Conference Mission ary Society: Brethren Beloved: Conversions and Accessions.—Fifty six of the 62 missions of the confer , ence report a total of 1554 conver ! sions, which I think exceeds any I previous record. Only two missions had no conversions. The missions 1 having 20 or more conversions are: I Bethlehem, Olivet, 20: Weissport, i East, 20; Philadelphia, Bellfield Ave i nuc, 22; Allention, Zion and Mt. Joy, each 24: Plymouth, 26; Nazareth. l! 8: Birdsboro, 29; Myerstown. 30: t'riss i well and Sunbury, each 81; Bridge ville, 32; Fleetwood, 35; Palmyra, 40; 1 Pori Carbon. 42; Royersford and Reading.

The aver- age number of conversions for the missions reporting; is almost 28 . a very commendable record. The total accessions were 1177 and the total membership now is 8,323.

ASSAULT ON VERDUN PROCEEDS WITH FURY [Continued iYom First Page.] have not been broken at any point by the terrific assaults of the 300,000 Ger mans engaged in the offensive. It ad mits the loss of the village of Brabant, which It characterizes as nn advanced position, but disputes the German claim to the capture of Samogneux. An attack on the village was repulfced It is declared. Along the twenty-five-mile front on which the German attack is being directed the fighting ha* been of the most desperate character. Appar ently It has been particularly intensive near Beaumont, one of the strongest of the French positions, but wave after wave of German infantry rolling against the defenses has failed to dis lodge the French. They have been driven out of part of the wood of Caures, but their lines are holding farther to the east. In front of Ornes. The French explain their retreat in j certain sectors by declaring it was to avoid useless losses. The withdrawals are declared to have been effected in j perfect order. Kaiser at Front The importance which the Germans attach to the Verdun drive is indl j cated by the report that Emperor Wil liam has established his headquarters back of the German front opposite i Verdun. He is said to be making daily speeches to the troops engaged in the | great offensive, urging them not to fal ; ter in their attack. On the French side the progress of \ the battle is being followed with the j most intense interest by the public, I but confidence is expressed that the French lines will hold. The Germans, | the Parisians declare, have suffered | tremendous losses without having gained any real advantage as yet. May Use •'■l2" j Many military observers have ad [ vanced the belief that if the Germans i succeed in pushing forward as far as : they apparently have planned they will bring their 42-centimeter guns to bear on the fortress in an effort to re duce it. The possibility is pointed out, however, that unless the desired po sitions are reached, the character of the terrain might prevent tho success-' i ful employment of the German heavy : artillery for the purpose, much of the ! territory about Verdun being broken and hilly, with elevations too great to be cleared by shells from the giant guns. Paris to-day announces the bom bardment by a squadron of French aeroplanes of a railway station on the outskirts of Metz, east of Verdun, fol lowing which a great tire was ob served. Scuttle Prize After the men of the German prize ' crew on board the captured British .steamer Westburn had landed their prisoners on the Canary Islands they took the Westburn outside the harbor of Santa Cruz, Teneriffe and sank her, ( according to a Santa Cruz dispatch. The prize crew is believed to have | been from the German sea raider j Moewe which captured the British j steamer Appam. Portugal Seizes Ship An unexpected war development is reported from Lisbon where thirty six German and Austrian vessels in the Tagus river were seized yester day by the commander of the Portu gese naval division. The commander, who apparently acted on his own I initiative, hoisted the Portugese eol ! ors on the vessels and saluted them with a salvo from the Portuguese j fleet. Portugal, although not in a state of ! war with the central powers, is in close j treaty relations with Great Britain and the Portuguese congress long ago j voted to co-operate with the allies ' whenever that step seemed necessary. Pick I'p Zeppelin Letter A bottle containing last messages from the captain of the German Zep : pelln L-19, which was wrecked in the I North sea after the recent airship raid on England, has been picked up. The final message said that the airship had dropped into the sea and that the j crew was drowned. Germany is* reported to have se ! cured a second contract for 100,000 j carloads of Rumanian grain, and to I have entered into other commercial , engagements in Rumania. Heroic Italian Pilot Engages Foes High in Air While Comrades Raid By Associated Press Milan, Feb. 24. Details are now ; published of the raid carried out on | last Friday by an Italian air squadron .on Libach and it is declared to have ! been successful, chiefly on account of I the heroism of Captain Salomone, who j piloted a large machine carrying four men. The task entrusted to this ma chine was to engage adversary air craft In order to allow the other Ital ian machines to accomplish this mis sion of bombardment. Captain Salo mone attacked several machines and in the battle which ensued two of his com panions were killed and ho himself was wounded. He continued, how ever, to handle his machine so skill fully that his observer. Colonel Bar bierl, was able to keep a steady ma chine gun fire on the Austrians. Bullets rained nn the Italian aero planes from all sides and Colonel Bar bierl was killed. The pilot remained alone with the bodies of his compan ions hindering the manipulation of the levers, that of Col. L-iarbieri lying across one of the steering wires. Wip ing the blood from his eyes, for he was wounded in the forehead, Captain Salomone managed to move the body and that of another man so that he could steer.more easily, and having sufficiently delayed the pursuers to en able his fellow aviators to reach their goal, he finally landed at Palmanova and was taken from his machine in a fainting condition. King Victor Em manuel has awarded him the medal for valor.
