FAMOUS VESSELS
IRE TARGETS
FOR AIRCRAFT
LONDON, April 5 (by mail).—More
than fifteen tons of bombs were
dropped by British aircraft at or upon
the disabled former German battle
cruiser Goeben while she lay aground
at Nagara point, in the Dardanelles,
last January, after a disastrous sortie,
says a detailed story of the affair
which has just been received here.
Two hundred and seventy-five air
plane flights w'ere made in an attempt
to complete the destruction of the
warship.
Eight or ten airplanes continuously
harried the Goeben and Breslau dur
ing their sortie from the Dardanelles,
compelling them to steer a zigzag
course which eventually brought the
Breslau into a British mine field,
where she was hit by an aircraft
bomb and sank.,
The Goeben, heading for home, also
struck a mine and developed a seri
ous list. Aircraft continued to bomb
her while she entered the straits and
ran aground at Nagara point. Eor
seven days she remained there, sub
jected to continued attacks from the
British aircraft.
On January 29 a British scout ma
chine lighted the Goefben in the ar
senal drydoCks at 'Constantinople.

HIM SUL Bits
LONDON, May 7.—Dining in public
places must stop at 10 p. m,, and the
atrical performances must end at
10:30 p. m., under the curfew order
which became effective last month.
The regulation, issued under the “de
fense of the realm act,” is intended
to save the use of coal and gas for
lights and fires.
“Dora,” as the defense of the realm
act is popularly known, has now been
responsible for something like 213 or
ders since its birth in November, 1914.
Its powers range over a wide and va
ried area, and deal with regulations
for the destruction of stray dogs to
the control of mines, canals, highways
and shipping. The civilian population
is controlled by it in a way not even
dreamed of before the war. /

ML-BEARDED SOLDIERS
STAND TEST OE GAS
«
AMSTERDAM, May 7.—To be clean- |
shaven or bearded like the pard is
the alternative presented to the Ger
man first line troops. The reason is
to be sought in the gas mask. Some
authorities hold that the mask can not j
be relied upon to protect any but
clean-shaven faces; others again hold
that a dense hirsute growth within
the nuy,k acts as an additional air
filter, but it must be a real patriarchal
T>eard—no mere seven or fourteen
days' bristles, says an article in the
Deutsche Tageszeitung.
The writer holds that the full beard
is a peculiarly Teutonic attribute, and \
I should be cultivated as such. Besides.
I according to ancient tradition, it adds
| to a “frightful aspect,” he naively!
| adds.
Gas tests at the front in air-tight
cubicles are carried out every fort
night, and full-bearded men testify to
the additional security afforded by i
their heards.
