STOVE BOW
OF STR. new
SH0REHAM

AS the new Block Island steamer New
Shoreham was leaving the harbor yester-
day morning IN charge OF Captain l.. A.
Dodge she was in collision with the barge
Emma coal laden. one OF the three craft
that lashed side by side were being towed
to this city by tho tug Aries OF the
Thames Towing company and the Block
Island boat was so badly damaged that
she was obliged 10 put about and land her
passengers at the dock and then 80 on the
marine railway at East Providence.
According TO the story OF Captain
Dodge. Alvin crocker. his pilot was at the
wheel and after leaving Fields point no
ticed the tug and the three barges com
ing up from below Pomham light. The
captain states that ne feared there would
not be room for the steamer and the
three barges 10 pass the narrow place In
the channel near the light and he whistied
for tug TO keep over, as the tide was low
at that time.
The New Shoreham draws about 13 feet
OF water but requires about three addi-
tional feet OF water under her stern In
order TO steer well and after q time the
New Shorehams officers saw to their
surprise that the tow was not keeping
over at all and that they were to be
crowded.
Capt Dodge hastily rang 10 reverse the
engines and the sudden backing overcame
the steamers headway and caused me
crafts bow 10 veer TO the eastward com
ing into violent contact with the hawser
between the tug ana barges breaking II.
| The steamer then bore down on the
| barges and crashed into the Emma, which
| was the most westerly OF the three and
as the iron stem OF the heavily laden craft
| came In contact with the starboard bow
| OF the New Shoreham, there was sound
| OF rending and splintering wood as we'll as
| shock that startled the 36 passengers
| who were on the boat. All behaved very
we'll however and the officers were able
4 20 attend TO getting the boats apart ana
ascertaining the extent OF the damage
| II was found that a great hole had been
stove In the steamers side AFT OF the frst
| bulkhead and eight feet from the stem
that opened the interior OF the steamer to
| within five planks OF the water
The barge was not unscathed for the
planks were smashed away from the
| stem and a number OF splinters from the
New Shoreham were caught In between
the split timbers
The steamer will probably be laid OF
| the line several weeks as extensive re-
pairs will have TO be made at a cost OF
! probably 5000 not counting the loss OF
| time.
The tug and barge captains are not dis
| posed 10 assume the responsibility for
| the collision and state IL looked TO them
like poor steering on the part OF the
steamers men.

JESUS LEFT SUBJECT
OF DIVORCE OPEN, HE SAYS.

Chicago. June 13-In a sermon on
divorce the Rev. Pearse Pinch has de-
clared In Foresville Congregational
church that the attempts on the part OF
the stronger eccliastical bodies to whip
preachers into line will onl yresult In
fresh disaster TO them.
Instead OF settling the divorce Quss-
tion," the minister said, Jesus left the
whole subject open. Ministers are not
compelled to say that all persons d.
vorced for anything but the 'one cause
shall not marry again. They are free to
teach what obvious Justice and humanity
require and not harsh law thatt Jesus
never gave. II, for example. woman
refuses TO live with n man who makes
himself a drunken brute and gains d.
vorce from him. and later marrios a
decent man. no preacher Is bound 70
cenounce such marriage.
Divorce Is too light a punishment for
Offenders against the marriage tie. The
most serious offences ought to meet i'm
prisonment for life."

fore his death. The estate left by the
testator is I'm the nelghborhood OF 100000.
BY the will the bulk Of the estate went

Taxpayers Of East Providence Cut Down
Proposed Appropriations.

So sure were the taxpayfng voters OF
East Providence that the appropriations
called for and to be voted upon today
would be made without a murmur that
but n OF the 1900 voters OF this class at
tended the meeting that was called for
that purpose in the town hall at 10 o'clock
this morning
Among this number, which came largely
from the outlaying districts, there was a
disposition to cut down the amounts
called for. and as a result Riverside and
Rumford districts did not get tho $500
each they wanted for highways. Watche-
moket got $1,000 OF the $1,000 asked for
highways; 5000 for incidentals. and $500

DIAGRAM SHOWING DIFFERENT
CUTS

the cheap and expensive cuts on car
cass. We reproduce it here tor the
instruction of those readers that may
not be perfectly familiar with the To-
cation on the carcass of the different
cuts. The diagram shown here is that
of grade steer cut up by Chicago
butchers. The prices are retail. In
some markets in Chicago the prices
for the finest cuts are somewhat high
er than those shown here, but in those
same markets the cheap cuts sell at a
very low price. 1t not infrequently
happens that the markets that charge
for the poorer cuts less than they can
be bought for in the low-priced mar
kets. This Is because in the neighbor-
hoods in which the high-priced mar
kets are situated there is large de-
mand for fine meat, but almost none
for the cheaper cuts.
The lesson to be learned from the
diagram is that the animal must be
enlarged co those portions where the
prime cuts of rib, porterhouse and sir
loin are located. An animal must be
grown long bodied, so that as much
meat as possible will be included be-
tween the "chuck" ON the shoulder
and the rump at the hind end of the
animal. The object of intelligent
breeding is to reduce the quantity of
cheap meat and increase the quantity
of expensive meat. The legs are
shortened so that there may be little
"shank" and Shin" The neck also
must be made as short as possible, as
1t is worth pound for pound only
about one-seventh as much as the
porterhouse. and not half as much as
the round.

The ideas which are shown in the
bodice of this frock are so particularly
pretty that they would we'll be worth
utilizing for the making Of theater
blouse suitable for girls TO be worn with
quite plain skirt in silk or muslin.
Carrying out the idea suggested in our
sketch, however, the bodice is prettily
pleated and trimmed with lace insertion
in the same way as the skirt, the folds
being drawn around the figure in front
to form kind of bolero, and then
caught in the center with pale pink
rose. The shaped revers and the deep
waist-belt should be of satin, either in
the same pink as the rose or in a pale
shade Of turquoise blue or delicate
spring-leaf green. A few folds Of white
embroidered net or chiffon soften the
decolletage. While the sleeves, which
come only to the elbow, are of the
pleated silk and lace insertion, finished
with frills of lace. The long, straight
shoulder scarf, which Is such a pretty
feature of this costume, might be either
of embroidered muslin or some light
kind of lace.
AS far as the younger girls in the
nursery or schoolroom are concerned,
there can be no doubt that there is moth
ing prettier or more becoming for them
to wear all the year round that white,
although white clothes are certainly
an extravaganza. For Sunday best,
however, even the most economical Of
mothers may reasonably indulge in the
pleasure of dressing her small daughters
in white, and would therefore suggest
that the neat little coat and skirt herein
illustrated should be made in white or
cream soft serge, or possibly a fine
