The freighter, known for her sea
vorthiness and speed. was ordered
armed by the British Admiralty early IN
March. She carried three 3.4-inch naval
guns. two forward on either side OF the
forward hatch and one sstern. Inc
guns. which have an effective range a.
fv. miles. were mounted on structural
.,.., svivels. so that they could be
trained against any hostile asroplane as
we'll as a submarine or raider.
The guns we're efeetuslly screened
behind canvas walls, hinged at the
base and held together By snsfie hooks

hooked and lowered at a moments
notice when the vessel went into action.
On March "A, the day the Cunsrd
liner Folia was sunk of the coast OF
ireland. this British submarine raieer

The captain then ordered tho canvas

By this time the raider was sinking

man, a buckaroo of this city lies
at his home today in a paralyzed
condition from which physicians say
he cannot recover as the result Of
pistol wounds received Saturday ey-
ening at the hands of Frank Brim,
the 15-year-old son of G. B. Brim
of this city, who claims he fired the
shots to protect himself and his lit
tie sister and another little girl,
who was accompanying them from
the Huree theatre which they had
attended, from Freeman and Henry
Labby, a horse trader, who was
with Freeman.
In passing Freeman and Labby.
both of whom were drunk, on their
return from the Huree, young Brim
and the girls were accosted by the
drunken men, who began to taunt
the lad about the girls and to make
remarks to them which he resented,
and he told the men to discontinue
the remarks and to tend to their
own business, whereupon Labby
started after the boy, who told the
girls to run.
Labby succeeded in catching
young Brim and struck him in the
eye and on the face, infiicting pain
full bruises. The lad finally sue
ceeded in breaking away from Lab
by and started to follow the girls
when Freeman Joined in the chase
after Brim. Young Brim then adj
vised Freeman to stop or he would
shoot and continuing after the boy

ceiyed two wounds from the pistol
of the lad, one in the right arm and
