Sir Joseph was insistent that no

RAIDERS AT DOVER?
Guns at Port Opened. Fire probably
on Submarines.
LONDON, Feb. 2.—The batteries
Protecting Dover opened fire last
night on what is thought to have been
another German raid, but whether by
Zeppelins or submarines or both, has
not been ascertained.
An early report from Dover said
that five hostile airships were observ-
ed over that town, while a later re-
port announced that they had been
driven off by the gunfire of the forts.
Another Dover message declared
that the fire had been directed at Ger-
man submarines.
As .a consequence the War Depart-
ment instructed the London police to
make all preparations for an air raid.
The city was soon in darkness, and
everywhere the news spread that a
Zeppelin fleet was on its way to the
metropolis. Telephone calls to Har-
wich, Cromer, Southend, King's Lynn,
Yarmouth and other points elicited
the reply that no air raiders had been
seen. The report of submarines at
Dover seemed to explain the gun -fir-
ing there, but no official press bureau
statement was issued.

Billy had a notion he could make the
Nations dance;
First he'd slaughter Belgium, then
he'd tackle sunny France
England was so little, and tier army
was so small,
He'd simply o'er the Channel cross
and watch the Kingdom tall.
Chorus -
Its a long sun to St. Helena,
It's a long way by sea;
It's tog un to St Helena,
To place .prepared for ane.
Good-bye scraps of paper, Farewell
Europe fair,
It's a long, long sunt to St, Helena,
But I'll soon be there."
&weia may be mighty and her Coe -
sacks may be tall;
Bill% was undaunted, he could easily
lick them nal,
Paris Calais, Dover, in their turn
would bite the ground,
While over in Old England, Ire .vould
surely then be crowned.
It was little Belgium put the kink in
Billy's pride;
France and England held the ,lay,
while Russia' got her stride,
Billy got excited, when he could't
reach the sea;
And shouted "It's the world that's
bad don't lay the blame on me;'
