Members of Crew Claiming American Citizenship Held as
Germans-0cers of Vessel Criteise Rightly of inspection

Three members of the crew of the
Oceanic liner Sonoma, claiming Amer
lean citizenship. were removed from
the ship by Australian commonwealth
authorities at Sydney in the belief
they were Germans. according to a
story brought on the liner Sonoma to-
day The matter of their nationality
was to have been investigated shortly
after the Sonoma steamed to Honolu-
lu and San Francisco.
Officers in the Sonoma criticise
the activity displayed by colonial po-
lice in searching the vessel.
Police and special guards fairly
swarmed on the Sonoma for "a hours
before its despatch to Honolulu said
an officer today. The quest for con-
traband was carried to the most alb
surd limits
So keen were the searching parties
to discover letters or other papers
that they are said to have ripped up
the brass sill plates at the stateroom
doors. Every cubic foot of space in
the cabins occupied by the captain,
purser, surgeon, stewards and freight
clerk was overhauled. Panels we're
removed from the side of cabins of en-
gineers and other quarters occupied by
the staff and crew. -. 49,. =.
There was no reason for the ag-
gressiye manner in which the search
at the Australian port was conducted,
is an officers comment. There is
not an officer or man on this ship who
would be foolhardy enough to accept
a letter at either San Francisco Oh

After leaving Honolulu where 1t took
bunker coal and replenished supplies,
the British steamship Glenroy from
Shanghai, China, to London, went
ashore ON am isiet about 20 miles from
Singapore.

position with its forward hold awash.
1t was feared when the Nippon Maru
left Yokohama the Glenroy would be-

The vessel had been loaded with
general cargo at Seattle and Tacoma.
1t was the original intention to
steam to Japan and China direct.

The Glenroy is said to have carried
valuable freight supplied along the
Asiatic coast 1t is believed to be
well covered by insurance.
The Glenroy was built in Glasgow
in 1901 by the London and Glasgow
Co., Ltd, for the Glen line, whose
trim-looking vessels are SO well known
in the Pacific. She is of 4901 tons
gross, her dimensions being 400 by 40
by 20 feet. She was commanded by
Captain Holman, who has been for
many years in the eompany's service.

DYSPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT
a PHYSICTAN,S. ADYICR

HH1SIClANS ADVICE
indigestion and practically all
forms of stomach trouble are, nine
times out Of ten, due to acidity; there
fore stomach sufferers should, when
ever possible, avoid eating food that
Is acid in its nature, or which by
chemical action in the stomach de-
velops acidity. Unfortunately. such a
rule eliminates most foods which are
pleasant to the taste as well as those
which are rich in blood, flesh and
nerye-building properties. This Is the
reason why dyspeptics and stomach
sufferers are usually thin, emaciated
and lacking in that vital energy which
can only come from a well fed body.
For the benefit of those sufferers who
have been obliged to exclude from
their diet all starchy, sweet or fatty
food, and are trying to keep up a mis-
cradle existence on gluten products,
would suggest that you should try
a meal of any food or foods which
you may like, in moderate amount,
taking Immediately afterwards a tea.
spoonful Of bisurated magnesia in q
little hot or cold water. This will
neutralize any acid which may be
present or which may be formed. and
instead of the usual feeling of I'M
easiness and fuilness, you will md
that your food agrees with you per-
fectly. Bisurated magnesia Is doubt
less the best food corrective and food
antacid known 1t has no direct ae-
ton on the stomach; but by neutral
izing the aeidity of the food contents,
and thus removing the source OF the
acid irritation which infames the deli
cate stomach Innings, 1t does more
than could possibly be done by any
drug or medicine. As a physician, i
believe in the use Of medicine when
ever necessary. but must admit that
I cannot see the sense Of dosing an
inflamed and irritated stomach with
drugs instead OF getting rid Of the
acid the cause Of all the trouble. Get
a little bisurated magnesia from your
druggist, eat what you want at yonr
next meal and take some Of the Dt-
surated magnssia as directed above,

7 HAVE no doubt that II any Of us
living now could be reincarnated
and return and visit this old
earth in the year 1000. we
would hardly recognize the houses
chen existing. Just as we have in
the past fifty years made such strides
n sanitation and house construction. SO
The next century will see changes even
more great
The beginnings are seen even now.
First, there will be far less wood used
for the reasons that wood In itself will
be scarcer, but chiefly because it has a
fire risk and because as used today 1t
Is most unsanitary and work-making.
The contrast between our ordinary
rooms with their door-trim. window
trim holdings and other dust-catching
spaces was more noticeable when a
house room and an institution room
were compared.
In this most modern hospital room
there were no trim, holdings or wood
work of any kind. The heavy doors set
flush with the wall without any casing,
leaving an unbroken, most reStful wall
space.
Effect Is Restful.
The windows were treated the same
way, and after the first strangeness
wore away. one was bound to admit
that the effect was restful and that
from a sanitary 2point of view the
room without wood was unequalei.
m the treatment of the floor the
modern home is surely going to evolve
toward a waterproof, inSect-proof
pla site covering. Such floor will
have a continuous Dashboard without
