2 AIR RAIDERS BROUGHT DOWN

LONDON. Aug. 13. Two of the Gernan machines which yesterday evening raided the English southeast coast watering places were destroyed by British naval airplanes. The official ttatement Issued by the government today says that one of the machines vas a Gotha airplane and the other a seaplane. PARIS. Aug. 13. The German's attack last night on the Alsne front in an effort to recapture trenches taken ty the French on Saturday. Today's official statement says they were repulsed with losses. Five Americans are prisoners on board a German submarine, the navy department believes. Four of these probably are the first prisoners of the American fighting force taken by the Germans. The captain of the American steamer Campana and four members of the armed guard were taken from the Eteamer when she was sunk by a Geri ian submarine Aug. 6, 140 miles west of He de Re, off the coast of France. Unfavorable weather again has hampered large scale operations in Flanders, but in Southern Moldavia the desperate fighting between the RussoRoumanians and the Teutons continues with increasing ferocity. Air Raid in England. German airplanes on Saturday raided the southeast coast of England. Bombs were dropped at points in Esses and Kent some distance from London. Twenty-three persons were killed, including nine women and six children, and nearly three score were injured. British air craft drove the Germans off and pursued them out to sea. Frankfort-On-The-Main, about 160 rUles within the German lines at Ver-

oun, has been bombarded by French aviators in reprisal for German raids against Nancy and the region north of Paris. Reports from various London correspondents indicate the probability that the German airplane raid Sunday would have been much more serious but for the preparedness of the British defense. British airplanes, at the first intimation of the enemy's approach, arose from all points, climbing upward at a terrific pace at daring angles, and before the Germans arrived fleets of British machines were in waiting. Spangler Is Accepted Earl E. Spangler, 1222 Main street, who took the physical examination for aviation service at Ohio State University in July, has been notified that he is to be enlisted as a lirst class private in the aviation signal corps. Spangler will not be placed on active duty until further orders. He has had a long experience as an auto driver and mechanic. He made application for the air service in June. GREENVILLE TRAVELING MEN PLAY THIRD CHURCH CIRCUIT

The United Commercial Traveling Men with their families and friends from Greenville, O., held a picnic at Glen Miller park last Saturday. Members of the Third Methodist church circuit were enjoying an outing and a ball game was arranged. They started in to play a five-inning rame, but several had played before. When the fifth inning ended with a He 8 to 8 they decided to play two more but the seventh Inning left them still tied 10 to 10 so the full nine were played when the score stood 12-12. The U. C. T.

MAYOR ENDORSES "SMILE" RECEPTION FOR SELECTED MEN

Mayor Robbins Monday endorsed the arrangements made for honoring the Richmond men selected for the first national army and said that every man, woman and child in Richmond should participate in the celebration. "Everyone in the city should honor these men who will soon be wearing soldiers' uniforms," the mayor said. "The celebration should be the biggest the city has ever had. "It seems to me it shouldn't be necessary to urge people very much to participate in the celebration. They should be more than willing to show their appreciation to the men who have responded to their country's call to the colors." Members of the selective army board and the committee in charge of arrangements of the celebration have agreed upon Monday, September 3, as the date for the huge event. This is also labor day and it is expected that every labor organization in the city will participate. "Send him away with a smile," Is the slogan adopted by the committee.

PRICE OF LEMONS GOES UP WITH LEAP

Two weeks ago, lemons were selling at $3.75 a case, wholesale. Today they are selling at $12, and hot weather will send them up still farther. An immense demand, a short supply of California lemons, and no lemons from Italy, are the factors in the raise, say marketmen. Forty cent3 a dozen is being asked retail. Tomatoes, late potatoes, and lima beans have been hurt by the dry weather, and supplies are becoming scarce. Blackberries, of which there was promise of an immense crop two weeks ago, will make barely a fifty percent crop. Peaches also have risen, Georgia peaches being out of the market and Michigans not yet In. The market will stay up until the Michigans come in, in two or three weeks.

Springs His Hobby; Sees Great Future

T. B. Jenkins, president cf the Vulcan Spring company, which is going to make Richmond its home, is an enthusiast on springs. With five million cars In use today, Jenkins figures, an average of one spring per car being broken each year, the replacement price being $8 per spring, he sees an enormous future for the spring industry. Jenkins will not confine future business of the company to springs, either, he says. The making of auto parts to replace those broken is a rich field in every particular, and there isn't any reason why a Richmond firm shouldn't branch out into all departments.

Richmond is Dilatory in Forming Guard Unit Efforts will be made to interest business men and manufacturers of Richmond in the organization of a militia company here under the plan of the State Defense council, before any meeting is called here for the purpose of organizing a company. Richmond backers of the movement are slower than in other parts of the county, according to L. A. Handley, a member of the committee. A company of the new militia already has been started in Cambridge City and a meeting will be held Tuesday night in Hagerstown. Younger men of Richmond, from 18 to 21 years, will be drilled by LeRoy Harding, a former member of the Ohio National guard. Harding was with the national guard on the Mexican border for about seven months. The date of the organization meeting in Richmond will be announced later.

PAY LAST TRIBUTE TO FRED C. KRONE

Officers of the State Order of Red Men attended the funeral Monday afternoon of Fred C. Krone, who died suddenly Saturday, following a stroke of apoplexy. Services at the home, 219 South Sixteenth street, were conducted by the Rev. F. A. Dressel, pastor of the First English Lutheran church, of which Mr. Krone was a member for many years. The Red Men's lodge paid its last rf.spects at Lutheran cemetery, just befort the body was lowered into the grave. , Red Men from other cities in the state who attended the funeral were Clifford E.

TIS2A GOES TO THE FRONT.

LONDON, Aug. 13. A despatch to Reuters Ltd. from Zurich says advice received there from Budapest is to the effect that former Hungarian premier, Count Stephen Tisza, has gone to the front as a colonel of Hussars.

Will Search for Wireless Along the Mexican Gulf Coast

The horse is the animal whose evolutionary history is best known. A pkeleton discovered in Nebraska in 3 916, intermediate between the threetoed horse and the one-toed of the present day, completes the story.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13. Renewed reports of hidden German wireless stations or supply bases on the Mexican gulf coat may lead to a search by American war ships. Reports to the state department and navy department contain no confirmation of the report of discovered wireless stations on Lobos island and the coast of Campeche but it was indicated that a carefurscrutiny of southern waters may be made for traces of German raders or supply crafts. Officials are inclined to minimize the reports of wireless station but a theory that German small crafts may be operating along the coast is not taken so lightly.

HARRY MORAN ARRESTED

Several hours after Harry Moran, a traveling salesman, and Dorothy Boyer, whom police say is 15 years old met, they had made arrangements to marry. Eut Moran, who is 24 years old, failed to carry out his promise, according to police. He was arrested in Anderson and returned to Richmond by Patrolman Vogelsong on a charge of contributing to the delinquency of a child.

Aire Yomi IPirepsnredl ? In spite of all reports you may have seen concerning action to be taken by the Federal or State Government regarding COAL, there are some points which you may have overlooked. 1st. Only about one-third of the normal supply of COAL generally sold by this time has been bought in Richmond. The demand will be equally heavy this year ; therefore if you wait until cold weather when the normal demand is heavy, you will find it hard to get what you want or when you want it. 2nd. When the heavy movements of troops and supplies commence, it will be harder to get freight movements than at present. 3rd. Freight conditions over the country have not improved since last winter and you remember what happened then. There are no new railroad engines or coal cars to handle the business. Indications are pointing to a serious shortage this winter. We Can Serve You Now We have a complete stock of high grade coal carefully selected to give our patrons the most for their money in this time of high prices. Anthracite Pocahontas Ebony Tennessee Hocking Valley Our prices on the above COAL are based on the Mine Price, agreed upon between the Coal Operators and the Federal Government.
