The recent thirty-three and one
eh..u per cent inor5ase in the sal
aries of all members of the police de
partment will bring her salary vi
to $50 per month.
There will be nothing spectacular
in Miss Reynolds performance o.
her duties. She merely will &c
quietly into picture shows-one after
another-and if she finds anything
Objectionable in a picture, will re
port the matter to Superintendent
Mooney, who will issue orders fol
the manager of the theater in which
such a picture is being shown, Il
discontinue it. If that is not done
an affidavit will follow.

ALGIERS BOY TELLS OF
SINKING Of GUHbOAT
j. 5. SCHURz

An account Of the sinking of the
/ L. s. Schurz is given in detail by
James Ii. Baer in a letter to his
mother.
About four O'Clock Friday a. m,
We were awakened by terrific
crash; all thought il was subma-
rine attack. We Immediately hur-
riCd 10 the deck and found that the
Schurz had colIided with the tank
steamer, Florida Our Captain, a
man Of foresight gave orders To
abandon the ship at once. had
my sea-bag in one hand and my life
preserver in the other, so naturally
thinking the latter more important
fought bravcly To save il, as well as
the life OF others who could not
swim. We at once lowered raft
which held about tWenty-seven men.
but as soon as We were launched We
were caught III the thrush of water
and drawn into the fracture. BY
this time the motor dOry was launch
ed and il toWcd us clear OF the sink
ing vessel II seemed as il fate
were against us. for when the dOry
turned us loose we were washed back
under the stern of the SChurZ which
was now high out of the water. A
cutter came 10 our rescue and towed
rs away. The motor dory then pick
ed Us up and brought us to the
Florida.
In the meantime the SdramacCa,
a United Fruit Company steamer had
received our frantic 5. O. S. call and
raced to the scene OF the accident
After several hours the rescuers man
aged to get aboard all the men from
the rammed vessel II was now day
light and all stood on board the Sara
macca and watched in silence the
Schurz make her last noble plunge.
Roll called revealed the fact that
| only one man was missing out of
! PSI. Many were slightly injured.
| Discipline accounts for the few in
| jured and one dead. Everyone act
ed with remarkable bravery.
The crew and passengers of the
SaramaCca did all they could to make
us comfortable. We created quite
Ia lot of excitement and comment
when we arrived in New York. Our
attire alone caused laughter. As
we saved nothing-no one was prop
erly clad All were without shoes
some had blankets thrown around
them; others had mattress ticking
and sacks with only an opening fol
, the head and arms. The few in
jured wree taken to the hospital
ThrOngs crowded around us to heal

The ladies of the Y. w. c. A.

with comforts required-in fact WI

A MUMMY CAT.

A few weeks ago, Mr.. A. c. Heron,
of Slidell Ave, found a mummified
cat under the old house he was NOV
ing from Vallette and Opelousas
Ave. The mummy is we'll preserved
and Mr.. Heron has it vanished to
look like a genuine imitation, but
it is the real thing. The cat is a
good sample of what the Egyptians
did years ago in preserving the dead.
