Miss Ellen Stone, the American
missionary who was captured by
brigands several years ago, will open
a female college at Monastir, which
will be conducted on American ideas.
Rhodes scholars at Oxford univer-
sity, England, have come to be
known as "Rhodesters." This is not
in any way term of reproach, for SO
far the young men have been con-
spicuously successful both intellec-

A remarkably successful attempt is
making in Germany to instill in the
public school children love for plant
culture. Last year gardening asso-
citation inaugurated system by
which flowers and plants in pots were

end of the summer school term this
year, were offered to such as should
plants. In a single town, Wuerzburg,

Steamer Goes
DOWN IN Gale
NORWEGIAN VESSEL rs FOUN-
DERED OFF THE COAST
OF NOVA SCOTIA.
Entire Crew May Have Been Lost.
The Vessel Sinks With All Hands
Who have No Chance to Escape
The Boat Strikes on Ledge.

Clarks Harbor, N. S., Nov. 21.-The
Norwegian steamer Turbin, with her
captain and crew of about sixteen men,
is thought to have foundered in ter
rife gale which swept over Nova Scotia
last Friday
The coasting steamer Edna r. which
arrived here yesterday from Mud
Island, brought news that on Friday
about p IN. a large steamer, sup
posed to be the Turbin, struck Black
Rock ledge off the south coast of the
province, backed off in few minutes
and then disappeared
Persons on the island who saw the
steamer strike on the ledge were a
considerable distance away, and owing
to the tremendous sea running it was
impossible to launch boat.
No persons could be discerned
aboard the craft and SO quickly did
the steamer go down that no oppor-
tunity was given the crew to fight for
their lives. No boat could have lived
an instant in the sea that was rum
ming. While the craft hung on the
rocks, the seas made a clean breach
over her.
Suddenly giant comber lifted her
from her resting place and the next
instant she took the fatal plunge, car
rying, it is believed all down with her.
The people of the island have no
means of communicating with the
main land until steamer calls there,
or the weather is sufficiently moderate
to permit them to launch their own
boats and in consequence of the iso-
lated position the first news of the
wreck only reached here yesterday.
The Tu-'bin was bound from sydney
with cargo of coal for Yarmouth.
She was in command of Capt. Knud-
and had a crew of sixteen or eighteen,
all Norwegians. The steamer was
last reported as passing Port Mulgrave,
N. S., on Tuesday night.
The Turbin was single screw steel
steamer of 724 tons gross. She was
built at Hoboken, Belgium, in 1902.
She was owned by the Al1tieselskabet
Turbin. P. A. Green is managing
owner. The vessel hailed from SAM
defiord. Norway.

KILLED IN WRECK.
Conductor Smiley and Wife are Kill
ed In Collision on the 500
Road Near Detroit.

Detroit, Mimi, Nov. 21.-A rear-end
collision of two freight trains at the
.'ailroad crossing half mile north of
here about noon Sunday resulted in
a tragedy which had Mortified the city.
A special 500 freight was run into
by regular train which was following
it. The accident occurred at curve.
In the caboose of the extra freight was
Conductor G. w. Smiley of Glenwood
and his wife and 9-year-old daughter
Mabel, who were simply making Sun
day trip on the freight in order to
spend the day with the husband and
father.
The engine of the regular freight
crashed into the rear of the extra
freight with great force and so sud-
denly that the occupants of the ca
boose had absolutely no chance to es-
cape.
The light car was smashed to pieces.
Conductor Smiley was injured so
badly that he died within few MIN
utes, and to add to the horror of the
wreck the clboose took fire from the
engine which had smashed into it and
the body of the unfortunate conductor
was burned in the wreckage.
Mrs. Smiley was killed instantly, but
her body was thrown to one side and
escaped the flames which devC lred her
husband.
