Shops Beautifully Decorated.

The navy yard employees have given
much time out of working hours to the
decoration of the various shops, all of
which show up beautifully. The east
and west gun carriage shops are pro-
fusely decorated, the galleries and all
over head being outlined in red, white
and blue. The men individually have
their machines decorated and on all
sides can be seen Welcome, G. A. R."
and pictures of President Wilson. At
one end of the east shop is big Amer
lean flag that waves constantly, and at
the other end is a revolving star sew
eral feet in diameter.
In the west gun carriage shop the
men have taken especial pains to ar
range attractive exhibits. One shows
model of the new battleship PennsyI-
vania and alongside it is little sub
marine which glides along under the
surface for a distance and then comes
up, fires its torpedo and submerges
again. This, it is explained, is not ex-
actly true to life, as the submarine
fires it's torpedo when fully submerged
but it makes the exhibit more inter-
esting.
About the big shop models of torpedo
boats, of modern and civil war shells
and a regular torpedo in it's tube ready
to be discharged are attracting atten-
ton. large model of the Monitor and
the Merrimac, in Hampton roads, ma
neuverng for position, is another of
the attractive exhibits, and the full
size figure of Uncle Sam welcoming the
G. A. R.. standing over the south en-
trance to the shops. is well worked
out design. In all directions about the
shop red, white and blue decorations
wave, and some of the designs the
workmen have about their machines
are artistic and attractive Many COM
ments on the beauty of the decorations
were made by the thousands of visitors
TO the shops.

Women Preparing to Entertain High
School Fathers Tuesday Evening

The membership of the Mothers
Club of the high school is making pre-
parations to show the fathers pleas
ant evening tomorrow. All fathers
who have children in the high school
are asked to be present. Refreshments
will be served, some good music will
be had, some speeches will be made,
but any man who talks more than five
minutes, will be turned over to the
gladiators. In other words, the dads"
who come, will not be bored. In ad-
dition to other amusements provided,
members of the classes will be on
hand to conduct visitors to every de-
partment of the school, Many fathers
have been too busy to take the time
to discover what they have built. 1t
will be interesting to be conducted
through the building.

SIDERABLE ANNOYANCE.

Some of the good citizens of Lone

and around that village, who are the
source of a great deal of annoyance
There has been for some time a reign
of petty thievery going on there, ami
it seems almost impossible to appre-

who are not adverse to disturbing
public worship and as a whole the
affair is getting to be a nuisance to
the many good people living at or
near Lone Grove, who are going to
make determined effort to rid them
selves of this element.
The county attorney and other
county officials have promised the
good people of Lone Grove that this
will be investigated at once, and a de-

been seen.

CONFIRMATION RECEIVED IN
LONDON OF SINKING OF BRIT
ISH STEAMER BY GERMAN
SUBMARINE.

London, March 29.-The sinking
of the British steamer Falaba by a
German submarine has been confirm
ed. She sank yesterday off the South
Wales coast
Eight are known to be dead, and
it is feared that there was heavy loss
of life. She carried 40 passengers
and crew of 12O, and was bound
for the African west coast.
Her officers say the submarine
whistled three times as a signal
to prepare the life boats, but be-
fore this could be done, a torpedo
hit the vessel near the engine room.
Three of the life boats were swamp
ed and many persons were thrown
into the sea.
Some of the survivors assert that
the submarine meanwhile circled
about offering no assistance. A fish
ing boat saved 40 of both .passen-
gers and crew. The captain of the
vessel was picked up dead.

DAY YESTERDAY.

Yesterday was ideal, and a great
crowd spent most of their time al
Dornick Hill country club where many
of the older players and a host OF
novices welded the sticks and chased
the elusive ball over the extensive
links.
Some very creditable scores were
made by the regulars, just how good
they do not care to reveal, lest il
cause envy among other clubs over
the state The best novice score
made on the grounds since the es
tablishment of the club was made yes.

der close supervision, in Sc, and came
back to the club house abid the con.
gratulations of all who witnessed the
feat, which caused a notable expan.
sion of the chest
Governor Cruce was out with the
crowd. but as he does not play on
Sunday, he was not loath to give some
of the novices the benefit of his ex-
perience in the way of verbal instruc-
tions. Work on the club house is pro-
crossing nicely and 1t will not be
many days before it will be ready for
the painters and decorators. Those
who have visited the other country

were popular yesterday, and several
spirited matches were played by the
members.

CAMP PA|CN MAY
END IN BLAZE
Of ORAT0RY
CANDIDATES ARE URGING THE
IMPORTANCE OF EVERY MAN
CASTING HIS BALLOT IN THE
GENERAL ELECTION.

j. II. Carlock, secretary of the
county election board, made a state
ment this morning that may be put
into effect the latter part of the
week, his suggestion being that on a
certain night for speakers to hold
meetings in every ward in the city
to talk to the voters about the i'm
portance of going to the polls on
election day and casting their ballot,
as they did in the primary election.
The election is one week from to-
morrow, and every man who went
into the primary is honor bound to
support the nominee, and if none
neglects his duty the same number
of votes cast in the primary will be
cast in the general election. With
one exception the number cast in
the recent primary was the largest
ever cast in the city. The election
Officials and the candidates, the de-
feated ones, as well as the success
full, have right to expect that every
man who went to the primary will
cast his ballot for the nominee on
the morning of April 6.
Il. w. Cruce stated this morning
that when the full strength of the
party is cast 1t makes the recall
harder to put into effect. He re-
called one election here in which
over one thousand votes were cast in
the primary and less than three hun
dred in the general election. He
maintains that such practice is dan
gerous, and might lead to disaster
in the future, unless the voters do
their duty.

partment report of a single sale OF

quired 512 900 bushels of wheat for its
production and two steamers to trans
port it from New York Its value was
S750,O00 and it was milled by a mid
die western company. The buyers
paid for the shipments at seaboard
and assumed all transport risks.

Found An Old Anchor.

Honolulu, March 29-The submerg-
ed United States submarine F4 is
believed to have been located outside
the harbor. Portions of the super
structure have been brought to the
surface. The dredge California will
shift moorings, tugs will criss-cross
in all directions, and an attempt will
be made to lift the submarine.
Three days search for the lost sub
marine and the believed success in
finding the craft resulted only in
unfultilled hopes.
Divers Agraz and Evans Sunday
went down the two cables thought
to have been attacked to the sub
marine and found that the heavy
body was an old anchor, probably that
lost by the battleship Oregon.
Agraz, who went down the cable
attached to the anchor, wore only
a helmet.
Diver Evans, who descended along
the secoEd cable, reported that he
found nothing at the bottom.
Agraz, whose descent to a depth
of 2l5 feet is said by naval authori-
ties to be worlds record, spent
twenty-five minutes on the down
ward journey and nine and half
minutes in the ascent The expert
ence apparently caused him no dis
tresS.
The positive statement was made
here yesterday by Naval Constructor
julius a. Furer that the four sub
marines of the Hawaiian division
were examined as to their stability
only a month ago He said that all
were found in good condition.
The water is so deep at the point
where the FL is said to have dis
appeared that navy officers asserted
today that without diving apparatus
which would permit men to go down
800 feet the task of locating the craft
and lifting it will present great me-
chanical difficulties.

appare. "oci,, satisfied to withstand
the Austro-~ fr~>J attacks against
their very strone IS at Koz-
iouwka, which the mans have
tried so often to capture.
Along the rest of the eastern front
the battle is of desultory character,
which is doubtless due to the fact
that the snow is melting under the
warmth of the spring sun and the
rivers are either open or are covered
with such thin coating of ice that
they will not bear any weight.
In the west also the commanders
are waiting for better conditions be-
fore making an effort on a large
scale, although the French here and
there are attempting to capture posi-
tions which would give them an ad-
vantage when the general advance is
decided on.
Their more recent efforts have
been directed against the heights of
the Meuse. to the east and south of
Verdun, in which both they and the
Germans claim to have made gains
The object of these operations is
to compel the Germans to evacuate
St Mihiel, where their line reaches
the river Meuse. causing a partial
bending of the French front.
To the general public more inter-
esting are the operations in the Oar
danelles, of which, however, nothing
has been officially published for some
days. 1t is presumed that the allied
fleet is waiting for the mine sweepers
to complete their work before the
attacks on the forts are renewed and
perhaps also for the arrival of rein
forcements of ships, men and ammu-
milton.
Upon the success of these opera
tons depends not only the fate of
Turkey, but probably the future pol
icy of the Balkan states and Italy
In Italy big demonstrations were
held today calling upon the govern
ment to take action to realize the
ambitions of the country, while in
the Balkan capitals the diplomats of
the allied nations are busily engaged
in an endeavor to reorganize the Bal
kan league and insure the simultan-
eous Intervention OF all the Balkan
powers on the side of the allies. Be
fore this can be dcne, Servia must
be induced to make concessions to
Bulgaria in that part of Macedonia
which fell to her after the last Bal
kan war.
The Germans also are active in
Sofia and are trying to induce Bull
garia by the cession of part of Euro
pean Turkey to remain neutral.

Only a Rumor.

Rumors of a plan to take over some
thing like $4,000 worth Of land from
the Hebron Sanatorium for woman's
reformatory, are current. 1t is of re-
pute that Governor Curtis and other
administration leaders favor the plan
We do not credit the story. for the
good reasons that it would be a
breach Of faith, and questionable
way to start a good work. The
donors of the Sanatorium property
were not interested in reformatory;
their purpose lay along other lines.
The State is able. and capable under
proper management, Of caring for that
fraction of humanity unfortunate
enough to require restraint and refor-
nation. The deed Of the Sanatorium
property contemplated no such posi-
bility as leading the State into save
at-the-vent methods, Rather than
have their aim despoiled perhaps
some Of the Sanatorium contributors
would prefer to give the State the
$4,000 such a scheme would save. *
