System to Vatican.
(By Associated Press)

Rome, November 4.-By order of
Pope Benedict the war food ticket sys-
tenn has been applied to the 600 peo-
sons inhabiting the Vatican palace,
this number including certain cadi-
nails, priests, the Swiss Guard, door
keepers, caretakers, and servants. AL
though the Vatican domain enjoys ex-
territorial rights and is not subject
to Italian laws, the Pope issued this
order previous to its application with
in the kingdom of Italy. His order
applies not only to bread but to sugar.
and other foods.

Mr.. Williams, who like hundreds of
other people in this section, find damp
weather and uric acid in the blood a
hard enemy to fight once it has taken
hold of the system.
Acid Iron Mineral (natural iron)
is plain, everyday medicinal iron,
highly concentrated. 1t is sold by
most druggists in either six or twelve
ounce bottles under the trade mark
of the Ferrodine Chemical Corp,
which guarantees its strength and
quality.
1t has a tendency to assist the ap-
petite, digestion and kidneys, too.
Whole families use it this time of
year with excellent results to the
blood. A few drops in glass of
water makes dose. Directions with
each bottle.

Salvage From TOrpedOed
Vessels is Profitable
Valuable Catches Made Along Irish
COast-Fishermen Have Made
Modest Fortunes From
Wreckage.

Base American Flotillas in British
Waters, Oct. Correspondent of
The Associated Press) s).-Irish fisher
men along the coasts where the u
boats operate, have made some re-
markable catches during the past
year. The story of the fishermen who
found $4,000 box of diamonds from
the Lusitania in his nets one day, and
whose honesty in returning them to
their rightful owners was rewarded
by check for 1000, is we'll known.
There is another fisherman who came
home from fishing expedition with
a fine new American automobile
lashed to the deck of his little trawl-
er. There are hundreds of fishermen
who have made modest fortunes out
of salvage of one kind or another.
Wheat, flour and coal salvage are all
profitable businesses in the coast
towns nowadays.
The story of the man who came
home rom the sea with brand new
automobile is a household favorite
in the Irish ports. Accompanied by
his son he was mackerel fishing when
he was aroused by the report of an
explosion. On the horizon a cargo
steamer from America was settling
by the stern. 1t had been torpedoed.
The fishermen headed for it and soon
met the captain and crew in two open
boats. "She's loaded with American
automobiles, you might get one be-
fore she goes UNDER" said the skipper
jokinGly as he and his shipmates
passed on toward shore.
| The torpedoed ship was still we'll
above water when the fisherman came
alongside. He at once sent his son
on board to look around. The latter
found the hole full of automobiles.
Run one out through this gangway,"
directed the father. With the aid of
some tackle the machine was dropped
into the fishili>>vessel. A few mo-
ments later as the trawler steamed
away the ship disappeared. The fish
erman with an automobile is now the
envy of his village.
Many torpedoed vessels manage to
reach shore where they are usually
pounded to pieces on the rocks. But
lefOre the cargo is lost forever peo-
pie come from miles around to sal
vage it. Anything that will float is
used and everyone helps himself. Men,
vdmcn and children attack cargo and
sup, removing brass fittings and any
Ting else of value. Flour and canned |
meats, fruits and vegetables form the
larger portion Of the salvaged arti-
cles
One village has had the good for
tune to have a couple of food ships
bring up on its very doorstep. Most
Of the ships of course go down at
sea. But this does not dishearten the J
alert fishermen who have been known
to transfer several hundred sacks of
the best American flour from a YES
sci while it is sinking many miles
from land. If the explosion tears a
big enough hole in the victim much of
the cargo will become loosened and
wash ashore where it is quickly spied
by the watchful eyes of the natives.
Salvage companies also are very ac-
tive and are making huge profits.
Some have transferred their whole
Staffs to this coast. Their agents can
bid on a wheat cargo without seeing
it and can tell just how far into sack
Of flour the water will have pene-
trated in given period.

Battle Imminent Between
French and German Ships.
(By Associated Press)

Wy iSSOCldleu ITeSS)
Koritza, Albania, October 3O.-Staff
Correspondence of The Associated
Press)-A naval battle between
French and German warships is immi-
nent, which when it occurs, will not
be recorded in any official communique
though it will be in way, one of
the most unique naval engagements
of the war
Lake Ochida is large body of fresh
water lying few miles north of here.
at the point where Albania. Serbia and
Macedonia touch. 1t is 40 miles long
and 20 miles across. with towering
mountains running around it. The
north end of the lake is held by the
Germans, and the south end by the
Entente Allies. 1t has been the scene
of the latest hard fighting. when the
Entente troops made n forward drive
of thirty miles from Pagroda, at the
south end, to Padahoia far up toward
the north end.
With the Germans holding the north
end of the lake, they did not confine
Il.
iature flotilla soon made it's appear
ance with oil-burning launches about
Is feet long each mounting one gun
forward. This mosquito fleet soon
became a real menace, for it darted
to the south end of the lake, at night
and bombed the small villages along
the south shore, held by the French
Russians and Serbs. The headQuar-
ters of General Tarnahof, of the Rus
sian division operating with General
Sarrail, was in one Of these villages.
The French soon too pStepS to
counteract this menace. A small steel
craft, thirty feet long, was brought
overland from the French fleet at
Salonika. This mounted two guns, one
forward and one aft. With it came
sailors. This was soon followed by a
second 30-foot boat mounting two
guns, with its equipment of officers
and crew.
Thus two miniature fleets find them
selves face to face on Lake Ochrida,

have the advantage if larger ships
carrying more guns, but the Germans
have the advantage in number of
crafts. Their fotila consists Of six or
seven 15-foot boats mounting one gun
each.
1t seemed strange as we went along
mountain road today to see the
uniforms Of French officers and sailors
at a point so remote from the sea.
Tthey were in canton on the way
to their naval base at the south end
Of the lake. The commander, Lieut..
Dutoit, stopped for moment and
spoke enthusiastically of his little
fleet
''In bringing the boats from Salon
ika,' he said, eve took out the eli.
gines, so that the hulls weighed only
three tons. This made reasonably
easy going on the camions. There was
no mishap, the first boat is launch
ed, with her engine in place and guns
mounted, and the second will soon fol-
low. And then" he added with a !
laugh "we'll see who will do the bonn
harding"
When operations WI begin is not
certain, but plans are so far advanced |
that fight is looked for almost any
time now. With such mosquito craft
it might be considered toy battle.
