CLERK OF SUPERIOR COURT
DU BIGNON GETS BLANKS
AND OTHER INFORMATION
REGARDING THE NEW LAW.
SOME QUESTIONS ASKED
Full information as to Your Past,
Present and Future Wanted
by Government Before You
Can Take Trip Abroad.

Clerk du Bignon, of the Glynn SUI
periOr court, yesterday received a
number of passport blanks, together
with copy of the new passport rules,
which went into effect on January ,,
and which are interesting. inasmuch
as it is now considered more than a
little trouble" to secure a passport if
you desire to visit a foreign country.
The new rules were adopted by the
state department some time ago, and
are covered in a bill passed by CON
gress, but it was decided not to put
them into effect until the first of the
year In the rules received by the
clerk are all instructions necessary to
securing a passport, and in the blanks
to be supplied those desiring to Sc
cure passport dozens of questions
must be answered. You must give your
name in full, where and when born
state if your parents are both citizens
of the United States. tell your ocau-
patti -. name the foreign countries y-u
desire to visit and for what purpose,
and dozens OF other such questions
must be answered and, to absolutely
establish your identity a photograph
of yourself must be pasted on the
passport.
In the Hage TO instructions sent with
the blanks, the state department gives
some valuable information to the
travellers. 1t is necessary now for
wives, children over nine years of age,
and servants to secure passports as
we'll as the head of the family.
A paragraph Of the notice says:
"American citizens going to France
from the United States are required to
bear passports visaed by French diplo-
matte or consular officers in the Unit
ed Etates. An application for a visa
should be made to the French consul
ate in this country within the jurisdic-
tion of which the applicant resides"
Another paragraph says: ''Admis-
sion to Belgium from Holland is under
stood to be practically forbidden to
travellers from England"
The department notified American
citizens that it cannot undertake to
advise Americans as to the routes
they should follow in travelling abroad.

IMPRESSION in Italy.

ROME, Jan. 3-The sinking of the
Persia has made a profound impress
sion in Italy which is reflected in the
press. This new crime is grievous
offense against civilization" says the
Gironale d'Italia, especially as it
comes almost at the time of the Aus
trian role to America with its profes-
sion of humanitarian principles"
The Tribuna recalls the fact that
during the negotiations with the
United States concerning the Lusi-
tania Germans sank the Arabic just
as now, with thae Austro-American
exchanges over the Ancona in prog
ress, the Persia has been destroyed.
The Idea Nazionale says that be-
ginning with the Lusitania and end
ing with the Persia more than 1000
unarmed persons, including women,
children and aged and i'll persons
have been sacrificed.

STEAMER GLENGYLE SUNK.

LONDON, Jan. 3.-The British liner
Glengyle, bound from Yokohama 70,
Genoa, Italy, was torpedoed and sunk
by submarine in the Mediterranean
1t is reported that several Americans
were aboard the vessel, and that the
loss of life was heavy. 1t is known
that about one hundred survivors have
been picked up by other ships. The
.Glengyle was one of the finest ships
in the Oriental service. 1t was a g.
000-ton vessel and was completed in
1914.

CONSUL M'NfEly
ONLY ONE MISSING
HE is SAID TO BE ONLY AMERI-
CAN WHO WAS LOST IN SINK
ING OF THE PERSIA.

LONDON, Jan. 3.-The number of
lives lost when the Persia sank still is
a matter of doubt --latest advices
from Cairo and Alexandria indicate
that 1853 survivors have been landed,
of whom SO were passengers. Hope
that others have been saved is dimin-
ishing, as four days have elapsed since
the vessel was destroyed
No further word has been received
concerning Robert n. McNeely,
American consul at Alden, Arabia. and
there seems to be little doubt that he
was drowned. The safety Of Charles
Grant of Boston having been estab-
lished, it is thought Mr.. McNeely is
the only American who perished.
1t still is impossible to give even
with approximate accuracy the loss
of life, as the number of persons on
board has not been established. The
II .ssengers numbered something more
and 300 members of the crew, so that
apparently the death list will run
largely in excess of 200.
Such fragmentary accounts of the
disaster as have been obtained from
survivors furnish little new informa-
ton concerning the circumstances OF
the sinking. All agree, however, that
the Persia sank with extraordinary
rapidity, within about five minutes ot
the time she was struck, affording
small opportunity for rescue work
None of the survivors who have thus
far reported their experience saw any
sign of a submarine.
The extent to which popular feeling
has been aroused in the allied nations
by the sinking of the Persia is indi
Gated by the unrestrained tone oi
press comment. There is much spec
ulations as to the possible influence OF
this event on the negotiations which
are in progress between the United

After they had watched it some
time the inquisitive creatures began
to advance. Continuing the man
oeuver, the crafty hunter gradually
enticed them within range. Then
he threw the robe from his bow and
drove an arrow through the heart
of the foremost buck.
After supplying himself with suf-
ficent meat for his journey, White
Otter continued across the plain.
At sunset he turned toward small
grove of cottonwoods. He found
an ideal camp site. with water and
grass, and he decided to camp there
for the night.
As darkness settled upon the
plain the young Sioux sat beside
his little fire and meditated upon
his task. He realized that to be
successful he must expose himself
to great peril The Pawnees were
implacable enemies, and he knew
that he could expect no mercy if
he fell into their hands. He also
knew that the undertaking demand
ed high order of skill and strategy
and for a moment he doubted his
ability. Then he recalled the deed
of the young Pawnee. He asked
himself if White Otter, the son of
Standing Buffalo and the grandson
of Wolf Robe, the great Sioux war
chief, was less daring than that
reckless lad, The mere suggestion
drove the hot fighting blood to his
brain and filled his heart with
courage, He determined to ,dupli-
cate the Pawnee's exploit or forfeit
his life in the attempt.
Having come to this bold deci,
sion, White Otter rose and walked
to the edge Of the grove The night
hush had fallen upon the plain and
the world was stilled in slumber.
The lad raised his eyes to the
heavens, The sky was studded with
