CITY HOSPITAL
TO Be IMPROVED
X-RAY TO BE PURCHASED AND
OTHER IMPROVEMENTS IN
THE NEAR FUTURE.

At a meeting of the board of trus-
tees held at the city hospital yester-
day morning, it was decided to make
a number of improvements at the we'll
known institution in the near future
Among other things it was decided to
purchase an x-ray machine, and a COM
mittee of three was appointed by the
mayor yesterday to make the pur-
chase.
1t was also decided at the meeting
to equip the hospital with an anesthet-
ic machine, which will prove a great
addition, as the old way of admins
tering anesthetics has long ago been
done away with in all of the up-to-date
hospitals.
The question of beautifuying Kaiser
park, recently donated to the city, was
also discussed, and it was agreed to
install a number Of water spigots in
the park. Those present at the meet
ing yesterday We're Mayor Hopkins, L.

TWO MORE CITIES WANT
TO JOIN STATE LEAGUE
Brunswick Recently Asked to Vote
on Ouestion--Two Glass c Men
May Be Allowed.

Two more Georgia cities-Dublin
and Fitzgerald-have filed application
with President Jemison for admission
to the Georgia State league, ana the
various clubs now composing the cir
cult were recently asked to vote on
the question making the Georgia State
league an eight-club league. 1t is un-
derstood that these cities, while not
being particularly opposed to the two
cities seeking entrance, have voted
against an increase in the size Of the
league.
President Hopkins also received a
letter from the president yesterday
asking if the local association was in
favor of permitting two class G men
on each club. AS is. .well known at
the annual meeting Of the league di-
rectors 1T was agreed to allow only
one higher-class player on each club
The local association has voted
against any increase.

WILL NAME REYNOLDS TO
HEAD BRUNSWICK CLUB
This Has Been Practically Decided
and He Will Likely Be Formally
Elected Today.

Wade Reynolds, last year catcher
for the Brunswick club, will head that
aggregation of the Georgia State league
this year, and while he has not yet
been formally elected he has been
agreed upon by the directors and
President Hopkins will likely so noti-
my him today and he will report for
duty on April first, in order to get
everything in readiness for the train
ing season which starts April r.
President Hopkins submitted a prop
osition to Reynolds on Saturday, and
yesterday he received a reply from
him, accepting it, and also informing
the association that he had. a number
of likely young players in view and
that as soon as he was signed he
would submit contracts to them. He
stated that he had two or three good
pitchers whom he would bring with
him. Reynolds also stated that he was
in receipt of letter from Otto Jor
dan, the Pilots manager last season
in which Jordan stated that he had
several first-class players whom he
would turn over to Reynolds.
While applications have been re
| ceived from a number of other bal
| players anxious to manage the locals
it is believed that Reynolds will make
the Pilots good man. He knows the
game, plays it, is hard worker, ant
it is safe to predict that he will giv'
the city a club which will be well il

AMERICAN REPLY
NOT YET READY
WILSON DECLINES TO INTIMATE
WHAT CONTENTS OF NOTE
WILL BE.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-Presi-
dent Wilson said today the American
reply to the declaration by Great
Lritain and France of an embargo on
commercial intercourse between Ger
many and neutral countries was not
yet ready At the same time he de-
clined to give any intimation of its
character.
1t was made clear at the White
House that there will be no further
correspondence with Germany or
Great Britain On obtaining an agree
ent with reference to foodstuffs and
the subarine blockade. The presi-
dent pointed out to callers that the
American suggestions were entirely in
oral and the United States had no
right to ask the two belligerents to
agree to anything as between them
selves but had thought as a moral
Obligation it should suggest it.

50 LIVES LOST
BY HEAVY SNOW
AND LANDSLIDE
LARGE PORTION OF THE BRIT
TANIA PLANT WAS ENTIRELY
SWEPT AWAY, TRAPPING MANY
MINERS.

VANCOUVER, b. c., March 23.--Un-
til the arrival of another steamer late
today from Howe Sound no further in
formation was expected concerning
the extent of the loss of life in the
snow and landslide that swept away
early yesterday part of the plant of
the Brittania Mines, Limited.
A steamer which arrived from
Brittania Beach last night with sew
eral of the injured. brought word
that the death list probably would
reach the first estimates of fifty.
Eighteen bodies had been recovered
and twenty were known to have been
njurd.
The slide occurred shortly after
midnight There was report like a
dynamite explosion; in fact, survivors
declared they first thought the mines
magazine had blown up. A mass OF
rock, snow and hinge trees swept
down from near the summit of the
mountains.
1t carried from a ledge a bunk
house, a cookhouse and one or two
of the houses occupied by the fami
lies of the employees. The entire mass
of debris then shot downwards, stop
ping half mile farther, near tho
Brittania creek, where some of the
mine workings are situated.
When the rescuers got to work they
found some bodies free of the rocks
and snow but so badly battered as tC
be almost unrecogniZable
About dozen men coming off the
night shift from the mine narrowly
escaped. One man was buried in the
snow for several hours, only his hant
appearing above the surface. He was
rescued unhurt, although nearly
frozen

ATTRACTIONS TO BE SEEN HERE
NEXT MONTH WILL BE BEST
EVER OFFERED BY REDPATH
PEOPLE.

George G. Rheinfrank, superintend-
ent of advance work for the Redpath
Chautauqua, was in the city yesterday
with his crew of advance men. Messrs.
Beirs, Perkins and McClintalk They
covered the city thoroughly with red
awning dates, red pennants and post
ers on which are pictured the princi-
pal musicians, lecturers and enter
tainers of others kinds who viii ap-
pear on the program at the Brunswick
chautauqua to be held April 1924.
Especially attractive are the big
Autographs of Alice Nelson, one of
Americas foremost prima donas; that
of William Owen, who stars in the
Charles Kennedy play, The Servant
in the. House" and of Palaria, very
emotional and dramatic, but at the
same time one of the most successful
bandmasters in America.
Yesterday afternoon at $3.50 O'Clock
there was a meeting at the residence
of Mrs. H. M. Branham of the joint
chautauqua committees of the d. A
r. and ,.le Kings Daughters, under
whose auspices the entertainment is
to be given. Plans were laid at the
meeting for the ticket campaign.
The chautauqua literature this year
excels that of any previous year i'll
artistic finish, as well as in richness
of color and in quantity.
The program de luxe is also far be-
yond anything ever attempted at any
of the previous chautauquas. Miss
Nelson, who sang with the Metropol
itan Grand Opera company a few years
ago, will come to Brunswick in her
private car and will lend class to the
program. Other stars of national rep
utation will also be brought to Bruins
wick this year, in order that those who
reside here and in this immediate vi
cinity may have the privilege of be
| ing entertained and instructed by
them.

TURKEY CAPITAL
is We Ry QUIET
IN TINES Of WAR
THE TURKS ACCEPT WAR AS A
NECESSITY, BUT TROOPS ARE
IN READINESS FOR ANY CON-
TINGENCY THAT MAY ARISE.

CONSTANTINOPLE, March q.
Though the Russian fleet is not pre-
vented from occasionally appearing
before the Bosphorus, nor the French
and British men-of-war from occasion
al taking a pot shot at some point
along the coast near the Dardanelles,
it is difficult to realize that Constan-
tinople is the solar pleXus of a country
at war with three of the greatest ma
tions of Europe.
There are those who insist that
the population of Turkey is apathetic
toward the war. 1t is certain the
people of this city are highly unde-
monstrative.
Talaat Bey, minister of the inte-
rior, minister of finance, minister of
marine and up to few days ago
minister of war told special
correspondent that the Turkish
public never had welcomed any war
with as much enthusiasm as the pres
ent one. The statement seems eX-
traordinary in view of observations
made in the streets and other places
where the quiet-loving Turks congre-
gate. But there is no doubt that the
war, even if not extremely popular, is
at least accepted as a sort of grim
necessity. Bread is 25 per cent higher
than it used to be and cheese and
olives have doubled in price.
Coal is extremely, scarce and of
poor quality, and petroleum is high in
price and hard to get. Despite all
this the people seem to be cheerful
enough. In and around Constants
nople is quartered a large force of
military While the attitude of Bull
garia gives rise to no apprehension
Greece is doubted to say the least
nor is there assurance that the forces
Of the triple entente will not attempt
a landing near COnstantinople. To
meet this contingency is the duty of
some six army corps stationed IN and
about the capital. Almost daily part
of this garrison marches through the
| streets-well uniformed and equipped
as rule.
Through the city also move large
army supply trains. The wagons are
well kept in a majority of cases and
the animals appear too good for the
hard work they are called upon to do
All in all, Constantinople is a
rather restful place, in these times OF
stress, say the oldest European resi-
dents. Needless to say the many re-
ports of riots and bloodshed are pure
| inventions. The capital, in fact, has
never been quieter than at present
or better managed.
