Word was received yesterday by
Weather Observer j. ]. Gray, from the
signal station at Durants. N. c., that
the schooner ]. c. McNaughton, Cap
tain Garwood. New Bern. N. c., to
Atlantic City, N. J.. went ashore abou,
a mile from the signal office. and
half mile north of Durant's Life-Saving
Station at 2 O'clock Saturday morning.
1t will be remembered that the weather
was very thick with fog and rain. and
the vessel. which is we'll known in this
port, went high on the beach, where
she is likely to prove a total loss, ac-
cording to the telegrapher at Durant's.
The crew Of five were all saved by
the life savers through the use OF the
brooches buoy, and the cargo of lum-
Der, it is thought, can all be rescued.
According to the kilograms received.
1t might have been possible IL a tug
could have reached her soon after her
Bleaching to have hauled her off and
saved her, but evidently the sand was
making cradle for her, and the heavy
waves will break her up, as the wire
expressed the view that q tug would
get there too late to be of service.
The ]. c. McNoughton was built at
Milford, Delaware. in 1899. and is 1885

owned in Philadelphia.

when questioned. the captain admitted.
1t is said, that he had ignored the outer
quarantine. claiming he did not know
the season was opened yet. Instead of
going back to Quarantine at once, he
put into Lambert's Point pier and coal

beside making himself liable to further
detention and rigid inspection and
quarantine elsewhere. The captain an
pealed through u. S. Customs Collector
Banks to the Secretary of the Treasury
for remittance of the fine. 1t is said,
however. that this is his second Of
fence of this sort, and that Surgeon
Pettus is not likely to endorse his pc
tition for leniency. 1t is further stated
that the captain remarked that he
would never ener the Capes again with
out making inquiry as to whether there
was quarantine on or not.

BALTIMORE, Sept. 12.-Captain n. Mayo
Dyer, one Of the heroes OF Manila and
commander OF the cruiser Baltimore In the
memorable conflict of May l. 1898, was
honored by this city today. Residences and
business houses were gay with bunting, the
streets were jammed with people wearing
Dyer buttons" and oyer badges during
the entire day, and all the ships in the
harbor, regardless OF nationality, were
decked in his honor.
Soon after breakfast Captain Dyer was
taken in charge by a special committee and
entertained In various ways until 1870 p.
M, when he was escorted to the city hall
TO be welcomed by a reception committee
consisting OF about 200 OF Baltimores most
prominent people, headed by Mayor Master.
Meanwhile a procession, composed Of the
Fourth and Fifth regiments OF the Mary
land National guard. the Naval Reserve
corps. the Fifth Regiment Veteran corps,
two companies OF the United States artil-
lery regulars from Fort McHenry, tho
Maryland division Of the Grand Army OF
the Republic and many uniform civic and
semi-military organizations, paraded
through the principal streets OF the city,
passing the city hall, where Captain Dyer
reviewed the procession and where, upon
an immense platform, 5000 school children
we're so arranged as to form an immense
imitation Of the American flag.
When the parade had passed Mayor NAL
ster. on behalf OF the city Of Baltimore,
presented to Captain Dyer a set Of resolu-
lions commencing his conduct at Manila and
his record as an officer. after which he
handed him a magnificent sword, also the
gift OF the city council and the people OF
Baltimore. Captain Dyer accepted both in
a speech full of gratitude and expressions
Of the kindliest feeling toward his hosts
and entertainers.
The sword is said to be one OF the finest
weapons OF it's kind in this country. The
scabbard is finished in gold and the blade
is of Damascus steel, On the scabbard are
representations Of the coasts of the United
States and Maryland, the Battle and Wash
ington monuments and the cruiser Balti-
more. and on the sword hilt are symbolic
representations Of the arms of the naval
service. The scabbard has a service and
a fatigue belt.
After the presentation ceremonies the

number Of the members OF the reception
committee, repaired to Riverside park,
where a public reception was held.
A banquet in the evening at the Hotel

ton.

IVORY SUPPLY is PLENTIFUL.
siberian MammOths VIII Furnis'
Enough for Billiard Balls.

siberian Mammoths VIII Furnish
enough for billiard Balls.
Il do not apprehend a famine in tho
ivory market for many years to come
said a manufacturer OF billiard balls to a
New York Times man, for, although the
African jungles are not yielding as largely
as formerly. there are other fields OF supply
from which we can draw" I'.S
With the constantly decreasing supply
of ivory in Africa that highly priced sub
stance would soon command almost pro
hibitive prices were 1t not for the exist
ence in the frozen tundras Of Siberia of
a sufficient quantity of mammoth ivory
to accommodate the worlds demands for
generations to come. There in the soil are
found tons OF the ivory, the product
Of the mammoth (elephas primige-
nius), a species closely allied to the
elephant OF India, but protected from the
immense cold Of the Arctic regions by a
coat Of long, coarse hair grown over a fine
woolly underfur at the skin.
Thousands of these frozen carcasses are
found crowded and damned together
Col Jain spots. Science does not attempt to
explain how the giant animals were able
to live in a climate that preserves their
remains by freezing. The reason for the
great accumulations of mammoths in GER
tain places is also a mystery. The theory
that the bodies were carried there by
floods OF the rivers flowing from warmer
southern districts is untenable. Examina-
ton OF the stomachs OF some of the frozen
mammoths reveals the presence OF parts OF
pine needles and other vegetable sub
stances, from which 1t is inferred that the
tundras must have had a forest growth
during the mammoth epoch. The same in
dications are found In the stomachs OF the
two species OF rhinoceros which lived con
temporanoously with the mammoth in the
tundra5.
Similar concentrated accumulations OF
bones OF larger recent ANIMALS have been
found In certain districts OF east Africa.
This ivory, far from being a
recent discovery, was known to the an
clients and has been used for centuries as
the article of and manufacture.
The records show that as early as 1921
ivory OF this kind to the extent Of 5000
pounds was marketed In Yakutsk, and that
annual sales In that city from 1925 to 1881
, averaged over $4,000 pounds. In 1910 DR..
Middendorff. who visited the vast territory,
estimated tina the annual output of ST.
berlan ivory reached ITO, 900 pounds. repre-
senting at least 100 individual mammoths
Baron Nordenskjold estimated In 1875 that
fully 20 900 Siberian mammoths had con-
tributed their ivory to the worlds markets
since the conquest of Siberia.
