Exploits of U-21
. Toldby Writer
(Correspondence of The Associated Press.)
BERU.V, March 4--The second of Otto
von Oottberg's semi-official accounts of
the German navy Is devoted to the ex
ploits of submarine. U-21. He write:
"On the torpedo tube of the C-21 Is
now the Inscription: Through 1 shot
from thin tube, on August , 1014. the
captain tank the English cruiser rath
finder.' Of thin encasement. Lieutenant
Commander von Iteming; (Iron Crow)
aid: It wanted to enter the Klrth of
Forth, but I lay across Its course and
sank It. An Kngllsh destroyer pursued
me. but I naturaly took the tT-21 under
the water, and we e soared safely.' "
Of the recent work of U-21 tn the
Irish sea, von Oottberg MKT: "Soon
after January 20, the taut put to sea. It
headed for the vicinity of Liverpool, and
sank the Hen fruachan, loaded with
general canto. While the Hen Truachan's
boats were still In sight the Linda was
sunk. Then a coal steamer sppeared
and Lieutenant Merging waited for it,
but' by this time the "wireless ha-1 sent
an echo of the thunderous .explosion on
the Hen CTuachan Into every office of
British shipowners, and Herslng waited
in vain for several days for new booty.
Hut John Bull was clever; he had or
dered the . stoppage of all shipping- In
the Irian sea-
"From Liverpool Bay, Hersing cruised
off into the Irlah Sea, bombarding an
airship shed as he passed. A neighbor
ing port shelled the little attacker, whlcn
dived unharmed and proceeded leisurely
homeward."
Germany Starts Lace
Making to Help the
Women and Girls
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
. BRUSSELS, March 20. The German
civil government has decided to do some
thing to enooursge the Brussels lace
trade during the war. A concern called
the "burean for encouraging and promot
ing the lace Industry during the war" has
been organised here under the auspices
of the government Its object Is to find
a market for Brussels lace In Germany
and thus make It possible for the thous
ands of lace workers of western Belgium
mostly elderly women sad girls to find
employment.
These women have hitherto received a
small part of the profits going to agents
and merchants.. It la claimed that when
a lace collar was told for 80 francs the
women who made It received only 50
franca, rm maximum, for her labor. The
German bureau proposes now to remedy
this discrepancy. It will not be allowed
to make a profit, beyond covering Its
own expenses; and by offering luces
cheaply In Germany, giving the buyer a
part of the profits that previously went
to the middleman, the bureau hopes to bo
able to par better prices to the lace
maker than they have been earning In
peaca. ,

Wants Military
Drill as Part , of
Educational Course
(Ubrresnondence of the Associated Treaa.)
LONDON, Mann SI. The recent re
fusal of the educational authorities to
sanction the Introduction of military
drill In the elementary schools of London
and pther cities lias caused much dissatis
faction, and the matter has been taken
up; by. several members "of parliament,
who propose to see that it Is discussed
during the present session.
In the House of Lords the matter has
been brought to the attention of. mem
bers by. a motion Introduced, by Lord
.Wllloughby de Uroke:
"That, in the opinion 'of this house,
definite military, drill. Including the use
of arms, should from henceforth form
part of our national system of education,
and that cadet corps', with universal mem
bership thereof, should be by law estab
lished In all male public- schools and col
leges In the United Kingdom."
Here's a Wound that

(Correspondence oftha Associated Press.)
LONDON. Feb. a. One of the curious
effects of shell explosion reported at the
military hospitals la the toss of the senses
of taste and araell. tr. Charles Myers
states that be haa met three cases of

ceived no flesh wounds at an. but because
of their toss of senses they could not
distinguish by tasts between sugar,
quinine, acid and salt, which (alt alike

."These cases appear to constitute a
definite class among shell-shock effects,"
says Dr. Myers. "The shell In question
appear to have burst with , considerable
noise, scattering much dust, but this was
not accompanied by the production of
odor. It Is, therefore, difficult to under
stand why hearing should be unaffected
and the 111 results confined to the senses
of Kltfht. smell and taste. The close rela
tion of these rases to those of hysteria
appears certain.
