-Four Of General Pershing's Family
Perish in Burning Preside Home

San Francisco - Warren Pershing,
five-year-old son of Brigadier General
John j. Pershing, rescued early Satur-
day from his burning home at the
Presidio of San Francisco, in which
his mother and three sisters, Mary
Margaret, Anna and Helen, were
suffocateJ and burned, awaited the
home coming of his father.
General Persing, commanding troops
on the Mexican border, left FL Paso
Immediately when informed that his
wife and three of his four children
were dead.
United States Senator Francis E.
Warren, father of Mrs. Pershing, will
come here from Cheyenne, Wyoming.
Warren, the only one left of the
Generals family of FIVE, is being
mothered by nurses at the Lettermanr
general hospital at the Presidio. He
was taken there when he was picked
up unconscious on the floor of his bed
room by officers and men who crawlet
through the burning house searching
for Mrs. Pershing and her four chill
dren. Warren revived quickly. The
others were dead when the rescuerl
reached them, suffocated and theil
heads, hands and feet burned.

nPreparedness."

German preparedness did not keep
Germany at peace far longer than
other nations" The German prepar-
edness is yicious-they have been held
to peace and tricked and threatened
into peace year after year. They were
spelling for fight because they were
so prepared. Preparedness always
breeds turbulence and it's horrible
thing that we've got to get prepared
It's a dangerous thing, but just now
the infinitely greater danger is in our
utter unpreparedness. We must be
able to defend ourselves-and know
how to stop when we've reached that
point--Booth Harrington.

Cartoons Magazine for September.

The present crisis between the Uni

world Some of the best of these are
reproduced in the September Cartoons
Magazine. A French artist, for in

a huge club, labeled Right" Ger

woman, wearing a helmet, looks bel
ligerently at him from a chair. Uncle
Sam, with a threatening gesture, re-
minds her that perhaps she can read
this better than if it were scrap of
paper"
An Australian cartoonist has the
kaiser plucking, one by one, the tail
feathers from the American eagle.
The feathers are marked respectively,
"Lusitania," "Gulflight." william P.

scented as saying, "She loves me

to their death Lieutenant Alfred L..

cessfully raised Sunday and at a
O'Clock p. m. was towed to quarantine.
Although the F-4 has been brought
into the harbor, the wreck is still sub
merged to the depth Of 6 feet and
probably will not be drydocked until
several days have elapsed. Nothing
has been divulged by naval officials re-
garding conditions, if known, inside
the boat.
The actual raising operation occu-
pied two hours, the plans of the en-
gineers working without hitch The
still submerged derelict was towed
slowly into the harbor, where all the
shipping, including the interned Ger
man gunboat Geier, half-masted their
flags.

HOW TO HEAL STUBBORN
TORMENTlNG SKIN DISEASES

A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive
home treatment for people suffering
with eczema, ringworm, heat-rash and
similar itching, burning skin troubles
At any reliable druggists get jar
of resinol ointment and cake of resi-
mol soap. These will not cost a bit
more than seventy-five cents. With
the resinol soap and warm water
battle the affected parts thoroughly,
until they are free from crusts and
the skin is softened. Dry very gent
ly, spread on thin layer of the resi-
mol ointment, and cover with light
bandage-if necessary to protect the
clothing. This should be done twice
day. Usually the distressing itch
ing and burning stop with the first
treatment, and the skin soon becomes
clear and healthy again.-Adv.

Won Iirpi1 Is Reported to Have

BLAMED FOR DESTRUCTION OF ARABIC
Determined Attitude Of Americans Is
Believed to Have Had Intended
Effect On German Plans.

Washington, D. c. = Admiral Won
Tirpitz, Germany's sea lord, may be
relieved from Office as a result Of the
submarine concessions made to the
United States. This directing officer
of the German navy, the real father of
the submarine plan to destroy com
merce with England, irrespective of
the fate of innocent men, women and
children, still is fighting the proposal
of the Berlin government to respect
the rules of humanity and information
al law upon the high seas.
There is suggestion in diplomatic
circles in Washington that Won Tirpitz
is really responsible for the sinking of
the Arabic. 1t is even said that when
directed to issue instructions to the
submarine commanders not to attack
passenger liners, save under the rec
ognized procedure, he failed to do so,
leaving these commanders to act under
the old instructions.

or Wilhelm to stand behind his cam

granted through Herr Won Jagow, Ger

In this connection, it is worthy o

SubmersibIe Oil Tanks for Supplying
Submarines.

The ability of the German submar-
fles to keep at sea for indefinite per-
iods when hundreds of miles from any
German naval base has been one OF
the surprises of the war. 1t is now
suggested that the Germans may have
established secret submarine bases
consisting of submersible oil tanks at
unfrequented points along the Nor
wegian coast and among the islands
at the west and north of Scotland, and
that the enormous supplies OF oil re-
quired for the operation Of these yes
GELS is obtained from this source. This
could be accomplished by means OF a
submersible tank that had already
been invented for commercial pur-
poses before the war began. This tank
is cylindrical, is $50 IT. long and 80 IT.
in diameter, and has an oil capacity
of 2.280 tons. 1t is divided into four
or more compartments which can be
used for various grades OF oil and can
be emptied separately or together.
Each end of the tank is divided verti-
ca1ly into two compartments, the up
per compartment being utilized as a
pump house and the lower as ballast
or trimming tank. With these trim
ming tanks, which can be filled with
sea water OF emptied by means OF
electric pumps, the cylinder can be
| floated or submerged, or can be made
to float at an angle with the pump
house at one end above water. All
electrical oil pump forms part of the
equipment. When a submarine OF
other vessel is to replenish its bunk
ers it comes alongside, couples it,
electric cables to the pumps in thu
valve house and pumps out the re
quired supply of oil, after which thu
tank is sunk to the depth required TO
concealment A picture of one o
these supply tanks in use appears II
