try by protest against what he char

by irresponsible and inspired sources.
arrangements should be made at once
in every branch of the organization for
the collecting of funds to be at the dis
posal of the executive committee of the
national organization wherever or when
ever the same can be used to the best
advantage for the protection of the good
German name everywhere.
Blood Thicker Than Water.
"It ia now time to show without dis
tinction of personality or opinion that
the words blood is thicker than water
have also a meaning for those OF German
blood and extraction"

CLYDE LINE STEAMER
IS CHASED BY WARSH|P
Freighter's Captain Tells of Shots
Across Bow That Scared
Crew.

PHILADELPHIA, August 1O.-Captain,
crew and negro cook were still in some
what nervous condition when the Pawnee
Of the Clyde line docked here yesterday.
They had been as close as they wish
to being blown out of the water by the
dreadnought Florida and the torpedo
boat destroyer Drayton
Saturday night about o'clock Capt
Rich headed his ship toward the outer
New York harbor. The negro cook had
food box in the pantry and had gone
on deck for whiff of air Moored near
the Narrows was the Florida, her, decks
alive with white-clad sailors. The skip
per of the Pawnee, like all good sailors,
gave the Florida wide berth. The cook
waved to the sailor boys aboard Uncle
Sans fighting machine. but probably, in
the dusk of the evening, was not seen.
Then the Florida focused its powerful
searchlight on the Pawnee. A moment
later a shot from one of it's guns went
over the Pawnees bow.
Skipper Ignorant of Rule.
''That's fine," mused Capt. Rich. He
didn't think the shot was intended to
halt him. The Pawnee's quartermaster
held his course. and a second shot from
tho Florida tipped across the bow.
The negro cook has no fear of sen
storm, and cares not a whit for reckless
chauffeurs when he's on shore leave
but when those solid shot went singing
across the ships nose the deck ceased
to have any attraction for him. He re-
tired to the galley.
About that time Capt. Rich saw black
smoke curling from the smokestacks of
the Drayton, which soon speeded down
the Narrows in the Pawnee's wake
Capt. Rich decided then and there that
his little 1.20O-ton ship would not be pass
ed by the audacious craft manned by
gentlemen with white duck uniforms and
patent leather shoes.
Chased for Five Miles.
It was a nice little chase for five miles,
and when the DTayton overhauled the
Pawnee Capt. Rich was ordered to go
about and comply with the new port
regulations, that every outgoing vessel
must pass near the Florida and make
known her identity. The PaWnee com
piled with the regulation.
Uncle Sam is taking no chances on
contraband or European reservists being
shipped from New York.
