London-The White Star liner
Arabic, bound from Liverpool for New
York with $50 passengers, 26 of whom
were American citizens. and crew
of 243, was torpedoed without warn
ing by German submarine off Fast
net Light and sank within IL minutes.
Three hundred and ninety-one sur
viyors have been landed at Queens
town and other ports. The remaining
80 are believed to have been lost Not
more than six of them, it is reported,
were passengers.
1t has not yet been determined
whether any American lives were lost
In the first official lists of survivors
compiled the names OF 10 Americans
known to have been aboard as pas
sengers fail to appear.
Great Hole Torn In Ship.
The torpedo struck the liner on the
starboard side. about 100 feet from the
stern. 1t tore great gap in the ships
side, making the water-tight compart-
ments useless. The scene of the tor
pedoing was about 40 miles from Old
Head off Kinsale, the grave of the
Lusitania
The White Star Line issued an Off
cial statement containing the state
ment of Captain Finch OF the Arabic,
in which he asserts that the liner was
torpedoed without warning.
In view of the fact that the vessel
was westbound, and that she carried
neither guns nor ammunition, London
received with stupefaction the news OF
the attack. 1t was hardly believed
possible here, considering the tension
between the United States and Ger.
many over previous submarine attacks
that Berlin would give deliberate prov.
ocation to the United States Govern
ment

fcult to conceive a motive for the at

A VALUABLE SUGGESTION
IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE

1t is now conseded by physicians that the kidneys should have more attention as they control the other organs to a remarkable degree and do a tremendous amount of work in removing the poisons and waste mat ter from the system by Altering the blood
 During the winter months especially when we live an indoor life, the kid neys should receive some assistance when needed as we take less exer- else. drink less water and often eat more rich heavy food. thereby forcing the kidneys to do more work than Nature intended Evidence of kidney trouble. such as lame back, annoying bladder troubles, smarting or burning brick-dust or sediment sallow com plexon, rheumatism, may be weak or irregular heart action. warns you that your kidneys require help immediate ly to avoid more serious trouble.
 Many physicians claim that an herb al medicine containing no minerals or opiates has the most healing influ- ence An ideal herbal compound that has had most remarkable success as kidney and bladder remedy is Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root

JUAREz MAKES PLANS ? AS IF PREPARING ID
 STAGE REAL FIGHT

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Plans for the Johlson-Willard championship battle at Juarez, Mexico, an March 6 are rapidly being completed. The promot. CTS have established permanent quar- ters at Fl Paso. just across the inter- national boundary, and have mapped out a long list of details which must be arraned before the principals en- ter the rin. Training quarters lor champion and challenger have been selected and the preliminary workout will begin within the next two weeks.
 Willard will do his conditioning in the suburbs of El Paso where the summer nome onfe of the leading citizens has been placed at his dis posal Located on one of the principal bouievards of the city it will be easy .of access and the surrounding rounds and stables afford excellent facilities for both indoor and outdoor work. Johnson will prepare on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande Training quarters have been secured for him in the JuJarez opera house and accom- mcdations for himself and staff of helpers in a nearby cottage
 Must Consider Altitude
 Both pugilists are planning to ar. rive at the training camps early next month in order that they may become accustomed to the rarefied atmos- phere Both El Paso and Juarez have an altitude of close to 40O0 feet and training conditions are vastly differ ent from those prevailing at lower levels.
 This was brought out sharply in the Johnson Jeffries ontest i'm 1910 After spending some weeks in conditioning at close to sea level near San Fria- cisco, the camps were shifted to l,eno, the th" governor ordered the pugiiists out of California. Tne change to the Nevada town at an altitude of approximately 45OO feet set baca the training for fully a week while prir- cipals and helpers were adapting the aaelves to the ligat1r air
 Five Weeks off Training
 Under the present schedule the boxers will have from four to five weeks in which to prepare for the contest which is none too long nder the circumstances Willard is ex- pected to stare his serious work at El Paso on or about February l and Johnson is due to arrive at Juarez about three days later By that date the arrangements for staging the bat tie vii have been completed.

FOOT A DAY WILL BE ADDED FOR
 NEXT TWO WEEKS

ROOSEVELT DAM. Feb Rap idly falling temperature in the high mountain valleys. whence comes the water for the reservoir, cut down the inflow from the rainstorms of Fri day. and at o'clock this evening the elevation of water behind the dam was 171.4O. This gives the lake a content of 613.OO0 acre feet.
 Two and half feet of water poured over the intake dam at 6 o'clock p. m. and the flood showed little sign of decreasing during the night
 The prediction Of an average of about a foot a day to the elevation of the reservoir for the next two weeks seems to have been well founded Not all Che water resulting from the storm can be measured at the dam yet, for a large part of it remains on the watershGd in the form of snow and ice. Before the run-off has progressed much further the previous high water mark of 179.32 feet will have been passed and with the prospect of no water or very little being used for Irrigation or power purposes before the spring irrigation season in arch and with the further prospect of immense quantities Of melted snow coming in during the breakup in April it. is almost certain that the coming sea son will find the reservoir better equipped than ever before to take care for the lands in the valley
