New York.-The latest ruse adopted
b. the British navy to sweep the seas
OF the German submarines was related
by MIR. Frank F. Boulton. who was
passenger on board the Noordam OF
the Holland-American line. MIR. Boul-
ton received his information from Cap
tain Anderson of the Norwegian
steamship Vitalia. who asserted that
he Witnessed the destruction of a
C-boat by British cruiser.
According TO the Norwegian captain.
MIR. Boultou said. several OF the Brit
ish light cruisers have been disguised
as merchantmen. with false tunnels
and superstructure.
The Vitalia was in the channel when
she saw merchant vessel flying the
British flag. stopped a short distance
from her by a submarine The subma-

vessel. and her coming tower opened

chors, hung in full view on the cat
heads of the German boats. would be
taken back on the return trip. This
ruse was discovered by the British
agents in Holland and reported to the
Dutch authorities. who now inspect
every anchor on German vessels.
For obtaining benzine and gasoline
the Germans had another trick. A
Dutch railroad inspector. inspecting a
trainload of cement building blocks
bound for Germany. accidentally
tapped one of the bricks with a ham
mer. The block cracked and benzins
gushed out The blocks were hollow
and each one was filed with the
precious liquid. This practice has. Of
course, been stopped.
Passengers on board the Noordam
had the war brought close to then
from the moment the vessel left Rot
terdam until she had put the British
coast far astern. The Noordam WIS
surveyed by German taubes OF the
coast of Holland, was boarded by Brit
ish officers while at Deal, when sever
of her passengers. said to be Austrians
were arrested and taken ashore, anc
was held up four days in the Downs
before she was allowed to proceed.
The Noordam carried q first and
1879 second cabin passengers and 49,
persons in her steerage.

In almost every walk OF life, from
those high up in the councils OF the
government to the very lowest laborer
who earns his living by the sweat of

Poe have thrilled the hearts of count

author has become since his death,
his remains lie in an obscure little
cemetery on Fayette street in the city
of Baltimore. Md.

prominence, has taken upon herself
the organization of a campaign to
raise fund of $4,000 with which to
erect a fitting memorial over the al
most neglected grave of the great au-

S UDDEN DEATH
Caused by Disease of the Kidneys

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
well known nowadays. AS soon as
kidneys are diseased, arterial tension
is increased and the heart functions
are attacked. When the kidneys no
longer pour forth waste. u-emic poi
scning occurs, and the person dies and
the cause is often given as heart dis
ease, or disease of brain or lungs.

Mr.. Roosevelt is silent on the sub
ject of next year and his plans. There
is no risk in the statement that the
presidential bee is still busy in his
bonnet, and there is wide belief that
Notwithstanding his denunciation of
the Republican party and many of its
members he would jump at chance
TO lead it again. But that such a
chance will come to him, either natu.
rally, or by the manipulation of his
lieutenants, is so slender it commands
little consideration in responsible Re-

Fix the Tariff Now.

If the war has thrown up a protect
