When the people generally come to
accept the fact that the automobile is
a necessity and is one Of the greatest
aids to modern business efficiency,
then there will be no more thought
Of putting an extra tax on it than
there is of taxing carriages and farm

J. $. DESTROYER
 SUNK BY U-bOAT
JACOB JONES TORPEDOED BY SUBMARlNE-37 OF CREW
 WERE RESCUED.
SHE WENT DOWN QUICKLY
Brother of Commander Was First American Victim of Spanish-Amer- ican War-Destroyer Was On Pa
 trcl Duty At the Time.

Washington.-Torpedoed in night attack, the American destroyer Jacob Jones. one of the newest and largest submarine hunters of her class, WAS sunk in the war zone and tWo-thirds Of her crew were lost The disaster brings to the American people the first naval loss of great consequence since the country entered the war.
 Thirty oi her officers an1 crew were taken off in life rafts The remainder are not accounted for in dispatch from Vice Admiral Sims, who forwarded the names of 10 of the survivors.
 Lieut.. Commander David Worth Bagley, brother of Mrs. Josephus Dan lels, wife of the secretary of the navy, and whose brother was the first Amer ican officer to give his life in tue Spanish-American War, does not ap. pear in the list of survivors.
 1nasmuch as Admiral Sims men toned other officers among the sur vivors and did not name Bagley, It Is feared he went down with his ship.
 The complement of the Jones in peace times was five officers, five pet ty officers and ST enlisted men. Un- doubtedly this has been increased to hundred or more From the first report it would appear that the loss of life would be upward of 60.
 The attack, which was at o'clock at night, was delivered by torpedo In the rolling, icy seas of North At lantic winter weather the submarine probably had plenty of opportunity to pick her time for the shot. The submarine probably came upon the destroyer patrolling her course in the dark and had all the best of the engagement.
 Nos details were contained in the report, but it has been the case here tofore that when a submarine gets a hit on destroyer il is more due to chance meeting and good opportunity than fighting skill on the part of the submarine. The large loss of life would indicate that the torpedo, with its deadly charge of high explosive made fair hit plump on the de stroyer's thin hull, and that the sub marine hunter probably was blown in two
 That she went down quickly is evi- denced by the fact that nothing is said of survivors getting off in life boats. Those saved got off on rafts, which probably fioaied of the sinking ship as she plunged down in the icy darkness.

FRENCH SHIP BLOWS
 UP AFTER COLLISION
BIG SECTION OF TOWN LAID WASTE BY MUNlTtON BLAST
 THOUSANDS ARE INJURED.

Halifax, N. S.-Between 500 and 1. careful estimates. when the French munitions ship Mont Blanc blew up in Halifax harbor after a collision win the Iona. Belgian relief steamship. Thousands were injured, and it is ex- pected many of them will die. Virtually all the north end of the city was laid waste and the property damage will run far into the millions. A part of the town of Dartmouth, across the harbor from Halifax, also was wrecked. Nearly all the build ings in the dock yard there are in ruins.
 The zone of destruction in Halifax itself extends from the North Street railway station as far north as Afric- vile to Bedford Basin and covers an area of about two square miles in the section known as Richmond. The buildings which were not demolished by the force of the terrific explosion were destroyed by the fire which fol lowed
 Scores or persons were injured by the collapse of the railway station. Arena Ring, Military Gymnasium, su- gar refinery and elevator.
 All business has been suspended Armed guards of soldiers and sailors are patrolling the city. Not street car is moving and part of Halifax is in darkness. All hospitals and many private houses are filled with injured. Temporary hospitals and morgues have been opened in schoolhouses in the western section of the city.
 The damage along the water front cannot yet be estimated. Many of the men composing the crews of the ships in the harbor were killed or injured. On one steamer, the Pictou, 1t Is re. ported that B of the crew of 42 were killed. Bodies of many seamen have been picked up in the harbor Rescue parties working along the ruins of buildings are removing the bodies of the dead
 The collision which resulted in prob
 
 Of the Dominion occurred near Pier 8 in the narrows leading from tho harbor to Bedford Basin. The muni- tions ship was bound from New York for Bedford Basin when the relief ship loma. bound for the sea, crashed into her.
 The Mont Blanc was pierced on the port side almost to the engine room. The other ship. which was only slightly damaged, backed away when flames burst out on the munitions ship and was abandoned by the crew. The captain of the Mont Blanc also ordered his crew to the boats, as he realized an explosion was inevitable. The men reached shore safely before the tremendous blast F minutes la. ter, which blew their ship to pieces and wrecked largo part of the city.

TEUT0NS ATTACK
 TOWARD TRENTINO
WOULD COMPEL RETREAT OF GEN. DlAZ'S ARMIES FROM
 THE MOUNTAINS.

Austria-Hungary, with whom the United States is on the eve of de- claration of war as the principal ally of Germany, is taking the lead in q new attempt to break through the present Italian front, compel the re- treat of General Diaz's armies from the mountains, capture Venice and permit the Austro-German invaders to swarm over wide extent of the northern Italian plains.
 Failing to pierce the Piaye river line in many attempts and flung back from the mountain passes between the Piave and the Brenta by the dogged Italian resistance, the Teu- tons have turned further westward to the Trentino region, northwest of As iago, and are reported beginning an attack in force on the Sette Communi plateau.
 A heavy concentration of Austro- Hungarians has been observed in this sector as many as 10 divisions Of troops being employed, according to the indications. On Monday night the massed artillery began an eX- tremely violent hombardment, and this appears to have been followed by the throwing of strong columns of infantry against the Italian defenses.
 First reports of the infantry move ment came from Berlin, the German staff announcing that some of the hill positions on the Setti Communi had been taken by Field Marshal yon Hoetzendorf, the Austrian general commanding the offensive army Con- fdence has been expressed, however, that with the French and British at hand and in considerable force in northern Italy to reinforce the Italian armies, a successful stand could be made against any further progress for the invaders. A break in the Italian line at the point of the present at tack would flank not only the Piave line but render the line of the Bren- ta, approximately 30 miles to the rear, impossible to hold. and would com. pei an Italian retreat to the Adige, some 30 miles further westward
 Roumanian troops are now said to be joining the Russians in negotia- tions for an armistice with the central powers. Berlin sends this report, which has not been confirmed from other sources.
 The plight of the Roumanian army, in event of the cessation of hostilities by the Russians, is known to have been the subject of anxious considera- tion on the entente side. Roumania is isolated from her western allies and has been dependent upon Russian support, the withdrawal of which would leave her front exposed on the north and her army open to imminent danger of envelopment.

The visiting nurses will plan for the care and treatment of tuber- culosis, of which it is said there are 25.00e cases in Arkansas.
 Governor Brough issued the follow ing statementl
 'The Arkansas Public Health As. sociation, which is a branch of the National Public Health Association, is carrying on very commendable campaign to place visiting nurses in each county of the state for the care and treatment of the dread tubercu- losis. It is estimated by the state health authorities, that there are 25,- 900 cases of tuberculosis in Arkansas. and last year there were over 2,300 deaths from the great white plague.
 The Red Cross seals cost only q penny apiece, and the proceeds from the sale of these seals will be used in placing visiting nurses in every county in Arkansas, treat tubercu. losis patients. Fifty-four counties or the state have already been organiz- ed by the Arkansas State Health As sociation, and it is highly desirous that the remaining g be organized.
 "I regard this as one of the most eommendable humanitarian undertak- ings that has ever been projected ip our state, and the fact that the Pub lie Health Association is under the supervision of Dr. A c. Shipp as pres ident. and M A. Auerbach as secre- Ts,.sGy. both of whom have been inter- ested for years in sociological work, presages very useful work being ac- complished by the association"
