Marshall and their party attended divine services In -St. Matthew's Church, the distinguished representative of President Wilson enjoyed to the full a day of rest and quiet social relaxation. IS DAY OF IDEAL tVEATHER.

It was a day of ideal weather for country life. California deserved to the utmost extent its name of "sunny." And yet here was all day long breeze that tempered the warmth, and which sent long, rolling waves of cooling sea-air through the heated valley, laden with pungent perfumes from orchards heavy with blossorri and from millions of flowers. Both Mr. and Mrs. Marshall expressed their hearty enthusiasm over the many beauties of the valley through which they motord.

and the magnificent, estate where they were welcomed and entertained with his-pltallty that, while never ostentatious, was yet worthy of the best traditions of a Stte renowned for hospitality.

Senator Phelan personally conducted his two most distinguished guests, the Vice-President and Mrs. Marshall. He called for them at the Fairmont Hotel between 9 and 10 o'clock. The Vice-President and his wife were awaiting him. Both looked as fresh and as sunny as the day outside, despite the late hour at which they had retired the night before after the ball following the dinner given them at the St.

Francis Hotel by Mr. and Mrs. William Randolph Hearst. Speeding through town the motors joined the processional stream of other motors streaming out of the city toward the valley. Through all the sunny, tlDwer-decked little towns and villages along the valley road they passed at a epeed held to a rale that would permit the Vice-President and his wife to enjoy fhe view of the landscape tl.at opened out like a vast panorama as they proceeded.

None knew who they WPre and their identity remained un-revealed until after the service, when tiif. senior warden.

The record, all the more remark-'ile because of 'the disastrous war, which has prevented upon thousands of visitors from the ocean, was viewed last light with utmost pleasure by Expo- i Ion officials and was looked upon the herald of far greater suc- (r-es to come.

French Aeroplane Patrols and Anti-Airships Guns Drive Off Aerial Invaders After Fifty Bombs Are Hurled on City Seven or Eight Persons Injured, but Only One Seriously in First Raid of Kind on Capital, Which Is Regarded as a Failure Populace Warned by Blowing of Whistles; Lights Turned Out and Residents Calmly Leave Beds and Watch Operations BY C. F. BERTELLl.

PRIS, March 21. The first Zeppelin raid on Paris was carried out early to-day. Half a hundred bombs were dropped In the city and thirteen In the suburbs. Seven or eight persons were Injured, one serU ously, but none fatally. The material damage was slight.

The raiders were driven off by French aeroplane pa trols and the fire of anti-airship guns. One of the raiders appeared to have been hit. In their retreat the raiders dropped bombs on Compiegne, Eibecourt and. Dresllncourt. Some were explosive, and some of incendiary character.

No damage was suffered at these places. PEOPLE IS GAY PARADE. Probably the most remarkable fea ture of the raid waa the deportment of the population. Warned of the coming of the Zeppelins, men and women, clad In night attire, flocked In gay and jocular processions from their sleeping aaprtments to tho streets; or, in the case of the more discreet to the cellars of their homes. The discipline of the city's residents was marvelous.

There was complete absence of panic. The raid generally waa counted a failure. It served, however, to Illustrate the high -efficiency of the city's defense against aerial attack. When the Zeppelins approached whistles were blown and the sleeping residents aroused, all lights were extinguished and when the raiders arrived over the city the capital was completely ob-scured. FOIR BOMBS OX CITY, Trefect of Police Laurent to-day furnished me with official details of the damage caused by the two air monsters which succeeded in arriving over the capital.

He said: "Nobody was killed and of those wounded none Is expected to die. "In Rue du Long In the Clichy district, adjacent to the main Western railroad, one bomb fell on an apartment house and penetrated the roof, making a hole the size of a man's body. The missile did not It dropped Into a sixth-floor flat and was arrested between the floor and the celling. Beyond the holes that were torn there was no damage, but the fifth-floor apartment was soaked with benzine which dripped from the bomb, All the occupants were safe BOMB FAILS TO EXPLODE. "In a nearby street, Rue des Dames, the single bomb dropped also failed to explode.

The damage was very light "A third fell In a stable In a cut de sac at Impasse Milord and set pile of straw afire, but the flames were quickly put out. "A fourth fell on the PL Ouen belt railroad station, but caused little damage. "One bomb was dropped on a house In 'Place Cormeillc, Levallers, a few yards outside the Farls fortifications, wounding one man. "Three projectilea were hurled en the suburb of Colombes, where 4 house in Rue BuUson was comr letely destroyed. The bomb cleaved IU way right througluthe building.

In one of the rooms was a new born baby. The Infant was sleeping In Its cradle. Strangely enough, although the fur. niture all about was smashed to atoms, the Laby was not even, scratched. "Two bombs hurled on Colomseej caused no damage.
