RAMMEDbY
SUBMARINE
(By United Press Leased Wire. }

(By United Press Leased Wire
NORTH TRURO, Mass, July
ia corps of divers from the
Charlestown navy yard began
work today on the hull of the
beached gunboat Castine, which
was rammed by the submarine
Bonita in yesterdays flotilla ma
neuvers off Provincetown. Should
the damage be found more extern
sive than is at present supposed,
a special wrecking crew will be
sent from the Newport torpedo
station to aid in saving the gun
boat.
The Castine, which is an old
vessel, was acting as flagship of
the submarine flotilla and was di-
recting fleet and signal practice
when she was struck. The nose
of the submarine hit the gunboat a
glancing blow abaft the starboard
bow and sprung her plates and
carried away portions of the deck
railing.
The gunboat began filling
slowly and it was deemed best to
send her on the beach. Collision
bulkheads were closed before the
Castine was grounded. 1t was re-
ported that the boiler rooms and
dynamo compartments were flood
ed, but that the bulkheads have
kept the vessel above the surface.
The accident is attributed to
misjudgment on the part of the
officers of the Bonita, and it is
probable that an official investi-
cation will be begun soon.

Here's a Jim dandy rat trap
that can be made in jiffy by any
handy youngster.
Take quart Mason jar, such as
your mother uses In the fall to
put fruit in. Bury the jar in the
ground up to the shoulder" and
with hammer carefully break a
hole in the side above the ground,
just large enough for rat to
crawl though. Put some shelled
corn in the bottom of the jar and
close the mouth with a board
weighted down with a stone.
The rats will crawl through
the hole in the side after the corn,
and owing to the slippery glass
sides will be unable to climb out.
Lift the jar out of the ground
every day and let the dog get
busy.
