GIANT IMPERATOR
SWERT BY FIRE.
Officer Killed Fighting Flames
on Largest Steamer.
PANIC IN The STEERAGE
Worlds Greatest Passenger Vessel Is
Badly Damaged Before Flames Are
Subdued.

The giant steamship Imperator of
the Hamburg-American line, the larg-
est. vessel now ahoat, was swept by
fire on Thursday while moored TO her
dock on the Hoboken, N j., water
front, and damage to her second and
main saloon deck will amount to thou
sands of dollars. Her crew and 1131
Storage passengers were aboard
The fire started in the provisions
room, and its origin is unknown, al
though officers of the vessel believe
detective insulation of electric wires
may have been the cause. The Impera-
tor arrived from Europe only We'd
nesday. -.
A thousand longshoreen, employed
by the neutrality-suspicious. line, went
out on strike Monday, and they were
supplaEtod with non-uniGn workers.
The officials of the line, however, do
not give credence TO the theory that
the fire might have ben of incendiary
origin, prompted by the controversy
between them and their former en-
ployes. The loss Is placed at $360,000.
The great ship was dark, with all
on board asleep save the officers on
watch, when smoke, ascending from
the provision room, was discovered
by a seaman on deck
watch and petty officer upon the
bridge. Almost at the same moment
the cracking of the flames was heard
in the steerage quarters.
At least one man lost his life In the

AT The Kimmel.

For obvious reasons the new
vaudeville bill which began yester
day at the Kimmel for the first hale
of the week is well balanced and
likeable.
San Barton, who claims booking
over the orpheum time. is the top
liner and he has some act One IL
prone to believe that when he first
comes out he is to attempt nothing
else but ridiculous antics. He sus-
tains that first impression, for that
is the keynote of his act. He gets
laughs outtof a bicycle where every
one else gets punctures. He is
ridiculous to the extreme and the
pantomime auietude of his stunt
convulses his audience with laugh
ter. He whirls around consecutive
ly on a bicycle and several unicycles
with careless regard and the
audience applauds with admiration
both at his daring and his foolish
ness. The act is SO different from
the usual of its kind and a keen
observer readily sees why Martin
Beck has given it a booking on his
exclusive 0rpheum circuit.
A set of silver bamboo chimes and
their skillful playing stamps the
second act, presented by Leo St.
Elmo. a German musical genius, a
real gem in its particular sphere.

a patient in DR. Bonds Sanitarium,
in Yonkers, will, it is believed,
within a few weeks have completely
recovered his health.
Until very recently he had all
sorts of hallucinations. At one
time he imagined birds were singing
upon his shoulder, and at another
period he feared somebody was try
ing to poison his food. He also had
a delusion that enemies were spying
upon him, and whenever he had
anything to say TO DR.. Bond or the
nurses he would speak in whispers
lest his foes know his business.
For the past two weeks these at
tacks have become less frequent,
and since last Thursday he has had
no delusions of any description, so
far as the nurses are aware, His
interest in the affairs Of the outside
world increases daily and he is read
ing the newspapers more than ever
now.
He is also having a great deal to
say about the manner in which his
