British Crew Has Narrow Escape

willingly and gladly proffered him,
turned on you, and was utterly false

caused all sorts of discord in your

thing you held dear. Suppose he tried

Spent Over Eight Hours on the Bot.
tom of the Sea to Escape Germans
Men Showed No Signs Of
Panic When Facing Death

London, July l5.-What is 1t like
to the crew of a German submarine
which is sent to the bottom by allied
destroyers?
A British submarines crew which
recently had a narrow escape from
sinking knows, because it had the
experience and came out alive. From
dry official sources has been culled
this remarkable story of human en-.
durance and nerves OF steel.
The British under.sea craft was
cruising the North sea when it sight
ed several German destroyers, 50
near that il was forced to dive at
the greatest speed.
So rapid was the descent that the
submarines helm damned. Before
the commander could right his craft,
violent explosion. caused by depth
charge fred by one Of the German
boats shook the vessel So severe
was the conclusion that the crew
were lifted on their feet.
Unable to stop the descent OF the
submarine, the commander was
forced 10 dive to the bottom OF the
sea
Submarine unchanged by Explosion
A hasty examination showed the
boat was unchanged except for the
tanning of the helm. There was
nothing TO do but lie quiet on the
bottom and hide from the pursuers
the crafts whereabouts.
There came a second explosion, as
violent as the first.
All motors were stopped and even
the ventilating apparatus was shut
off. During the twenty minutes fol.
living the craft was again carefully
examined, without signs of leakage.
Suddenly the stout hearts of those
on board were shaken to the limit Of
their endurance
A loud scraping noise swept the
vessel rom stem to stern. 1t was
a trawler's sweep, trying to locate
the submarine. If it caught on the
coming tower or entangled a rudder,
the men were lost
Slowly the scraping passed along
the boat and then ceased, after what
seemed hours to the GREATNESS crew
The sweep had left the vessel free.
Hardly had this menace passed
along the boat and then ceased, after
when third explosion, more violent
thar the other two, again shook the
craft.
Again the boat was examined for
traces OF damage. and when none was
found steps were taken to put her
In trim again. Notwithstanding the
TACT that at any moment the attack
might be renewed
But the hunters apparently be
leved that their depth charges had
done their work, and there were no
more explosions. For eight hours
however the submarine remained on
the bottom. and then cautiously ap.
preached the surface and returned to
it base.
The commander praised highly the
spirit OF his men when facing death.
Throughout the whole time they
showed no signs of panic.

Req. Francis Boone Seq
ers Connection With
Local Methodist Church

The Rev. and Mrs. Francis Boone
and family left today, Thursday, the
one to San Antonio, Texas, where he
will take intensive training for a few
weeks before going to France as
chaplain, the others to the home Of
Mrs. Boone in Colorado Springs, to
remain until the close of the war.
Mr.. Boone received his notification a
week ago and since that time has been
making final arrangements. The city
and Methodist church have lost an
earnest and willing worker in the de-
parture of the gentleman while Mrs.
Boone has made many sincere friends
also during the short residence of the
family here.
No definite arrangements have been
made by the bishop of the district for
a man to fill the place vacated. The
Rev. Bennett of Coopertown, N. D.,
will supply next Sunday. He is
anxious to get into Minnesota and it
is possible that this parish will be
assigned to him.

It has been charged that Congress
failed to include its own membership
in the War Revenue Act passed last
October. This is what Congressman
Claude Kitchen, chairman of the
House Ways and Means committee,
and author of that bill says:
s'The war Revenue Act did not
exempt members of Congress from
either the Excess profit tax or the In
come tax"
Congressman w. r. Green of Iowa,
member of that committee has this
to say.
"The salaries of Congressman are
subject to the tax imposed by the
Excess-profits division Of the last
Revenue Act"
On Feb. LIST of this year the Conn.
missioner of Internal Revenue sent the
following instructions to all collectors
of internal revenue:
"nThe Bureau of Internal Revenue is
of the opinion that it was not the in
tention of Congress to exempt the
salaries of United States Senators and
Representative from the Excess Pro-
| fits tax, and holds that the salaries of
members of Congress are subject to
the provisions of Title II of the Act
of Oct. 8, 1917, and are included in
the income to be reported by such
members for the purposes of the Ex-
cess Profits Tax as well as for the pur-
poses of the Income and the War In
come Taxes"
(Signed) DANIEL C. ROPER,
Commissioner.
Some, who have circulated these
stories, or others equally baseless did
so honestly, believing them to be true.
Others circulated them with malicious
intent, knowing them to be false in
every particular. The fact that my
opponents do not dare question a
single vote of mine since the declara-
ton of war should be sufficient evid-
ence that my record in Congress has
been good.
