WRECK OF THE ITALIA.
DETAILS OF THE TERRIBLE DISASTER.
Seventy persons Still Missing-OnIy Eight
Passengers Saved-An Heroic Purser--
The Way the Captain Accounts
for the Wreck.

LIMA. June 26-The steamship "Tuno"
which arrived Wednesday with siXty-thlee
survivors from the wreck of the steamer
Italia states that there are seventy per
sons missing, and, as far as known, only
eight passengers were saved while only
one of the crew was lost. The greatest
confusion ensued Immediately after the
vessel struck. The shock strained the
vessel so that the doors of the cabins could
not be opened, thus impris ming the pas
sengers. The captain was not ON deck
at the time of the accident, which was due
to Il wrong order given by the third officer.
The latter has since committed suicide
Great credit Is bestowed on the heroic eff
forts of the purser to save the passengers,
he, with II boat, being finally swamped
when the steamer sank. The passengers
who escaped to land underwent fearful
suffering before they reached an estate
where succOr was promptly afforded.
The FL Commerce. to-day publishes Il
letter from Captain Martes of the ill.tated
Italia. He accounts for the wreck by the
current which set them in toward the land
and says If the officer on watch, who is
supposed to have committed suicide, had
lived more light could have been thrown
on the course of the disaster Some OF
those saved were torty-nine hours i'll open
boats and were eventually rescued by
fishermen One boat was sucked down by
the sinking ship and all occupants We're
drowned.

Cooked Food for Fowls.
Iowa Homestead.

Cooked food of any kind is much easier TO
digest than it is in a raw state, and i; is
claimed by chemists that the nutritious vaule
of some kinds of food is increased by cook
ing. 1t has been experimental with swine
and cattle over and over again, and with ex-
cellent results, for any method of sottening
grain, either by cooking 1t or by ferments-
ton, turns the starch into sugar, which is
much easier digested.
1t is very beneficial for the fowls, even i.
the food Is simply steamed and fed to them
warm. Do not feed cooked food entirely,
for it is liable to cause diarrnea or something
of that nature, which may develop into some
thing worse.
The fowls ere very fond of warm morning
feed, especially during the cold weather o!
winter. aud il red pepper, chopped onions or
'hot stuff" of any kind be mixed occasional.
ly with their food, it will greatly help in
keeping them healthy and active, which is
so hard to accomplish in the winter; as a re.
suit the hens will lay better.
