Wounds
U.BOAT PROBABLY SUNK

Five sailors of an Italian cargo ship
were injured by an explosion that fol-
lowed a battle off the New England
coast with a German submarine. One of
the seamen was brought to the Penn
sylvana Hospital today, after the vessel
had safely anchored at an Atlantic port.
Our ship, with it's rich cargo. was
saved, and we are certain that the Ger
man submarine we fought for more than
three hours off the New England coast
was badly damaged"
That was the proud assertion today of
officers and members of the crew.
The ship, attacked off the New Eng
land coast, made a gallant stand against
the C-boat and after three hours of
desperate fighting made its escapei The
ship bore evidences OF the battle. for
its decks had been swept by shell fire
and amidships and just above the water
line was yawning hole, made by one
of the submarines shells.

1t penetrated the steel plates of the
freighter and exploded.
The injured sailor in the hospital is
Bene Albengo. who was making his first
trip to America. He received severe
wounds in his right thigh, but will re-
cover.
Details of the battle between the big
freighter and the submersible were to-
day given to nava! officials by the ships
captain and crew. The information will
be forwarded to commanders of patrol
boats in New England waters.
On Tuesday when the freighter was
skirting the New England shore, Ger
man submarine came to the surface.

officers, land before we could get OUT
guns into action the German commander

His crew operated two guns of heavy
Caliber one forward and one aft. Ou
gunners returned the fire and in les

was in progress.
I'VE tried to escape, but 1t took NOR
than three hours to shake off the fight

but, fortunately we escaped him. Nor
than 200 shots were fired, and our gun
fire was so accurate that he must hav
been damaged. When the German
ceased firing, we were confident that on

BATH In RITTENHOUSE SQUARE
Tony Sought Rheumatism Cure
and COes tn Iai1

Tony Boyce has the rheumatics. He
has 'em bad.
Tony also has a sympathetic friend,
who suggested that the aristocratic
waters of the pond in Rittenhouse
Square would cure that rheumatic:
"I'll try it," said Tony. and he
limped painfully around to the sacred
square from his home at 18th and Mar
ket streets
Ten minutes later, Guard Conrath
summoned by an astounded woman
hauled Tony out of the pond, dripping
as to clothes, but hopeful the cure
would work.
Tony not having $3.50, Magistrate
stevenson sent him to the county prison
for ten days.
Tony is eager to see that sympathetic
friend.

pnysieal Phenomena In Japanese Va

Countless AnimaicuIt.

Strange lights hover over the waters
or Japan at various places. The burn.
ing spring that appears at intervals

locked bays is natural phenomenon
tlilt has attracted the attention of the
scientific world. A new and curious

The savants Of Japan are giving
much attention to this curious freak

erabTt lights off the coast of Chikuscn

Doctor kishigami of the college OF

Versity collected quantity of water
from the bay. He has declared that
the light is caused by countless ami
maicui. He describes these insects
Ms SEinnogyniumS. belonging to the
class Flagellata. Each measures one
twelve-hundrcdth Of an inch and has
an alimentary canal. These insects
must have been always present in the
waters of that bay, but an excess of
vegetable matter in the water so fat
tened and stimulated the animalculi
that they became unusually luminous.
The learned professor cites the appear
ance of the same phenomena at Ham
burg in 1880, since which time no
record exists of it's recurrence until
lately. The Insects live at the bot
tom OF the sea and come to the surface
on rare occasions for oxygen.

Put Some of Your
Money in This Mighty
New Industry

Any thinking, w~ide-awake man or woman who
reads the daily newspapers knows that every
dollar invested now in a good motor truck
stock-such as the Gary-is an extraordinary
profit opportunity.
Don't wait two or three years until the motor
truck industry has been fully developed-don't
wait until big dividends are being paid and the
price of motor truck stocks have gone sky
Highland then try to buy from our share own
ers who will demand a big advanced price for
each share-and it will be worth it.
Why should motor truck stocks earn such big
profits and double and treble in value? The
answer is simple. Railway and waterway
transportation lines must be relieved of their
congestion-and the only way to relieve this
congestion is by building and putting into serv-
ice thousands more motor trucks.
The manufacturing facilities for producing
motor trucks is already overburdened-the de-
marad greatly exceeds the supply-and this
