FAMISHED SURVIVORS
FIGHT FIERCELY FOR FOOD

MESSINA. Dec 3I-A frightful scene
occurred here today amid the ruins
of the custom house. Bands of fam
ished individuals were cropping along
the debris in the hope of discovering
food. The first of the searchers who
were successful were attacked by
others with revolvers and knives and
were obliged to divide their findings
The struggle was fierce.
The famished men threw them
selves upon each other like wolves
and several fell disemboweled in de-
Tending a handful of dry bones or
a few ounces of flour.
One Of the uIffortunates was pinned
to plank by a knife, while clinging
to his hand was his little child, for
whom he had sought food.

ATLANTIC FLEET MAY
AID IN RESCUE WORK

WASHINGTON, Dec. s1.-A memo
randum showing the location and pro-
posed disposition of the Atlantic feet
is now before the state department for
use when the decision is announced to
offer the Italian government the as
sistance of these vessels and their
crews in caring for the sick and
taken up with the Italian government.
President Roosevelt has for himself
and for the American people expressed
his sympathy for the people of Italy
in the calamity that has befallen them,
and this government is anxious TO
do anything it can to relieve distress.
The navy department has asked the
commanding officsr of the Culgoa as to
the condition of his stores, but after
careful examination the officials are
inclined to think there are no more
aboard than are necessary to supply
the larders of the 16 battleships.
Congress will be in session Monday,
and if there should exist any doubt as
to the authority to use naval stores for
relief purposes this can be removed by
a joint resolution directing such use.
Baron des PlancheS, the Italian en-
bassador, called on Secretary Root to-
day and expressed the gratitude of his
pathy of the United States with Italy
in her misfortune. The baron is pro-
foundly gratified for the aid rendered
through the American Red Cross.
Large Sums Raised
WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-Active work
on the part of the American Red Cross
characterized the day. Approximately
$1,000 already has been made avail
able by 1t from previous funds or has
been promised, much of which already
has been cabled to the American en-
bassy at Rome to be turned over to the
Italian Red Cross society. Among the
contributions is one of $4,000 from the
Anheuser- Busch brewing association
of st. Louis.

Narrow ribbons are tied to each end

The odor of rank cooking, together
with a strange feeling Of uneasiness,
caused him to glance up hastily. He

The patrolman, convinced that
things were all right, acted quickly;
Foley's was invaded, and the prisoner,
protesting his innocence at every step,
was hustled of to the station.
Jones went over his story again to
the sergeant, dilating on the details
until the outlook was indeed black for
the unfortunate, who had given the
name of Marshall. A thorough search,
however, failed to bring forth either
tickets or money, and Jones was furi.

HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

There are ISIS members in the
Wisconsin Horticultural society-the
largest, we believe, in the country.
1t cannot be said that the Japan
plums are rushing many fruit growers
into great profit.
1t is a fact that trees along high
ways, trees in towns and cities and
trees in groves amid agricultural re-
gions render the atmosphere purer.
They by their foliage absorb hurtful
gases, which would otherwise be
breathed by the inhabitants of the
densely populated cities, thereby mod
flying diseases, lessening the dangers
of epidemics and in many ways i'm
proving the healthfulness of commune
ties.-New York Farmer
The time for the production of ashes
is at hand. Now the wood ashes
should not be thrown out in the back

place, just to get rid of them. I'm
leached wood ashes makes an excel
lent fertilizer for blooming fruit trees,
and should be preserved for this pur-

THE DANCE IN MONTANA.
Description Of Scene Of Joy Makes
One Long to Have Been There.

There was sure something doing at
the Silver Tip schoolhouse Saturday
night. At eight o'clock the building
was dark and gloomy and the floor
was covered with everything from
chalk to pieces of sage brush and coal,
but behold the transformation which
had taken place in less than an hour.
Three men with bfooms swept the
floor; then for good measure the wom-
en- swept it again. Somebody brought
stove; some one else arranged boards
for seats. Still another sprinkled wax
on the floor about an inch deep, and
then the music started; also the fun.
Twenty-Five couples were on the floor
at ten o'clock. They were still there
dancing like mad until midnight-and
then some.
A boiler of coffee was made. No
one knows who made it, but we will
let that pass. OF course one thought
full person drove cow up to the door,
so there was plenty of milk. A peck
measure contained sugar, and for
spoons you could take your choice of
using your finger or shaking the con-
tents of the tin cup around until the
ingredients were we'll mixed.
And then those ham sandwiches!
Tied UP in tissue paper with red rib
bons. Some were so hungry after the
| strenuous hours of the early evening
that they ate the sandwiches without
removing either the ribbon or paper.
But the dance went on. Was there
ever such a time before? Old-fashioned
quadrilles were mixed in with waltzes
and two-steps, and for good meaGIre
jigs were thrown in. The old school
house may have seen its best days as
far as learning" Is concerned, but it
is pretty good dance hall in a pinch
right now.
Tune up the fiddle; put more rosin
on the bow and let her go. Wow!--
