until February 3 when, In addition to having most
OF her Hfeboats carried away. she lost her rudder,
and becoming helpless began to ship heavy seas.
Conditions became so serious that 1t was decided
TO abandon the vessel and In response TO signals OF
distress the British steamer Weehawken bound for
GLASGOW bore down tho distressed ship on

great difficulty rescued by the Weehawken and
landed at Ponta Deleada February j. II was
then reported that the Weehawken lost sight Of the
bulgaria I'm the darkness and It was assumed that
the Hamburg American liner had foundered. This
belief was strengthened by the statements OF four

and vari-colored ribbon from his mouth.
This is at first carelessly dropped on the
floor of the stage. Later it is again, still
with apparent carelessness lifted and as
carelessly deposited near the center of

full of dust, another outbreathing Of
flame and smoke, the cud this time be-
ing so thoughtlessly dropped that it sets
fire to the bunch of ribbon. That bursts
into flame, and then there is a wonderful
swapping of 1irecrackers, into which the
harmless ribbon has seemingly been con-
verted. AS a finale to the act there is pro-

GROWING achievement of the act in the
eyes of the mystided crowd, and Ching
bows himself from the stage to an out
burst Of applause that is genuine, and
shows that the crowd delights to be hum
plugged when 1t is cleverly done.
