THIS STORY is UP TO DATE
Electric Creatures Besiege Ship in
Gulf Stream, Sailors Assert on
Reaching Port.

Boston.-A remarkable story is told
by the crew of the British freighter
Rochelle. According to stories by sew
eral Of the men, the delay was due
principally to electric fishes, otherwise
known as torpedo fishes, which were
attracted by the steel plates Of the
vessel, and fastened themselves by
hundreds against her bottom and
sides.
The steamer was in the Gulf Stream,
north Of Cuba, when she began to slow
down. The officers were unable to ex-
plain the change in the progress of the
craft. Several sailors said they felt a
tingling sensation about their feet and
finger tips. The steamer was held
back strangely. Members of the crew
became alarmed. A sailor looked over
the side and says 1t was plastered with
strengthening fishes. They were two
or three thick along the port side I'M
der water. The starboard side also
was covered.
AS the Rochelle moved north and
got out of the warm waters of the
stream the fishes dropped off and the
vessel resumed her speed.

Skinny.

A contributor to the American Mag
azine tells the following story:
"A clerk in one of the great jewelry
stores on Fifth avenue in New York
City exhibited to a rich and weary
customer a lady's handbag, five inches
square, made of platinum and fairly
well covered on one side only with
diamonds. The price was $4,000. The
fact that one side only was covered
with diamonds troubled the customer
Turning the handbag around and
around, and looking at it from all
sides over and over, he finally said,
Very pretty-really. But l don't like
one side without diamonds. Honestly
the thing looks skinny rather skim

GETTING "PEG-ToP" EFFECT
New Model of Taffeta Shows How the
Desired Result Is Possible of
Achievement.

When the fiounced gown first came
back, few months since, it managed
to keep quite fiat by permitting no
fulness in the fiounces. 1t is very diff
ferent now, for there Is plenty of full
ness in all of them, but chiefly in the
one Immediately below the waist.
A new model of this kind is in
green taffeta with seven flounces on
the skirt and an eighth formed by the
basque of the body, very full and fluffy.
The bodice opens in a deep square,
outlined by narrow black velvet, which
is tied in bow at the waist with long,
flying ends. The throat is bare, q
Medici collar rising at the back.
A founced gown for evening wear
Is made of silk crepon in delicate
tone of mauve, with a deep belt of
mauve, pale blue and silver broche.
The skirt is of the peg-top order, and
is wide enough at the hem to admit Of
dancing comfortably. The peg-top eff
feet is produced by three founces be-
tween hips and knees.

supplied ~ith her "knockabout" hat it
is time to plan her bonnet for best
wear. The loveliest hats are devel-
oped of transparent materials, such as
net, point d'esprit or shadow lace, ar
ranged over wire foundatio2. The
latter can be purchased at eny shop
where millinery is sold, and the wires
should be wrapped with strips of silk
before covering with the tulle.
An extremely dainty model is a
quaint Dutch bonnet suggesting the
lace caps worn by the Vollendam

this arranged the covering of dotted
tulle. The crown Is shirred at inter-
walls, and the brim is edged with a
tiny frill. Two clusters of small flow
ers in tones Of pale blue, pink and
mouve trim the brim About the
crown is drawn a ruching of lace.
A very lovely little hat can easily
be duplicated. The brim is slightly
mushroom, and the foundation is Gov
cred with pale pink silk. The dotted
tulle is then shirred on cords and fit

row lace softens the line at the edge

band Of nattier-blue ribbon drawn
about the crown and tied in fat bow
at the side. A single rose is placed
on the brim at the left side.

BLOODY DEEDS DONE.

Ulua in the harbor. Learning that he
soon was to be ordered to evacuate,
the commander hauled his heavy guns
to the city side of the fortress and
fired into the town until all his am
munition was expended. No building
in the place was unchanged. So
great was the havoc that it was with
difficulty that the lines of the streets
were re-established AS there was no
warning of such action. the inhabi-
tants were forced to flee to the sand
dunes which surround the city, after
the hail of solid shot had begun.
Trails of blood led from the choked
gates of the ill-starred town.
In 1888 the French bombarded the
place.
In 1847 General Scott favored the
Veracrusanos with a terrible bonn
bardment.
In 1859 Benito Juarez was besieged
in Vera Cruz by the troops of Max
imilian.
In 1861 the French fleet again took
the place.
During the revolutionary period,
which was almost continuous previous
to the opening of the regime of Por-
f1rio Diaz, this port and it's revenue
always were detectives. During the
Madero revolution, for the first time,
a period of ci5il strife passed, during
which Vera Cruz was unmolested.

EYE STRAIN
Relieved by Quitting Coffee.

Many cases Of detective vision are
caused by the habitual use of coffee.
1t is said that in Arabia where cof-
fee is used in large quantities, many
lose their eyesight at about fifty. Tea

coffee
A N. J. woman writes to the point
concerning eye trouble and coffee.
She says:
My son was for years troubled with
his eyes. He tried several kinds Of
glasses without relief. The optician
said there was defect in his eyes
which was hard to reach.
He used to drink coffee, as we all
did, and finally quit it and began to
use Postum. That was three years
ago and he has not had to wear
glasses and has had no trouble with
his eyes since.
I was always fond of tea and coffee
and finally became so nervous / could
hardly sit still long enough to eat a.
meal. My heart was in such con-
dition I thought I might die at any
time.
Medicine did not give me relief
and was almost desperate. 1t was
about this time we decided to quit cot
fee and use Postum, and have used it
ever since. / am in perfect health.
No trouble now with my heart and
never felt better in my life.
Postum has been a great blessing
