CAPTAIN FIELDING Tells
OF DRESDEN'S Loss
BY Tho United Press.


VALPARAISO. Chile, March l7.--ln
the first detailed story of the naval
battle off Robinson Crusoe's Island,
Lieutenant Commander Fielding, OF ths
British auxiliary cruiser Drama, today
denied that the German cruiser Dres-
den had been sunk in neutral waters.
THE Dresden was about twelve
miles of the point of Juan Fernandez
Island when we sighted her" said
Fielding. I'VE at once gave chase, the
cruiser Glasgow leading. the Kent
close behind, and the Drama trailing
slightly in the rear.
THE Glasgow closed in TO short
range and opened fire. She fired sew
eral shots before the Dresden's guns
got in action. All the time the Ger
man was running in toward the coast
"The Kent swung In to head her off.
Before the Kent opeled up on her, the
( Dresden's upper works we're afire and
Il was plainly seen that ner raiding
days we're over. The Kent had fired
less than half dozen shells when the
Dresden ran up the white flag. We
were ordered to stand by and take
of the crew. Within q few minutes
flames reached her magazine, there
was a terrific explosion and The
cruiser went down.
! "'The story that she was sunk in
Chilean waters is nonsense. That can
be disproven by locating her hulk.
| German wounded from the Dresden,
who we're brought here. praised the
English ship commanders for their
work Of rescue but asserted positively
that the cruiser was sent to the bottom
within less than half mile of the
island. They said the Dresden was at
anchor when she was fired on and that
her crew were ordered to take to the
boats

Dresden, sister ship of the famous
Emden, leaves only two German war
ships on the high seas. They are the

THE WONDERFUL WIRELESS

The other day naval officer or
the wireless station at Arlington, Va,
called the Pearl Harbor station in
Hawaii, 1900 miles away. The call
was at once answered and the opera
ftor in Hawaii in answering called the
name of the officer who had made
1.-THE first call, he recognizing the voice
of friend.
Nikola Tesla, hearing of this, pro-
duced copy of the Electrical World
eleven years old, in which he had
predicted this very thing.
Then he said, in substance, that
this was but a beginning, that in a
little while longer men would talk
ITO each other all around and through
the earth and there would be no mis-
take, they would send their own pic
lures along at the same time; that
the earth was vastly better conduc-
tor than the air and that there was
nothing to prevent these converse
tions or the sending by man of his
picture with his message.
I This leads up to all kinds of spec
Eulation. The sun is perpetually throw
ing off electricity to his planets. If 1t
}is soon to be possible for man to talk
as face to face with his fellow men
on the other side of the earth, and
have his voice recognized by the
friend; if, further, he is going to be
fable to send his picture for purposes
Eof Identification how long thereafter
before man can strike with his voice
return current to the sun and draw
an answer back? If voice can hold
Its power for 1900 miles, why not
100000 miles?
| If he can send his picture at the
same time, why cannot the gentleman,
Tor LADY, in the sun return his or
her picture? That might be easier
than to read the return message, for
who knows what the language in the
tsun may be? Who knows but it may
be Welsh or Russian? But the pic
ture all could understand. How that
picture would take in a movie show!
What mysteries it would clear up,
Gcould We but get the truth!
If voice and picture can be sent,
why not the picture of grand opera
prima Ionna and her voice? Or the
music of full orchestra as it is
played up close to the place where
music was born.
The Fire Worshipers worshiped the
sun as the source of all life and light,
and it was natural worship. Now

put under partial control by men,

GO AFTER SOUTH
AMERICAN TRADE

st. Louis-Secretary of the Treas
ury McAdoo, in an address here to-
day, said that South American coun-
tries were begging the United States
to seize the opportunity of supplying
them with products they have been
getting from Europe, and that dele
gates to the recent Pan-American
conference told him their govern
ments would be willing to subscribe
to the capital stock of corporation
that would provide ships to ply be-
tween the United States and South
American ports.
He said a merchant marine was ne
cessary as an adjunct to the navy and
that 400 merchant ships would be ne
cessary as auxiliary vessels of the
navy were to utilize it's present max
imum strength.
1--WE can no longer sleep upon the
deluded idea," he said, that we do
not need a navy for national defense.
The time has come when we must put
ourselves in position to defend our
country from any agressor who may
attack us. We want an efficient navy
for peace-not war, but to protect
ourselves in the event of war;

THE SLEEP OF THE BIRDS

How would you like it if your
mother told you to draw up one foot
and go to sleep? Well, that Is the
way the wading birds, such as the
'cranes and herons, do. They each
hide one foot in their feathers, in
stead of their heads.
The manner in which different
birds sleep is an interesting study
Perching birds-our little songsters
Ego to sleep on twig and the hind
toe bends around to meet the front
toes; when the birds sit down the
muscles drawing the toes tightly
around and the bird is safely locked
to the twig! The birdy tufts out her
feathers, hides her head snugly under
her wing and goes to sleep.
Woodpeckers, in their holes, cling
by their feet and brace themselves
by their stiff tail feathers. Chimney
sWifts do the same thing. Hawks
and also owls, stand upright when
they sleep, as If it were beneath their
dignity to bend in the least. Ducks
float on the surface of the water with
their heads tucked beneath their
wings and are often carried for quite
a distance from where they first go
to sleep, by the wash of the water
especially if strong wind comes up
in the night.
Hens and turkeys like a fairly
wide perch because they like to rest
their breasts, as if their bodies were
ather heavy.

Through the ruarl sections of our

that our entertainer had never spent
a day on farm in her life, that she
had never performed a day Of labor
or experienced a real hardship, and
could she have viewed the life OF this

have proved food for thought and
stimulation for some of the things in
this life worth while.

HEARS FROM
AN OLD CTOR

Warren w. Irish, of Boise, who
was a member of Company B, Tenth
New York cavalry, during the civil
war, and who took part in the battle
of Gettysburg, recently wrote to the
National Tribune, Washington, some
interesting details of Gettysburg.
which were published in that paper
on September 80. Of late the Tri-
bune has been reviewing Gettysburg
and Mr., Irish volunteered his person
al experiences and those of some of
his comrades.
+ Mr.. Irish mentioned reconnois-
ance made by Company B shortly be-
fore Christmas, 1861, when they dis
covered and located many points aft
.erwards made famous by the battle.
He also related the experience OF
himself and several of his comrades
after the battle, years later, telling
how they stopped at farm house
and were supplied with food, of which
they were sore in need. He told how
the farmers wife shared her last
crust with them.
Refreshed His Memory
To Mr.. Lrish's surprise, he receiv,
ed, last week, letter from Mrs. EN-
ma Warren Woodland of Evansville,
N. Y, who said she had read his COM
munication with intense interest. She
lis a daughter of the farmer at whose
house the soldiers stopped and she re-
called the incident perfectly, even re-
membering the remarks of her
mother. In her letter she told Mr..
Irish who was with him, what they
said and what happened, and, as his
recollection serves him it was all re-
counted accurately. She also told
him many interesting things in re
gard to happenings after the battle,
which he recalled.
Mr. Irish was naturally pleased to
hear from his little benefactress OF

GLOOM HANGING

Philadelphia, Oct. ia big black cloid
Of gloom settled down upon the thous-
ands Of fans gathered around score
boards in an sections of the city today
when Hooper raced home with the run
that gave the Boston Americans the third
game Of the worlds series. For a mo-
ment the throngs stood as transfixed and
then began to wend their way homeward
in silence, apparently taking the defeat
of their idol, the mighty Alexander,
more than the loss of the game. The To-
cal fans are stiil optimistic over the final
result, however. They place their conf
dence in either Chalmers or Rixey to
hold the hard-hitting Red Sox in check
tomorrow. At the same time they hope
the Phiilies will find their batting ege
and even up the series.
Several wagers were made tonight at
even money on the outcome Of tomor-
rows game, but there was. little Phiia-
delphia money on the final result. not
withstanding the heavy odds offered.
