Gilkey and Secretary, Mrs. F. A. Hills.
 An entertainment committee was appointed and arrangements were immediately made for series of parties to be given for the purpose of raising money for the Red Cross fund.
 A card party, followed by a mu- sical program and refreshments was great success socially and financially. The second of the ser ies was a tea given at the pleasant home of Mrs. John Vanderbilt. Sev- eral young ladies, assisted in pour ing tea from to and from z to 10 o'clock. The house was pret- tily decorated with potted plants, ferns and the national colors.
 The sports and big dance given July 4th were a huge success Mu- sic for dancing was furnished by Harry Dott and Edgar Ladden.
 The greatest success was the carnival held July 18th in the Club house which was appropriate ly decorated for the occasion. Jit- ney dancing, country store, Igorote village, swimming match, etc. not to mention the homemade candy, tea and cake served in the Japan csc Tea Room helped the carnival spirit which prevailed throughout the evening.
 Chichagoff now has approximate ly $580 to go forward to the Red Cross Fund.

International News Service:

International News Service:
WASHINGTON, March 29.-The
lives of two more Americans were
jeopardized when a German subma-
rine torpedoed without warning the
British bark Meath last Tuesday,
Consul Frost at Queenstown cabled
the state department today. The
ship sank in seven minutes. his
message said. and while no one was
killed. the captain was taken host
age by the U-boat crew. The Amer
leans imperilled were Boatswain
Clarence Bloom of San Francisco.
and Peter webster, Negro seaman of
Pensacola
A close perusal Of Consul Frost s
dispatch convinced naval officials
that British warships succeeded in
capturing the submarine which
sank the Meath.
Consul Frost stated that the
Neath's captain was taken prisoner
by the U-Ooat commander and that
later he landed at Queenstown"
This was ineXplicable TO the state
department, but naval officials said
it probably meant the U-boat itself
was captured.
The British government does not
allow news of the capture or de-
struction of submarines to be made
public. Thus. it is believed Consul
Frost could not have stated specific
ally that the submarine was taken.
The Meath, which was bound from
Mauritius 20 Havre with a cargo Of
sugar, was IS miles off Fastnel when
the submarine attacked. She car
ried no wireless and was unarmed,
Consul Frost reported, and made = o
attempt TO resist or escape. Her
company, except the captain, was
picked up by British admiralty yes
