ENGLAND HARD ON
DESTROYERS OF F*OD
So many precautions have
been taken by the British gov
ernment to conserve its food sup
ply that persons caught wasting
food are severely dealt with. A
striking example of the severe
punishment meted out to care
less persons was given recently
in London when a sailor was
sent to prison for five years for
setting fire to a quantity of bar
ley worth $400.
"This is not the time," said the
court in passing sentence, "when
we can stand the loss of stocks
of food."
6,000 HONOR GUARD GIRLS
OFFER FIRST AIO TO HOMES
Will Give Services to President if
War Comes—To Take Places
of Men Who Join Colors.
Sis thousand girls, from fourteen to
thirty years old, are ready to aid If
■war comes. Miss Theodora Booth,
president of the Girls' National Ilonor
guard, has offered the services of all
members to President Wilson.
Til.? honor guard Is strictly a first
nld body. There are three training
divisions In first aid—to the wounded,
to families and general utility.
Members of the organization must
be proficient In at least one of the fol
lowing: rialn cooking, care of chil
dren. letter writing and reading, driv
ing automobiles, riding, swimming and
shooting, management of motor and
sail boats, telegraphy and wireless
codes and knowledge of geographical
locations of states, principal cities,
forts and hospitals.
"Our Idea Is not to conflict with oth
er women's organizations, but rather
to supplement their work." said Miss
Booth recently. "If the men are called
to defend our colors their wives will
have to be the business heads of the
home, which will make It hard, partic
ularly for the women with children.
Our girls, however, will be able to step
into the homes of women who have
to go out to work and care for their
children.
"Nearly every state in the Union is
represented In our movement, and we
have the Indorsement of forty-five gov
ernors. Any girl with a willingness to
help her country can join our ranks.
"We propose to utilize the schools
throughout the country as evening
classrooms for instruction in the va
rious branches of service, and we are
now classifying the girls for useful oc
cupations iu which they may serve
during distress from any calamity.
Also, it Is our intention to ask congress
for $230,000 for forming and maintain
ing training camps for girls."
The national advlseis of the honor
guard are General Wood, Balllngton
Booth, Rear Admiral Nathaniel R. Ush
er and General O'ltyan of New York.
GERMAN PRICE ON HIS HEAD.
Captain Miller, Who Sank a U Boat, j
Sails For War Zono Again.
Smiling and shouting a cheery good
by to several friends on the pier, Cap
tain William Miller, master of the
British steamship Clan Robertson, on
whose bead the German admiralty has
set a reward of $20,000, stood on the
bridge of his vessel the other day as
she was being towed out ready to put
to sea from Baltimore. Captain Mil
ler, as master of the steamship Clan
MacFayden, gave orders which result
ed in the sinking of a German subma
rine and the loss of all on board In
the Bay of Biscay about a year ago.
For this feat he received a prize of
$5,000.
No sooner had the full facts of the
affair been mnde public than the Ger
man admiralty notified all its subma
rine commanders that §20,000 would
be paid to the niau who captured Cap- I
tain Miller.
About a year ago the Clan MacFay
den stopped at Gibraltar to take aboard
a guu and two gunners. A short time
afterward a submarine fired r. solid
shot across the bows of the freighter,
the signal to heave to. Captain Miller
ordered full speed ahead and told the
gunners to stand by their gun. A sec
ond shot from the underwater boat
tore away two lifeboats, another de
molished the funnel and deck house,
and another put a hole in the bow of
the ship.
All tills time the gun on the after
deck was being fired, but no hits were
scored. The submarine was rapidly
overtaking the Clan MacFayden when
a shot from the freighter struck her
amidships. The U boat san>, and the
MacFayden continued on her voyage.
Captain Miller was then placed In
command of the Clan Robertson. On
his present voyage he will again face
the perils of the submarine zone.
A Foggy Year.
The fiscal year 1910 was a foggy one,
according to the United States bureau
of lighthouses records, with a greater
amount of fog than during the preced
ing year, except in the lake districts.
The foggiest place was at San Francis
co light vessel, California, with fog or
thick weather for 2,221 hours—approx
imately 25 per cent of the time. On
the Atlantic coast the greatest amount
of fog was at Egg Rock, Maine, where
the foggy hours numbered 2,034—about
k 23 per cent of the whole year.
