PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, March Especial:

one French-haye been sent to the
bottom of the straits of the Darda-
nelles by Turkish mines, while at
least two other warships have been
raked by the cannon fire of the

| Britain and France admit these
losses, the first serious n suffered
by the allies since they began their
endeavor to pierce the totuous water
way leading up to Constantinople.
Berlin asserts that an allied torpedo
boat destroyer also has been sunk.
The %battleships which met with
disaster are the Irresistible and
Ocean, which belong to Great Brit
ain, and the Bouvet, belonging to
France. The damaged ships are the
British cruiser Iniexible and the
French battleship Gaulois. Fears are

ton of the crew of over 500 men on
board the Bouyet met death, as the
vessel sank three minutes after she
had come in contact with the mine.
The British casualties are said to
have been slight.
The damage sustained by the Turk
ish forts in the b~ombardment is not
stated. but it is asserted that the
naval operations in the waterway
continue.
The British admiralty declares it
has reason to believe that the famous
sea rover, the German cruiser Karls-
ruhe. was sunk in the vicinity of the
West Indies early in November. a
similar report from unofficial sources
has been In circulation several times.
While no big engagements are re-
ported as in progress. there is violent
fighting going on at various places on
the eastern and western fronts.
Heavy losses are said TO have been
inflicted on the Germans in the re-
pulse of an attack in the vicinity of
Lemesnil, while Vienna asserts that
the field was covered with Russian
dead after a battle in Galicia between
Austrians and Russians. Violent ar
tillery engagements are taking place
in the Carpathians.
A Berlin news agency dispatch de-
clares that reports have reached Ber-
lin to the effect that the British ar
senal at Sheerness, Eng, has been
bombarded by two German a%viators.
There will be no stoppage of work
during the war by English trade IN
%ionists. This result has been obtain
ed through conferences between the
British chancellor of the exchequer
and a committee of defense. Wage
and other demands of the men were
arbitrated. A relaxation of trade un-
ion regulations will permit the EN-
ployment of semi-skilled and female
labor.
Holland is reported to be prepar-
ing a note of protest to France and
Great Britain on their reprisal plans
against Germany.

WITH THE USUAL GREETING
Elderly Darky Remembered His
Training and Addressed stereo-
typed Question to angel"

Jack McGeevy, the vaudeville en-.
~tertainer, was reared In a southern
locality where the population was
largely black and where the older
darkies were invariably respectful. A
part of their Difference. says Nc
Greevy, was to inquire as to the health
of the family of anyone who addressed
them, even II he were a stranger.

BEER MINED.

After twenty-five years of practice
Dr.. S. s. Lungren. a leading physician
and surgeon, has this to say about
beer: ut is difficult to find any part
in the confirmed beer drinkers ma.
chinery that Is doing its work as It
should. This is why their life cords
snap Off like glass rods when disease
or accident gives them O little blow.
Beer drinking shortens life. This Is
not a mere opinion; 1t Is a we'll
settled, recognized fact. Physicians
and insurance companies accept this
as unquestionably as any other undis.
puted fact of science. The great Eng.
fish physicians decide that the hearts
action is increased 10 per cent in its
efforts to throw Off alcohol introduced
into the circulation. The result is
easily figured out. The natural pulse
beat Is 76 per minute. If we multiply
this by 60 an hour, and "a hours in a
day, and add 10 per cent, we find that
fhf heart has been compelled to do
as extra work during that time in
throwing of the burden Of a few
drinks equal to 1876 tons lifted one foot
high.

REASONS FOR ABSTINENCE.

It's hard to be a physical advise,
and keep off the subject Of alcoholic
liquors when you realize that there
never can be anything like a higl
average Of physical well-being In 6
country where a large part of thu
male population insists on poisoning
itself regularly or periodically. | will
simply sum up a few of the reasons
strictly from tho standpoint of the
physical trainer-why men should NOT
drink alcohol.
Alcohol is not a food; 1t Ia q drug
1t Injuries the blood.
II retards the digestion.
It Is the worst enemy of the brain
worker.
1t hardens the liver.
1t destroys the kidneys.
1t furnishes no support to the body.
It Is a depressant.
1t Is a most destructive agent In the
state of health or of disease.
1t deadens the body and the senses
1t affects the mental and moral side
Of nature.
Alcohol users show death rate of &c
per cent greater than nonusers.

NATION ON THE WATER WAGON,
The German emperor has put us in
the way OF saving ourselves. Not he,
but drink. was our enemy, and the kai.
ser has slain our enemy for us. He
has made US adopt temperance and
nothing can defeat us now" This was
said in Petrograd by MI. Benlslowsky,
director Of the Russian.American
Steamship company and a member of
the duma, as reported by Mary Isabel
Brush In an article, "A Nation on the
Water Wagon" In the Saturday Eve
ming Post. To the car the writer
gives credit for the empire-wide stop
page of drink. Others. she says, would
have stopped the sale OF vodka merely
for the mobilization. but 1t had long
been the determination of the car to
abolish the evil and with the war
caiLe the psychological moment. When
his prime minister declared a total alb
stinence measure impossible" he re-
QueSteu MS resignation, and shortly
afterward issued the mandate which
lifted the liquor curse from a domain
which overs ~one-seventh of the entire
globe.
Russia" says Mrs. Brush, entirely
sober for the first time In her national
existence, stands up bright and buoy.
ant, with a new hope and a new Joy.
She has no regrets and no problems.
Even the minister of finance, His FIX.
cellency Mr.. Bark, says she has not,
as he stands smiling with optimism In
the capital OF his emancipated country
and faces the situation Of raising--to
replace the revenue from vodka-the
modest sun Of a thousand million
rubles a year."
