BOARD INTERPRETS COMPENSATION ACT

Counties, school and civil city corporations are not required to carry insurance under the workmen's compensation law, according to a ruling of the Industrial Board of Indiana. Copies of a notification to this effect were received today by the board of public works from Gilbert H. Hendren of the state board of accounts. This interpretation of the law will permit the county, the schols and the city to assume all liability for injuries to employes. The letter follows: "It is not compulsory-on public officials to take out insurance under the workmen's compensation law enacted by the legislature in 1915. This is the decision of the Industrial Board of Indiana in Rule XV. All letters, circulars and. representations to the contrary should be disregarded by township trustees, county highway, superintendents, county commissioners, city and town school corporations, civil cities and towns, municipally owned corporations, state institutions and state boards and state officials."

Suffragette Auto

Cause of Trouble

ANNA HOWARD

That beautiful yellow suffrage auto, "Eastern Victory" presented to Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, is getting her into a lot of trouble. First the auto was seized by the horrid Delaware County authorities as security for taxes, which Dr. Shaw has refused to pay, arguing as per our Revolutionary forefathers "No taxation without representation." - Represented or not, they took the auto and are still holding it. Now Dr. Shaw's chauffeur comes forward and says the suffrage president has not paid him his salary for guiding the destinies of "Eastern Victory' along the high ways and byways. The auto is to be sold at auction at Media, on July 24, say the authorities. The chauffeur says he wants his money right away.

LIFE ON ZEPPELIN DURING RAID, MAKING ATTACK ON COAST TOWNS

AMSTERDAM, July 20. A writer in the Cologne Gazette gives the -following description of a Zeppelin raid on England: - Lieutenant Commander X., in command of h , enters the . airship shed. The crew of two deck officers and twelve non-commissioned officers is 'already at ..work.; j;r.:?j:.r;. One of the officers satisfies himself that the supply of petrol is complete, while th other superintends the carriage of bombs and incendiary missiles into the gondolas. ' There is silence in the great hall, of which the doors have been opened. The men who hold down the vessel are in their places. The crew are at their stations in the gondolas. The officer in charge reports "All in order" to the skipper, who calls out instruc

tions to discharge the water ballast There is a rush of water and the vessel gradually rises above her props and floats in the air. f. The captain paces her whole length, scanning her with careful eye. Then he climbs into the front gondola and orders her to be taken out. The lieutenant repeats the order, "Airship forward," and the men with the mooring ropes tow her into the open. . Springing to his feet he shouts "Loosen," and the mooring rope at the bow Is let go. t Clears for .Trip. She is now held only by the gondolas, Into which the lieutenant now climbs. A cry of "Tention," and a long shrill blast from the boatswain's whistle," the ' last ropes are dropped, and almost simultaneously the engine

room telegraph signal, "Motors full speed ahead."" With a noise like thunder the propellers spring Into life, the vessel shoots forward and up. The forward gondola resembles the bridge of a warship, and the skipper bends over his maps. The vessel advances in a straight line to the northwest- A number of fishing Vessels can be seen at sea,' all flying the Dutch flag, but the skipper knows that British fishermen - even near their own coasts now seldom fly anything else. f 8ails for England. By 3 p. m. his mission Is at an end. He had received orders to be back at the hangar before dusk, but the weather being favorable he telegraphically asks permission to act on his own Initiative and profit by. the favorable opportunity. "Agreed," is the reply. ;. Continuing his flight to the northwest he determines to deliver a blow against the English-coast. It Is yet twilight -when he approaches England and ascends to a height of 5,500 feet in order to Keep out of sight , of the watchful eyes : on i board England's guardships. - Through a rift In the clouds a destroyer can be seen making the round of guardships. .There is nothing yet to be seen of the land, but a blackish mistiness on the distant ' horizon is recognized by trained eye as smoke

from the chimneys of an Industrial district. , - He remains above the clouds until It is dark, then, pushing on to the coast, he detects in the dying daylight the two moles marking the mouth of the river which he is seeking. Almost simultaneously come flashes of artillery fire from below. The rudder swings around, and steering past the attacking fortress, the airship is over the yards, arsenals and munition factories. ;- The airship's gunner is lying on his face by the sighting apparatus and

-fires at the targets over which he is

being steered. There are now flashes beneath us which do not proceed merely from the enemy artillery. The displacement of air, due to a tremendous explosion, is felt in the gondola. Below a large factory is seen to collapse. ' , The windows of other workshops suddenly become dark. , The men in the gondolas are under the impression that they see policemen hurrying through the streets with cries of warning, because house after house is suddenly swallowed in darkness, until the town and suburbs are incomplete ob-

A process has been invented - India for procuring saltpeter of about 94 cent, purity. .
