Swept From Decks

Upon Sailors Of SAINT Anna.

New York. Dec. 4. A tremen-
dous sea, which hammered the
bow and swept the decks of the
Fabre Line steamship SAINT An
ma. caused the death Of four sea-
men and the serious injury of
three others. News of the dis
aster was brought to port when
the liner arrived today from Mar
settles and Naples.
The ships passage as a whole
was stormy and unpleasant. but
il was not until Nov. n that the
heaviest sea was encountered.
Described by Capt Pavy as the
most terrific he ever encounter
ed" a great mass of water rose
like a wall before the vessel,
then fell with crushing force up.
on the decks, and sweeping over
ever part of the ship, carried sea
men Sarti. Calisti and Quarel'i
overheard like corks. Three
others were stretched out un-
conscious on the decks. The i'm
pact of the wall of water had
nearly stopped the ship. Engines
were reversed quickly. Life
buoys were thrown out promptly
and. as the vessel neared the
spot where the four had been
swept into the sea they were
seen floating on the buoys. The
sea was so violent, however, that
three of them relinquished their
hold and sank. Quarrelli sue
ceeded in grasping a life line and
was hauled aboard.
When attention was directed
to the injured it was found that
two seamen. Foixet and Roumien.
and Pazctti. the ships boy, had
been badly hurt. Foixet's spine
was broken and he died two days
later. The others were operated
upon and probably will recover.

She flew like winds on the back OF
a fleet-fOOted mustang, she laughed at
the farmers and police when they fired
a volley of shots after her. None of
the bullets took effect.
The young woman is described as
being eighteen years old, a decided
brunette, and perfectly" beautiful.
Howard CroushOre, of Ruffsdale,
hitched his $3.50 horse in front of a
store on Monday night. When he re-

been taken by a woman. The con-
stabulary were notified and took up
the trail.
Altogether the young woman is ac-
cused of stealing over forty horses
within the last week.
The state police reported that the
young woman has been joined by a
fashily dressed young man, who also
is handsome, and who, like his fair
companion, has a fleet-footed animal.
The chase so far has covered a dis
tance of eighty-one miles, but the
posses and the police have been un-
allie to get closer to the fugitives than
a quarter of mile.
One farmer reported that he was
held up in the road by the young wo-
man and relieved of his gun, with
which he intended to shoot her.

Il is the most youthful OF staple
products. having had less than CEN
fury Of commercial recognition, but II
has rapidly acquired power until today
It is the King Of Products. The neecy
staple is as good as legal tender on
any market and based on factory val
ues is the richest OF all industries.
For the past century it has engaged
the brightest intellects Of the world in
science and commerce and many OF its
problems are only half solved. The In
ventive minds of the universe have
pored over its fibre: merchant princes
have studied its markets and the
ablest financiers have sought to fix It's
value.
Cotton is limited in its area Of pro-
duction to Texas and q few other
Southern states but it's consumption
Is worldwide and it is one Of the
leading necessities of life which in
sureS forever a profitable return to the
producer. It has been naligned by its
beneficiaries and rallied at by writer's,
but Texas cotton stands today the
most reliable and profitable staple
product Of any crop of all agricultural
states in the Union. The state aver
age OF production per acre 1910 was
l49 pounds: the lint selling for S2O.SS
and the seed at s3.77. making aStotal
average production per acre OF s2463
Comparing this with the leading agri-
cultural products OF other states we
find corn IN Illinois producing Sass
per acre; wheat in Kansas $11.93 per
acre and oats In Iowa 5000 per acre:
these states leading in the products
mentioned.
Cotton IA hxy far tho most valuable
of our farm products. In 1910 we har-
vested 10,530, 900 acres Of cotton, max
ing $40. 600 bales. valued at s21e,-
$4,000. The increase in yield in 1910
over 1909 was "a pounds per acre. The
crop of the United States in 1910 was

ARRESTS RECEIVER
ON HUNTING CHARGE
Las Cruces Land Official Is
Victim Of a Practical
Joke.

Las Cruces, N NJ. May Ar. H.
Sims, receiver of the local United
States land office, was victim Of
practical jokers when he was arrested
yesterday evening for hunting without
a license in violation of a territorial
law. Deputy game warden Edward Ehle
swore out a warrant for Mr. Sims and
accompanied by Mark B. Thompson,
n Q. LleweIlyn and Fay sperry. took
Mr.. Sperry's auto and went in search
of the violator of the law.
Mr. Sims was found and tried be-
fore the justice of the peace in this
city. Owing to the fact that although
deputy game warden Ehle stated on
the witness stand that Mr.. Sims had
not purchased a license from him, he
could not prove that the defendant
had not purchased one from any other
warden, and as Mr.. Sims was not al
lowed to take the witness stand for
fear of convicting himself, the justice
dismissed the case.
Mr. Sims claims that the attorneys
for the defence and prosecution, Mark
&. Thompson and NJ. o. Llewellyn, con
lscated the attorneys fees for social
pleasures and threatens to bring action
against them
