START THE WEEK
. BY ENTERING THE
PROvERb CONTEST
Your Chance at the $4,000
Worth of Prizes Is as
Good as Ever.

You eou'ar-'t do better than begin the
week by entering the Proverb Contest
It will take but very little of your
time each day, and If you answer the
proverbs correctly there is big pay in
store for you. Over $4,000 worth Of
prizes is offered for just a little intelli
gent thinking.
This sums up in a few words the
remarkable offer made by the Newark
EVENING STAR in it's great Proverb
Contest, which has aroused more In
terest than has ever before been dis
played over a puzzle competition con-
Quoted by any publication in this coun-
try.
There are two reasons for this un-
precedented interest. First. there are
the proverb pictures themselves; thes
make you think. and once you start
thinking them out you will be sure tc
co e for the mere fun there is in 1t
The second reason is the prizes: They
would be worth many days of hard
work for chance to get at them, Il
hard work was required. The first
rrizo is a $1,1o0 Mitchell automobile
the second a $3.50 Lauter- Hurnana, the
third $3.50 Hallet & Davis Player
Piano, the fourth REQ runabout worth
$500. The remaining forty-eight prizes
are valuable and practical and just as
desirable
The rules of the contest are simple
and easy to follow and absolutely fair
to affair In the manner in which
contestants are allowed to prepare their
answers and fair in allowing those who
have not yet started to begin at any
time.
From time to time the contest ed-
tor has received letters suggesting GER
tain changes in the rules These sug-
gestions varied widely and apparently
represented individual ideas of con-
testants. No two of the suggested
changes agreed OF course no amend
ments TO the rules can be made only in
the interest of protecting contestants
The rules were carefully worked out
and were designed to draw all classes
into the contest-men, women and chill
dren-those who were familiar with
proverbs as well as those who were
not. and they must stand as they were
announced until the end of the contest
Everyone. whether contestant OF
not, is invited to view the prizes which
are now on display at the various
stores. They may be seen in the show
windows. Look them over carefully

ity of each one. Pick out what you

SAW TUG NINA HEADED
OUT IN TERRIFIC SEA.

WASHINGTON, Feb l4-All the
resources of the navy and the revenue
cutter service are still unsuccessful in
their search for the tug Nina.
The revenue cutter Gresham reported
from Boston early today that she had
spoken the tug Savage which left
Chesapeake bay In company with the
Nina last Sunday. The skipper of the
Savage told the commander of the
Gresham the seas were running so high
he decided to turn back. But the Nina
headed on out to sea with the waves
breaking high over her bow That was
the last the Savage saw of her.
Ships of the navy and the revenue
service all up and down the Atlantic
coast are watching and speaking every
shin they can reach by wireless for
news Of the tug. which seems to be lost
with all hands.

GAR JUMPS TRACKS
IN HARRISON AND
CAUSES ALARM
Vehicle DemoIishes Trolley Pole
and Mail Box in Its
Path.

With a crash that could be heard
for several blocks, Kearny trolley car
No. 1852, yesterday afternoon, struck a
trolley pole at the corner of Central
avenue and Fourth street, Harrison
and so loosened it from it's foundations
as to, knock it several inches out OF
plumb.
The car. the motorman's name OF
which could not be learned. was nortn-
bound on Fourth street. At Central
avenue, the crew decided to turn back
The motorman threw the switch and
started around the curve. Before he
had time to realize 1t the heavy vehicle
was ploughing over the wooden pave
ment.
There was loud report as the car
hit the trolley pole and swayed It.
Some of the wires snapped as the pole
bent over. A mail box which Is used
for packages was knocked at least
twenty feet and pole on which was q
letter-box was snapped almost in
twain.
Persons who witnessed the accident
were sure that the car would go over
the sidewalk and into the side of the
Harrison postoffice. Mrs. William
Wilkie, who resides upstairs over the
postoffice, was sitting at the window
with her 4-year-old son. When she saw
the car coming toward the building she
picked up the boy and ran from the
window
The repair wagon was sent for. and
it took the men some time to repair the
broken strands The motorman OF the
car that did the damage was a new
man. There was no one in. the car
when the accident occurred.

BATTLE. HIPS HUNT
ALL NIGHT FOR TUG
NINA, FEARED Lost
Powerful Searchlights and Wire
less Fail to Find Trace of
Government Boat.

BOSTON, Feb 1.-THE powerful
searchlights of the battleship fleet and
other vessels that searched along the
Atlantic coast through the night had
failed to reveal any sign of the missing
tug Nina when gathering daylight
pushed slight haze down on the water
today. Tho search was continued, but
no tidings of the Nina were flashed 20
the wireless stations along the New
England coast.
Although the chances are slim that
the Nina has weathered the storm and
Is now somewhere afioat out of the
course of merchant ships, and the zone
being patrolled by searching naval ves-
sells, there is still some hope found in the
fact that no wreckage from her has as
yet been discovered It Is known that
she carried at least two, and possibly
three. whaleboats, and it seems alto
gether unlikely that she could have
gone to the bottom without leaving
af1oat some wreckage In the shape of
boats, oars or other paraphernalia
from about her deck. The naval officers
stated today that while the hope that
the Nina had escaped disaster was
small, indeed, the search would be con-
tinued for some time, and for at least
"a month to come there would be pos
sible chance of the Nina's. crew having
been picked up by some passing ves-
sci possibly bound to foreign port.
Orders have gone forth to all the
vessels of the navy and revenue cutter
service to continue their search today
with renewed vigor.
The revenue cutter Gresham, will
strike out to the nortl1eastward and
eastward of Cape Cod. Mass. The gun
boat Castine is in the vicinity of Vine
yard sound. Yesterday she cruised
through the southeastern parts of Nan
tucket sound. but found no trace of the
missing tug. During the night she
anchored off Edgartown, Mass, and
early this morning was out again on
the hunt.
The battleship Louisiana, which went
out from the Virginia capes, plowed
the seas for miles northward of the
Chesapeake bay entrance yesterday
The zone coyecsd by her from the high
wicker masts was twent. miles by day
and five miles by night. But no trace
whatever of the little navy tug was
seen in the diligent cruise. Not even q
| bit of wreckage was seen during the
Louisiana's voyage, and this fact 81 e.
some hope to the anxious relatives and
naval officers.
The torpedo-boat destroyer Lamson,
which left Philadelphia Saturday eve-
ming, steamed out of the Delaware bay
and headed northeastward.
Over the course used by small vessels
the Lamson cruised until she sighted
Shinnecock light, on the Long Island
coast near the eastern end of the ISL
and. Her course was then directed
toward Newport, r.. l., passing Block
Island. Bad weather was met by the
LamSon.
The fast scout cruiser Salem dis
patched from Norfolk is sweeping the
seas in every direction along the much
travelled highway and questioning all
vessels she meets whether anything has
been seen by them of the Nina.

CHILEAN CRUISER RACES
TO SAVE LIMA SURVIVORS,

ANCUD, Chile, Feb. 1.-THE Chilean
cruiser Ministro Zenteno and five
steamers Of the Pacific Navigation
Company. are racing south today In the
desperate hope that they may save the
lightweight persons, who, when last re-
ported, were clinging to the stern of the
British steamer Lima as the vessel was
pounding herself to pieces on a reef in
the Huamblin passage. In the Strait of
Magellan.
Two hundred and five persons were
taken from the wreck by the British
steamer Hatumet under difficulties
which finally compelled the Hatunet to
abandon the work of rescue. Four, of
the Hatumet's crew sacrificed their lives
before their captain commanded his
crew to cease their efforts.
The Hatunet has arrived here and to-
day her captain told the story of the
wreck and rescue. He said:
when we sighted the wreck we put
out small boats. which closely ap-
preached the stern of the Lima, where
passengers and crew had gathered. We
made connection between the two ves-
sells with 500 fathoms of cable and were
successful in lowering 2o5 persons into
our small boats. and In getting them
upon the Hatumet. Heavy seas were
rolling, which made the work Of rescue
perilous, and finally the Lima's end Of
the cable slipped from her stern and be-
came entangled in the rocks. Without
the aid of the cable we could not reach
the wreck. and but for this accident all
would have been rescued. In the In
creasing seas our boats made futile
