VACATION SCHOOL. OPENS.
1O4 Youngsters Gather for First Ex-
 ercises at the First Church,

''The finest ever' is the opinion of the faculty of the First Church Va cation Bible class concerning the class of 1916, which opened it's courses this morning at o'clock. The regis tratiOn was very gratifying to the Su- perintendent, Rev. Elmer T. Thienes, and his corps of assistants ,totalling 104, of which sixty were girls and forty-four were boys. The pupils be- gan their work in earnest and much enthusiasm was shown.
 The faculty is the largest in num- berS in the schools existence and each member offers a special course. The pupils have been divided into classes, which will study together. Every thing is in shipshape already and this is expected to prove the banner year of the school. At the close of the term, an exhibition will be given that is certain to eclipse any previously held. In this mornings enrolment the following nationalities were rep resented American, English, French, Russian, Italian, Irish, Armenian, Jewish, Swedish Lithuanian, Persian, German, Polish and Bohemian.

New York, July 10, Wall Street, 1O.3O a. m.-The irregular tendency that chara cterized much of last weeks trading was observed at the outset of today's operations.

CHANT SUBMARINE
 REACHES AMERICA

from his course only once, when he saw what he took to be an enemy craft. Most of the time he sped along on the surface, making a round fourteen knots an hour with his powerful twin Diesel oil engines. Submerged he could go at the rate of 1-2 knots.
 Approaches Coast in Dark
 Approaching the capes late Satur- day, Captain Konig found his path ap- parently clear. He laid to with his decks awash, however, waiting until darkness fell before nearing the coast. When the bright half moon went down shortly after midnight, he put on all speed and shot between the Virginia capes, to be greeted by the tug Timmons, sent there more than a week before to await his com ing.
 On board the submarine are the captain, first and second officers and twenty-six men, all wearing the reg ulation uniforms of the German mer- chant marine. The skipper is a trim, slightly built man of medium height, around forty years of age. Two of his seamen are grizzled old tars, but all the rest are youths apparently averaging from eighteen to twenty three.
 Cheered By Other Crews.
 When the vessel was released from quarantine she moved up the river to the pier of the Eastern Forward ing company, six miles away, to a carefully guarded waiting berth. On the way up she passed dozen mer- chantmen lying at anchor. The first, a big Norwegian freighter, dipped her flag and her whole ships company lined against the rail and gave three rousing cheers, where were answered with a will. With another Norwe- gian and two Dutch ships the subma- rfne exchanged formal salutes. She moved close by a number of British sramps in silence, observed with eag- CT interest by the English crews.
 At the dock the boat was hardly tied up before an army of newspaper men and moving picture photograph CTS stormed the place.
 They were not permitted to get near the Deutschland, protected by a barbed wire stockade and numerous guards but Captain Konig soon ap- peared on shore and cheerfully posed before the cameras

 The names and addresses of the visitors are then secured and the health board plans to keep them un- der surveillance for at least a week to await a possible outbreak of paralysis. It is thus hoped to be able to nip the disease in the bud should it develop here.

zone of the British cruisers ana de- Stroyers. We sighted their smoke frequently, but only dived when we thought there was danger of our pelng detected. Every time we came to the surface, if all looked well, we kept on gong. We saw no British battleshlps In the North Sea, only cruisers and destroyers. We did not on the entire trip come into close proximity with any man of war.
 From the North Sea we went straight through the English Channel, alive with Warships, and on the night of the fourth day we submerged and remained still all night, on the ground, the bottom of the chan nel. Then next morning we proceeded through the channel into the Atlantic ocean.
 Feat Is Practical. Our trip has demonstrated that the big merchant submarine is practical and that it has come to stay. We ex- pect the venture to be a great fnan- cial success. This ship can carry a cargo Of 1000 tons and on this trip carried 750 tons of dyestuffs, valued at $1,O00,O00. The charges for the
  of the Deutschland, about $500, ,000.
 'On this trip we carried no mails nor did we carry money or securities. Also we came without insurance, run ming entirely at our own risk.'
 Did you bring a message from the Kaiser to President Wilson ?" the cap tain was asked.
 No, we did not" Captain Konig re- l1ied with emphasis. That is a plain lie.''
 German Consulate Confident.
 Confident that no serious attempt will be made to question the mer- chantman status of the submarine Deutschland the Baltimore German Consulate today te1egraphed Count Won Bernstorff at New York that it would be unnecessary for any rep resentative of the embassy to hurry here to look after the interests of the underwater liner.
 There is said to be on board a large sack of diplomatic mail, bearing the seal of the Imperial German govern m ent.
 Customs officials enphatically re- fused to make public the contents of the boats manifest.
 The bill of health from the Ameri- can Consul at Bremen shows that the cargo consists of dye stuffs.

This key is the sigr that we have opened the gates which Great Britain tried to shut upon us and the trade of the world. The gates which we opened with this key will not be shut again Open door to the trade of the world and freedom of the oceans and equal rights to all nations on the ocean will be guaranteed by Germany's victory in this struggle for our existence.'
 Captain Konig's own story of the Deutschland's voyage was told to newspaper correspondents soon after he made public his prepared state ment. He laughed at stories of his being chased far off his course by ene- my vessels, and declared that during the entire trip the vessel travelled submerged only about ninety miles.
 '1 have seen," said the captain, "statements that we were forced to go hundreds of miles out of our course in the Atlantic because of Brittch warships. That is not so. Why should we go out of our course, except to submerge and that is the simple and most effective way to get out of to submerge.

 All of her 315 feet of greenish gray hull was standing well above water as the Deutschland was lowed to her dock. It was before ' o'clock in the morning and rain was falling steadily but there was a big, eagerly curious crowd waiting. Old water front salts and landsmen alike gazed with open-eyed wonder. The big craft ap- peared like some giant fish of the deep, with two periscopes for eyes. Her main superstructure reached full ly fifteen feet above waterline. Amid ships the coming tower extended still higher and above all lowered the major periscOpe. On the starboard side an emergency periscope was ready in case the other failed. Three hatchways led below decks, one for ward, one aft and the main hatch way extending through the coming tower amid ships.
 Army of Guards.
 Extraordinary precautions have been taken to protect the Deutsch- land. AS she reached her dock an army of guards drove away all river
 craft and a huge chain of logs was | drawn around her to prevent vessels from approaching within a hundred 1 feet of the ship. On the land side of | the dock high board fence Teaching 1 far into the river had been erected. | On top of the fence are half dozen rows of heavy barbed wire and cur l tained with burlap to shut off all view !

Chickens On The Farm

Appearing at first thought to be
an item of small interest, but in
fact a matter Of great Importance,
is the report which comes from all
over the county that the farmers
generally are giving a great deal OF
attention to chicken raising. 1t is
said more chickens are being raised
this year than ever before In the
county, and this Is attested to a
considerable degree by the fact
that every day sees wagons loaded
with poultry In Batesville, A local
concern a few days ago shipped a
car of live poultry to Missouri
