Marine Disaster Averted.
hundreds OF Lives Saved by Wireless Tele.
graph.

What might have been one of
the most frightful disasters by sea
in the worlds history, was averted
by the use Of the wireless tele-
graph.
Last Saturday morning early,
the White Star Line steamship Re-
public, bound from New York for
the Mediterranean, with 742 peo-
ple on board, was struck by the
italian Line steamship, Florida,
not far from the island of Nam
tucket, off the Massachusetts, coast.
The Republic was struck amid
ships, filling her engine rooms with
water, and was so badly damaged
that all her passengers were trans
ferred to the Florida few hours
later.
BY midnight, however, the con-
dition of the Florida had become so
perilous, her forward compartment
being full of water, that the 442
passengers from the Republic and
500 from the Florida, were trans
ferred to the Baltic, which had
rushed to the scene of the wreck
in response to calls for help sent
out by the Republics wireless sys-
tenn
The crew of the Republic refused
to leave their ship, and late that
night she had drifted to within ten
miles of Nantucket. A revenue
cutter and two tugs stood by should
their services be needed.
La Lorraine, OF the French Line,
and the Cunarder Lucania, being
further away, were slower in reach
ing the scene of the disaster, but
remained in the vicinity all night,
prepared to render any assistance
needed.
The Republic was taken in tow,
and for time it was believed that
she could be brought into port, but
at $50 Sunday night, about 36
hours after the collision, she went
down off No Mans Land, small
island south of Martha's Vineyard.
Six persons were killed by the
collision.
The cause of the collision was
the heavy fog. and the Florida was
80 miles off her course.

There is strong probability that

Many members Of the senate and

hat the State could not afford TO
spend the money. Senator Pen

to introduce the extension bill.
I will call tor an appropriation of
$4,000, 900 to be expended at the
ate of $500, 900 year for the pur-
:hase of thirteen acres of land in
he heart of the city, lying between
Walnut and North streets and the
resent eastern lines of Capito
ark and the Pennsylvania rail
DAD. The extension would give
passengers on the Pennsylvania

An Economy in Sugar.

The best grade of light-brown
sugar is invaluable in the kitchen.
For seasoning it is far superior to
granulated. being sweeter and having
more pleasing flavor.
For making molasses and other
dark cakes no other sugar is suitable
Chocolate and caramel icing, when
made of brown sugar, have a richness
OF flavor that cannot be impaired
when white sugar is used
Fudge should always be made of
brown sugar of the first grade.
Brown sugar spread between slices
of whole bread, makes delicious
sandwiches, and a wholesome sweet
as desert or for children's lunch
boxes.

The Poultry Yard.

Anybody can keep hens but not
anybody can have hens keep him.
Throw the house wide open for
an hour or so on pleasant days, and
give a thorough airing.
Sounds good to hear the merry
cackle of the hens, and how glad
we are to see the egg crop increas-
ing.
1t will be many weeks before the
hen with the frozen comb will do
anything toward filling the egg
basket.
Too mu?h pure air in the quart
ers is almost impossible. Give
plenty of ventilation, avoiding di-
rect drafts.
Mix a tablespoonful of charcoal
with quart of mash, every other
day during this month. 1t will
have a wonderful tonic effect.
A cold, uncomfortable hen will
not lay. The expert poultryman
knows that, and accordingly he
feeds we'll and makes his fowls
work.
Green stuff is scarce article
these days. Steamed clover and
leaves are a good substitute. The
clover contaius lime and other ele
ments that increase egg production.
Do not allow the fowls outdoors
unless the runs are clear of snow.
Poultry that are compelled to eat
snow to quench their thirst are apt
to suffer from bowel disorder.
February is the beginning of the
duck-laying season, but not before
the latter end of the month.
Young ducklings, we'll reared, are
laying now, but there IS not much
profit in their eggs, as they are not
suitable for Matching.
Heat is needed in the poultry
house only when the ventila-
ton is so bad that the air would be
moist without the heat to compel
the air to absorb it. But it is more
reasonable properly to ventilate the
poultry house and keep it dry in
that way.
If there is any bad weather com.
ing to us, it generally makes its ap-
pearance during February. The
wise poultryman is the one who
has already prepared for that einer-
gency, and his hens are not only
comfortable, but are laying eggs in
large quantities.
The best way to warm poultry is
by giving them something to do.
So keep plenty of litter on the floor
and scatter grain in it. Make it
rule to leave the hens to themselves
during the fore part of the day.
That is their busy time and they
do not like to be disturbed then.
In charging an incubator with
eggs they should all be of uniform
size and color. The brown shells
are thicker than the white shells,
and therefore demand different
treatment Moisture or ventilation
sufficient for the one class would
not do for the other. This is the
cause of many failures.
Hen mites can be killed in win.
ter as we'll as summer. If the hen.
can be removed to other quarters
the smoking process will destroy
the mites; but it must be kept vi
for several days in succession.
) Put cobs, chips, etc., with littl'
sulphur, into large kettle and Sc

) pen. Keep it supplied, and keel
watch over it.
