Announcement is made by Marcus a.
Dow. general safety agent OF the Ne"

Tsing-Tao In Flames From Shells.
Toxic, Nov. 2.-Ofhcial advices re
ceived here show that desperate
battle is being waged at Tsing-Tao
For miles the sea reflects the flames
from burning ship yards, gas reser'
voirs and houses that have been set
on fire by shells from the japanese
and British warships and land artil
lery which are covering the advances
of the infantry.
The Germans, strongly entrench.
ed, are resisting fiercely. Fort Iltis
has been damaged. 1t is officially an.
nounced that most of the German
forts have been silenced, only two re
plying persistently to the attack by
land and sea. Fort STA Chanfhan was
set on fire. A German gunboat which
lost its funnel in the fight disappeared
and probably has sunk.
A wireless message received in Ger.
man circles in Pekin from Tsing-Tao
says that the naval bombardment of
the German position in Kiao-Chau be.
gan on Sunday, but makes no mention
of land attack. On the other hand, a
Japanese report says that both "a land
and naval attack are now being push.
ed against the German position.
For several weeks the Germans
had been maintaining a heavy artil.
lery fire in their attempts to delay
the work of intrenching and gun
mounting by their adversaries, but
this fire was eventually proved to be
nnavailing.

ROCKEFELLER MILLIONS
FOR WAR VICTIMS
Ship Loaded With foodstutts
Ready to Sail

New York, Nov. 1.-THE Rockefeller
Foundation, through its president,
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., made known
its determination to do everything In
its power for the relief of non-com-
batants in the European war.
To this end, Mr.. Rockefeller says
In a statement issued over his name,
no exertion will be spared and mil
lions of dollars, If necessary, will be
spent.
Already a steamer, the Massage
qua, has been chartered to sail with
all speed with foodstuffs for the use
of the starving Belgians. 1t is men
toned that the supplies now being
slowed away in the hold of this big
steamer mark an initial expenditure
of $275,000. The Massapequa will sail
from New York tomorrow. Other
steamers laden with food and other
supplies are to follow quickly.
The Foundation has announced its
decision to succer the starving and
helpless non-combatants only after a
careful survey of the situation and
the discovery that never in recent
history has a condition Of such mis-.
cry and hardship presented itself to
any philanthropic institution.

Hardly had Rose had time to COM

Barcus was over the side and wres-

farther upon the shoals.
She was, however, more than one
man could manage; and when her
stem had bitten little more deeply
into the sands, Barcus gave over the
attempt and, lifting Rose down, set
her on dry land, then climbed back into
the vessel, rummaged out her anchor
and cable, and carried them ashore,
planting the former well up towards
the foot of the cliff.
And as he rose from this last labor
he was half blinded by the glare of the
westerng sun as it broke through the
fog.
In less than five minutes the miracu-

out discovering a sign of him.
And for the next twenty minutes
he divided his attention between at
tempts to soothe and reassure the
half-distracted girl and efforts to
educe reply from Alan by stentorlan
haiIing-with' as little success in the
one as in the other.
Alan he shrieked at the top Of
his lungs. Alan! Give a hail to tell
us you're safe!'
There was a little pause; he was
racking his brains for some more NOV

came in another voice-in the voice
OF Judith Urine, clear, musical, effer-
vescent with sardonic humor:
BE at peace, little one-bleat no
more! Mr.. Law is with us-and safe

In dumb CONSERVATION Barcus
sought the countenance of Rose. Her
eyes, meeting his, were blank with
despair. He shook his head helplessly
and let his hands dangle idly between
his knees.
With no way on her, the lifehoat
drifted with a current of unknown set
and strength.
