WOMEN WARNED To
BEWARE WASHERS
FOUND ON STREET
Many Reports Received Of Men Who
Annoy WOmen-UgIy Stories Told
Of Their Business Here.

Considerable alarm has been caus.
ed among some OF the women of the
city during the past week by the ac.
tivities OF mashers, professional pro.
ourers or at least men who make a
practice OF annoying women. A hall
dozen different stories concerning
these men are being told and there
Is no question but there is some
foundation for them.
As late as last evening. two very
prominent young ladies were fol-
lowed for several blocks by two
young men but were saved from an
noyance by several other ladies who,
coming out OF the Christian church,
overheard remarks made by the men
ard, becoming suspicious OF them,
accompanied the two girls home. on
the previous night another young
lady had similar experience in the
same nelghborhood and took refuge
in the church.
Another story is 70 the effect that
two men, riding in closed automo.
bile. jumped out OF the car on east
Court street few nights ago and
chased a girl until she fled into a
neighboring house for protection
Other stories implicate a woman as
an associate OF the men.
The police say that no complaints
have been made to them Of such Of
fenses and complain OF a disposition
on the part OF women, who are an
noyed by men, to refuse to take the
matter into the courts for fear OF
notoriety.
Some local citizens profess to see
a connection between the activities
of these men and the recently expos
ed underworld campaign in San Fran
cisco to procure 5000 girls for i'm
moral purposes.

LONDON, March 2O.-The report
that Vice Admiral Garden. command
er In chief OF the allied fleet oper-
atlng against the Dardanelles, had
either been killed or severly wound
ed in the fighting on Thursday when
the British ships Ocean and Irresisi-
ible and the French ship Bouvet
were sunk, gained credence here to-
day. Although the admiralty unof-
ficially denied that the admiral had
been injured, the rumor would not
down and many believed that II was
true.
II was stated by the admiralty to-
day that aside from the loss OF the
vessels and the resultant fatalities.
there had been no serious casualties.
Dispatches received by the admiralty
indicated that the forts Killd Bahr
and Chanak have been badly dam
ager by the concentrated fire OF the
Is allied warships.
Dispatches from Athens say that
despite the losses, eight vessels OF
the fleet reentered the Dardanelles
and are today shelling the forts on
both sides OF the narrows. Reports
from Petr6grad say that the Russian
Black Sea fleet Is cruising off the
entrance OF the Bosporus. A panic
was reported TO reign in CONSTANT
nople;
The appearance OF the Russian
fleet leads to the belief here that
definite understanding was previous
ly arranged getween the allied fleet
on the one hand and the Russian
ships on the other to deliver stimuli
taneous attacks on the defenses OF
the Ottoman capital with the expec-
tation OF Fastening the city's down
fall.
The rumors regarding the wound
ing OF Admiral Garden followed the
announcement by the admiralty that
supreme command OF the fleet had
been transferred to Rear Admiral
John Robek because Garden was
"ill."
Detailed stories OF the lombard
ment received here today stated that
the superdreadnaugh Queen Eliza
beth led the allied ships into the
straight and that the 10 inch guns OF
the Elizabeth scored the most notable
hits. According to one report, al
projectile from one Of these big guns
exploded the magazine at Fort Cha
max. AT intervals OF three minutes,
two more projectiles from the Eliza
beth exploded in almost exactly the
same spot.
The other ships, declared the re-
ports. cruising in circles In order toI
spoil the aim of the gunners ashore,
necessarily bombarded both sides OF
the strait. A Turkish ship appeared
near Killd Bahr but vanished when
the fleet showered her with shells
The British ship Irresistible had
been badly damaged by the shore
fcrts and was burning in several pla-
ces before It went afoul Of n mine
and sank on the Asiatic side Of the
strait in a cloud of smoke. The
ocean is believed to have gone down
near the Irresistible, Darkness was
approaching when two columns Of
water were seen suddenly to shoot
slSyward on either side OF the vessel
Although Constantinople advlces
state the Britisher African was
sunk the admiralty declares this Is
certainly an error.

New Casting Process.

y newly invented process for cast
ing yolatilizable metals, such as brass,
is intended mainly for making cast
joints between the rods and tubes used
in making such metal structures as
bedsteads and for making and perma-
nently attaching the usual ornamental
knobs, says Popular Mechanics. With
this process blowholes and other de-
fccts due to gases i'll the mold are
done away With. The mold used is an
ordinary two part hinged mold with
recesses in each half for the poured
metal, and the feature of the invention
is q vent for the gases that is separate
and distinct from the channel for pour
ing the molten metal. In using the
mold the molten metal is practically
dashed into place. with the result that
the volatile portions of the metal are
formed into bubbles that escape quick
ly through the vent.

armless, is nevertheless regarded as Il
golfer of no mean ability, says the
New York Times. He lost his arms on
Sept. %, 1902, at the age of nine years,
in a railroad accident.
In playing golf he holds the club be-
tween his cheek and shoulder and with
the stick in this position has gone
around the links of the Buffalo Coun-
try club in 10S strokes, Il truly remark
able feat, considering the fact that Is
is bogy here. The Buffalo clubs course
is Of the best bunkered and trap
ped in the country.
With the combined swing and jerk
of the body and shoulder he is able tC
give the ball an effective stroke. Both
in 1912 and 1913 he won the second
flight cup in the caddieS' tournament
II will attempt to win it again this
