Thursday's evening papers contained the announcement that a Zeppelin raid

took place on Wednesday night. We quote the official report :—

One hostile airship crossed the East Coast shortly before midnight. A number of incendiary and some high explosive bombs were dropped in open fields. No damage and no casualties have been reported. The airship went to sea again before 1 a.m.

This effort can hardly be described as monumental, but no doubt we are destined to see a good deal of Zeppelin activity within the next three weeks—that is, until the next period of moonlight.
