Mrs. Oscar Curry Injured.

: Mrs. 0. Curry, of Eagleville, met
with a painful accident Sunday. She,
with her husband and a number Of
friends, were having a picnic in the
woods between Davis City and Leon,
and were cooking over an open fire.
Coffee was being made in a bucket,
and in some way the lid was closed
tight, preventing the escape of the
steam. Upon reaching the boiling
point it exploded, and Mrs. Curry,
who was kneeling before the fire at
tending to some other viands, receiv-
ed most of the contents upon her
arms and chest, scalding her severe
.ly. She was taken to Davis City,
where the burns were dressed, and
then on home to Eagleville. While it
is painful injury it is thought that
nothing serious will result, and her
many friends in Lamont are thank
full that it was no worse.-Lamoni

Quote BIBLE ON DANCING
CHICAGO CAFES, ACCUSED OF
LAW BREAKING, MAKE PLEA.
Proprletors Would Preserve Right of
Public Dancing in Hotels and
Cafes, Now Prohibited.

Chicago, March 1.-THE Bible, the
religion of the Romans, the arts of
the Greeks and the philosophy Of
Pindar were called upon to preserve
the right of public dancing in cafes
and hotels, prohibited by ordnance.
Please were made i'm behalf of mos,
OF the downtown hotels and cafes, the
owners of which had been summoned
into court for permitting violations of
the ordinances after obeying it's pro
visions for several months. Praise
the Lord with dancing" quoted coun-
sci for two Michigan avenue hotels.
1T has hghtened the cares of the hui
man race for ages. Among the Spar
tans, dancing was intimately con-
nected with the highest virtues of
the race; in Greece it was part Of the
religion.
"Pindar called Apollo the dancing
god, and well-turned phrase compli-
mentary to the god. From ballet to
the mlnuet, from square dance to
round, from tango to fox trot has been
the evolution of the dance, and if some
al the members of the reform organ

sage of the ordinance were alive when
the humor of evolution turned from
the square dance to tie round-and
some OF them undoubtedly were alive
how they must have objected to en-
circEng OF woman's waist by mans
arm; now it is the humor to dance
and eat simultaneously there is an
ether objection"
The pleas were takne under adj
Vlsement for a week. In the mean
time there is dancing in nearly every
cafe and hotel in the city.

Battle Of the Dardaneiles ls
Unlike Anything in His
tory, Say Experts.

London, March 10-The British and
French fleets have battered their way
a step nearer to Ccnstantinople, not,
however, without damage to the ships
engaged, and the battle royal for the
Dardanelles continues.
More Turkish forts on the Asiatic
side have been siienced, according to
a statement by the British admiralty
but the Turks are making terrific re-
sistance and the shells from their Ger
man-made guns have found more than
one mark on the besieging craft.
Struggle for Constantnople.
This struggle for the gateway of the
Ottoman capital is at present the big
feature of the war news and closely
element in Greece incident to the res
.gnation of the cabinet of M. Veniz-
clos, who, deeming Greece's entry into
hostilities on the side of the triple
entente imperative, could not agree
with his king and resigned. The retir-
ing premier, according to Athens dis
patches, plans to leave for a rest.
From the number of ships engaged
and the size and range of the guns, the
battle of the Dardanelles is unlike
anything in history, according to naval
experts. At $1,000 yards the huge
battleship Queen Elizabeth of the Brit
ish squadron, assisted by some smaller
ships, is hurting shells across the
Gallipoli peninsula into the Turkish
strongholds on the Asiatic shore.
The admiralty statement covers the
operations and admits that the Turks
not only scored three minor hits on
the Queen Elizal eth, but that the
majority of the ships inside the straits.
both French and British, were struck.
None were sunk and there were no
casualties.
The Turkish forts, Rumili Medjidied
Tabia and Handled 1, Tabia, firing
ing the Asiatic shore line, which pre-
viously had withstood the lombard
ment, were silenced, as was the Mount
Dardanus battery, further south. The
Turkish casualties are unknown.
Turks Claim Advantage.
A Turkish official statement from
Constantinople, issr, d prior to the ad.
miralty statement, insisted that the
fighting in the Dardanelles was devel-
oping in favor Of the Turks. 1t was
stated that no batteries were being
destroyed and that the hostile ships
were forced to retreat
Aeroplanes, taking wing, from the
decks of the besieging craft, are play
ing notable part in the operations.
One British machine became unman-
ageable and dove into the sea and an
other was hit by the Turks twenty.
eight times.
One of the most picturesque bits of
the days news is report from Blu.
charest, Roumania, stating that former
Sultan Abdul HanAid of Turkey has
regained his freedom and is gathering
his friends and supporters around
him. 1t is asserted that he may seek
to play an important part in his coun-
try's affairs.

London, March 11.-An official an.
nouncement just issued shows that
German submarines sank three British
steamships. The statement follows:
The steamer Tangistan was sunk
by German submarine off Scarbor.
cugh. Only one man of her crew OF
SO men was saved.
THE steamer Blackwood was sunk
by submarine, without warning, off
Hastings. Her crew of II was saved.
"The steamer Princess Royal of
Glasgow was sunk without warning
by German submarine off Liverpool.
Her crew of "a was saved"
Sunk by Different Boats.
The torpedoing of the British steam
ers Tangistan, Blackwood and Prin-
cess Royal = the two former cargo
boats and the latter once a coastwise
passenger ship-indicates that Ger
man submarines again are raiding at
widely separated points around the
British Isles. AS each of the boats
was torpedoed in period Of less than
nine hours, it would seem probable
that all three were sunk by different
underwater boats.
Scarborough, of which port the
Tangistan was sunk, is on the North
Sea in Yorkshire; Hastings is on the
English channel in Sussex, and Liver.
pool is on the Irish Sea.
The Tangistan, the largest of the
sunken vessels, was of 1898 tons dis
placement. She was built in 1906 and
owned by the Strick line of Swansea.
The Blackwood was built in 1907
and belonged to the Tyneside line of
North Shields. She was a TAI ton
vessel.
