where she lay for hours entirely at the
mercy Of the sea and almost entirely
submerged by the mountainous waves
that swept over her. To add to the
terrible predicament she was in her
cargo of coal shifted.
The whole crew was ordered below
and for twenty four hours worked with
might and main to try TO readjust her
cargo and finally succeeded in getting
her into shape so that she was man
geable. The great waves that struck
her battered in the forecastle and
washed away all the stock of beef and
provisions stored there. The carpen-
ter, cook and steward had all their be-
longings washed overheard. At times
while the storm was at its height there
seemed TO be at least a hundred tons
of water on the deck
When the storm had somewhat abat-
ed and the ship had righted it was
found that the rudder head had sprung
and it became necessary to rig a jury
rudder. Consequently the spanker
boom was taken down and lashed
across the poop deck from rail to rail
and with the aid of relieving tackle the
captain was able to guide her on her
course In the meantime from the ter

The storm beaten ship William H.
Macy came into port yesterday. Her
appearance more than verified the re-
ports that the steamship City of Puebla
had brought in concerning her. She
had a heavy list to starbOard and her
whole appearance showed the effects
of the terrific encounters with the seas
she had suffered. She was a woeful
looking spectacle. How she weathered
the gale and lived through the fury of
the storm that threw her on her beam
ends is a miracle to both officers and
crew. At any rate, she has managed
to get into port, and a more battered
looking object has rarely crossed in
over the bar She left this port on
January 80, bound north for Lady
smith. On the second day out she en-
cOuntered a storm that shook her up
so hard that the main yard came
tumbling down with great crash. The
balance Of the voyage north was a sec
cession Of gales and storms. On the
return trip from oyster Bay, from
which port she sailed on March l, the
voyage was uneventful until March 10,
when she ran into terrific gale, which
came upon her without any warning
and carried away her sails, her main
mizzen topsail and stay sails. The seas

MOURNS LOSS
OF SAILORS
England Is Sorrowful Over
Fate of the Men Who Died
in the Submarine Boat
VESSEL is NOT RAISED
Captain of the Berwick Cas-
tie Says His Ship Did Not
Strike the Little Craft

PORTSMOUTH, March 20.-Attempts
were made to-day without success to
raise the British submarine boat No. l
A, which was run down by the Donald
Currie line steamer Berwick Castle Fri
day afternoon. The principal damage
appears to have been done to the con-
ming tower. which shows the marks OF
the collision. The hull of the vessel ap-
pears to be intact.
1t has been ascertained that the sub
marines hull was also pierced. The
boat will be salvaged first by repairing
and then filing it with compressed air,
the position in which she lies and the
currents having compelled a suspension
of the attempts to lift her. The divers
report that 1t is impossible to see inside
the submarine. The opinion is that the
boat filled with water Immediately.
The disaster to the No. 1 A has Gre
ated a most painful impression in all
classes. Queen Alexandra, the Duke OF
Connaught and the chiefs of the Ad-
miralty have sent messages OF sympa-
thy to the relatives of the victims. Ad-
miral Fisher, in an official signal to the
fleet expressing sorrow, says:
Practically our gallant comrades
died in action. Their lives were not
thrown away, If we consider their
splendid example Of cheerful and en-
thusiastic performance of duty, in
volving all the risks of war"
HAMBURG, March 20.-The Don
aid Currie line steamship Berwick
Castle, which ran down the British
submarine boat No. l A, near Ports
mouth. Friday afternoon, arrived here
to-day undamaged. The officers OF the
vessel declined to give any information
concerning the matter, pending an Of
fetal statement.
LONDON, March 21.-The Daily
Nails Hamburg correspondent says
that the captain Of the Berwick Castle
is persistent in the assertion that Ii is
impossible that his ship could have
collided with the submarine boat No.
1 A, as the shock would have been
much more violent. He says he felt
only two very slight shocks and that
the atmosphere was clear and that he
saw no submarine boat.

HEMINGFORD, Nebr., March 20
Disastrous prairie fires have swept

The Collar For the
 Tailor ShirWaist.

Yale students, to whom young girls and men look for the introduction of smart styles. have set a fashion in col- lars that Is making great headway in the East. and will soon be seen in other parts of the country where college girls and boys are to be found. The collars are turnovers, but the fronts open very low and come down quite far in long points. while at the back they are mod erately high. At first one of these col lars gives one a sort of decollete feel Ing. but 1t Is immensely comfortable for warm weather. A broad. four-in- hand tie is the proper thing to wear with such neckwear, and this should be tied in the very latest fashion--that Is, with a broad semiloose knot. The day of the small tie Is past. and from that extreme the fashionable youth has gone to the other.
 There is a story told of a very par ticular and stylish young actor of New York. who played short engagement In New Haven with one of our best Broadway companies, and before the opening night he took little tour of the campus. and was struck at once with the smart neckwear of the students. Of course, it would never do for him to ap- pear that night In an ordinary collar and tie, so a diligent search through the college haberdasheries was made. with the result that the proper neck wear was finally purchased and the youthful actor relieved in his mind. It would be a blot on the reputation of New York to have one of their repre- sentative actors behind the fashion in- stituted by college men

BY wALDoN FAwcETT.

No phase of American life has experi- enced during recent years a more rapid development than the following of coun- try life for it's own sake. For years the whole tendency of large proportion of the rural population was cityward. and there was everywhere manifest an in clination to disposb of country property and migrate to the vicinity of the great urban communities; but lately reac- tion-or. perhaps. 1t might better be termed a compensating infiuence-has been manifest. and city dwellers who have the means are seeking the country as place of residence during at least : large portion of the year. re tremen- dous growth in the popularity of suburb an life-often enjoyed under conditions which make it practically country exist ence-but constitutes another exemplih- cation of the increasing appreciation of Natures offerings of rnatchless settings for artistic habitations
 The more pretentious country seat of the present day is created under the most suspicious conditions.

This new relation ship has been highly beneficial in way for whereas the old-fashioned farmer was wont to devote the most at tractive portion of his farm to a pas- ture for his cattle or site for his barn the city-bred lover of country life mani- fests no scruples against selecting for his nome the most attractive location on the estate-a site that commands all the pleasing vistas and fine views avail able at any one point
 Although late years have witnessed the erection of many magnificent country houses in the territory contiguous to Chicago and in California, 1t must be confessed that the best exemplification of the tenets of the new era of country seats is found in the eastern portion of the country. This is only natural. in view of the fact that along the Atlantic seaboard are number of country seats in the creation Of each of which a for tune has been expended.

great numbers along the Hudson. in Westchester county. on Long Island and on the northern shore of Long Island Sound. Within short distances of Bos- ton and Philadelphia are many magnih- cent country houses, and still other cen ters of the new country life are found in the Berkshire Hills. near Lakewood, N. J., and in the country surrounding the national capital. The present in- terest in country life has resulted in revival of interest in picturesque sec- tions of the country long neglected. Thus we find lovers of the beautiful eagerly purchasing for use as country seats the old manor houses of Virginia. whereas in tl7e New England States tenants are readily being found for the abandoned farms.'' the usefulness of which was supposed to have been ex- hausted years ago.
 It has been truly said that architec- turally. the best country houses in America are an independent growth and designed. first of all to contribute to the comfort and enjoyment of the occu- pants. and likewise has there been no adherance to slayish precedent In the selection of the material of which they are constructed. Indeed, practically every form of construction adopted in the construction of city residences may now be found In country habitations. Be it said to the credit of the builders of the new country houses. however. that they have in almost every Instance striven for character and individuality of design, and this same Is true Of country residents who have remodeled struct,- already in existence.
 From many standpoints there is naught to compare with a stone house as a place of abode in the country. but It's cost constitutes an obstacle in many instances. Ranking next to the stone structure in durability is that of brick. and worthy of mention for similar qual- ihcatons Is the well constructed stucco house. However. majority of the more pretentious country houses in America are frame structures. and there has been a most extensive introduction of the best class of shingle work It may be noted in passing also hat log and other rustic construction Is no longer confined to woodland homes.
 The present day tendency Is to give the country seat an expansive setting. There are in America country homes. each in It's way of distinctive beauty. occupying estates ranging in extent all the way from a few acres to several
