The three-cornered match at Boston
Tuesday, which was won by FRANK
Cavanagh, was a very rough aHalr.
Fred Hill and Joe Fogler were Cava-
nagh's opponents, and Fogler is said
70 have suffered the most from the
'.roughousing" At the same meet
Leon Older, of France, took two
heats of a paced match from Elmer
Collins. When beaten in the nrst
heat, the Frenchman rode up along
side of his pacemaker. Nazo, and
swung a corkscrew punch on the lat
ter's jaw. Fearful of a follow-up
punch, Nazo saw to 1t that Older
was the winner in the following heats.

Efforts Of purchasing officers OF the

some food for the enlisted men are
revealed in a special order which Pay
master General Samuel MCGOWAN has
Just issued to the officers and chiefs
in his bureau. In it he declares that
"our men are no poison squad, but
human being and American citizens,
for whom we stand in the relation OF
trustee insofar as relates to the ques-
ton Of food
He announces every effort to try
on the navy any experiments or tests
of any food product whatever shall
be promptly suppressed" As the en-
listed men "haye no choice as to what
they shall eat and because adequate
and satisfactory subsistence is the
very foundation not only Of real eff
cheney, but of discipline itself, there
is nc class of purchases for the naval
service" he says, that need to be
more constantly watched than provi-

CAUGHT BY BLOODHOUNDS.
Three Men Break Down Door and Rob
Lexington Woman Of $3.50.

pAoVs
Three men have been arrested and
are now in the Lexington county jail
on account Of the attack on Mrs. W.
o. Hedgepath, at her home in Peck,
Lexington county, Tuesday night,
when $3.50 was taken away from her
after a desperate fight. The men,
heavily masked and gIoFed, were
breaking through the door when Mrs.
Hedgepath fred a single-barrel shot
gun and before she could close the
breech to fire the second shot the men
had broken through and seized her.
The men, it is said, who committed
the raid, first knocked at the door
about $3.50 o'clock and upon the re-
fusal of Mrs. Hedgepath to open it
threatened to break down the door.
At this time she fired and before she
had time to reload the men were
upon her, demanding money, to
which she replied that she had none.
One account of the robbery states
that one of the men then blew out
the lamp and drew his hashlight and
pistol, which he flaunted in her face
and so frightened her that she reach
ed into her dress, where the money
was. and handed it to the men.
Bloodhounds from the peitentiary
trailed the robbers down in 2 house
a mile away Thsy were arrested.

lister to Belgium, is due credit for
saving the cathedral, art galleries,
churches, theatres. and public build
ings in Antwerp during the recent
German bombardment.
When the German approached
Antwerp Mr.. Whitlock asked their
commander, Gen. Won der Goltz, to
spare the historic buildings. Gen.
Won der Goltz agreed to use his good
Offices if Mr.. Whitlocls would pre-
pare maps for the German aeroplan-
lists that they might direct the firing.
Henry w. Diederich, American con-
sui general, then arranged large
maps on which were indicated points
which it was desired should be avoid
ed by the German shells.
The shooting was so skilful that
the Place Of Justice was the only
large government building struck.
It was slightly damaged. A bomb
struck the front of St. Peters church.
The slight damage done to the city is
considered remarkable in view Of the
three days bombardment.

NEW TORPEDO STATION
GOVERNMENT BUILDING SECOND
PLANT IN PACIFIC.
Torpedoes Now Used Travel 35 Knots
and Carry 800 Pounds of an Tn
known Explosive.

Every effort is being made to plac.
the new Pacific coast torpedo station
at Keyport, Wash, in condition to Dc
work similar to that which is being
done at Newport, R. l., at present the
only station of its kind in the coun
try. According to the navy depart
ment the Keyporr torpedo station
should be ready for work by next
April.
At present if torpedo being tried
out on an American warship in the
Orient becomes disabled in any way
it must be sent to San Francisco and
from there to Newport, r. l., for re.
pairs. This means loss of four OF
FIVE months. The Keyport station
will be used as a trial ground fol
testing torpedoes.
The location, about four miles
from the Puget Sound navy yard at
Bremerton, Wash, is said to be al
most ideal, the water being deep,
with few vessels passing. The gov
ernment has bought tract Of eighty
eight acres for the station.
Until a short time ago the navy
used torpedves Of the Whitehead
type, but the modern weapon is much
more powerful and has range of five
or six miles. It .iso carries much
heavier charge Of explosive-300
pounds.
The explosive is known to few even
in the navy 1t is contained in what
is known as the "war head" which
is screwed and bolted to the larger
section of the torpedo, the part that
carries the propelling apparatus.
In trials the war head is filled with
water. Even then If running at full
speed it probably would drive
through any ordinary steel plate. The
total weight is over a ton, and its
speed varies from twenty-five knots
at long range to thirty-6ve knots at
a short distance.
By means of a gyroscope in its
it may be launched from
the stern tubes of a ship to attack an
enemy almost directly ahead. The
torpedo will leave the tube and start
astern, but when fifty yards
away it will turn an angle Of ninety
degrees and thus change its direction

BOND ISSUE KILLED.
Not Voted on in Many Counties
Vote Cast Was Against 1t.

Reports from various parts Of the
State show that a very light vote was
polled Tuesday. The situation in re-
gard to the proposed cotton bond
issue Of S24, 100000 was q hopeless
mess. Apparently the question was
voted upon at only small percentage
of the polling precincts, in some
counties not at all. The election is a
nullity, of course. In some Of the
counties the election commissioners
did not attempt distribution Of the
ballots and in others the ballots
reached the precincts after the polls
had opened.
