WHY NOT THE ROUTS THAI
LEADS TO THE CHESA-
PEAkE CAPES?

Mr.. Andrew Carnegie, in letter
to Mayor Gaynor inclosing check
for 5000 for the sufferers from tho
Titanic wreck, asks: "What was the
Titanic doing up there among the ice
when she had the whole Atlantic oc-
can south, open and frec?" In reply
ing, Judge Gaynor wrote: GAS usual,
you hit the nail exactly on the head.
They had no business up there among
the ice bcrgs."
Then why did the ship take that
coursee? asks the Baltimore Ameri-
Because it is shorter and the currents
favor it. The captain was warned
OF the ice bergs. But, acting on the
orders of the owners Of the line, The
captain was trying to make fast time,
and in order to lower the record ne
took the risk.
Why should anyone take such a r1sk
to save a few hours or even a few
DAYS in crossing the ocean? In every
respect the southern route is best. The
sea off Cape Sable is known as the
graveyard of ships and the fogs that
hover over the banks of Newfoundland
arc an ever present danger to ship
ping. Why not go far to the south
and sail through summer seas, rather
than through fog and ice bergs?
The best route from Europe to Am
erica leads straight to the Chesapeake
Canes. 1t would take longer to trav-
cl that route, but what is lost in time
might be more than gained in insur-
ance and safety.

LITTLE WAITS OF THE SEA.

Waits Of the sea, too young to tell
their names, and with even their ma
LionaIity unknown to the generous
friends they have found, in new
world, two chubby-faccd curly-haired
boys rescued from The Titanic awokc
in New York after Il good nights
rest.
Miss Margaret Hays cared for them
in the lifcboat and on board the Car
pathia. One is apparently 2l-2
years old, while the other is 3 IL.
A nine months old baby was tossed
into a boat and saved. 1t is now in
New York, and should the child live
it will never know to whom it is re-
lated or by whom begottcn.
Miss Hays, in talking Of her res
cue, pictured tragic scene. The
lifcboat in which she escaped was the
last to leave the Titanic, she said.
Struggling victims were seen in the
water, and one was so near that his
shouted request to be rescued was
plainly heard. This mans plight
touched the hearts Of the women and
several of them joined in begging tho
officer in command of the boat to
turn back and save all that could be
reached. There was plenty of room
in the boat, Miss Hasy asserts.
"At this juncture,' she continued,
"a man, first cabin passenger, Hour
ished revolver and announced that
would shoot dead the first person who
attempted a rescue. His action cow
cd the others in the boat, and it pulled
| away, leaving the unfortunate to go
| down."

Echoes of the Disaster.

GARD of directors Of the White Star
Line, was Il passenger on the lll-lat-
eel Titanic. The fact that lsmay, a
man was rescued, while dozens OF wo-

siderable comment against the White
Star official on both sides of the At

that ncaly every man went w"dn

UndcrwO0d's Candidacy.

The Gazette publishes today as one
of It's sections four page supplement
devoted to the candidacy of the Hon.
Oscar w. Underwood, for the Demo-
cratic nomination as president of the
United States. 1t should be under
stood that this SUPPLEMENT is an advcr-
tiscmcnt, paid for by tho Underwood
Campaign Committee and was moi
prepared by the Gazette. At tho
same time VIC have no hcsitancy in
saying that the Democratic party
could not 90 into contest represent
cd by q cleaner, more courageous and
more honorable man than the brilliant
young Congressman from Alabama.
He has been tried and has been found
worthy in every respect. Despite
this admiration for Underwood VIC
have felt that the Democracy of Viz
rinia should not tie too strongly to
any ono candidate at tho present time.
All Of the men who have been prom
incntly mentioned. Harmon, Clark,
Underwood and Wilson arc men of
high character and would make good
leaders in the coming field but cXpend
fancy may make ono man more avail
able than others as the nominee of
the party.

A Washingtonian, who has sailed

A Washingtonian, who has seilec
the seas many times with Capt. Smith
is indignant at what he termed at
tenpts to besmirch the character Of
the dead sea officer. The captain anG
he had been friends for years, he SAID
IL am proud to have travelled with
Capt. Smith and to have enjoyed his
friendship" he said. ~ know well
that a captain of a ship is sup
posed to be absolute monarch on
board, but know also that manag'
ing director, when on ship is great
or monarch. People may argue that
a captain is master and director
subordinate at sea, but for one don't
believe it.
GLOW do we know that Capt. Smiths
instructions were not to make rec
ord? How do we know that when
Capt. Smith received warning of ice
bergs he didn't carry the word to the
man who was his chief.
1--WE don't know these things; no
person knows but God and manager
Ismay. If Mr.. Ismay is absolutely
innocent then Capt. Smith is guilty.
| do not say that Mr.. Ismay is guilty,
but is he is, ! sincerely hope he will
have manhood to remove the SUSPECT
on from the dead during the inquiry"
The above is suggestive. 1t often
happens that persons burdencd with
great responsibilities, have silent
chiefs, who echew liability for troub-
les for which they are responsible.

There will be a slaughter of pig cons at the range of the Bisbee Rifle club, on the grounds of the Warren District Country Club, on Sunday morning. All of the old hands, legiti. mate disciples of Nimrod, will ganer there. and everlastingly knock the dust out Of any pigeon that dares to
 cave the trap.
 Professionals that will participate are lift, of Tucson. and Russ A. Warner, of San Francisco. Mir. Warner is already in the city, and Mir lift will arrive Saturday The strongest local contender will be H. D. McVay, who to date holds tn> belt, and who knows more about gun powder and what 1t will do than the Chink who invented it. There will be other shotgun men of Bisbee m the free for all. but it will be up to McVay to send the powder represent atives about their business.

 Clarence Warner. who ia know n here and has played for the O.d Douglas club in the good old days
 vas sold the other day to the Ona' ha baseball "luD of the Western league by the Iln ra New ICrk) State league team He vent from here 10 the New York Americans and after brief trial with them, was sent to Jersey City 10 play in the Eastern league and left there to go with the Memphis team of the southern league When he was in the south he was classed as the best second baseman in the Southern league He is also a good fielder, but is somewhat shy on the stick work, but should be able to hold his place with the Omaha team
 Percy Wilder, another old timer that was here. is going to be man ager of the Jacksonville. tNlorid team. He was one of the leading pitchers Of the league last year and though he may be peach as a pitcher and a frost as a manager but all the Douglas fans wish him good luck
 Nearly everyone knows Chick Gandil, but better known as Arnold. He was scheduled to go with the Chicago Cubs and to receive a sal ary of Sl0,0OG per, but the deal was blocked. Now it is back to the cactus for Chick He batted .3O4 in l3S games for Montreal. Canada, in the Eastern league and fielded .924 for the same number of games. This chap should be watched this coming season, as he is too good a man 10 stay in the bushes The only thing that kept him ont of the big league was d deal with an other player that the Cubs could not pull off without Roger Bresnahan's s consent
 Do you remember Bill Yohe? He Is going to get a try-out with Frisco. Bill should make good with them as he lead the Texas league in batting with .329 for l39 games and stole forty-eight bases He was up once before. being with the Washington American. He has been drifting about the country. Bill is a good sticker as wei las a good fielder but has not the noodle required in the big leagues.
 Bill Harper and Roe Walters will stick with the Southwest Texas team this season. There is a possi- ble chance for Bill to go higher a little later on. as he lead that league with stolen bases. However. there is no chance for Walters. as he is too small for class A company. The fans would like to see both boys make good. but hopes and wishes will not help them whatever in baseball

CALL ID FANS
 RINGS MERELY
et-TOgether Meeting of All Interested in the National Game
 Announced
M NDAY EVENING

A mass meeting of baseball fans will be held at the city hau Monday night at eight o'clock for the purpose of discussing the general situation as regards the game in the southwest, and if these conditions are deemed suspicious a movement will be start ed for organizing a league on the plan of the old Cactus league.
 Fl Paso already has the matter un- der consideration, and the matter is being taken up all over the south west It was feared for a time that the political situation in northern Mexico might interfere with Cananea becoming a party to a baseball pact, but conditions in Sonora have re- sumed their normal aspect, and this objection Is overruled.
 another plan that has been dis. cussed is to leave out Fl Paso and incorporate Bisbee. Douglas. Cananes and Tucson in a league, but Fl Paso crowds have been one of the strong points Of the old league arrangement, and this consideration may mak> it necessary to include that city in any league formed.
 The plan spoken of anticipates the completion Of the Tucson extension of the Fl Paso and SoutTwestern railroad, which will make communi- cation between these towns quicker and less expensive This extension will be completed by August, it is said.
 The sentiment all over the south west is for organized bail, and this sentiment will likely be given a boost at the Monday n/sht meeting. ell masse, Of the baseball fans of the Warren district The meeting will be called to oruer at eight o'clock
