Federal League contract was made

A message also came from Captain
Oman of the cruiser North Carolina at

word to go SLOW"

to do that by the telegraph lines from

Though Secretary Daniels would
not say so, 1t is generally believed by
navy men here that the second report
Of Captain Decker states specifically
that the cruisers launch was fired up

ton by the Turkish garrison and that

Russ Are Retreatinc.

London, Nov. 20-Operations In the
eastern theater of war continue to
progress favorably for the Germans,
1t is officially announced by the war
office in Berlin, The statement adds
that strategical reasons prevent the
disclosure of movements against the
Russians, but that the victory at
Wloclawec is being followed up. Pc
trograd admitted that the German
forces along the front from the Wis.,
tula to the Warthe had made some
marked advances. General Won Hin
denburg is the hero of the hour in
Berlin, says a dispatch from Copen-
hagen, which adds that the Russian
losses are estimated at $4,000 men.

Gasoline at the Poles.

The Amundsen and Scott expedi-
tons were greatly hindered through
losing much of their gasoline-a loss
that, in fact. had much to do with the
disaster that befell Captain Scott. Mr..
b. T. Brooks of the Mellon Institute
of Industrial Research thinks he
knows what caused the loss. At low
temperatures, he says. ordinary tin
tends to pulverize. At 81 degrees be-
low zero 1t pulverizes quickly and may
pulverize, although more slowly. at a
higher temperature. Now, hard solder
usually contains large percentage OF
tin, and so. of course, disintegrates in
the same way. Consequently the gas
oline cans are likely to leak at the
soldered seams. Mr.. Brooks suggests
that polar explorers carry their sup
plies of gasoline in containers made
of glass, or OF some metal unaffected
by extreme cold.-Youth's Companion.
