T;.e fire was terrific and in a few ! minutes the decks were covered with l corpses and awash with blood. One killed 2f0 men. The ship began to fill and sunk gradually by the stern. At o'clock in the evening she was completely submerged.

 The transport Sado is still afioat.
 but is badly damaged. She is being lowed into the nearest port. She sight ed the Russian ships thirty-ave miles ] west of Shiro Island. Their signals to stop were unheeded. so the Rus sians opened fire and signaled for those on board the Sado to leave the ship Upon that. the crew took to

Does a Hotel
 Help The Town
NOTHING ADVERTISES \ CITY so MUCH As A GOOD
 HOSTELRY.
The Wide Fame of the Copper Queen
 Hotel.

Does a real good. well managed hotel advertise a town? We rather think so you would too if you heard the many expressions of pleased sur prise that fall from the lips of tour ists and travelling men on their first . visit 10 Bisbee and The Copper Queen hotel
 The thing most frequently heard around a hotei off~e are kicks reg istered by guests for ineffciency of service or rather shortcomings, and when travellers. the hardest of all people to please, express pleasure at the manner in which they are housed and fed, it is almost certainty that such expressions are sincere. Nearly every traveller and tourest knows there is a Copper Queen hotel in Bisbee. They hear it along The line, but there are always pleasant surprises in store for the person who registers for the first time at this hotel.
 The guest finds himself amidst con- veniences and surroundings which he hardly expects 10 find anywhere SC far from either coast. in fact. the veriest crank of the road" finds il difficult here to find anything to kick about.
 Much of the credit for the populari- ty of this hotel is due to the efficient management of Mir. F.. O. Rouzer who is indefatigable in his efforts to make his guests truly comfortable And here is where the good adver- Using for the town comes Tn. The Knight of the grip is the greatest of all couriers of good or bad news and they all have a good word for the Copper Queen hotel and Manager Rouzer.

 With His Airship
WILL HURRY TO ST. LOUIS 10 ENTER MACHINE IN CON- TEST FOR THE $10O,OO0 PRIZE-PLANS THREE
 FLIGHTS WEEK OF
 JULY 4TH.

New York. Tuesday-M. Santos Dumont arrived tonight on the steam ship Savoie with his a:rship. the Sam tos-Dumont VII. He is on his way to St. Louis to compete for the s1oo.- 900 prize which has been offered by the exposition authorities.
 T am full of hope as to the re- suit of the contest" said Nj. Santos Dumnt. as heoeteaSvaims shrdluu Dumont. as the Savoie steamed up the bay. but I do not wish to be thought confident of taking the prize.
 T have a good airship-the best have been able to devise so far. I am glad to learn that there are four oth- CT contestants. This is bound to stimulate interest, and ought to make a good race. l hope the best man wins.
 T tried my No. ', three times in Paris before leaving. and everything worked wei under test. The airship was built two years ago. but the motor is new-in fact. waiting for il to be constructed delayed me in getting away from Paris.
 Its nominal horsepower is forty. but gives from fifty to sixty. Almost | everything about the car is steel. Aluminium is bad. there being the same difference between cork and wood.
 AS to the date of my flight. that de-
 pends on how quickly the express company can get teh airship to St. Louis I shall start of myself tomor-
 row. and then it will take seven days to put the No together after it has l reached its destination. I wrote from
 Paris asking David R. Francis. Presi- dent of the exposition. and my lawyer. Charles Hitchcock Sherrill. to get the
 express company 10 arrange for ex- pedition.
 | ."The principal difference between
 the No. and the No. 6. with which I | circled the EiTei Tower. is that the
 machine have with me is bigger, ! the bow and the other at the stern,
 and much more powerful engine
 The galloon. which is fifty-six yards long. is rather more elongated than
 in the older machine.
