14 SHAFFER TELLS HOW HE DOWNED BOCHE AIRPLANE [Continued From Page One.J distance, but a regulating of the speed of your motor at the right moment, as well, else when the lead •er turns you may collide with one of your comrades, or worse yet, lose the patrol. But Lieutenant Madon, with years of experience and some forty Boche to his credit, was very easy to follow and I and the lieutenants had little trouble in staying in place. We climbed up to 6,000 meters and for one hour we floated around at that height of rare and cold air. it was very clear, despite the fact that many clouds were in the sky, and when we were over Spissons it was quite easy to see Rheims, which if you look on a map, will see that is some distance away. It was very cold up there and what with the cold air rushing past and the rarity of the air, 1 soon had a fierce headache. I already had the stomachache and had it ever since leaving the ground, so I was hoping we would either go home or get in a fight, as 1 could for get these ever present troubles. As if in answer to my wish the leader suddenly began to dive, and promptly following, immediately saw why. for far below and some distance away was a big Boche plane coming to ward us. A Big Bird j He was an enormous bird and l had little trouble in seeing the black cross in its circle of white on his large wings, as I watched my com mander in his blood red plane go down to the attack. Diving steeply as he was, with the Boche coming head on. made shooting with any degree of accuracy out of the question for witn | the two plants terrific speed an awful, big correction had to be made. There fore. he did not go so close, and soon pulled up to give the next in line a chance. It was one of the lieutenants, and he lost no time getting after that Hun, who seeing four Spads coming J down on him, started to turn and i dive for home. It was then that the ; second in line went scooting under i me to the attack, but his gun stuck i and he also pulled up and turned , aside so as to give the next in line a i chance to do his bit. I happened to j Pe third, and seeing it was up to me , I forgot all about the head and stom- ; ache aches in the excitement of get- : ting that Boche in line with my sights, i That requised but a few seconds, as , the Boche was diving for Berlin | with all the motor he had and was • not wasting any time doing funny ; little twists and turns, which made aiming for me a simple matter, (getting the Aim All I had to do was get him in the l sight, pull on enough motor to over-1 haul him and keep shooting. So with ! on hand on the throttle, the other | hand gripping the "joy stick" and j trigger lightly, an eye glued to the sight. I swung into position behind that fleeing Hun. As the sight swung j on him in response to the controls, 1 let go with both guns. I could see , the tracer bullets as they went whist ling towards their mark, leaving a trail of smoke behind them. But they were not going quite true, passing ai little bit to the left of where the pilot and observer should be, (as it was a biplane), so 1 gently pressed on the right foot and was gratified to see | every smoking ball go home —and ; then suddenly that Boche disappear ed as completely as the one I shot at nea. Rheims in company with Putnam. I had been pretty close to him too and was catching him all the time, but I was also getting very low. near 3.000 meters, considering I was some ten miles in Germany, and suspecting some trick, pulled up and turned fori our lines. Looking around meanwhile I to see what had happened to that, Boche and whether any protecting; Boche planes were l above it. for I had: not forgotten the time i had attacked j another biplane and four Huns came: down on nfe. They had merely used the big plane for bait and when I hit, j down they came. You remember, J; told vou about it. that being the time my gun was shot out of commission,; my "Becky" nearly shot off and six holes in my wings. Having had this: trick firmly impressed on me you can: w ell believe I had not forgotten it. I suspected the stime trick here which accounted for my careful inspection, of the sky as the "Archies" began breaking around me as I went back to the lines. And sure enough, there, were two, right overhead, but hap pily it was my commander and one; of the lieutenants, so all was well| again. We soon picked up the other lieu- j tenant and then climbed high again.; headed for Soissons. where numer ous white puffs denoted the presence of a Boche. There were half a dozen there in a bunch, although 1 saw, none, but they were too far in their lines in the judgment of our leader to attack, so he dove for the home roost. Just as we grrived over the "piste": my reservoir refused to work, so T switched onto the other one. and came down to land. Golly! what aj landing! 1 hit the ground and; bounced twenty feet. Seeing that I' could not make a good landing cut of such a bad start, I pulled on the! motor again, made a circle of thtj field and tried again. This time Ii landed without trying to break the, wheels first. As I rolled up to thej hangar the gunsmith came up and i asked the usual question, "Did youi shoot?" Yes. I had shot, but noti • ■•lich and did not know whether the! • •lie fell or not. It's a fact. I only '•■• t about fitly shots with each gun, t .t seemed to have done the trick, ' r on asking my leader what hap neii to that Boche he counterques ■ned by asking whether I was the 'bird one that attacked. "Yes, l! h d." "Congratulations," said he with his grinning smile and a hearty i shake' Of the hand, "he crashed"! And that was where the Bofche had| gone when I lost him—straight down i lo the ground. No wonder I could; not find him. Honored by Commander So pleased was my commander at: my keeping in place in the patrol as! well as bringing down the Boche that he invited me to dinner with! the officers, an honor, by the way.| that few sergeants have ever en-: joyed. Believe me. I sure was! swamped with attention and feari some blushes even showed through' the Sunburn, for riding to the din- 1 ing hall in the officer's car, another ace in the escadrille insisted I sit' beside him. From the way he said it. you would have thought I was! doing him an honor. And then when he reached the diningroom I was introduced to riy commander's wife, a pretty little' thing as Frenchy and chic "as theyl make them, who shook my hand and prettily congratulated me also. Golly! After that I felt like going out and! shooting up another Hun. The dinner was not such a wonder- 1 ful affair, being the usual carrot and' meat affair, hut it was much enliven-! Ed by my commander's spirits, who! tried, much to the amusement of the' company present, to speak English, j even nsking his pretty wife to kiss him. Unfortunately, she did not' understand him. so he didn't get It.i Tlic Decoration Tt was indeed a red letter day in my existence, for not only had I brought down another Boche, but was supping with the second French nd he Insisted I sit on hie - - f —" 11 1 1 11 WEDNESDAY EVENING, , HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH SEPTEMBER 25, 1018. right hand side. too.

ARCHBISHOP DIES IN ST. PAUL; WAS LEADER [Continued from First Page.] play, called to John Ireland and Thomas O'Gorman —who later became | bishop of Sioux Falls—to come into i the church. He asked them if they ! wished to become priests. Both he and his playmate agreed 'hat priest hood was the ambition. Bishop Cre tin sent them, in charge of a guar dian. to France, where they were educated by the Marist Fathers. When lie heard of. the outbreak of the Civil War in America the student turned 1 homeward, tired with a* much patri- J otism as religion. After bein ordained at St. Paul, he eagerly accepted an appointment as j chaplain in the Fifth Regiment of the Jilinnesota Volunteers. An Ardent Unionist ' He was ardent for the Unionist cause and shared every hardship of the soldier's life In their terrible win ter raids. At luku he ave yeomans help by rushing ammunition to the front when it was sorely needed. He was striken with fever after less than a year's service and returned to a St. Paul pastorate. He soon attracted national atten tion through his work for temper ance. The story Is told of how on one January night in 1869, three drunkards . staggered into his door way and handed him a rumpled sheet, which read: "For God's sake organize a Tem perance Society." The paper was signed by seven men including a saloon keeper. Those were the days when St. Paul was filled with border turbulence and yte riot of drink. The next Sunday Father Ireland be gan his eampain by organizing a Temperance Society of eighty mem bers. He made hut-to-hut visits to St. Paul's shantytown, throwing whisky bottles out of the squalid doorways. The work he thus began he extended throughout tlie north west and traveled the whole country preaching temperance. He even car ried the battle back to Ireland and Great Britain. His energy was so abundant and his zeal for work such that the term "consecrated blizzard" as applied to him by one of Ills ad mirers was accepted i}>" many others as a peculiarly happy expression. He at one time conceived the idea of consolidating the Catholic paro- chlal schools and the public schools. The plan was tried at Falrabault and Stillwater. Minn., but friction which the archbishop could not relieve tirose and the scheme was drqpped. He was founder of the Hill seminary on the Minnesota side of the Missis sippi river. To this he gave his high ly-prized private library, one of the most comprehensive in the northwest. One of his early works was ttie found in of a colony of 900 Catholic farmers in western Minnesota in 1876. He became Bishop in 1876 and Arch bishop in 1886. He received support from many of his admirers for ap pointment as the fourth American Cardinal. Celebrating his golden jubilee a few years ago, the priests of his diocese presented hint with a purse of $lOO,OOO. As a speaker Archbishop Ireland was dir#t and magnetic, with a senso of liutno?. One of the phrases which has often been quoted as char acteristic of his particular endeavor in life is this: "The watchwords of the age are reason, education, liberty, the ameli oration of the masses." Mt. Union Negro Shoots Three Brothers After Quarrel; One Dying ' Mount Union, Pa.. Sept. 25. This powder town was the scene of a shooting affray yesterday, when one negro whipped out a revolver and be fore he had emptied the chambers of his six-shooter Itad punctured the bodies of three brothers —William Kogers, John H. Rogers and WJ H. Rogers, brothers, and Oolored. The man who wielded the revolver was Samuel Hurd, ft former companion of the Roger brothers. Recently the men quarreled for some unknown reason and the feud has apparently since existed. Yesterday Hurd went gunning for his former friends and found them in frgont of their home. Without giviing his victims a chance to defend themselves, Hurd whipped out a thirty-two-caliber revolver and began pumping lead in the direction of the brothers, all three falling to the ground. William Fogers is so bad ly wounded taht he is not expected to live. The wounds of the other two are not considered fatal. Hurd immediately ran out of town, closely pursued by several members of the State Constabulary, and was captured about four miles away from here, giving himself up with little or no resistance.
