Survivors Landed at Malta,

Washington, Nov. 13.-The Ameri- can consul at Malta cabled Secretary Lansing today that forty-one of the crew and four passengers of the Ar coma, none of them Americans, had been landed at Malta by the British steamer Brodlea.
 This one despatch was the only overnight information received by the state department whose officials still cannot understand the lack of off ciaI informat tion.
 AS yet there is nothing official to indicate the nationality of the sub marine which attacked the Ancona or the circumstances of the attack, including the issue as to whether there was warning.

went with his company to Boston and
during the siege of that city by the
army under General Washington the
twenty-year-old boy was promoted to
be a captain for bravery and eff
cheney.
When the British evacuated Bos-
ton and sailed for New York a greater
part of the American army went down
that way. Captain Hale and his regi-
ment were among them. They took
part in all the hardships Of that cam
paign.
Late in the summer of 1875, when
the British had driven the American
army from Long Island, General
Washington was particularly anxious
to establish some sort of secret in
formation line into New York. He
tried many plans without success.
Finally he summoned his officers TO a
council and told them to be on the
lookout for some bright, courageous
man who would undertake the dan
gerous task. He spoke, among others,
to Colonel Knowlton of Knowlton's
Rangers, the regiment TO which Cap
tain Hale was attached.
Colonel Knowlton conferred with
his officers. When ne put the propo-
sition to them every cheek paled. II

all knew he would be hanged as a
spy. The word spy is a horrible one
to an honorable man. No one volun-

a few moments there was a hush in
the room. Then Captain Hale walked
in and said:
Il will undertake It, sir"
Captain Hale had been sick in bed
for some time, and his fellow officers
crowded about him seeking to dis
suade him from his purpose. Among
them Capt William Hull, a classmate
of Hales at Yale, spoke the longest

SHOULD cool OFF GRADUALLY
mistake to Turn the Hose on Per
spring Team, Is the Assertion
of Veterinarian.

In the not weather there are al
ways a number of fools who think
they are kind to their horses when
they turn hose on them and drench
them with cold water TO Thoroughly
cool them of, said a veterinarian as
he stopped a driver from throwing
water over his pereuiring team. If
the horse is overheated." he contin-
4ed, the shock of such bath on
the region where the kidneys are sit
uated is enough to kill it, and even if
1t does no apparent harm the horse
VIII succumb much more readily to
the heat afterward After a horse has
been working in the broiling sun it
should be cooled off as gradual as
possible. The first thing to do is to
take a sponge and wash out it's mouth
This removes the saliva, which is poi
sonous, and refreshes the animal
greatly, before it can be allowed 10
have drink. After this the horse
should have its four legs bathed-the
hind ones as far as its launches, the
front ones UP to the chest. Then it
is safe to wet its head, neck and the
part of its neck Immediately behind
the neck. Care should be taken, how
ever, to keep the region of the kid
neys perfectly dry. This habit of
driving team up before a fire en-
CINE house and playing a hose indis-
criminately over their bodies is &C
countable for the death of many good
horses every summer.

In such manner did Captain Hale
turn spy. That night he left the car. p
at Harlem Heights dressed in the
brown garments and broad brimmed
hat of schoolteacher. He was ac-
companied short distance by Ser
geant Hampstead and his faithful serv-
ant, Ansel Wright. who arranged to
have a boat ready for Captain Hale
for his return, September 90.
Nathan Hale had no trouble in pene-
trating the British lines He went to
New York and over to Brooklyn, care

number of British soldiers, their can

Notifications, in Latin, and concealed
it in followed out place in one of his
boot heels.
September 10 he began his return.
He spent the night at farm house
near the place where the boat was to
wait for him. The next morning he
went to breakfast at a little wayside
inn, THE Cedars," kept by a widow
named Chichester. During his meal a
man entered and stared at him. Cap
tain Hale paid little attention, as ne
thought he was safe by now.
AS soon as the meal was finished he
| hurried off to the rendezvous. 1t was
misty morning AS Hale approached
the beach he saw beat pulling in.
Glad almost beyond belief to be rid of
| his dangerous task he hurried down
to meet 1t. Too late he realized that
instead of Sergeant Hampstead and
Ansel Wright the boat was filed with
British marines. He turned to run,
but the marines caught him.
What are you doing out so early?''
a marine demanded.
Isn't 1t proper for a schoolteacher
to get a breath OF fresh air?" Hale
asked in reply.
why did you rum"
i thought you were rebels"
The marines would not believe
Hale's assertions of innocence and be.
gan to search him. They looked ev.
erywhere without success. One pulled
off his boots and reached inside. Moth.
ing suspicious had been found and
the marines reluctantly were prepar
ing to turn him loose when one OF
them, with an oath, threw the boot he
held at a tree. That tore away the
strip that covered the secret hiding
place and the papers fell out.
Captain Hale was then taken aboard
a frigate in the harbor and later to
New York, where General Howe ques
toned him. There was nothing to dc
