Wars horrors have been suffered in
great number by one Bnglishmen, al
though he has not served a day in the
army. He is Richard Busvine, member OF
the London firm OF Busvlne Brothers. who
is stopping at the Bellevue-stratford.
He has lost a brother. Along with his
family he nearly met death in a Zeppelin
raid. He has not heard from hie firm,
because of letters lost on torpedoed liners,
His business is crippled. He is anxiously
awaiting news regarding the safety Of
his home office, which is situated near
Trafalgar Square, the heart of the dis
trict reported ralded recently by Yep
pelins.
william Busvine, his brother. came to
this country last spring on business. After
transacting some business In New York,
he came TO Philadelphia and stayed at the
Bellevue -Stratford. A few days later he
sailed on the Lustania and went down
with the ship when II was torpedoed.
Richard Busvine, his wife and two chill
dren were in a house near Lowestoft, on
the English coast, when II was raided by
Zeppelins about August 9. Mr.. Busvine
and his family escaped injury, although
IA persons were killed ana ~ were lnJuIeu
in the raid. Mr. Busvine gave graphic
description today of the raid.
MY wife and I we're sitting In our
parlor reading by a lamp at about 10
o'clock at night, when we heard a peculiar
whirring noise" he said. 1T was pro-
longed and sounded like the whirring
motor of an automobile. My wife re-
marked that someone must be having
great deal OF trouble in getting his ma
chine started. Because of the previous
Zeppelin raids my suspicious were aroused
and l went TO the door to look out.
The night was pitch dark. with black,
lowering clouds II was impossible to see
the Zeppelin, as II was hidden behind
the clouds, but the whirring noise, ever
louder and louder, continued. Searchlights
were directed at the aircraft, but to no
avail The dark clouds served as q
shield for these Suddenly 1t began to
drop bombs. There were flashes in the
sky exactly like lightning. The light at
such times was powerful and showed up
every outline of the airship. although It
was at least two miles high. Nine bombs
were dropped in all. One of them fell
only a short distance from my home" =

ARABIC SURVIVOR HERE
James Houlihan Says Liner Was Sunk
Without Warning

James Houlihan, a bartender Of this
city, who was rescued when the Arabic
was sunk by a German submarine, is
safely back in this city and says he has
had enough ocean adventure to last him
a lifetime Houlihan's home is at Sl22
Shawnee street, Germantown.
The Philadelphian sailed three months
ago for ireland, his old home, and was
on his way back to this country when
the Arabic was torpedoed. He finally
made the trip on the American liner ST.
Louis.
The Arabic made no attempt to go to
the rescue of the Dunsley, the merchant
ship sunk by the submarine that later
hit the Arabic, according to Houlihan.
He believes that the undersea boat
shelled the Dunsley and then lay in wait
for the Arabic. No one on the liner saw
anything of the submarine, Houlihan
says until the torpedo was launched.

"We've certainly earned this dough;

You nearly hit me once or ttotoe-
And I nearly hit you, too"

Crawford VS.. Cravath

Those two ancient slugging rivals, sam
Crawford and GaVvy Cravath, are still
at it, Each is the long distance clouter
of his circuit and at the present writing
Cravath leads Crawford by 9S extra bases
against S5 for Wahoo Sam. Crawford
total output Of bases is 25s, against 2Zl
for the hard shifting Quaker.
Cravath is a grand free-swinging hitter
An eminent handler of the wooden mace
But as good as he is, we doubt that
he is quite as far up the Slugging Heights
as Crawford is.
Cravath's margin of extra bases comes
in his home-run total, and goodly por-
ton Of these four-sackers has resulted
from short fence barricades. Crawford,
with all his slugging ability. has belted
four home runs in American League
parks, while Cravath has piled up q.
SO here is a margin by 6S extra bases
provided for Gavvy by the home-run
route where he had shorter fences TO
fire at.
The extra-base advantage in the Ma
tional League, due to briefer pasturage
In many of the parks, is shown In the
fact that in addition to Cravath, Saier,
Long, Doyle, Hinchman, Wagner and Cy
williams have all hit for greater totals
than Cobb, Jackson and Speaker.
Yet no one would accuse several OF
these estimable athletes of being harder
hitters than the American League three
mentioned line or two above.

The Home Run Output

There isn't probably any great differ
ence in the smashing ability of the two
circuits II there is, the margin is hardly
against such batting eyes as those pos
sessed by Crawford. Cobb. Collins, Jack
son, Speaker, Fournier, Lewis and Veach.
Yet 10 date the National League has
amassed SO home runs, against rs for the
other circuit. And whatever your lean
ings you could hardly call the National
League better than a two TO one propo-
sition in the slugging line above the
American.

Smith, La, May 6.-Joe Martin
brought in the finest mess of bass
of the spring season yesterday, and
with it a strange tale. He had SO
big mouth black bass that he caught
at two hauls witch a stringing line.
Joe went out early yesterday
morning into the bayou around
Robinson point. He was using
small minnows for bait and had no
luck.
After fishing about an hour he
caught little eel, perhaps eight
inches long. He proceeded to string
the eel, declaring he was going to
have something to show anyhow.
He dropped the long stringins
line over the side of his boat and
went on fishing He fished for
nearly an hour and then caught a
5-inch trout.
He started to pull up his string
ing line to string the trout and felt
a fierce tug and after a hard strug-
gle he pulled in 10 big black-mouth-
ed bass, running from pound to
two and half pounds.
He saw in a minute what had
happened, The bass had tried to
swallow the eel, and it had slid
through their gills and stfung them.
Joe put the bass On another line
and dropped the eel overheard
gain. In Al minutes he hauled up
II more bass.

and ready to start the driver observ-
ed that the gate leading to the hotel
was open. He jumped from his rig
to close the gate. At the same in
slant the team became frighted and
started On a wild dash, Capt, Mccoy
made an effort toreach the lines but
without success.
After running about 80 yards the
buggy was overturned and had it
not been for the fact that the horses
broke lose from the vehicle the
accident may have resulted fatally.
Assistance soon reached his side and
he was carried into the Pine Tree Inn
and latter removed to the hospital,
where he is reported to be getting
along nicely.
1t is believed that the team be-
came frightened at a dead horse
which was being removed.
