the fund from Ameri-
cans at home and in France. Mrs.
Benjamin G. LathrOp, tho president of
the organization, will sail soon for the
United States in pursuance of it's plans.
The American hospital at Reims will
not only constitute monument to the
thousands of American soldiers lying
buried throughout the battle areas of
France, but is intended also to be an
enduring reminder that America had,
brought relief to France even before
the American armies arrived.
