ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Nov. G.
The star heroine of the frightful
electric train disasted here in
which 60 lives were lost Is Mrs. H.
Il. Mcdonald, wealthy Philadel-
phia woman.
Mrs. Mcdonald not only saved
herself from drowning in a sub
merged car, but by the most re-
markable presence of mind, cour-
age and skill, saved the lives of
five othehrs.
She told her story in detail as
follows:

AT TARGET PRACTICE
COMPANIES
CAMP MCKINLEY HAVE BEEN TARGET PRACTICE DURING
wEEK-THB NEW RANGE MODERN IN EVERY RES


The two companies of the Tenth In
fantry that are stationed at Camp Nc
Kinley have been encamped at the
new army post at Kahauiki for the
past week engaged in rifle practice.
The work so far has been but the pre-
liminary practicing. the work of shoot
ing for record will be taken up as soon
as the weather permits. High winds
have been blowing at the range for
the last few days and as the officers
wish the men to make as good a show
ing as possible they are waiting until
the weather favorable. When records
are compared with those Of other COM
panies i'm the states there is no one ON
hand to speak of the weather condi-
tions.
The rifle range which was recently
built under the direction of Lieutenant
M. Garrett is complete i'm every
way 1t WILL in the opinion of the
army men compare faVorably with
those at the older posts on the main
land. strip of ground about one
hundred yards wide and six hundred
yards long has been cleared of Iantana
and of rock, over six hundred cubic
yards of the latter having been re-
moved At the far end of the strip of
cleared ground the pit is placed. This
pit is a cemented trench about ten feet
deep and about sixty feet long with "A
width of about six feet In this trench
are stationed the men who fix the tar
gets and make a note OF the shooting
done. A field telephone is installed
so that the men can communicate with
the men who are doing the shooting.
In fact the range is complete in every
way and Lieutenant Garrett is to be
congratulated on the way in which the
range was built
The shooting at targets is divided into
three classes The slow fire, the rapid
fire and the skirmish. The slow fire
consists in shooting at a target at IA
distance Of six hundred yards. The
rapid fire a man must shoot, starting at
the five hundred mark, five shots in no
longer time than thirty seconds. He
must then run and shoot from a closer
distance until he reaches the two hun
dred yard mark. Then ne must shoot
five shots every twenty seconds. The
skiTmish practice consists i'm shooting
at a target showing a man upon his
knees and also at a figure of man
lying down where only his head is
shown.

MELBOURNE, April 22.-The seis-
mograph at the Melbourne Observatory
was opened by the Government Meteo-
rologist on Saturday. and the earth
quake shock was found to be distinctly
recorded. The record showed that the
first indication of t-emor in Melbourne
occurred at half-past II .. m. on April

ment that the shock of greatest inten-
sity occurred at San Francisco at Is

so minutes for the earthquake to travel
to Melbourne, according to the seismo-
graph record of Al minutes past - a..

The distance from san Francisco to
Melbourne is about 5000 miles From
this it would appear that the earth

| One of the most striking discoveries
made on the seismograph ribbon is the
record of another earthquake on April

originated at a considerable distance
from Melbourne. Mr.. Baracchi is
! greatly surprised that no reports of this
disturbance have yet reached Mel

the statements of various persons who
believe that they felt the San Francis
