A surveying ship of the German
navy has recently discovered the
deepest known spot in the ocean. It
is near the Philippines. about 40 sea
miles of the north coast of Mindanao.
Great depths were found to be
numerous in this region. but the rec
ord sounding showed the amazing re-
suit of $3.50 meters. or 406 feet more
than six miles.
The greatest ocean depth hitherto
known was found by the United
States cable steamer Nero IN 1901.
This spot was to the south of the
Island of Guam. and the deep sea land
indicated 9.635 meters--just o little
less than six miles.

MRS. AVA WILLING ASTOR IN LONDON

Mrs. Ava Willing Aston is In Lon
don again looking younger and more
festive than ever. She is wearing
charming neutral tints, presumably
for the late millionaire. her divorced
husband, who went down In the IT,
tanic. 1t Is considered very good
taste on the part OF Mrs. Aston to do
this, for there were very few women
who would have marked that sad
event In the circumstances. Those
who know her best, however, say that
In her heart of hearts she was very
fond Of the dead man. though after
the divorce she tried to hide the fact
that her pride was so wounded.
Like few other smart Ameri-
cans in town she went promptly to
see the Connaughts, but It appears
she got further than the rest, as she
was admitted to the bedroom Of the
duchess. There is the greatest ex-
citement as to whether her son. VIM

summer. 1t Is said his mother has a
