CREW OF SINKING SHIP

Six Days in Open Boat.

All hands were ordered to the pumps,
but on January 3, according to the story
told by Mate A. II. Strong the boat
began to sink by the head. The order
was given to take to the lifeboats. and
the crew of ten clambered in. Before
they could lower away the ship plunged
down head foremost, and the lifeboat by
lucky accident unlocked itself from

A Double Success.
From the Pittsbury Dispatch.

From the PIttsbury D1STatch.
When that Rockefeller million was
given to fight the hookworm in the South
it was not expected that the battle would
be easily won, if won at all. And some
of the Southern residents were inclined
not only to scoff at but to repudiate the
gift. The State Board of Health of Ken
lucky now, however, reports that the
hookworm epidemic which had affected
%. 600 people in that State is now under
control. Further, that the treatment
seems to be also benefit TO those who
have been attacked by the mysterious
pellagra. In fact, the scientists and ply
sicians believe they have made such in
roads on both diseases as to be able to
predict the ultimate stamping out of both.
In one county. Knox, total of l.l59
cases were examined for hookworm and
half of this number were found to be in
fected. Free dispensaries were maintain
ed in connection with laboratories and,
as showing the success, at Union College
laboratory of $50 treated only 16 were
found to be cured.
The eradication of these malignant dis
eases, which threatened to increase stead
lily through lack of proper treatment is
certainly cheap at a million. The speedy
discovery of the double cure for hook
worm and pellagra is one of the most re-
markable results of a specific donation
that has come to notice.

STEEL TRUST PLANS
DISSOLVE ITSELF
Corporation Not Going to Take
Chances on Prosecution BY
Wilson Administration.

Pittsburg. Pa, Jan. s-The United
States Steel Corporation, according to
authentic reports here. win voluntarily
segregate its subsidiaries and make un-
necessary the government prosecution
started under the Sherman act This
plan Is said to have been discussed this
week at a meeting of steel officials in
New York City. It is said the recent
utterance OF Gov. Wilson relative to
great combinations and his intimation
that men in big business must adopt a
new code Of ethics have made 1t plain
that the Democratic President will not
be more Ienient toward the trusts than
were Roosevelt and Taft.
The principal cause for fear is said to
be that the government IL II goes through
with the steel corporation prosecution
will be more drastic than the Standard
OIL and the Tobacco Trust. II is the
reported intention of the steel corpora
tion officials to come to a satisfactory
understanding with Washington to re-
organize under a plan that will have
federal approval

The Ways of the Burro.

From the Denver Republican
Get a prospector started telling you
stories about his burro, and he will con.
vince you that the animal is gifted be-
yond all other animals. Beneath his i'm
passive exterior there lurk springs of love
and trust. On a tramping trip he is a
companion that outdoes Stevenson's DON
key. Unlike the perverse bearer of the
worldly goods Of r. l.. S, the burro is
gifted with A sense of humor Not a
thing in camp will he touch in daytime
In the glare of the sun he is innocence
itself. But when night comes he will
strip the towels from the branches and
the paper from the grub boxes, unless
you are wakeful enough to hear and
drive the sly rascal away. He loves
home, and not all the Great Divide will
keep him from his master at the old
ranch if a burro makes up his mind to
quit new owner. He never knows the
luxury of a nosebag full of oats, because
there is a tradition in the West that he
is a great rustler, and he must needs
prove it by cropping his own living, no
matter how scant the herbage. The
smaller he is, the more certain ii is that
he will be chosen to carry a fat woman
TO the top of Pixies Peak The homelier
he is. the surer will cameras be focused
on his patient features. He is abused by
the Mexican pinon wood sellers of the
Southwest, and he is spoiled by the va
cation children who make merry in the
pines Of Colorado.

At the Cabaret show.

From the East Side Magazine.
For a few moments the orchestra with
dulcet wall of cello and violin held the
attention of those at the tables, then the
Cabaret singer stepped out upon the soft
red carpet.
Against the mirrored wall at small
table sat a young chap with his wife.
The eyes of his wife followed his quick,
admirinS glances at the singer.
She began to sing Daddy" sweeping
the crowd with her long, soft glance,
selecting her victim for the chorus.
She advanced toward the couple. She
stood by the husband, pressed her rosy
perfumed cheek upon his hair and began
to sing.
The young wife flushed crimson as she
watched her husband in this delicate en-
brace, the crowd applauded; and the
Cabaret singer, leaving him, went from

Behind the temple sacred TO the name
less dead and close to the wrestling
amphitheater in Tokyo. there is to be
found the grave of the celebrated rob-
ber Nezumi Kozo. who stole from the
daimyOs in the old Yedo days that he
might relieve the sufferings OF the poor.
There is superstition connected with
this grave which has made ii a much
frequented spot. II a piece of the head
stone is carried away, it acts as a lucky
talisman, particularly TO those who spec
ulate or are otherwise engaged in games
of chance. 1t is usual for a person
breaking a piece from the stone to make
vow that in case he is successful he
will buy A new headstone to replace the
one he has mutilated.
Many prayers must have been an
swered. for the stones are piled high
on either side of the grave, and an en-
terprising individual near by has the
stones already for sale and only waiting
the name of the donor to be engraved
and then set up.
shelter has been placed over the
spot. and from the roof hang gay lam
terms and pilgrims banners. A large
money box catches all the stray sen
which go TO the upkeeping of the grave.
Gamblers and geisha are often visitors
Students before their examination feel
more assured of success if they have a
chip of Nezumi KoZo's headstone in the
sleeves of their kimonos.

'ORGANIzATIONOF
HYGIENE BODY
Intention to Increase Board Of
Directors with Women's
Names Caused Delay.
MORE THAN $50 ATTEND
Surg. Gen. Stokes viii Probably Be
the First President to
Be Elected.

The organization of the Society for
Social Hygiene that was to have been
launched last night at a meeting in the
willard failed because of a motion that
the number of directors be increased to
ADMIT OF the addition of a number of
women's names at the time the tents-
i've slate was offered for the election of
oncers. The election and permanent
organization of the society will take place
81 latter meeting, IL was said last
night.
The meeting was well attended, and
there were fully 80 people in the room
when DIR. Tom A. Williams, chairman
OF the organization committee. stepped
forward with the slate of officers that
had been made up by the committee
II contained the names of eighteen per-
sons for election, but of that number
only six were women. Mai W. Owens
offered an amendment that the number
OF officers be increased TO thirty and
that half Of the number be made I'D OF
women.
This amendment did not meet with
favor with DIR. Williams, who said that
coming as the delegate Of the commit
tee he had no right to accept this amend
ment. After some argument ii was de-
cided that the meeting would have to
be postponed and called at another date
within the next two weeks for the perma-
nent organization.
The slate that was proposed last night
and which most of the delegates assert
will be put into office without change
except for the addition of number of
women's names is as follows:
