to most of the survivors, the Lusitania
sank within thirty minutes after she
was torpedoed. Some say they saw
the periscope of a submarine after
they had taken to the boats.
The Lusitania went down by the
head, causing great suction that pull
ed down several boats still alongside
her as she plunged. Most of the occu-
pants We're drowned.
Among the victims was woman
with a little baby. She was sitting OPP

the Lusitania took her final plunge.
The boat was drawn down and more
than a score drowned.

The foregoing paragraph is the body
of the first speech John Adams made
to the American congress, December

An interesting comparison of the pa
pers of more than a century ago and
modern newspapers is gained by an ex-
animation of the war news from Eu-
rope. Napoleon was then fighting with
Berthier, near Zurich. The latest news
received on January 4, was from Lon
don, Paris and Hamburg mails Of Oc-
tober 20, and many of the dispatches
in the foreign newspapers were dated
September 10 or earlier, the news
reaching this country four months af-
ter the battles occurred.

How Two Lost Brothers Were Brought
Together.

The American Magazine has been of
4 fering prizes for the best letters in q
contest entitled, 1.-The Most Extraor.
binary Coincidence ] Know Of" In
the July issue the six prize-winning
letters are published. One of these
stories reports as follows, the remark
able way in which two lost brothers
were brought together:
"Some years ago woman writer
who was Independently wealthy and
Travelled extensively was visiting a
friend in San Francisco. a city with
! which she was very little acquainted.
The day OF her departure her hostess
presented her with one of Henry
James novels to read on her journey.
On her way to the train with this book
in her hand, she passed a little Ger
man watchmaker's shop, Having time
to spare she went in, had a trihing
repair made on her watch, and when
the matchmaker handed her his bust
ness card, put it in her book as a
marker, and promptly forgot it.
For various reasons the book was
not finished during the trip to the east,
and two years later, when she was
planning a voyage TO Europe she came
across il, still unread, and packed it to
read on shipbosrd. However, neither
on the way over nor during a six-weeks'
visit did she open the book, and ii was
only on almost the last day OF the re-
turn trip that she took IL out on deck
10 finish reading il.
"As she seated herself in her deck
chair she noticed near her young
man, evidently a foreigner, who had
interested her several times by his ex-
preston OF melancholy and loneliness,
but whom she had not met. She made
some trifing remark to him, and TO her
horror he burst into tears. Quickly
sympathetic, she drew from him the
story which had reduced him 10 this
state OF sensibility. She learned that
he had lost his parents, his sister and
two brothers in an epidemic in Ger
many, that ne was utterly alone in the
world except for a brother 20 whom he |
was now journeying in America, and /
he had not heard from his brother 4
for several years nor had told him OF
