deleting records in a db

[droidus]

i am trying to delete all records locally on my db. here is my code:

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.Statement;

public class DeleteAllDBRecords {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		try {
	
			Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
			String dataSourceName = "first test";
			String dbUrl = "jdbc:odbc:" + dataSourceName;
			Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(dbUrl, "", "");
			Statement s = con.createStatement();

			s.execute("DELETE * FROM members");
	
			s.close();
			con.close();
	
		} catch (Exception e) {
			System.out.println(e);
		}
	}
}

I get this error: java.sql.SQLException: [MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver][mysqld-5.5.17]You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '* FROM members' at line 1

See the following link for the proper syntax of an SQL delete statement
SQL DELETE Statement
Note the lack of a wildcard in the examples
