Word reached here Sunday morning
that the other member of the crew.
q negro, had not been captured az yet,
but had been surrounded at Rollins
Forks, Va, and that there was no
chance OF his escape.
The two men who have been arrest
ed refuse to make any statement re-
garding the mutiny or the murders,
and will neither confess nor deny
any part i'm the crime, further then to
admit that they were members of the
crew OF the Irene Ruth.
John Adams, the mate of the vessel,
has been sent to Washington and his
condition Is considered precarious. III
is the opinion OF the physicians here
that he cannot survive long, as his
skull liz crushed and he sustained
internal injuries.
The body OF the negro cook, Chas.
Marks, or Maddox, was recovered
Sunday morning, and II is the opin-
ion or the residents here that the mu-
tineers, having failed to get him on
their side pushed him overheard The
captain was killed by blow from a
Ratchet and the mate was conscious
only long enough to say that he had
been struck by the same weapon.

GENEROUS AMERICA.
Red Cross Relief Operations World
Wide i'm 1910
Earthquake, Fire, Flood, Explosion,
Hurricane, War and Massacre
Called for Aid.

Six big disasters will occur in the
United States in 1911. This is not the
prediction of an astrologer but of the
American Red Cross, the organization
which conducts a larger work of re-
lief among people stricken by great
calamities than any other agency in
the world. Experience has led the
Red Cross to expect an average OF
five or six serious disasters in this
country every year. 1t does not know
where or when they will occur, or
whether they will be caused by storm,
or fire, or food, or earthquake, or eX-
plosion. But it is sure that they will
happen, just as one may be sure that
fifteen persons of every thousand now
living will die in the next twelve
months.
World wide service to humanity
was shown in reports presented at the
recent national meeting Of the Ameri-
can Red Cross in Washington. This
organization, of which President Taft
is the president, is recognized by the
federal government as the official
channel for the conduct of relief
work wherever in the United States
people suffer from the results OF great
calamities. But the Red Cross does
not confine itself to relief operations
in this country. Its field is the world.
Experience proves not only that an
average Of five or six disasters, severe
enough to call for Red Cross help,
may be expected to occur every year
in the United States, but that the de-
mands from other countries may be
expected to be equally numerous.
Some idea OF the character and variety
Of these demands may be gained from
the disasters with which the Red
Cross dealt in the last twelve months.
These included, in the United States,
one hurricane, one mine fire, two
mine explosions and forest fires in
Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington
and Minnesota; in foreign countries,
relief OF starving captured soldiers in
Nicaragua, floods In Mexico, France,
Servia and Japan, the Armenian mas
sacres and the earthquake in Costa
Rica.
IN the disasters above mentioned
which occurred in the United States
sos lives were lost, while, approx
mately, Z, 500 persons required immedi-
ate assistance. About 5000 persons
lost their homes by fire or hurricane.
The money expended by the Red Cross
In these relief operations in the
United States was $196,000,- 49,, and in
foreign countries $66,50O, a total OF
$685., 500. Other relief funds expended
in this country in conjunction with
those of the Red Cross and according |
to its plans and methods amounted to |
$21S,OOO, making the grand total re-
lief expenditures of the year under
Red Cross leadership $4S0,500.

Fire at Meadow Branch.

What might have been very de-
structive fire occurred III the straw
stack i'm the barnyard on the farm or
the late Samuel Roop, Meadow Branch,
on Monday evening, during the high
wind. An alarm of fire was sounded
In this city to attract the flremen to
fire building to get them to assist in
fighting the blaze. About twenty fire
men, with hook and ladder and fire
extinguishers hurried to the scene
and by their heroic work, assisted BY
a number of farmers in the vicinity,
the fire was kept under control until
the straw could be moved to the
meadow below the barn, thus saving
the large barn and other buildings
which were In danger. II seems q
miracle that fire with such high
wind did not get Roadway and de-
stroy the barn. Mr.. George Bell Is

The Poultry Yard.

Green food must not be forgotten.
Some feed green rye when 1t can be
had, others give spotted oats, others
beets and turnips and cabbage, and
others add cut clover hay To the mash.
All of the green's mentioned are good.
Salt is as essential for poultry as
for human beings or. animals. But it
IL not wise to feed 1t by itself. The
better way IL to season the food when
ever that can be DONE The warm
mash In the winter gives an excellent
opportunity to supply II.
A little more corn may BE- added to
the evening grain ration, as the hens
will need more heating food. On the
farm or the writer grain ration con-
sists or two parts whole corn, one part
oats and one part wheat. During the
summer only one part corn Is given to
two parts oats and one part wheat.
