TANKER BEAT THE SUB
U-Boat Attacked Three Freighters,
but Was Whipped.

An Atlantic Port, Oct. 30.-A tor
pedo and shell fire attack by a Ger
man submarine on an American tank
er, a British sfreighter and Norwegian
freighter, October 21, seven hundred
miles from the French coast in which
the American tanker stopped to en-
gage and apparently outfought the u
boat, was described by the crew of the
Norwegian ship which arrived here
today.
The three vessels were travelling to-
-gether, the Norwegian crew said,
when the submarine made its pres
ence known by launching a torpedo
at the Britisher. The enemy then ap-
peared on the surface and with two
deck guns opened fire on all three
ships The vessels scattered and the
Britisher being the fastest, was soon
hull down on the horizon. The Nor
wegian ship. unarmed. moved off in
an opposite direction, while the Amer
lean tanker. turning so as to present
a stern target, opened fire and made
the U-boat submerge.

USED AN AIRPLANE
Senator Thompson Pulls Brand
New Political Stunt.
He Flew From Columbus to
Pittsburg in 35 Minutes.

Pittsburg, Kan, Oct. Ex-senator
William H. Thompson pulled an abso-
lutely new stunt in Kansas campaign
transportation Tuesday afternoon
when he made use of an airplane to
get from Columbus to Pittsburg,
where he made talk to the S. A. T.
c. men at the Pittsburg normal school.
Senator Thompson is making a si-
lent campaign, visiting all the towns
he can and talking to as many per-
sons as possible without a public gath
ering. Tuesday he visited Erie. Os-
wego, Parsons and Columbus and was
anxious to get to Pittsburg, but the
only way he could make the trip was
thru the air.
Had Army Aviator.
When this was learned at the Cook
Airplane plant at Pittsburg. Thomas
Webber, an aviator who spent four
teen months in the western front in
France and who was sent home after
having been wounded in service, vol
unteered to assist the senator. He
flew over to Columbus, picked up
Thompson and made the return trip
of thirty-five miles in just thirty five
minutes.
, Flying was no new sensation to Sen
ator Thompson, as he flew over Paris
and London while on his visit to the
war front and tried to get chance to
fly over the enemy lines but was no,
permitted to do so because of the great
danger such trip always involves.
Little did I ever dream that ]
would campaign in Kansas in an air
| plane" the senator said after landing
here, but 1 suppose it win not be Ions
/ before this will be the regular thing in
| this and other states"

HALLOWEEN FROLICs.

This is to be war Halloween
time when destruction is criminal and
unpatriotic and objectionable.
The schools are closed because of
the influenza epidemic. The young
sters are tempted to lay the blame on
Halloween for their unclaimed enthu-
siasm. Already they have started out
in gangs over the city and have caused
economic loss to the Street Railway
company and to the city street depart
ment.
Parents, it is up to you to control
your boys-at least for this one Hal
Ioween season. You owe it to your
self. your child, your neighbor, your
country.
Every ounce of energy in labor is
necessary these days. Every man
should be engaged in work essential
to the progress of the war. Labor en-
ployed to repair Halloween damage is
labor wasted and labor devoted to
channels outside the war zone.

officer at Garden City said he hat
only four cases of influenza reported

other health officers said they fell
