Tho "Telegraaf" states that an "Allies' aeroplane flew over Brussels on Sunday night, making for the airship shed at Helmet. From all directions heavy artillery fire was opened on the aviator, but he was net hit. The airman dropped three bombs at Etterbek, but failed to hit the airship ahecl there. He returned to Helmet amid .renewed 'gunfire, and' dropped thre^ ■or four bombs ou tho-airshed. Great flames i

arose. It has since been ascertained that a Parseval was destroyed.

The airman afterwards dropped bombs on a large stable at Mons, containing horses.

It is believed the "Telegraaf's" story is another version of Lieutenant Wilson Milis's raid.
