SHELLS JUST HISS CRUISER
Shots From Delaware's Big Guns Land
Near The Panther

The auxiliary cruiser Panther came
near being shot TO pieces during the
destruction of the old battleship Sar
Marcos at Tangier Sound last Monday
The Delaware opened on the Sar
Marcos with her ten 12-inch guns.
The Panther was seven miles away.
The Panther had on board several
moving picture men. who were per.
mitted to take views of the destruc.
ton of the San Marcos. One of these
men said:
don't mean that the Delaware in.
tentionally took US for target, but ]
do mean TO say that three of the Della
wares big shells came our way. The
first one, the thirty-first shot supposed
to have been fired at the old Texas,
struck within 125 yards Of the Panth-
er and ricoche tied over our vessel.
The next shot came within one
hundred yards of US, and the next one
within seventy-five yards, and il looked
like We would certainly be struck, as
the range was coming nearer and
nearer with each shot. Just how it
happened ] am not prepared to say,
but our wireless was got TO work
quickly and we were thus saved"
1t is supposed that as the Panther's
rig made her at seven miles away look
like the old Texas, the Delaware peo-
pie got the two vessels mixed. The
Panther carried 500 men.

COMING TO COLONIAL. THEATRE
The Girl In The Taxi Here On Sept.
8 Matinee and Night

All roads theatrical will lead to the
Colonial Theatre next Saturday, ma
tinee and night, September 9, the date
set for the first appearance in this
city of that laughable and sensational
ly successful French importation,
"The Girl in the Taxi" which comes
with the enviabe reputation of being
the greatest entertainment concocted
for the purpose of enjoyment ever
produced on any stage.
Paris and Berlin greeted it as the
climax to all funmaking plays wit
messed in those cities in years. New
York and Chicago theatre goers would
not permit it to depart from their
midst until it had broken all records
for attendance and boxoffice receipts
known in those cities for farce pro-
auctions. Boston praised it in the
most f1attering terms and turned out
en- masse to applaud its laughable
situations for nearly six months.
With these endorsements 1.-THE Girl

ing an overwhelming reception in
this city. Actors of the best repu-
tations as comedians of the first

NEW AEROPLANE GUN
Has A Range Of Three or Four Miles
And Can Bring Down an Airship
Night or Day

The most powerful and destructive
aeroplane gun that has yet been in
vented will soon be tested by the
Army at Sandy Hook. 1t is the result
of a years investigation and expert
ments by the ordnance officers of the
Army as a means of defense against
aeroplanes.
The gun has a specially designed
carriage and a range of three or four
miles. The design of the carriage
and the character of the projectiles
are not disclosed by the ordnance Off
GERS. 1t is understood that the car
riage is built something after the
design of swivel chair, which will
enable it to be trained in all direc-
tions.
Three types of projectiles for the
experiments have been purchased
abroad and two were manufactured in
the army arsenals. Some of them
will be equipped with tracers. When
fred at night the course of the projee-
tiles can be followed by small light
at the base of the shell. In the day.
time they will leave a trail of smoke.
With the aid of searchlights it is ex-
pected that these guns can bring down
an aeroplane at night as Well as in the
daytime,

RULES ON RED CROSS SEALS
Mr.. Steele Says Government Allows
Their Use On Letters

That the ruling of Postmaster Gen.

affect the Red Cross seals, is the
statement of Mr.. H. Writ Steele, ex-
ecutive secretary of the Maryland Tu-
berculosis Association.
When it was announced Tuesday
that the postal authorities had issued
notice that letters containing the Nc
Namara stamps and others should be
sent to the Dead Letter Office, Mr..

Uncle Sam Refuses to Dispose Of Was.
ships to Turkey-Navy Department
Knows Nothing Of Reported
Negotiations For
Cruisers

Nothing is known at the Navy De-
partment regarding the reported pro-
position of the Turkish Government
to purchase several United States
warships, including the cruisers
Brooklyn. Saratoga. Olympia and Ra-
leigh. One reason for discrediting
the report is the absence of any legal
authority for the sale or other dis
posal of vessels of the navy unless
they have been regularly condemned
as unfit for naval pun poses.
In such cases they are put up at
auction and sold to the highest bidder.
1t is admitted at the Navy Depart
ment that the President possibly
might sell an American warship to a
particular individual or government
without competition, provided the YES
sci was unfit for naval service and her
sale was in the interest of the govern
ment. Such a thing, however, has
never been done. Although the cruis-
ers Brooklyn, Saratoga, Olympia and
Raleigh are of obsolete type, each of
them is still capable OF. rendering eff
cient service for some time to come.
The Saratoga is now on active duty
with the Asiatic fleet. She is the
flagship of Rear Admiral Murdoch.
The three other vessels are at home
stations. All four took a prominent
part in the Spanish war and are spec
tally priced on that account. The
Saratoga was Rear Admiral Samr-
sons flagship at Santiago, the Brook
Ign was Rear Admiral Schley's flag
ship in the same battle, the Olympia
was Admiral Dewey's flagship at Ma
Mia Bay and the Raleigh, also of the
Manila squadron, was under command
of Capt. Joseph B. Coghlan, of "Hoch
der kaiser" fame. The Olympia is at
the Naval Academy, the Brooklyn at
the Philadelphia yard and the Raleigh
at Mare Island.
The armored cruiser Brooklyn, built
at Philadelphia in 1886, is the larg-
est of the vessels named. She is
9215 tons displacement, and was COM
pleted at a cost of S3,067,9 l5. The
next largest of the four vessels is the
Saratoga (ex-New York;, an armored
cruiser of $500 tons displacement,
built at Philadelphia in 1891, and cost
ing almost as much as the Brooklyn.
The Olympia is a second-clalss cruiser,
built at San Francisco in 1926.
The Raleigh is a third-class cruiser,
built at Norfolk at about the same
time. Both are of the protected type

FROM THE OUTSIDE
Mining Expert Says Government Ha:
Positive Evidence That Maine Was
Blown Up Thus

Avery G. Curry, a mining expert of
Arizona, who has just reached Ell
Paso, Tex, from Havana, declares
that the battleship Maine was blown
up from the outside and that there is
positive evidence of this fact now in
the possession of the Navy Depart
ment.
Mr.. Curry, who had much expert
ence in handling explosives during
the war with Spain, declares that
parts of the bottom of the ships
hold were forced upward to the decks
of the ship, something that could
not have happened had the explosion
been in the interior.
Mr.. Curry spent his vacation in
Cuba and visited the wreck several
times while the men were at work
on it.

Don't regard the choosing of color

FORAGE CROPS FOR
 HAPPENING HOGS

There is no branch of farming that will give greater returns for intelligent effort than will hog raising in this state. We have the advantage of the states of the so called meat belt in many respects. Since the establishment of the two large packing houses in Oklahoma City, we have just as good pack ing facilities as they.
 There has also been organized stock company for the purpose of establishing packing plant in Little Rock, which will mean much to the Arkansas farmer.
 We in Arkansas can raise hogs and fatten them for the market much more cheaply than the people of the meat t-belt. We can raise hogs and prepare them for the market at a cost of one to three cents per pound. But if we are to do this, we must make use of the numerous forage crops which are adapted to our soils and climate. Of course, corn is a necessity for growing hogs, but we must have forage crops with which to supply the bulk of our hog rations if we are to raise hogs most profitable.
 1t is now almost to late to SOW crops for spring and early sum- mer grazing, but we must decide at once what crop we shall SOW for mid summer, fall and winter grazing.
 Bermuda grass and sweet po- tatoes are excellent forage crops for hogs during the midsummer. Rape is an excellent forage crop for June and July. It should be planted at once on rich soil. Sometime during the latter part of April or May, sorghum should be sown. Chufas, planted during May or June, will be ready for the hogs during August and September. Cow peas, Soy boans and peanuts will furnish excel lent forage during August and September.
