Queenstown, May 81 The Ameri-

sailed Wednesday from Liverpool for
Philadelphia with 134 cabin and $50
steerage passengers aboard, went on
the rocks westward of Cork's Head

dense fog.
The wireless again demonstrated it's
efficiency. BY its aid what might
have been a disaster was converted
into mere accident. Within a few
minutes the ship was in communica.

and needs were explained First aid
in the form Of great tugs, which ply
between the port and passing liners
with passengers and mails, were go

scene of the accident. Thus the
stranded vessel in short time was
surrounded by small fleet.
There was considerable anxiety
aboard the American liner as she was
shrouded in the densest fog, but there
was nothing resembling a panic. The
officers, however, wasted no time and
had 400 Of the passengers board the
tugs before the Hellespont and Storm

took off the remainder. The transfer
was made in perfect order. The cap

liam j. Bryan made their first appeal
to him when the Omaha Real Estate
exchange, one of the leading CONNER

is too high, and want che minimum
at $4,000 or less.

horse and followed the other rig to
the zinc company's mine, where they
turned the money over to officials The

MAY Have Been Miners.

Streator, Ill.-That the bandits were
miners, familiar with the system Of
paying at the zinc plant is the opinion
of the police. TO confirm this sus-
picion, the officers point to the fact
that the robbers apparently knew the
paymaster and his ASSISTANTS and there
fore covered their faces to prevent
recognition.

President Wilson issued the following
statement concerning the passage OF the
Tariff bill by the Senate
IA fight for the people and for free
business which has lasted long genera
ton through has at last been won, hand
somely and completely.
"a leadership and a steadfastness in
counsel has been shown in both houses
OF which the Democratic party has reason
10 be very proud. There has been no
weakness or confusion or drawing back,
but statesmanlike drectness and COM
mand OF circumstances.
81 am happy TO have been connected
with the government Of the nation al a
time when such things could happen, and
10 have worked in association with men
who could do them.
There is every reason 10 believe that
currency reform will be carried through
with equal energy, directness, and loyalty
TO the general interest. When that Is
done this first session OF the Sixiy-third
Congress will have passed into history
with an unrivaled distinction.

doubtless, how any one could decline

Weight Of The Average Heart.

The weight OF the average persons
heart is only eleven ounces, yet so pow
erful is it that il does enough work every
day to lift l20 tons foot high.
The heart is, in fact, one OF the most
wonderful power machines for its size in
existence. 1t beats about seventy times
a minute, and with every beat drives six
ounces of blood through the body.
in year the heart beats 10000, ,OOO
times and drives more than 5000 tons OF
blood through the body. ThreeScore
years and ten is a mans lifetime, and
during that time his heart has moved
enough blood to outweigh half dozen OF
the biggest ships in the world!
A pint ofblood weighs roughly pound,
so that little more than three gallons OF
blood are forced through the heart every
minute, or more than 100000 gallons a
year.

The Floor of The Atlantic.

If the hills of the earth were used to
fill in all the valleys, we should have a
world as smooth as billiard ball, COM
pletely covered with an ocean $500 feet
deep. That depth is called the "mean
sphere level" The Atlantic Ocean has
an average depth that differs little from
that level, for, compared with the other
great oceans, it has an unusually large
area Of comparatively shallow water.
First comes the shelflike continental
Slope;" then follows, at much lower level,
a vast plain of uniform, dull grayish buff
color, flat and featureless as the desert,
unmarked except by an occasional rock
or wreck, or recently laid cable. This
plain continues with hardly break until
ii reaches the great mid-Atlantic ridge
that extends from Iceland as far south as
50 degrees south latitude, and that roughly
biSectS the ocean. The ridge runs almost
parallel with the eastern contour OF North
and South America contour that, in
turn, corresponds roughly with the west
ern contour of Europe and Africa. Occa-
sionally the ridge raises above the surface.
The Azores, ST. Paul's ROCK, Ascension
Island, the Island OF Tristan da Cunha and
the Cough Islands are all part OF ii.
