CAUGHT IN BRITISH NET

New York, July 12.-The Ger
man submarine which sank the Lus-
itania has been captured by the
British In one Of the English Chan
mel nets, and the officers and crew
imprisoned.
This was the statement made by
Lewis Charles Lewis. son of a part
ner Ia the firm of Lewis & Lewis, of
5S1 Fifth avenue, who arrived to-
day with his aunt. Mrs. J. Sim
monds, on the American liner st.
Paul.
Mrs. Simmonds and her nephew
are residents OF England and came
here to stay during the war.
Lewis said that two weeks before
the s.. Paul left England his father,
who is closely connected with Gov
eminent sources of information, told
him of the capture.
The crew was quietly placed in
prison and no mention made OF the
capture, because the British Govern
ment feared an uprising of the peo-
pie and a general public demand
that the crew be hanged.
'fThe submarine was either the
U-24 or the U-29, l can't remember
which," said Lewis. "The officers,
after their capture, admitted it was

The United States. like other
countries of immense population,
has its "cranks" who attack men in
high life and are usually men OF
the criminally insane species. The
latest specimen was Frank Holt,
alias Erich Muenter-or the reverse.
The men who assassinated Presi-
Dental characters were quite nu-
merous. There was Booth who kill
ed Lincoln, Guiteau who killed Gar
field, Czolgocz, who killed Mckinley
and John s. Schrank who tried to
kill Roosevelt. They are all OF the
same type and their murderous ac'
lions are liable to develop at any
moment, these brain-wrecking Wal
times. They should all be put
where they can dc no further harm
one way or another.

Those who figure out statistics
say that more people were killed.

ab,at New York on the 4th than by
fireworks. Perhaps the ratio was
about the same in other thickly pop

the auto and its driver, everywhere,

1t is estimated that the lamb and
wool crop of Kentucky this season
will be worth $S.OO0,000 and will
exceed in value that of the wheat
crop. There are a number of farm
products besides tobacco which Ken
lucky can raise as well as any state
in the Union if her farmers will
only onse get started in earnest. To-
bacco, if raised at all, should be a
side crop, so that if anything goes
wrong in season or marketing, II
will not make much difference. Too
much dependence in tobacco has i'm
poyerished many Kentucky farmers.

Two hundred years ago there was
born a man who. driven out OF the
churches. brought people from the
world into the church as few men who
have ever lived. December 16, I7I4,
was the birthday OF George White
field. Gifted naturally to a rare de-
gree. including such a voice as is sell
dom heard. he developed his gifts by
persistent. industry. and became a
preacher who shook England and
America. We are accustomed to
things on a big scale today; but
Whitefeld's record would make an i'm
preston even on the twentieth CEN
fury. For 30 years he averaged one
and n half sermons a day. His audi
ences averaged 1000. and at times
swelied to incredible size; some days.

The navy department is considering
the feasibility Of using aeroplanes 70

posed by Rear Admiral Fsske- To

A night attack is presumed. though
a day attack can also be made. The

The ship. il Is argued. cannot see the

II, by good fortune. IL does. the chances
Of hitting the airship In its spiral
course are almost negligible. IL de-
hyers its torpedo SO quickly that the
work is done before defense Is pos
sible. II II is hit, the exchange is Of
one life and an aeroplane for q thou
sand lives plus ship. The reduction
in the distance for delivering the tor
pedo which the aeroplane win allow
may result in the reduction Of the
weight Of the torpedo. Already the
Germans have been experimenting on
Lake Constance, successfully. II is
said, with dropping torpedoes from
Zeppelins. This suggestion Of Admiral
F1ske approaches the subject from a
new angle, and IL experiment should
bear out the theory II is not impossible
that German and English naval arms
may use IL.
This account is summarized from
the statement by Park BENJAMIN. who
writes as q naval expert for the indie
pendent. The tone Of his article Is
that the suggestion is regarded as en-
tirely good and that our navy depart
ment is considering IL with q view Of
trying its practicability.
