icebergs and Sea Water.

That the temperature Of sea water
rises slightly near an iceberg, as one
man of science has asserted, is a con-
clusion not borne out by the investiga-
tions Of the bureau of standards. Dur
ing the summer patrol Of the United
States steamships Chester and Bir-
mfngham in the North Atlantic, mem
bers of the staff of the bureau took au-
tomato records of the temperature of
the water. The records show that
changes Of temperature in the sea far
from tcebergs are at least as great
and sudden as the changes near them,
and that they do not point to the
presence of icebergs. They find also
that an iceberg more often lowers than
raises the temperature of the water
near 1t. These conclusions are iden-
tfcal with those arrived at by the OBJ
servers on the Scotia, which was sent
out to the Newfoundland banks by the
British Board Of Trade in the summer
of 1913, except that they more often
observed small rises of temperature in
the neighborhood of icebergs-Yosth's

Unhappy Bulgaria.

1t was not until 1885 that eastern
Roumelia revolted from Turkish rule
and united with Bulgaria, and it was
not until October, 1908, that Prince
Ferdinand proclaimed Bulgaria an in
dependent kingdom. Thirty years
passed after the Bulgarian war for
independence before their freedom
was officially recognized in Europe.
Virile, laborious, thrifty, persevering,
courageous, and anxious for progress,
the Rulgarians are daring to dream
great dreams for their little country,
and today, as ever, their immediate
future seems to be- beset by all man
uer of difficulties.

When the eases against Peter j. Ford,
charged with violating the city building
law by erecting porches beyond the
building line, were taken mp in City

Norwegian Steamer TOrpedOed;
Germans Enforce the Blockade
Both Under Sea and in the Air

Indicating the acceptance by the
British Government that the German
menace is real ono is the discour-
aging of all passenger travel TO the
continent. Passports and permission
to sail arc withheld and a number Of
the regular cross-channcl sailings
have been cancelled. although mail
and cargo vessels are still in SER
vice
All OF the advices received here in
dicatc that the German blockade is
enforced from the air and under sea
and that the German feet is not par
ticipating. Zeppelins are patrolling
The North Sea and watching for vcs-
sells with cargoos OF foodstuffs. Fol-
lowing the holding up Of the Dutch
steamer Helena by a Zeppelin which,
after ascertaining the identity Of the
steamer signalled Il to pass on, came
reports today that other Ieppelins
have been sighted in the air. II Is
believed here that they arc scouting
and that they have a general plan
whereby they can signal approach of
steamers to the various secret Ger
man submarine bases.
iNlN Is iili UlNi llliil Will AAt "a
ception Of the abortive raid along the
British coast. that the Zeppelins have
actually been real factors in the war
operations. II is generally believed
that not only will they be used as
scouts. but that another visitation can
be expected from them at the first
favorable opportunity
That such a raid is expected is in
dicated by the extreme precautions
taken in all of the coast cities. Anti
air craft guns have been mounted al
many points and double crews are IN
attendance at all times. Further pre-
cautions in connection with the dis.
playing OF lights are being taken.
Although the German threats have
intimated that the blockade will be
general. officials we're today inclined
to the belief that few of the German
under sea boats would venture out o
the Channel and the North Sea. They
/ believe that the Liverpool shipping Is
in no particular danger, despite th'
/ fact that German submarines alread,
have made the Irish Sea.
Further losses of ships are expected
tonight. The German submarines have
now had time TO make their agreed OF
bases and they are certain to try 4
sink every ship they encounter.
Whether the Norwegian government
will protest the torpedoing Of the Bel
ridge is not yet known.

United Press Stah Correspondents
LONDON. Feb. ia neutral steam-
or has fallen victim TO the Germanl
blockade. Within an hour after the
news reached London that the French
steamer Dinorah had ueen ,torpcdocdI
without warning. sixteen miles OFT
Dicppc, the crew of the Norwegian
steamer Belridge. from New Orleans toI
Amsterdam. landed at Walmcr. near
Dover. They reported that early today
their vessel had either struck mine or
been torpedoed by a German submarine
in the Straits Of Dover, close TO the
English coast.
A remarkable fact in connection with
the torpedoing Of the two vessels was
that neither sank. The Dinorah was
flowed into Dicppe and the Belridge into
Walmcr n coast town about ten miles
north of Dover. Eighteen members Of
the crew of the Belridge who took to
the boats after nor lower deck was
awash. are missing. They have not been
heard from since, although tugs have
been searching for them since the report
of the occurrence was received.
The Belrldge was in mid-channel
when a sudden violent explosion stood
her almost on ner beam ends. Her
plates had been stove in below the
water line The captain Immediately
started his pumps. but the tanker was
making water so fast that soon her
lower deck was awash. Her fires were
drawn in time to prevent a boiler cX-
plosion and when IL seemed certain
that the vessel was about to founder
the captain ordered the boats lowered
and the pilot and rs men got in ana
left. A force Of volunteers remained
with the captain and just when it ap-
peared that the tanker was going 10
sink two Dover tugs came into sight.
They got lines across to the badly
damaged vessel and began to tow her
TO Walmer. the nearest point
Reports from Walmer say that the
captain and his volunteers are re-
naming on the Belridge and that it
is expected they will be able to make
temporary repairs so the steamer can
be docked and repaired.
Inasmuch as there are no British
mines at this particular point the
naval authorities declare that if a
mine was struck il was planted by
the Germans and within the last
twenty-four hours. The general in
clination. however, is to accept the
belief that it was a torpedo from a
German submarine that hit the tanker

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?

This question and "How to Prevent
Colds" is asked a thousand times
every day. A cold is really a fever,
not always caused by the weather but
due to a disordered condition Of the
blood or lack of important food
elements. In changing seasons fat
foods are essential because they dis
tribute heat by enriching the blood
and so render the body better able
to Withstand the varying elements.
This is the underlying reason Why
the medicinal fats in SCOTS Emulsion
quickly overcome colds and build
strength to prevent more serious sick
ness. 1t contains natures medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the
blood profits from every drop. and it is
free from harmful drugs or alcohol.
