HOW AMERICAN GUN CREW
OVERLOOKED FIRST CHANCE
Dirty Little Ship Was Planting
Barrels of "Fish" In Course
Of United States Liner.
Just ai the American liner St Louis
was entering the last day's Journey
and beginning again her burst* of
speed through the zone off Nantucket
on tlie return voyage of an armed
American ship to Europe one ot the
stokers dropped out entirely. He tried
to stand the pace and protested against
giving up, but they pulled him away
from the furnaces, and a few hours
later he died. And a few hours after
that, at Easter Sunday noon, there
were a few mumbled words over a
black box and an American flag, and
then a splash in the sea.
"We have threaded the twisted paths
of death, and here we are," said Cap
tain Hartley In telling of the trip.
Then he told of the disappointment of
the naval gun crews in not having a
chance to try American guns on Ger
man steel.
"Three hours in the submarine zone
and no fritzles yet," sold one blue
Jacket disgustedly as the ship neared
the Irish coast.
The gunner missed a chance at the
finest target of the eighteen day voy
age the following morning when a
dirty little iron steamer, with rust all
over her disreputable sides and a tat
tered and soiled Norwegian Sag at her
taflrall, a picture of commercial Inno
cence, sailed diagonally across the
course of the St. Louis us the armed
American liner moved up to the en
trance of the Mersey.
Inside this Innocent utue smacK equ
on her greasy decks were barrels of
"fish" that the captain said were to be
taken to Cardiff. But the captain was
planting his "fish" In the muddy wa
ters ot the Mersey, where no trawlers
or mine sweepers or cargo ships could
see them. Half an hour after the St
Louis bad passed up the channel a
trawler was blown up by one of 100
mines strewn In the four square miles
by the rusty tramp, and half on hour
after that a 3,000 ton cargo boat, the
Kelvinhead, struck another one of the
Norwegian "flsh" and went down.
When the St. Louis reached the bar
of the Mersey she found that her pilot
had failed to appear to take the ship
into the river, and the liner bad to
steam up and down in this mined re
gion for seven hours while waiting for
the tide to rise so that she could jet
over the bar. A few hoars later Brit
ish trawlers and mine sweepers picked
up eighty-two mines in the waters
where she had been taking her morn
lny cruise.
FORTUNE TO POLICEMAN.
Brooklyn Patrolman Goto to California
For Logaoy.
New York.—A nineteen days' leave
of absence was granted by Police Com
missioner Woods to Patroiman James
F. Gaffney of the Bedford avenue po
lice station, Williamsburg. The police
man started for the Paciflc coast to
claim a fortune left to him by an aunt
Gaffney, who is thirty-five years old
married and lives at 124 Oak 6treefc,
has been a dozen yea) s on the force.
The inheritance rauges all the way
from 550,000 to 5100.000, and the first
knowledge the poliietnan had of bis
good fof^tme was when he received a
letter trom a San Francisco attorney.
TO BAR TOWN CLOCK.
Hotel Keeper Seek* Injunction Against
» City Timepiece. .
Wichita, Kan.—S. J. Smalley, pro
prietor of the Coronado hotel, across
the street from the city hall, employed
a lawyer to obtain an injunction Jo
prevent Mayor Bentley and the com
missioners from installing a clock in
the city hall tower.
For years citizens have petitioned
administrations to beautify the un
sightly boarded up tower with a clock,
and the Bentley administration let a
contract for a $1,500 clock. Smalley al
leges that the striking of the clock will
wake up his guests every hour at night

WENT TWO MILES ALONE
WITH HIS LEG BROKEN
Rancher Injured by Fall Shows Game
neaa Getting to Neighbor's Cabin.
Laramie, Wyo.—An Idea of the game
ness of some of Wyoming's ranchers
was gained recently with the arrival In
Laramie of Bob Holeombe, a rancher
In the Sand creek country, who went
eighteen hours with a broken leg and
no medical aid.
He crawled one mile on his hands
and knees with a broken leg dragging
after him. He made another mile on
improvised crutches made out of a one
inch plank and then put on his own
: splints with a broken up cracker box
and five empty flour sacks.
Holeombe was working a bunch of
cattle about four miles from his ranch
and two miles from the nearest house.
The horse ho was riding slipped and
fell on Holcoinbe's right leg. It snapped
between the knee and ankle.
Knowing there was no help within
two miles, the gameness of the man
asserted itself. Suffering excruciating
pain, he crawled on his hands and
knees for a mile, where he had noticed
a one Inch plank. With the aid of a
knife he broke this plank lengthwise
aad, putting ono piece under each arm,
used them as crutches and traveled a
mile to the cabin of a friend.
Here he broke up a cracker box and
with his knife whittled out some rough
splints. With the aid of five flour sacks
he bound on the splints. The friend
than telephoned to a neighbor for a car
and brought the injured man to the city.
8eoret of the Game.
In Owen Johnson's "Making Money"
one of the characters, a stock manip
ulator, explains his secret to his pro
tege Bojo in few words, "The secret
of the game, any game, is to think the
way the other man thinks and then
think two Jumps ahead of him." His
golden rule In finance found expres
sion in the precept, "If you want a se
cret kept, keep It yourself."
The Polar Regions.
It is estimated that there are 300,000
inhabitants of the polar regions, one
.person to each ten miles.
DOG SAVES GIRL'S LIFE.
Animal Drags Her From River to a
Sanitarium.
Green Bay, Wis.—Madeline Denny,
aged ten, of Little. Rapids, owes her
life to the courage and faithfulness of
Brewster, a bulldog owned by Miss
Helen Seheller, superintendent of the
Brown county tuberculosis sanitarium.
Madeline was crossing Fox river when
she fell through a hole In the ice.
"X clung on to the edge and scream
ed," she said. "Brewster was standing
on the bauk. He ran to me, grabbed
my sleeve and pulled until I was able
to extricate myself. Then be dragged
me by the collar to the sanitarium
grounds."
The grounds are about 200 yards
from the river.
Brewster will be given a new collar,
properly inscribed, just like heroic hu
mans get Carnegie nwlnig
