Son of King George TH. men, 86 nurses and six FRENGH AIRMEN MAKE VOW WILLING TO FACE DEATH FOR THEIR COUNTRY. One of the strangestâ€"and bravest bands of men fighting in Europe toâ€" day consists of twelve or fifteen French airmen, all army aviators, who are bound together by a weird oath of patriotism to sacrifice their lives in a battle of the air if the occasion requires it to destroy a German army dirigible and kill its crew, according to Capt. Horace B. Wild, the Chicago aweronaut, in the Chicago Sundiay Herald. Their pla;n The German Zeppelins in war times are equipped with rapidâ€"fire guns, but the gunners cannot aim at any target in the air above the balloon, _ amd â€" consequently the Fremch aviabors believe that their programme to destroy the enemy, with its attendant destruction of themselves, can be carried out, proâ€" vided they so manoeuvre as to get their monoplanes above the diriâ€" gibles before the guns can be aimed at them: _ oi Mnmet n on e Eooo ces i I" is for the aviator to take his air craftâ€"the monoplane is most popuâ€" lar with the Frenchmenâ€"high above the enemy‘s great bailloon and then suddenly drive his machine down into the big gas bag, wrecking it and sending the entire crew of from ten to twentyâ€"six men to their deaths. Swear to Charge German Dirigibles If Occasion Call For It. Capt. Wild, who has an intern@r tional reputation as & pioneer and expert in aeronautics, was inspired to tell his story of ‘the iband of French aviators and their oath by the report several days ago that Roâ€" land Garros, the French aeronaut, had sacrifieced his life in a success ful attack on a German dirigible such as has been described. "‘Whether or not the report is true," said Captain Wild, "just such a sensational incident of selfâ€" sacrifice may be looked for at any time if the present war on the Conâ€" tinent continues.‘"‘ Value of Sacrifice. A Zeppelin machine costs a milâ€" lion of francs and requires four months to construct. It has on board from ten to twenty men, whom it has cost the Genman Govâ€" ernment thousands of dollars to train at great risk over a long perâ€" lod of time, for these Zeppelin piâ€" lots cannot become efficient in the scientific manoeuvring of these maâ€" chines until after years of continuâ€" ous practice. Germany‘s sky navy is believed to ronsist of fifty Zeppelin dirigibles. There are five dirigible centres at strategic points, besides a marvelâ€" lous station at Heligoland, about which absolutely nothing is known. None but officials are allowed withâ€" in 1,000 feet of it. k The latest "air monsters,‘‘ 700 feet long, carry a crew of twentyâ€" four, six quickâ€"fire guns, seven tons of explosives, searchlights, wire less apparatus, and. a..f;etiwt nonâ€" UOmnt EPAE 0200 o inflammable gas in liquid form.

Dirigibles going up 6,000 to 8,000 feet to drop a new explosive having the property of setting on fire anyâ€" thing is hits would look from the ground no bigger than a football.
