The place where the vessel struck is al
most directly opposite the torpedo sta
tion. When she reached the harbor the
tide was running out strongly and was
at about half ebb." The first warm
ing the officers had of the danger was q
slight sheck just forward of midship-.
Captain Glass at once ordered the port
anchor out. The hook held firmly and
the ship gradually swung broadside on
the beach. She was firm and could not
be moved so as to make the least head
way by meanns OF the anchor.
Tug Could Not Bulge Her.
An examination was made at once
and it was decided 20 send for a tug.
With the tide below, half ebb five faith
onls of water was found under the bow
and about the same depth under the
stern. As the tide fell the bow began
to appear above Jne water and last
night it was out OF water. All the ma
val officials who have seen the vessel
admit that her position is Il dangerous
one. The tug AqUdneck arrived
alongside the Texas within half an
hour after she struck. and quickly got
a line out. The warship, however.
proved too heavy fer the tug to handle

BICYCLES AS BAGGAGE.
What President Elliott Of the l. A. w.
Has TO Say.
New York Press


Sterling Elliott, president of the League
OF American Wheelman, has this 10 say
in reference to the efforts OF the league to
have railroads carry wheels a S baggage:
Are bicycles baggage? The League OF
American Wheelman would like to know.
We travel ON the railroad We pay the
price We are entitled TO take $50
pounds of baggage. What is baggage?
There is no statutory definition. 1t has
been generally understood and decided by
the courts that baggage is whatever u
traveller may take with him for bis per-
sonal use and convenience, or for the ulti-
mate purposes OF his journey.
"If the tourist may carry his canoe, sketch
ing materials, bedding etc, the oarsnan
his racing shell, the theatrical company its
scenery, the travelling man his sanlpletr trunks.
the carpenter his tool chest, why may not
the bicycle rider carry with him his wheel
for his personal convenience and for the
ultimate purposes of his journey
1--WE do not pause for an answer. There
is no answer but one. We must insist that
the bicycle should be carried and considered
as baggage, especially when the traveller
has no other belongings for which he asks
transportation. The question is whether
the bicycle, which weighs twenty odd
pounds, may be carried in place of the
trunk, which weighs 100. That is all
there is 10 it, and it must be answered by
the courts or the lawma kers.

New Place to Carry a Watch.

A pretty woman wore her watch-well,
where do you suppose? In her neck Who
but a pretty woman would think OF put
ting it in such a place? As the young
sters say, she was IA sumner" One of
her fellow passengers in the stage dared
to reveal in her countenance that she
thought a white satin neckband was n
queer place for a watch. The owner of
the tiny gold timepiece, which was not
larger than a medium-siZed button, was
of the brilliant brunette type, and I've
seen a mettlesome black pony's eyes flash
as hers did when she lifted her hand and
jerked out OF her soft satin stock her
watch. She tucked it back quarter of
an inch beyond the turn of her exquisite
chin, and the blue enameled fob chain.
with its tiny bah, dangled unobtrusively
just below the throat band OF the white
satin vest that completed her extremely
modish attire.-New York Herald.

Quick borrowing on Real Estate

BY virtue OF the Torrens land-transfer
system. the vote of the sovereign people of
Chicago, and an accommodating money
lender, Mrs. L. T. Hobbs was enabled to
break the record for Il rapid transaction in
borrowing money. Two weeksago, through
her attorneys, she filed her application for
Il certificate of land title under the new
system Thursday afternoon she received
her title at = O'Clock, and Il few minutes
after ! her attorney returned with repre-
sentative of c. T. Reynolds & Son, who had
trust deed on the property recorded as
security for an $4,000 loan. Under the
old system she could not have obtained the
money under two weeks and the cost
probably would have been doubled. The
transaction is the fastest on record, aud
entities Mrs. Hobbs to the championship for
rapid borrowing on real estate.-Chicago
