FRENCH CRUISER IS
 SUNK BY SUBMARINE
LEON GAMsETTA SENT TO BOT. TOM IN THE STRAIT OF or
 RANTO-SANk IN 10 MINUTES.

Brindisi, Italy-The French cruiser Leon Gambetta has been torpedoed by the Austrian submarine U-6 in the Strait Of Otranto, the waterway lead ing to the Adriatic Sea.
 The first report of the destruction of this cruiser came from the men on duty at the semaphore station of Sus- ta Maria Lucea. Vessels were sent out at once to the aid of the Leon Gambetta from Brindisi, Taranto, Ot- ranto and Bari. The men at the sta- tion also went out in their own boat and were the first to reach the scene.
 It has not been ascertained yet if tie attack on the French cruiser oe- cured within the territorial waters Of Italy
 The Austrian submarine U-6 is the same craft that few days ago board ed the Italian steamer Jolando.
 Since the beginning of the Anglo. French operations against the Oar. Ganeues. Trench warships in the Adriatic have limited their activities to watching in the Strait of Otranto with the idea of preventing any Aus trian submarine escaping from the Adriatic, at the head of which is Pola, the Austrian naval base, and reaching the coast of Turkey. This patrol duty was particularly to protect the yes sels of the allies operating against the Dardanelles. It is well known that Austria possesses several subma- rines whose cruising range is sufficient to the Dardanelles without rep1enish- ing their fuel supply

OLDEST PIECE OF WRITING
Sumerian Tablet in University of Pennsylvania Records Deeds of
 Babylonians.

A number of ancient Sumerian tab lets, recording the deeds of the Baby lonians thousands of years ago, have been deciphered by George A. Barton at the University of Pennsylvania mu- scum. One of these tablets. which tells how a farmer rid his field of To- custs and caterpillars, is dated 4,000 B. c. and is the oldest piece of writ ing extant. according to an announce ment made by officials of the museum. The farmer, Doctor Barton's transla- ton says, called in a necromancer, who broke jar, cut open a sacrifice, a word of cursing he repeated. and the locusts and caterpillars fed" For this service he received a tall palm tree.
 That a canal was constructed in Babylonia nearly 5000 years ago is shown by another tablet dated "The year the Divine Naram-Sin opened the mouth of the canal Erin at Nippur." Naram-Sin was a king in Babylonia and is supposed to have financed the construction of the waterway which gave Nippur transportation facilities with the rest of the world. A third tablet. dated 3200 B. C., records the transfer of land and a quantity of grain for bronze money. Gold and sill yer were known at that time, but were not used as currency

MANY LIVES ARE LOST
German Submarines Have Renewed Their Activity and several Other
 Merchant Ships Sent Down.

London.-The British admiralty au- nounced that two German torpedo boats had been sunk in the North Sea The British torpedo boat de stroyer Recruit also was sunk.

 A series of small affairs took place in the neighborhood of the Galoper and Northhinder lightships.
 During the forenoon H. ". destroy CT Recruit was sunk by a submarine, four officers and 21 men being saved by the trawler Daisy
 At D. m. the trawler Colombia was attacked by two German torpeG5 boats, who approached her from the westward and commenced an action without hoistng their colors The Go. lombia was sunk by torpedo, only one deck hand being saved by the other trawlers.
 A division of British destroyers, comprising the Laforey. Leonidas, Lawford and Lark. chased the two German vessels and after a brief run. ming fight of about one hour sank them both
 The British destroyers sustained no casualties.
 Two German officers and A men were rescued from the sea and made prisoners of war"
 The destroyer Recruit was on patrol duty when the submarine sank her According to details received here, the Recruit when struck signaled for assistance and her call was answered by the trawler Daisy and 30 men out of her complement of s were saved
 It is stated that torpedo was fired at the Daisy, which was forced to leave one of her rescue boats behind. and that the submarine chased this boat and fired her gun at it, wounding four men.
 British torpedo boat destroyers, sighting in the distance two German torpedo boats which had sunk the trawler Colombia and apparently were supporting a submarine, engaged the Germans at long range in the vicinity of the North Hinder light. The Ger mans endeavored to run away, but the British boats pressed them hard and shortly afterward sank them. The British boats rescued some of the crews of the Germans and landed them.

 We haven't been asked" said Mir Bryan, ito take the matter up, aud we have nothing before us that we would regard as sufficient to raise the subjct of recognition.
