The most important towns over which the German airmen appeared were Sandringham, Yarmouth, Sher- ingham, Hunstanton, Cromer, Heach- official dispatches say a Zeppelin also appeared over Ipswich, in Suffolk county, seventy-five miles southwest of Yarmouth. Doubt has been expressed in some | Zeppelins or in aeroplanes. In Sher- saw the aircraft, and their description indicates that they were Zeppelins. At the same time dispatches from Yarmouth say it is believed there that the craft used were large aeroplanes. The small size of the bombs and the few missiles dropped supports the theory that they were not Zeppelins, as those air vessels could carry a much more formidable cargo of ex- plosives. : The raiding airmen showed excel lent ability in piloting their vessels, In | spite of the. darkness of the night, | they seemed to find their way over | the country with remarkable direct. ness, and the accuracy of their aim | with bombs was greater than gen- erally had been believed possible. Panic has followed the raid. In- | surance rates against damage by Zep- pelins in London are rising. In the i damaged towns the terror which fol- | lowed the attack is unabated. A hunt! for German spies was begun, as a re- | sult of reports that signals had been flashed to the raiding Zeppelins at Yarmouth. According to these reports : a signal was given from a house near the Aquarium theater, in Yarmouth, just before the attack began. With a lull in the battle along the center of the line from Soissons to Rheims, where the French suffered so severely last week, the scene of action’ has shifted to the two wings of the: battle front in the western zone of war. At both places violent attacks and counter attacks have been deliv- ered, and both Berlin and Paris claim progress. ; i In. the eastern. part. of. France and along the Meuse the French say that’ they have made substantial gains and , that they are now within ten miles of the outer forts of Metz, the Ger- | In that region the French have hurled forward large numbers of troops in an endeavor to isolate the German forces holding St. Mihiel and the lines of communication leading to that position, and late reports from ; official sources in Paris say that the French have captured nearly a third of a mile of German fortified posi tions about three miles from the Ger man frontier east of St. Mihiel, the objective of the French efforts in that section of the battle zone in France. This success, as reported from Paris, is of great importance, and marks the progress of a definite stra- tegic movement to force the Germans | from French soil along the Meuse. | Berlin dispatches say that at Notre! Dame de Lorette, northwest of Ar! ras, the GeGrmans have captured 200 | yards of the allies’ trenches, as well ! as two machine guns and a few pris- | oners. At other places in that section of the battle front artillery exchanges | are taking place. In Alsace, where the allies were | making progress until checked re: I cently by the arrival of German rein: | forcements, they now apparently are on the defensive. German Statement. The following official statement was | issued in Berlin: | “In the night of the 19th and 20th! German airships bombarded the forti: | fied town of Yarmouth and other] places on the English seacoast. The! attack was successful and consider | able damage was done. The airships | were shelled, but regained their home port unhurt.” i Mine Sinks Italian Ship. The Italian freight steamer Varez was blown up and sunk by a mine off Pola, the Austrian naval base in the Adriatic, according to dispatches re ceived in Rome. The freighter struck an Austrian mine and went down with all on board. Francis Joseph May Quit.

Harrisburg and reviewed the parade, Brumbaugh Takes Office. New Governor Reviews Parade of Militia and Marching Clubs — Mc. | Clain Inaugurated Lieutenant Gov: ernor. Martin G. Brumbaugh was inaugu- rated governor of Pennsylvania in surrounded by his family and many invited guests. Frank B. McClain, of Lancaster, was inaugurated lieutenant governor in the senate chamber. Both branches of the legislature then adjourned to attend the inaugural of Mr. Brum- baugh. Rev. W. J. Sweigart, of Hunting: don, a former teacher of Dr. Brum- baugh, invoked the blessing, and Chief Justice J. Hay Brown, of Lan- caster, administered the oath. The new governor then delivered his inaugural address. In strong lan- guage he recemmended to the legis: lature the enactment into law of all the policies he had declared for in his platform, including local option, woman’s suffrage, child labor law, workmen’s compensation act, ete. When Governor Brumbaugh finished his address a salute was fired at the state arsenal and the governor's party was driven over the line of parade, | escorted by the Governor's Troop of Harrisburg. They then took their | places on the stand and reviewed the parade. The governor's party consisted of state officials, judges and Mayor John | K. Royal, of Harrisburg, who occu: pied about thirty automobiles. General E. DeV. Morrell, of Phila. delphia, was grand marshal, with Col onel J. B. Hutchinson, Eighth Infan- | try, Harrisburg, in command of the military division, composed of com: panies from the Fourth and Eighth regiments; Congressman W. S. Vare, Philadelphia, in command of the civic division, composed of political clubs from Philadelphia, West Chester, Scranton, Huntingdon, Altoona, Har: risburg and other places, and M. Har: vey Taylor, Harrisburg, in command of the division comprising firemen from Harrisburg and York. The four troops of the state police were mobilized for the parade and to handle the crowds. Thousands of people from all sec: tions of the state poured into the city to attend the ceremonies. The march- ing clubs, headed by politicians of large and small caliber, and brass bands, marched cheering through the streets, many carrying banners in. scribed with Republican policies. | Governor Brumbaugh announced these appointments: i Francis Shunk Brown, of Philadel! phia, to be attorney general. Cyrus E. Woods, of Westmoreland, to be secretary of the commonwealth. James S. Hiatt, of Philadelphia, to be private secretary. West Chester Business Men Learn of Youth's Death In-German Army.

Young Lorges was a member of 2 scouting party at the time. He was nineteen years old. Six other brothers are serving with the Germans, one of them being an officer. The parents of the brothers live in Germany. Our Space for a Better Cause. This office acknowledges the receipt on Mon- day last, from the office of the United States Civil Service Commission, of the following letter, endorsing a four page circular giving the times and places that additional examinations for post- office applicants will be held in Pennsylvania. As those responsible for the opinion of this paper never had much faith in the betterment of the public service by the enforcement of a non- partisan civil service and certainly no respect for the way it has been manipulated in this county, in the selections of the postmasters who have been appointed during the past year, they be'ieve that its spacecan be put to much better use than to the service of a commission that has proven itself as inefficient, as unfair and as un- worthy of public confidence, as that commission | has. "In fact, its publishers are for the strictest enforcement of the requirements of the law regu- lating wha is known as civil service, while those laws are upon our statute books, or for the abandonment at once of the pretense of having examinations and making appointments in ac- cordance with their provisions: EDITOR, WATCHMAN: Sir: —The commission incloses herewith a copy of the schedule of examinations for fourth-class postmaster to be held in the various States in compliance with the recent order of the Presi. ent. These offices, the compensation of which range from $500 to per annum, were includ- ed in the statewide examinations held during the past year under the Executive Order of May 7th, 1913, but no eligibles were secured, and this sec- ond examination has, therefore, been announced. The examination points and offices to be filled in your State are listed in alphabetical order under sections 4 and 5 of the schedule. The commission has no appropriation out of which to pay for advertising, but it is believed that this matter will be of sufficient interest to your readers to justify you in publishing it as an item of news. ‘ By direction of the commission: very respectfully, JoHN A.
