A despatch from Paris says: -
Capt. Emile Pierrot, who met death
with five others in the French airplane
which caught fire in its'trip to London
last week, was a famous war aviator.
His death particularly affects Paris-
ians, for Pierrot was chiefly•instru-
mental in the destruction' of the huge
German: Berthas which toward the end
of the war fired shells , into Paris.
Pierrot's squadron had the signal
honor of destroying two of these great
guns in one day by dropping bombs
from airplanes and hitting the guns
squarely:
When, the guns resumed; Pierrot de-
stroyed another, flying as low asfifty
meters to drop the bombs with deadly
effect. Ile also discovered the aero-
drome whence the German- Gothas

A Unique Suggestion.,
Don C. Seitz, r'
supervising directo
,,of the "New York World'', proffere an
:'unique suggestion which at the same
i -time appeals in point to practibility
in 'every aspect. This is no less than
that the pulp and: paper manufactur-
ers of the United States adopt the,
practice of moving their mills to Can-
ada, where there is a more ample sup
ply of wood, and water -power, and
that the water=power now used to
I' operate such mills in the Republic be •
hydro -electrically ' developed„ so that.
the current can be devoted to the .op-
eration of. other industries.
He points out that at the present
time most of the wood used in these
plants conies. from Canada, and that',
the manufacturers consequently suffer
from certain disadvantages by reason
of being at such a distance from their
source of - supply. He also observes
that paper mulls -require, an enormous
amount of water-pawer,,andthat with
the slaughter of the forests has come
a depletion in the flow of power
streams., It -is his idea that the sites
now used .by pulp and- paper mills
could be given over to hydro -electric
developments and the electric energy
spread' among enough other industries
requiring 'less' power to industrially
offset the loss of ; the paper mills to
the United States.
Among other advantages disclosed
upon consideration 'are. the solution of
the coal `.problem for industries now
compelled to rely on steam -power be- are anxious for peace with Britain.
