CUNARD LINER BURNS
LUCANIA SUNK TO PREVENT To-
TAI DESTRUCTION
Big Vessel Is Quilted from Tunnels For
ward at Liverpool Dock and Firemen
Fight Futile Battle

LIVERPOOL, Aug. 16.-The Cunard
lines steamer Lucania lies submerged at
the Huskisson dock, seriously damaged
having been almost Quilted from her fun
nels forward by fire which broke out on
board the liner at { o'clock Saturday
night. The flames are supposed to have
originated in the saloon kitchen.
The fire brigade of the vessel, with
two powerful motor engines, turned out
Immediately at the first alarm and found
end to end. Despite all their efforts the
flames gradually worked forward until
they reached the steerage, consuming
every particle of the woodwork there,
and then practically destroyed the fore
hold.
At this time the heat was tremendou.
and the flames. shooting high from the
vessel, attracted thousands of persons to
the side of the river, where they re-
manned throughout the night.
At 3 o'clock Sunday morning it was
decided to flood the vessel by admitting
water into her from the dock. Soon she
heeled over and her tunnels came in
contact with the cranes on the dock and
were badly damaged i. A half dozen fire.
men who were on the gangway at this
time were thrown into the water, but all
were rescued. A feet of tugs then was
brought into reQuisition and pulled the
liner upright and held her until she set
tied firmly on the mud bottom.
The second-class quarters and the
whole after part Of the boat, including
the engine room, escaped injury from
the flames and comparatively slight
damage was done to the exterior of the
vessel. Her upper part is considerably
above water. The first saloon skylights
were destroyed and the decks forward
are badly buckled. Some of the plates
Of the hull were warped by the heat.
The repairs to the Lucania will occupy
considerable time.

PRAY DURING A PANIC.
Holy Jumpers Get on Knees When
Storm Whips Tent Pole About
in Crowd.

WAUKESHA, Wis, Aug. 16.-[Spe-
cial. lin a wild panic Sunday after
noon following the collapse of a large
tent at the Fountain house grounds in
which the holy Jumpers" were holding
their camp meeting, several persons
were painfully injured and many others
escaped with slight bruises. During the
panic many members of the sect re-
manned on their knees praying.
The most seriously injured were:
Freda Goldman, scalp wounds, bad cuts
on face and body badly bruised; Robert
Farrell, cuts on head and face, and Sc
we're bruises on body; Mabel Baton, cuts
and bruises on head and arms; Mrs
Soee, cut and bruised on head and arms.
The afternoon camp meeting was in
progress when the storm, which came up
suddenly, struck the big tent. The CEN
ter pole, IS feet high, was shaken loose
and dangling by ropes was whipped
about over the heads of the crowd which
became panic stricken in an effort to get
out of the tent.
The crowd had scarcely started on its
mad rush when the canvas collapsed on
the heads Of the fleeing people and that
many persons were not trampled to
death seems a miracle.

NOT care for color or line and come on,
in the latest fashions. Then there are
others whose gowns show evidences of
planning in which the spouse has had
a finger regarding the tint Of the fabric
or fhe way it is fashioned. Some of the
women one sees at these exhibitions trail
about in artistic and soulful robes which
look as though plucked from an unwill-
ing Botticelli angel and become slightly
strained in the fray. Very charming
are other of these artistic draperies even
though they lack that perfection OF nm
ish and trimness which in fashionable

THE FOUNTAIN PEN IN RUSSIA.
And the Chick Pea in Mexico, AL Under
the Watchful Consular Eye.

Every once in while the Consular
REPORTS contain information OF sort
that appeals as being odd. For instance,
to a man whose first emotion when NJ ne
hears the name Russia is to think OF 81
IBERIA and general darkness and persecu-
ton, an announcement of trade oppor-
tunities for fountain pens rings queer.
The announcement to the INTENDING
introducer of fountain pens concludes
with the note:
There is polytechnic school in Riga
and a university at Dorpat, both IN the
province of Livonia. The former mas
about 1900 students and the latter 30Oo.
There are no book rooms maintained NJ
the high schools, but students can OBTAIN
stationery, etc, from the beadles proc
tors). AS a rule, however, the students
purchase their supplies at the, different
stores. Correspondence with these bea--
dies would be of little or no value and
business relations should be confined to
business firms.
Almost next door to this item is an
article regarding the growth of chick
peas in Mexico. These, the reader IS
Informed, are almost universally export
ed to Spain 1t is odd to learn that
SPANS typical dish depends not little
upon imports from Mexico.
