STEAMER WRECKED
OFF ST. MALO, ON NORTH COAST
OF FRANCE.
1t Is Believed That More Than 100 of
Her Passengers and Crew Were
Drowned-Steamer Had Lost Her
Course During Snow Storm and
Went on the Rocks.

London, Nov. 20.-The Southwest
ern railways cross channel steamer
Hilda was wrecked off st. Malo. on
the north coast of France, and it is
believed that 100 or more or her pas
sengers and crew were drowned.
The Hilda left Southampton Friday
night for st. Malo, with considerably
more than 100 souls on board. Her
passage was greatly delayed by a fog
in the channel, and when nearing St.
Malo she ran into a severe snowstorm,
apparently missed her course and
foundered on the rocks off Jardin
lighthouse, three miles from st. Malo.
The company's steamer Ada, out
ward from st. Malo. rescued five of
the passengers and one of the crew.
These are now on the way to South
ampton. There is an unconfrmed re-
port that 70 had been saved.
Passengers All Frenchmen.
The crew numbered 26, and there
were about 100 passengers, all French
men, the majority being onion dealers
from st. Brieuc and neighborhood.
A telegram from st. Severan, ad-
joining the town of St. Malo. gives
the few particulars yet obtainable.
The Hilda was near St. Malo Saturday
morning. She struck the rocks at
o'clock Sunday morning in the road
stead off the island of Cezambre, hav-
ing missed the tide owing to bad wea-
Their and fog.
The majority of the crew and pas
sengers were asleep at the time. Two
boats were lowered, one of which, con-
tanning five men. arrived at st. Sew
eran. The second boat was picked up
empty at st. Cast, where 13 bodies
were washed ashore. The top of the
Hilda's funnel and the top of her
mast were visible at low tide, accord
ing to advices from st. Severan.
The Hilda was built at Glasgow in
1co2 and registered S48 tons. She
was a screw steamer of iron construc-
ton and was 235 feet in length.
Mad Scramble of Passengers.
The shock as she struck awakened
the passengers, who threw themselves
from their berths and rushed on deck
half clad. A mad scramble was made
for the boats, but long before the
frozen ropes could be worked clear
the vessel had broken in pieces and
the shrieks of the drowning were be-
ing carried shoreward by the wind.
Captain Alexander was on the
bridge at the time the vessel sank be-
meath the waves and his voice could
be heard above the shrieking of the
winds ordering the crew to their sta
tons to launch the boats"
A later report says that 1913 persons
lost their lives in the wreck.

Saturday Football Games.

Perhaps the biggest football score
piled up this season was by Notre

80 TO 0. in the game with Creighton.

Wisconsin on Ferry field, IL to 0, scor-

The Dis.ffbution of Radlum.


 For many physicists speculation as to the the amount and distribution Of radioactive material on the eai tn is a most attractive exercise. One of the most recent contrihu- tions to the discussion Is by Prof. A. S. Eve. and contains somo interesting and surpris- ing items He first found how much ra- dium was required to ionize a given quanti- ty of atr and with this as basis he com puted that for ionIzing the earth's atmos- phere at the same rate one-half gramme of radium would b4 required for each cubic kiIometer. This, he assumed. would be the average ionizatIon value for the world. and for layer of atmosphere a kilometer Cor thres-fifths of a mile) thick there would be needed some coo tonl of radium bromide evenly distributed. and. consequently but a few meters in thickness.
 This conclusion considers the hypothesis that the increase of temperature towards the interior of the earth Is due 10 the ra- alum, and assumes that the material is uni formIy distributed. The result reached Is interesting in that 1t indicates greater de- posits of radioactive material than had hith- crt been supposed. and with such quantities the possibility tha: it's effect may have an important bearing on the activities of the organic world.
