FIERCE STORM
STRIKES FLEET
Lieutenant on BattIeShip ILL.,
noiS Killed and Seaman on
Minnesota Washed Away.

Boston, Mass, Sept. 30.-Wireless dis
patches received today from the Atlantic
squadron anchored at the head of Cape
Cod bay off the Barnstable shore show
that two lives were lost, two vessels
damaged and the entire fleet was given
severe shaking up ip the storm which
ragged yesterday in the bay.
The fleet was anchored off a lee shore
and only the strength of their ground
tackle saved some of the warships from
being thrown on the beach.
Lieutenant John NJ. Purse of the battle
ship Illinois was thrown against a hatch
and so badly injured internally that he
died today.
On board the Minnesota seaman, name
not known, was washed overheard and
drowned.
The refrigerator ship Glacier dragged
her anchor and colided with the cruiser
Des Moines, necessitating sending both
vessels to the Charlestown navy yard for
repairs.
For more than twenty hours the great
ships were tumbled about in the big seas
which surged into the bay. Nearly every
vessel had some of her crew bruised by
being hurled about the big ships.
In the collision with the Glacier, the Des
Moines had her stem badly damaged and
was raked along her starboard side, losing
two devits and the boats on them.

first day.
How many were in attendance today,
Mr.. Freed-an estimator
Don't know; don't know a thing
about it. Been too busy with horses =
fast horses. slow horses, all Kinds Of
| horses"
How was the attendance on the
opening day, Mr. McDonald?" was the
question put to The presi1en. OF the as
ISOLATION.
Excellent, excellent. We must have
had more than sixty-five hundred peo-
pie out here today"
The president of the association de-
elared that he and his associates were
| exceedingly we'll pleased with the fair.
The judging of horses will take place
! this forenoon at 10 O'Clock. There are
more horses present than there have
| ever been before, and they are of a
| higher grade.
Today the kennel for the dog show
will be completed, if nothing happens.
A dozen poor, lonesome dogs and one
mother with a litter that ought to be
behind a stove, were housed yesterday
in the old building, where shift was
made for them. The kennel show Will
be one of the events of the fair, and
there IS no question that it will prove
entertaining 20 the spectators, so be it
it ever becomes entertaining to the
dogs.
There was an informal series of exer-
cises in the forenoon, when Governor
John C. Cutler. on behalf of the state,
and James G.. Mcdonald, on behalf of
| the association, exchanged courtesies in
the manufacturers building A large
number Of people heard the remarks of
the two. Prior thereto, however, the
people heard the prayer of the Rabbi
Freund, whose invocation was appro-
pirate to the occasion in every way.
The crowd got what it came for. 1t
was quite appropriate that the country
crowd didn't arrive on time, for the
opening and that the strictly rural
exhibits were the ones which were
behind in completion. The amusements
which were prepared in advance on
the theory that the first days crowds
would be a city crowd in search IF
amusement were not only there" but
were pulled off practically on time
The greatest of these were The races.

MCDONALD HAS A STRENUOUS DAY
WHIPPING THE FAIR INTO SHAPE

exhibit are local people. The crowd be-
| ing distinctly a holiday and amusement
crowd dallied rather with the interesting
and bizarre features than with the me-
chanical and commercial ones. The great
est crowd of the day was gathered con-
stantly about little Doris Johnston whose
job was TO eat candy for the Mcdonald
company. Doris wore a Dutch dress and
costume. which with her yellow hair and
pretty, stolid, not to say eXpressionless,
face made the perfect chocolate girl. Be
hind her was an exhibit of pictures by
school children of posters representing
their ideals of proper Mcdonald poster.
Some of them looked startlingly like Doris
and all were well executed.
Doris was selected after a competition
from several small girls for the position.
Her job is to sit still for ten hours and
eat candy. Sounds good to the young
ones doesn't il? Yet Doris at 10 o'clock
last night was on the verge of tears. She
nibbled at the candy most gingerly She
intimated that she never again wanted to
see a chocolate. Observers said she
started off too strong.
OF the great afternoon crowd a num-
Der were children When they got tired
of ''rubberihg' at Doris and her free
candy spread they watched the Geisha
girls across the corridor at their work OF
giving away tea and coffee. There were
four of them. They were rOuged and
penciled until they made perfect Geishas.
They also distributed coffee, which like
the rest OF the produce made its highest
boast that 1t was made in Utah" They
were pretty dainty and well cOstumed.
Furthermore the coffee which they dis
tribute was miIled and packed in Utah
But the first trip of the children was
to drag their respective parent or parents
to see their old friend "Jim,' who was
pried with some considerable trouble from
the sidewalk on Second South street
Jim" whose last name is Bruno, is the
bear which has his post Just below the
Wilson hotel as an advertisement for a
local furrier He is the best known Ted
Iy Bear in the world and is generally ac-
companied by a st. Bernard dog whom
the children will be glad TO know is not
on the job in the big auditorium because
he is training for the fairs dog show
Another and amusing exhibit especially
as regards the freak sign was the sewing
machine which advertised TO darn your
stockings on the machine" Everybody
made just the same joke about it, DO
we take them off or stand on our heads
and have them ddTned while we waltz
One alleged wit remarked that was the
"darndest sign he ever saw"
Another sign which may have 70 be
changed from its very appropria teness is
Lester Freed. Judge of Speed"
AS a matter of fact there were judges
of everything and the judges seemed to
have about eight assistants apiece labeled
with big white badges Supervisor" They
all rustled around very busily and with
some effect. It takes some moving ID
make fair in day and that is just what
was done.
