1T is interesting to surmise and

1t could scarcely be an accident. Both

DESTITUTE IN NEW YORK CITY
There Has Been Big Increase During
Recent Months In Demands
for Charity.

There is more poverty and destitu-
tion in New York now than in the last
40 years, according to reports re-
ceived by the Charity Organization
society, says the New York World
Never before in its history has the
society been called upon to help Sc
many families. A few days ago 1t had
2,7S1 families in its care, an increase
of 548 over the same season last year.
During February, 1914, it helped 1873
families, an increase of 642 over Feb
ruary, 1912.
Each month since last October"
said W. Frank Persons, director Of the
society's general work. I'VE have cared
for % to 30 per cent more families
than the year before. The snOwstorm
has brought us families who ordi.
narily would not have to ask for help.
They have been able to Withstand
hard times for weeks, but the pressure
now has become too great.
I'VE expect to have for the next
month an increasing number of such
families as apply for aid. Indications
are that there will be much suffering
from throat and lung diseases, as is
always the case when the snow begins
to melt This will affect day laborers,
drivers and men in other outdoor oc
cupations."

sea would cut down the load to be lift
ed to approximately $4,000 tons, which
would call for $3.50 electro magnets,
representing a dead weight in them
selves Of fully 10000 tons. That Is to
say, that the special pontoons, or cam.
els, must be equal TO providing a total
buoyancy Of good deal more than
$4,000 tons. because the magnets must
be suspended by chains or wire ropes
and here again is an additional load.
IL you are fond OF figures you can
while away your time calculating the
number and the size OF the caissons
which Mr.. Smith would have to use
under the most favorable circum-
stances, and when that conclusion has
been reached you will find some diff.
Guilty in getting anchorage space for
the necessary fleet in New York har-
Dor. II you are at all familiar with the
practical difficulties Of towing you will
realize what IL would mean to convoy
these squadrons to the site of the
wreck and when you have got them
there and have crowded them over the
Titanic's hulk, imagine what would
happen If a storm arose, It will be
seen, therefore that Mr.. Smith has
many difficulties to overcome.
Even If it were possible to recover
the whole or any part of the hulk it
is hard to conceive how the salvers
would have anything but an irrepar-
ably damaged mass. Remember that
If any air pockets or chambers filed
with air survived for a while during
the vessels sinking, they ultimately
were burst in by the increasing hydro
static pressure as the craft plunged
deeper and deeper to her grave. Prob
ably this happened in a large number
OF directions, and thus successfully
the ships steel honeycomb was rup-
tured if not fattened into a veritable
pancake
OF course, Mr. Smith may have an
answer for every point raised; but
even so the salvage Of the Titanic
would in no wise pay for the labor
and the enormous expense involved.
True, an achievement of this sort
would be of the utmost engineering
significance, inasmuch as it would her
aid the feasibility Of dealing with |
treasure ships and other profitable |
wrecks that lie in shallower water. II |
Mr.. Smith can do this latter work he |
will do something well worth while.

SAM DURKEE'S GIRL
BY o. HENRY.

Sam Durkee had a girl. Her name
was Ella Baynes. They appeared to
be devoted to each other, and to have
perfect confidence In each other as all
couples do who are and have or aren't
and haven't, She was ttJerably pretty,
with heavy mass of brown hair that
helped her along, lie introduced me
20 her which seemed not to lessen
her preference for him; so reasoned
that they were surely soul-mates,
Miss Baynes lived in Kingiisher, 20
miles from the ranch, Sam lived on
gallop between the two places,
One uay there came to Kingdsher a
courageous young man, rather small,
with smooth face and regular features.
He made many inquiries about the
business Of the town. and especially Of
the inhabitants cognominally, He said
he was from Nuscogee, and he looked

four-in-hand. met him once when
rode In for the mail. He said his
name was Beverly Travers. which
seemed rather improbable.
one day, when ] was messenger for
half a gross of cigarette.papers and a
couple OF wagon-tires, saw the al
legged Beverly Travers In a yellow
wheeled buggy with Ella Baynes, driv-
ing about town as ostentatiously as
the black. waxy mud would permit

an elongated eX-cowboy Of the name
Of simmons, an old-tlme pal of Sans,
who kept feed store in Kingfisher,
rode out to the ranch and rolled and
burned many cigarettes before he
would talk When he did make ora

Say. Sam, there's been a descrip-
