Give Those Worn
Nerves O. Rest

Don't give up. When you feel all un-
strung. when family cares seem too ha rd
to bear. and backache dizzy headaches,
queer pains and irregular action of the
kidneys and bladder may mystify you,
remember that such troubles often come
from weak Kidneys and it may be that
you only need Doan's Kidney Pills to
make you well. When the kidneys are
weak there's danger OF dropsy, gravel
and Brights disease. Don't delay. Profit

the Canadian government for the flo
tation of a new Canadian loan, ac-
cording to a statement issued by the

lowing statement:
ga group headed by j. p. Morgan
& Co., Brown Brothers & Co.. and
Harris, Forbes & Co. has been in ne
gotiation with Dominion authorities

Fabre Liner Patrie, With
Score of Americans on
Board, is Attacked By I'm
dersea Boat OFF Coast of
T1nis.
U. s. Officials Begin Inquiry
Periscope of Submersi-
bic Seen Just AS Torpedo
Passes Astern of Big
Liner.

New. York, March 16-
While carrying 20 Americans
among her 900 passengers, the
Fabre Liner Patria, a French
steamer, was attacked without
warning by a submarine off the
coast of Tunis, according to the
story told by her captain upon
the Patria's arrival today. A
torpedo fired by the submer-
sible, he said, passed 20 feet
astern of the liner.
When the Patria arrived. some days
after that at Lisbon. Portugal. the
American vice consul, Ramon I. jan
err. boarded the ship to conduct an
investigation for the purpose Of noti1
flying washington Of the circumstances
of the attack.
Captain Dechelles,, of the Patrta.
epressed the opinion that on his re-
turn to his home port he would apply
to the French government for pern1is-
sion to arm his vessel on the ground
that submarines in the Mediterranean
would not, in his opinion, refrain from
attacking merchant vessels without
warning them.
The Patria left Palmero on Feb. 29..
At 91o'c1ock the net morning. Captain
Deche1Ies said, a periscope was OBJ
served above the water and almost
simultaneously torpedo was seen ap-
preaching the vessel It came so close
that the revolving screw could plainly
be noted and swept by 20 feet astern.
Passengers on deck who saw the
torpedo created a turmoil which at
tracted the steerage passengers to the
rails and the excitement subsidized only
after the periscope disappeared
the ship sped away without being
again subjected to attack.
The Patria, after landing at other
ports, carried nearly 1000 passengers
when she arrived here today.
O1ney Arnold, Of Providence, r. T.,
American consul general at Cairo,
Egypt. was a passenger on the ship
from Naples to Lisbon He told
Captain Deschel1es that he would for
ward a full report of the attack to raae
United States government. 1t was
news to Captain DescheI1es that cable
dispatches have since reported that
Mr.. Arnold, who was returning home,
died at Lisbon the day after his ar
rival.
information received by the state
department was that he was on the
verge Of a nervous breakdown at the
time of his departure from Cairo.
The night before the submarine ap-
peared Captain Desche1les received
the warming: s'Be careful, submarine
sighted about 100 miles from Cape
De Guarde.'' by wireless from AL
giers. He remained on the bridge all
night.
The captain said he did not per-
sonaIly see the submarine or the tor
pedo, but both ware seen by his first
OFFICER and a number of passengers
None of the American passengers saw
the submarine. The Am ericans in the
first cabin included Robert Norman,
of Baltimore. He said there was very
little panic at the time.

LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER
SAYS TROOP OF SEA r
LIONS INVADE HOME

San Francisco, March 16-The
keeper of the lighthouse on Ano
Neuvo Island, below Pigeon Point,
on the California coast, has ap-
pea1ed to federal officials here for
relief from the sea lions which the
law forbids him to kill and which
have increased to such an extent
that he fears they will take pos
session of the island.
Even his private quarters are
invaded by the sea lions, he de-
clared in a communication receiv-
ed here. When he opens the doors
a troop Of young sea lions march
into the house and at meal time
the entire colony surrounds his
domicile barking for admittance.
Sleep is difficult, he says, for the
slightest disturbance during the
night was the signal for a sea lion
chorus which can be heard all
over the island. The problem will
be presented to the department of
commerce.

paid close attention to the attitude of
General Carranza and his followers.
When General Pershing wired yester-
day that he had crossed theb order
and had been joined by the Carranza
force stationed at Palomas, the major
general evinced great satisfaction.
This was heightened early today when
reports indicated a slight disturbance

than five shots were fired. none taking
