New York, Feb. 5.-An aerial
cry for help came palpitating over
the sea to-day to all the alert force
of the United Wireless within 200
miles OF the Cape Hatteras station.
It was not the old signal that made
Binns, OF the Republic, famous, but

orators of all nationalities heed.
The wireless ears of the navy
yard heard it, the amateurs who
could not hope to lend assistance
heard it, and all the coastwise craft
at sea from Cape May to Jackson
vile waited tremulously for the
message that followed the signal:
Kentucky sinking; latitude,
32.Io; longitude, $500
Then there was a consultation of
officers, and all ships headed for the
Kentucky's position, about 200
miles east by north Of Savannah.
The nearest wireless steamship to
the Kentucky was the Mallory
Liner Alamo, bound from this port
for Key West, Tampa, and Mobile,
and she ate up the knots to answer
the cry.
WARSmPS SENT OUT.
Meanwhile. Capt. William A. Marshall.
commandant Of the Norfolk Navy Yard,
had sent out the battle ship Louisiana
and the scout cruiser Birmingham to the
Kentucky. Also the revenue cutter Yama-
craw started out from Savannah to help.
And while the merchant and war ships

7HE BoYy Ar AuSrpAL1A en oo1RALL IN vvby7ERN
AUSTRALIA

We had had fine Swims, walks about
town, along the beach, and trips out
to the reef Then there were excur-
sions into the hills where flowers and
plants grow in great abundance and
oranges grow wild, and such fine, juicy
ones, too. All one had to do was to
give tree a shake and down they
came in shower. Besides there were
the bananas, pineapples, cocoanuts and
any number of other fruits to be had
for almost nothing:
Our next stop was Rarotonga. Here
we found the natives and conditions
to be very similar to those of Tahiti.
The people were every bit as generous,
for when the boys returned to the ship
they were loaded down with fruit But
that night, after leaving; we ran right
into a big storm and needless to say
there was very little desire for the
fruit.
Six days later we entered Cooks
straits and passed into Wellington
harbor. On landing in the city the
first thing which drew our attention
was a large bronze statue of Queen
Victoria. Wellington also has a very
fine botanical garden, where all sorts
of strange and wonderful plants may
be seen. From here our party took the
train for Auckland, stopping at sew
eral small towns on the way. New
Zealand scenery is very beautiful. In
places the train travelled along the
face of mountain above the ocean; at
others through gently rolling farm
land Again it would fly across deep
gorge, or through timber country. And
the sheep! Large herds of them ap-
peared everywhere, for this country
produces a great amount of wool. Also
much frozen mutton is shipped to Eng
land. New Zealand has some fine large
horses, and these are sent all over
Australia.
The natives of New Zealand, the
Maoris, are a race of tall people, and
are very quick to pick up civilized
methods. They are rapidly becoming
educated.
Our first Australian port was sgd
ney. This city has one of the prettest
harbors in the world. Sydney is also
in Australia, and contains several
beautiful parks and quite number of
excellent public buildings. During the
summer months a great deal of SWIM
ming goes on and here can be seen
some of the best swimmers in the
world. Many good beaches and BATH
ing places are to be found In all dlrec-
tions.
The next city of Importance at which
we stopped was Melbourne, in the state
of Victoria. Here, instead of the mar
row streets, such as Sydney had, we
found magnificent broad bouleYards in
many places with trees and flowers
planted down their centers and sides.
The plan of Melbourne is much superior
to that of any Of the other Australian
cities, as II is laid out on what is
known as the block plan. While at
Melbourne we made a couple of inter-
estlng side trips TO the gold mining
eenters OF Bendigo and Ballarat Here
large amounts of gold have been. taken
The San Francisco call., 1910-03-18

out and the mines drilled to enormous
depths. The precious metal was dis
covered here just a short time after
its discovery in California.
From Victoria we travelled around
the southern part of Australia to the
city of Perth in Western Australia
Perth is very pretty and has a beau-
tiful location on the Swan river, on
whose waters can be seen numbers of
black swans from which the river
takes it's name. The interior of this
state contains a great deal of forest
land. and quite a numbering industry
is carried on. Most of the wood in
Australia is the gum tree, which is
so well known in our own state Of
California. Only in Australia, it is
put to a greater variety of uses After
leaving the timber country, we entered
the desert area on our way to the
big mining city of Kalgoorlie. Where
ever we looked, no matter what the
direction, all we could see was fiat
country with nothing but low scrub
to break the monotony of the view.
Kalgoorlie surprised us. We expected
to find small town and instead found
a large city with big mines street
cars, factories, and public parks. All
this is made possible by small pipe
which brings water from near Perth.
over $50 miles to the center of this
desert, in which has sprung UP a fine
city. The mines here are simply Won
derful. and immense fortunes have
been taken out of them. This part of
the country has severe dust storms.
and also gets very hot, so our party
was very glad to start back to Perth.
where we took the boat for south
Australia.
South Australia is a great wheat
producing state, due to the fact that
it has so much level, untimbered coun-
try Large numbers OF fine sheep are
also raised. The boys were taken
through several copper mines and a
couple of large smelters while here.
Also a trip to Broken Hill was made.
This is a great silver mining place.
In fact. 1t contains the largest silver
mine in the world. The city is, like
Kalgoorlie, situated in a desert, but
differs from that city In having but
a poor supply of water. In consequence
seen. The surrounding country is very
barren of any kind Of plant life, but
thousands OF rabbits can be found A
curious sight here Is the camel trains,
which carry supplies to the mines
out in the surrounding desert country.
After travelling around a bit more in
this state, we returned to Adelaide the
capital, to get the train for Melbourne.
Adelaide contains more parks than any
other city in Australia. There are also
a number of fine public buildings and
churches. 1t is sometimes called the
city Of churches. The suburbs contain
some very beautiful residences, for
nearly all the homes have gardens.
From Melbourne we went to the lit
tie island OF Tasmania. Although the
smallest of the states.it is the prettiest
and especially is this so as regards Ho-
bart, the capital city, which faces q
fine harbor and Is backed by big Mount
