[SAVED BY AEROPLANE.]
A curious story of the Kaiser's youngest son, Prince Joachim, wafted away in an aeroplane when in danger of capture is told by a wounded Russian lieutenant.
The officer says at the battle on November 24 the Prince was in command of a German force which occupied a village after driving the Russians from it. The Czar's troops, however, received reinforcements and reoccupied the place after a tough fight.
When the Prince heard of the recapture, he jumped on a horse and galloped off after the retiring troops.
Three aeroplanes were circling above to discover and rescue the Prince. Two of the aviators who attempted to descend came into the Russian fire and were disabled.
By this time the Prince was with a number of German troops completely surrounded by Russians. His position seemed very critical. Just in the nick of time the third machine came down near him and the Prince, taking a seat thereon, was borne away to safety.
[THE DEADLY AIR BOMB.]
A correspondent of the Central News in northwestern France says:
"In attempting to destroy a railroad station, a Taube aeroplane dropped two bombs on Hazebrouck. The first did no harm, but, on returning, the aeroplane dropped a bomb on a curious crowd gathered about a hole made by the first missile, killing ten and wounding five civilians, including women and children."
