Senator Harding seldom referred to

Taking up national defense Sena-
tor Harding brought applause when
he said the republicans believe sim
ccrely and soberly in adequate ma
tional defense"
We ought 70 have a navy that
fears none IN the world" he said, This
brought out most enthusiastic APP
plause
There was another demonstration
when he declared that republican
policies promised all the means for
expense OF adequate defense
There was laughter when he re-
ferred 10 President Wilson's speaking
tdp for preparedness and declared
the president might better have de-
voted his efforts to the democratic
majority in congress
Love, Peace and Justice
I'VE love peace and justice and we
intend to have them" said he And
we are not too proud 70 fight for
them"
All through Senator Harding's ref
ercnce TO tariff he drew applause, es-
pecially his declaration that he be-
lieyed in tariff that gave protection
and prosperity TO America first
There was more applause when the
speaker referred 10 the war munitions

Loud laughter and jeers greeted his

greeted a similar reference 10 Ireland.
His mention Of England and France
passed by without demonstration.
His condemnation OF "a few zealots
Of any nation who violated our ncu.
trality" brought prolonged applause.
The convention thought the senator
had finished his speech and began a
demonstration. Mr.. Harding, how.
ever, only stopped for a drink OF
water, and the delegates settled down
again 10 hear him finish.
The speech came 70 a close with a
peroration on Amerieanism.
There is no geographic modifca-
ton OF the Americans rights" said
Senator Harding HE demands pro-
lection everywhere"
Senator Harding referred to the
manuscript for the closing words Of
his speech and the convention, rcaliz-
ing he was closing, listened intently
and then broke into great applause as
he closed with the words, and we
may rejoice to be republicans

THE WITCH''

In presenting to the American
public Nance O'Neil in 1.-The Witch"
William Fox believes that he is CIV

played by Miss O'Neil in THE
Witch" is the part whereby she
made famous Sardou's remarkable
emotional play. THE Sorceress."
Miss O'Neil played this great part
so long and carried it to such tri-
umphant heights in the world of
stage art, that it has almost been a
part of her.

There is no question but "The

A. j. Nelson vas in during the
week to look after business in con-
nection with his mining industry
near Cherry Creek. Mr.. Nelson
like many others. is enthusiastic over
the possibilities in this county in the
mining line. Since his last visit to
Ely he has located six claims adjoin-
ing the property of Joe Carbon in
Antoine Pass and on which there is
an excellent showing of hubnerite.
Mr.. Nelson says that one of the most
attractive strikes that he has seen
in a long time is that made by Lew
Boyd and Bert Fillmore near The
scheelite property which he recently
disposed of to Utah capitalists. He
says the fortunate men certainly
have an excellent showing of schee-
lite and looks for much activity in
the Cherry Creek district during the
summer.

ELLIS ISLANDERS
 FACE 0RDEALS OF WAR-SWEPT CITY
Residents and Immigrants Un- der Fire of Bursting
 Shells.

New York, July 31.-visitors land ing at Immigration Station on Ellis Island yesterday afternoon might cas- fly have imagined they were on tho track of the great war and entering a town that had been besieged for sew eral days. The main builoiag on the right and the general hospital on left of the ferry slip had every window shattered, and in many caoes the frames also had disappeared. The terra cotta roof of the hospital had oaved in with the violence of the con- cussion as if it had been done by a Jack Johnson" and the lawn and graveled walks in all directions were covered with broken glass. charred wood, cindcrs, and all kinds of debris blown across from Black Tom Island, a little more than a mile away.
 The big iron-bound door leading in- to the main building and the heavy stone portico had been blown in as if with a charge of dynamite. sThe case ment of the two b.ghall windows over the entrance had been shattered, and the solid heavy castings, weighing ful. ly 2,000 pounds each, were shoretl UT with beams to prevent their collapse while a notice below warned visitors to use other doors.
 The dining room was wrecked, and the windows of the executive offices were all smashed. and in the board room, where hundreds of Immigrant. have been ordered deported, the heav, window frame fell with a quantity o' masonry right across the table that i! used by the officials when specia board of inquiry Is in session,
 Badly Damaged F1vc Years Ago Bryon H. Uhl. the deputy cominis sioner oe immigration. after makin. thorough inspection of tho maii building and the hospitals on Nos. and islands, said he believed tha $75,0O0 would not be too high an es innate to place on the damage don' by the explosion on Ellis Island. Fiv' years ago. when the giant powde' barge exploded at Communipaw, MT JThl said, the damage amounted tt s27,000, and that was trif1ins compar ed with the havoc created on this occa sion in the various buildings.
 The deputy commissioner went or
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-07-31

to say there were rs5s immigrants sleeping in the main building. 90 in the general hospital on No. 2 Island, and s9 in the contagious diseases hospital on No 3 Island, which was nearest to the explosion and bore the brunt of the concussion.
 For more than three hours shrap- nell fell on the buildings on the islam interspersed with three-inch shells. which dropped from the skies with te- dious frequency in unexpected places.
 In addition to the total of 4s2 im- migrants in the different buildings there were 125 employees on duty dur ing the night. Two of the nurses and two of the men. received slight cuts on the face by falling glass, and two of the patients were cut on the face and hands, but no one on Ellis Island was seriously injured, Mr. Uhl said.
 The only living thing that was hit by the thousands of shrapnel bullets which struck the different buildings was Toto, little black kitten. known all over the island as Chief clerk Sherman's office pet After the excite ment was over Toto was found with a bullet wound in one of his hind legs. and a surgeon dressed the injured member, much to the relief of the anil mal. F'
