Do not mistake notoriety for great

from the pedestal of fame because
they lacked the inner qualities that

There is no place where so many
great men are made as on the farm.
Is it because they inherit the quail

Factions in Senate Reach Agreement Which Is Sat-

PROHIBITIONISTS AND
 OPPONENTS HOPEFUL
Some Senators Think Presi- dent May Take Hand in the Question Before
 Settlement
ny Associ.ted pre..

Washington, July '13--National> prohipi tion legislation was postponed by Con gress today until August 26 at least.
 In arranging for a midsummer vaca- tion, formal unanimous agreement was August 26 further consideration of the s11, 900, 0oC emergency food production bill containing the amendment for bone dry wartime prohibition, effective New Years day. As a part of the agreement, however the prohibition advocates ser cured the definite pledge that the bill shall have right of way when the vaca- tion recess period of the Senate ends.
 Senator's cn both sides of the fight ex- pressed complete satisfaction with the arrfangemcnt, made after many days spirited negotiation, The prohibition ad- vocates are confident that they have a majority to keep in the bill some kind sion soon after the vacation ends. On the other hand, the opponents are hopeful that during the coming weeks there may be developments to defeat or modify the legislation
 Some senators heard during the day that President Wilson may take a hand in the fight next month. This report said he favored proposal to give him the authority and discretion to finally determine, under all conditions, whether prohibition is desirable and is inclined to oppose any action materially reducing internal revenues.

FOUR ARE THOUGHT
 KILLED IN EXPLOSION |OF SPANISH VESSEL
Ship Laden With Oil Catches Fire While in New York HarbOr-LOss Three
 Million Dollars

New York, July 13.-Four men are be- lieved to have perished today in an ex- plosion and fire which destroyed the Spanish steamship Serantes of 5000 gross tons in New York harbor, causing a loss of approximately ss,oO0. 900. The vessel. loaded with oil, was under lease to the Standard Oil company and scheduled to sail tomorrow for Spain. It now lies a blackened hulk off Bay Ridge.
 The men wi6 lost their lives were re- ported to have been trapped in the hold. Members of the crew who escaped said the decks became so hot they were forced to jump into the water. A United States coast guard cutter hastened to the rescue when officers noticed a great volume of smoke rising from the Se- rantes.
 Before the cutter arrived there was a tremendous explosion, apparently in the hold of the Spanish ship, and most of her superstructure was torn away
 Thirty-one officers and members of the crew were picked up. They said the fire started in the after part of the Serantes and spread so rapidly they were forced to flee.
 A column of dense black smoke hung over the vessel and shooting through it at intervals were flames more than 200 feet high. Thousands of spectators on shore watched the burning ship and the rescues.
