Manufacturers have learned that the
efficiency of their employees depends
to a great extent upon having a prop
err light to work by and have not hes
itated to enlist the services of an
electrical engineer and have their
plants fully equipped with plants that
would be adequate for their needs.
Hotel men have seen the necessity
for more and better light and are
invariably installing electric plants
where it is impossible to obtain SER
vice from a central station. Hotels
at summer resorts are especially &C.
tive to get adequate light for their
guests because their patrons are most
ly from the city and they expect city
cOnveniences.
The new hotel at Moclips which is
being built by Mr.. McCammon, is be-
ing equipped throughout with electric
lights. These will be supplied with
current from a plant consisting of a
gas engine, a dynamo and storage
battery located on the premises.
The Aberdeen Electric company
are installing the plant at the new
hotel at Moclips and are prepared to
do all kinds Of electrical work in
thoroughly efficient manner.

WATER HIGH AT PITTSBURGH
Rivers Go Three Feet Above Flood
Stage-Business interests Warned.

Pittsburgh, FEB. Close to twenty
five feet was the high water mark
registered by the swollen rivers here
this noon. This is three feet above
flood stage.
Baltimore and Ohio railroad trains
abandoned the Allegheny station be-
cause of the high water and all of
lower Allegheny is under water.
The wharfs presented busy scene
this morning. TOwbo2ts piled here
and there, signaling in the fog that
rose from the water, and making coal
fleets ready to ride south on the crest
OF the flood.
The flood warning started great ac-
tivity among the business houses near
the river fronts. Employees were busy
removing merchandise and other
goods from Easements as many of tn
downtown buildings adjacent to the
rivers become filed with water
through the sewers at twenty-five feet.

Sailing of Ships Suspended.

London, Feb. What is regarded
here as the new German policy of a
submarine blockade of British ports
is temporarily effectual at least in the
case of Belfast, where sailings have
been suspended. The Liverpool au-
thorities, however, announce that no
interruption in the trade of that port
is contemplated.
A message received from Southport
says that a German submarine, sup
posedly the U-21, was seen off there.
Southport is seaside resort of Eng
land in the Irish sea, eighteen miles
north of Liverpool.
The two British merchant steam
ers torpedoed by the Germans off
Havre are the largest commercial yes
sells that have as yet fallen victims
to German submarines; the three
ships sunk in the Irish sea were all
small coasters.
The belief that the raider could not
remain for more than a few hours in
waters so far removed from his base
has been exploded by the news that
the mail steamer Leinster encoun-
tered German submarine off Dublin
on Sunday, twenty-fcur hours after
the sinking of the three coasters.
Therefore it would seem probable that
the raider renewed his supplies of
food and fuel from the coaster Linda

WANTS DACIA, NOT CARGO
English Government Will Send Cotton
Promptly to Rotterdam.

London, Feb. 1.-The announcement
that the former Hamburg American
line steamship Dacia had sailed from
Galveston with cargo of cotton for
Germany caused much comment in
London, where it was generally be.
lieved that the Dacia incident had
been closed.
Granting that the Dacia tries to
reach Rotterdam, she unquestionably
will be taken by British warships into
an English port where her cargo of
cotton Immediately will be reloaded
on a waiting vessel. 1t will then be
sent promptly to Rotterdam at the
expense OF the British government,
thus preventing loss to her owners.
1t is the general impression here
that the Dacia is certain to go into a
prize court to test the validity of her
transfer from German to American
registry.

soldiers; bands play. soldiers march,
cavalry parade, elephants, camels and
trick mules JOIN the procession. 1t is
simply marvellous. To see this play is
we'll worth the expense of a trip to
New York. 1t is one of the greatest
sights of the great Metropolis. There
was nothing offensive, it was a clean
enjoyment and educational as we'll as
