THROWING OF BOMBS INTO MAZATLAN BY AVIATOR PROVOKES
PROTEST
AM
ER CAN
Three Non-combatants, Including a Seven-Year-Old Girl, Killed by Operations of Rebel Birdmen.
BY LEASED WIRE1 I-OS ANGELES, Cal., May 18. Bharp protest by Rear Admiral Howard, of the American navy and the commander of the German cruiser Nurnberg at Mazatlan has forced the Constitutionalists besieging that Mexican port to abandon their bomb dripping operations, according to advices here today from the correspondent of the International News Service aboard the U. S. S. California. The correspondent transmitted a thrilling story of the operations of a rebel aviator at Mazatlan confirming the report that four persons were killed and eight wounded in the city on &lay 7, when a bomb was dropped from
n aeroplane flying 2,000 feet above the ground. Among the killed was a seven year old girl. The three persons killed were toon-combatants. File Note of Protest. The Joint German-American protest was then sent by the two naval officers to General Obregon, the Constitutionalist commander. The note was taken by the two American officers through the federal and rebel lines under a flag of truce to Obregon's headquarters. The protest was successful and the aviator ceased his operations. The bomb dropping was described as follows by the correspondent: "I witnessed the dropping of bombs from the deck of the California, while watching the artillery duel that had been in progress since dawn between the stranded federal gungoat Morelos end Fort Bosales on one side and the rebels upon Monte Silla on the other. Wipe Out Family. "When the aeroplane flew away it left behind and far below it a home torn in ruins and a wounded mother vailing over the dead body of her child while nearby lay the dead father "of the family and two other men, while In the street outside, crawled away eight horribly torn and bleeding peons, half crazed with the horror of what had fallen from the skies. "The family had been breakfasting when the tube of nitroglycerine fell into the street before the adobe house near the Methodist church in a street that bore the incongruous name of ''the carnival." "If they saw the aeroplane before sitting down to breakfast as thousands of othvr people in the city saw it sailing out of the south they did not fear it. The Mazatlan people are accustomed to aeroplanes. There are six of them in the rebel army. They have Bailed above the city dropping Obregons manifestoes, accusing the Huerta government of treason and telling the townspeople that if the Americans invaded Mexico, he would fight them to the last of his resources. "So when this aeroplane appeared the folks here said: " 'Obregon's postman is busy again, lie brings compliments. Buenas Diaz, Senor.' Aeroplane Drops Bomb. "The aeroplane grew larger as it 4;rew nearer. It passed on overhead until it was over the fort on 'Round Top.' Then from it descended a tiny object. The black tube fell swiftly. Made of a piece of four inch pipe weighing 85 pounds, with its load of 40 pounds of nitroglycerine and with a detonating cap at each end, the bomb xploded with frightful force when it etruck. I have the exact description of the bomb from refugees who witnessed the manufacture. "When this one crashed into the etreet a big hole was torn into the roadway, the thoroughfare was filled with pieces of adobe clay and fragments of iron and a dense cloud of black smoke arose. The house fronts Were shattered for a block. "Within ti minutes Mazatland was a city of shuddering fear. The aeroplane passed on and dropped another bomb, but this fell harmlessly into en open space near the fort. Then the aviator sailed out of view in the direction of the rebel lines."

After One Wild Heave in First Kenney Hooks Mayor in Opener
"Ladies, Gentlemen and Fellow Rooters The tension of a moment like this is anything but right for a speaker to attempt to give an address. I'm not going to deliver a tirade on the issues of the hour as I know the fans are anxious for the umpire to say "Play Ball." All I care to say is that I know that the Richmond team is putting up a fair and square game and that ialr-play is the keynote of the Quaker players. I think that is all I have to say." Whereupon Mayor Will Robbna, who delivered the above message, 6trode to the pitchers' box and received a brand new ball from Dick Kenney. Novack, the Quaker catcher, slapped his big mlt as a signal for a "spit ball out" and Teague, the Cincy lead-off man, gripped his bat firmly. Then according to time-honored custom Mayor Robbins threw the ball over Novack's head; Teague chopping at the throw, the fans applauded and the season of the Richmond baseball club was officially on. Game A Real Opener. . Yes, Mr. Fan, it was a real opening. The weather was ideal, the game one
of the best ever seen here, the umpiring fair, with pop, peanuts, cigars and all the other essentials of a baseball opener. Some fourteen hundred bugs took advantage of the day. Kenney's men walloped the Cincy aggregation, which aU agreed was one qf the best teams ever playing here. The grandstand and bleachers were packed while the loft foul line was lined with
humanity as far as the club house." Another feature of the program that deserves honorable mention was the exhibition of the national game's inside workings; given by "Red" Ireton, utility man and ground keeper of the Richmond club. "Red" demonstrated the how and the why of the game and the enthusiastic applause that was afforded his efforts showed that his work had not been in vain. Ireton will be saved by Kenney for any pinches that the team may happen to fall into in some of the heavier games of the coming schedule. Before the start of the game. Mayor Robbins, players and managers of the teams lined up before the grandstand where the group was snapped by a Palladium representative.
Glen Miller park surrendered some of its large Sunday crowd to Morton park and although there are no benches in the new park, it is estimated that 4,000 persons strolled through the grounds and rode on the Wild, Rover, the row boats or the motor boat. There were some swimmers and a few canoes, giving the lake a live appearance. It was the ideal day of the spring and few people stayed indoors although the motion picture theatres and the Christian Science lecture drew
their share. In every direction from Richmond, city people infested the country, while in most cases, the country people came to the city.
It was the first Sunday that Morton
lake has been filled and its popularity
is now assured for the remainder of the season. Forty acres of water so near to the city after Richmondites have had only the two acre Glen lake
and the Whitewater river, presents
pleasure beyond estimate to acquatio lovers. The company still has men at work on the park and expects to have the roads in better condition soon. A fill will be made next the dam to make the road across the bridge. The concrete and brick streets surrounding the park are nearly completed and half of the cement curb is in place. The summer cottage of Harry Frankel is now permanently occupied by Sol Frankel and his family. Richard Sedgwick is building a big cottage of logs with a boulder foundation. It is said that a half dozen more cottages will be started wMbtn the next two weeks.
