About two months ago she under

ment. As o o as she gained sufIi-
cient strength following the opera
tion she was brought home in a spe-
cial sleeping car since which time she
has been tenderly cared for by hus-
band, daughters and nurses. She
steadily failed in strength and while
at times there was brightness in her
condition her family could not hope
for ultimate recovery. During all
the weeks of her illness she retained
her mental faculties to a remarkable
extent, and though feeble and worn
out she was fully conscious apparent
ly at the moment of death.

AUTO HUNTING CAMP
IN THE MAINE WOODS

One of the most unique hunting par
ties that will enter the Maine woods
this fall, will be that made up of Free
man N. Young of Arlington, Roy Faye
of Boston, and DR.. Albret H. futile
of Boston. They will come by automo-
bile
This does not seem to be much out
of the ordinary, but this auto is prob
ably the only one of its kind in exist
ence, for 1t is in reality a camp on
wheels, and all the comforts of home
can be enjoyed while the machine is
going. The arrangements in this
house on wheels are the idea of Mr..
Young. who had the machine built to
order for this trip.
When arranged for travelling the ma
chine does not look much different
from any other machine, with the eX-
ception of the seats, which are wide
and high backed
In making a hunting trip in this
manner, the hunters need not bother
to make a town or pitch a tent for
the night, for they will have every
thing with them and will be able to
pass the night anywhere they happen
to stop.
By an ingenious arrangement when
camp is to be pitched, the side cur
tains can be fastened on or the outfit
left open. A compartment in the rear

is thus slid out. This is fastened by
straps to heavy bar. which is drawn
up and braced, and thus two beds are
formed in the rear of the machine.
The seats can be laid fiat and the
two more beds. The mattresses for
the beds in the rear are filed with
air. so that in the day time while
travelling these can be folded up and
tucked into small compartment.
In front on the radiator is a table
like arrangement. and on this the dogs
will ride.
By the use of long rods a canvas
can be stretched over the machine, so
that a tent eight feet In diameter, can
be thus formed, adding more protec-

Along with the rest of the outfit is
carried a cook stove with all the uten-
sils so arranged that all can be folded
and tucked inside the stove, even the
smoke-pipe folding up like a telescope
and fitting inside the oven.
The privacy of a hame can be had
by lowering a curtain between the rear
beds and those of the main section of
the car and each party can have his
own compartment.
The party will go to Eastport, for
their first stop and from there make a

BRITISH ISLES

London, Oct. Sis A. MIN a dis
patch from The Hague the correspond
eat OF the Daily Express says that
German newspapers reaching there
indicate that Count Zeppelin is now at
Nilhelmshaven on the North Sea with
his staff. Wilhelmshaven is the point
from which the great air raid on the
British Isles is to start. One of these
pa pers publishes an interview with
the count in which he is counted as
saying that he had not forgotten Eng
land and would prove it very soon.
1t is also reported, the correspond
ent of the Express continues, that
Count Zeppelin was summoned recent

Majesty said to the count that he re-
lied on him for a great work, and Of

smilingly refused, but said he would
accept the title when he returned from
England.
The Zeppelin stats are working day
and night at Wilhelmshaven and an
other station is being established at
Emden for other types of airships.
