France Flagrantly

Immense quantities of coal and other

enormous sums for carrying the stores

Instead of leaving, the Russians con-

average three transports arrived daily

VINEYARD HAVEN. Mass. May s.
The name of the woman who lost her
life in the sinking of the Joy Line
steamer Aransas, one and one-han
miles southeast of Pollock Rip shoals
yesterday as the result of a collision
with a barge, was ascertained today.
She is Miss Annie Field. of Boston.
Efforts to find her body are being
made today. Miss Field was seen on
the ladder TO the tug Patience which
went to the rescue of the passengers
of Aransas and in the darkness it is
not known whether she lost her balance
and fell into the water, or whether fear
that she would fall caused her to so
upon the deck again. Mate Croker
says he helped her over the side. An
instant later amid the greatest con-
fusion, the steamer went TO the bottom.
Scenes of excitement followed the
collision. Passengers were thrown from
their berths by the shock. and the
shouting of orders and the calls of
men from all parts of the ship as they
hurried to execute the orders to man
the boats. told the awakened passen-
gers that they were to prepare for the
worst. In an instant the stairways lead
ing to the deck were filed by pas
senrers who We're quickly gathered to
the port side of the ship, where boats
were being manned and made ready.
The discipline of the Grew was excel
lent.
Many Saved Clothing.
Many of the passengers were partly
dressed, and some had their clothing III
their arms. Others had some of their
baggage, and others We're in Their night
clothes. Most of them, however, in the
flight from their staterooms had gath

Engineer q. N. Miller Makes
Report.

Last Monday evening about
100 citizens gathered at the court
house to hear the report OF En-
|gineer G. N. Miller, who had
Just completed a survey of the
proposed water route from Rock
Creek to this city, on the proba-
BILE cost of the construction of
said system.
The meeting was called to or
der by B. w. Johnson, president
lof the Citizens League. Mr..
Miller then read his report and
had good attention while so do
ling. After he concluded many
Questions were asked him.
| According to Mr.. Miller's re-
|port Rock Creek should be tap
lped within a couple of miles of
Its source, thus making the main
lpipe line fraction more than 16
miles long-that is to the city
limits. There is figured in dis.
Itribution within the city limits
something in excess of 13 miles
of pipe. The place of the pro-
posed intake is o8o feet above
the sea level giving a fall suff-
lcient to carry water to this city
within FIVE hours. The city
mains are figured at q and {
inches in size and are very exten-
sively distributed throughout the
city. There is provision for &c
hydrants equally distributed.
It is estimated that I, 900. ooe
!, gallons of water may be carried
to this city every "a hours ane
the pressure is supposed to bs
j. about 90 pounds per square inch
A reservoir sufficient to hole
|25o, 900 gallons is figured for 10
cation on Baldy Butte. This i.
) supposed to be constructed of con
: crete and at an elevation 24o fee
]. above the city. This reservoir
will be about a1z miles from Cor
, wallis.

were found who were willing to admit
and have it go on record that they had

while $40 are non-attendants OF these
last about one-fourth, or say 100, are
too young TO attend Sunday school,
and the remaining 270 do not attend, Il
is to be supp;s ed, because Of the lax
ity and Indifference OF the parents as
to the religious training CT their chill
dren, for no valid excuse was given.
except in one instance where the moth
er stated she could not send her chill
dren on account Of being too poor TO
dress them properly.
This large number OF children who
are known TO be not connected with
any Sunday school is increased from
the fact that many Of those reported
70 their parents as going to Sunday
school, are not seen in the schools
except On special occasions, and often
not at all.
