U-63 MOST POWERFUL OF
CERMANY'S BIG DIVERS

The U-53 is sister ship of the famous
U-51 which made the trip from the Weser
to the Dardanelles early last year.
There are six vessels of this class in the
German navy, numbered from so to IS
inclusive. They are probably the most
powerful vessels of their type in the
world, being surpassed in certain points
only by the United States submarine
MI. launched at Quincy, Mass, on
September ID. In speed and armament
they are superior even to the MI.
Cruising Radius 1000 Miles.
The U-53 has surface displacement
of 1000 tons, surface speed of twenty
knots and cruising radius of 1000 miles.
At speed of ten knots she can carry
enough heavy oil to cruise for three
months. Her armament consists of
one 15-pound rapid fire disappearing
gun, and one 2-pound high angle gun
with anti-aircraft attachment.
She carries four torpedo tubes. two
ahead and two astern.
The U-53 is the survivor of the five
sister boats. The U-51, after sinking
the British battleships Triumph on
May rs and Majestic on May 81 in the
Dardanelles, was herself sunk by Rus
sian warships in the Black sea about June
II, 1915.
Sister Ships We're Sunk
The U-52 and U-55 were sunk in the
Strait of Gibraltar in October, 1915.
In the previous month an Athens dis
patch had reported that large German
submarine had been sunk by French
torpedo boat between Mytilene and
Tonedos, and on November the Daily
Post of Liverpool gave circumstantial
evidence of the capture, within a few
hours after leaving her base," of zone
of Germany's latest super-submarines,
ESQ feet long and carrying in addition
to torpedo tubes, four guns of fairly
large caliber.''
The council allowed an estimate of
$135 on the building of bridge on
Fifteenth South street, between Franklin
and Jefferson streets.
The contracts and bonds of Pullman
Brothers, Held & Haeberle and the Healy
Heating & Plumbing Company, all of
whom are filling contracts were received.
The city scaler reported having
weighed 219 loads during September.

set new high standard in the recently
developed art of the moving picture
with orchestral accompaniment. 1t is
the first of the productions to win its
way on it's own merits as a romance
without the accompaniment of outside
sensationalism. It has no suggestion
of immortality, makes no appeal tt
political prejudice nor patriotism, anc
has no propaganda. It tells a wonder
fully sweet. story and tells it we'll, ap.
pealing legitimately to the emotions
aroused by any work of the higest art
It's success in Los Angeles San Francis.
co" New York and Chicago are sufficient
Its appeal to woman is especially strong
from the point of view of the story
while music lovers of either sex cannot
escape the magic of it's musical setting.
Matinee prices are 25c and at night
25-35-50cents.
