London, Oct 31.-The number of
those missing from the British steam
er Marina has been reduced to thir-
teen, according to a telegram from
Consul Frost at Queenstown to the
American embassy here. Fifty-two of
the survivors were landed at Castle
town.
THIRTY-sIx AMERICANS WERE
ABOARD
There were no less than thirty-six
Americans on board of whom sixteen
were landed at Brookhaven, and there
will probably be some American fatal
tiles, Consul Frost said. Mr.. Frost is
obtaining afidavits from the survi-
vors.
The American consul at Glasgow
wired the embassy that the Marina
sailed from there October 25th for
Newport News with fifty Americans
on board.

TRAMMELL
WILL SUPPORT
THE TICKET
Crawford and West Join Him in
Endorsing Knott as the
Party Candidate

Hon. George P. Raney, Chairman,
Democratic Campaign Committee,
Jacksonville, Fla.
Dear Sir: Answering your COM
munication of recent date beg to say
/ am always ready to champion the
cause of democracy and to work for
the democratic party, and while the
official demands upon me at the pres
ent time are numerous, / shall be
glad, if my official duties will permit,
to make one or more speeches in be-
half of the democratic party and the
principles it advocates.
In President Wilson our party has
furnished the nation the greatest
president who has occupied the White
House for half century. During his
term more good legislation has been
enacted than in any other similar pc
riod during the history of the repub-
lie.
Under democratic administrations
for forty years, our own state has
been blessed with good government
and a faithful administration of the
public affairs. I feel that there is ev-
cry reason Cor democrats to feel proud
OF the splendid record of achieve
ments made by this party, and to
cause them to rally to the support of
it's nominees in the present campaign.
For the good of the nation and the
good of our own state, l trust that
every Florida democrat will go to the
polls on November z, and assist in
giving to our party nominees great
victory. Yours very truly,
Park Trammell.
George P. Raney, Chairman, Demo
cratic Campaign Committee, Jack
sonville, Fla.
My Dear Sir: Replying to your tel
egram requesting me, as one of the
candidates of the democratic party, to
take an active part in the present
campaign in support of the party
nominees, beg to say that I intend to
vote the straight democratic ticket
from president down, but on account
of official duties that / owe to all the
people of this state, must decline to
campaign and make speeches to the
voters, as requested in your telegram.
Yours very truly,
II. Clay Crawford,
Secretary of State.
George P. Raney, Chairman, Jack
sonville, Fla.
My Dear Sir: Your wire and letter
duly received. 1t goes without saying
that I will always cheerfully do my
part in upholding and defending the
principles for which the democratic
party stands and in the success of the
party nominees to all offices, and I
am of course willing to give such of
my time to this campaign as the bus
mess of the office which / hold will
permit.
1t is necessary for me to go to
South Florida now for the trial of sew
eral important cases there in which
the state is interested, which will
probably run through several days,
and therefore, cannot state definite
ly what time l shall be able to devote
to this purpose.
Yours very truly, T. F. West.

Berlin, Oct. 31.-"The situation is

A sM1LE WORTH WHILE

It's hard to keep smiIins when troubles
are pilinS their weight on your neck till
it's sprained; it's hard to keep lrinnins
when others are winning the prizes for
which you have strained. Its hard to be
CHEEKY on days wet and dreary, when
everything near you looks drowned; it's
hard to be sunny when all your money 10
sunk in hole in the ground. It's hard to
keep laughing when wearily quaf6ne the
aafon Of grief to the drels; it's harder to
frolic when you have the collie. or eout At
the end Of your legs. But how will i. aid
you, to rumble and srumble and swear
There's nothing that's healing 10 kicking
the ceiling, or biting the runss from

an9uish 10 present, and yet it's strictly
worth while; not all Of your scowlinf and

They Misinfor the Measles.

In Japan the nursery is still protect ed from the inroads of measles and other infections by means of an in- scription over the nursery door saying with exquisite urbanity "this child is not at home." In the Welcome His torical Medical museum, says the Lon don Lancet, most fascinating exhibi- tiOn is on view, illustrative of Zap anese charms, amulets, votive offerings and objects of medical interest" among which these nursery notices occupy an important place. Akin to these mo- tices are the charms embodied as toys. A yellow tiger with a wagging head is now said to be toy, but anciently it was form of eXorcism against palsy and numbness of the limbs.
