FOG HALTS DOCKING
OF TWO TROOPSHIPS
Dense Mist Paralyzes Shipping
and Transports Remain
Outside Sandy Hook.
1000 on THE LEvIATHAN
Rio Vessel Due in Port This
Morning-Several Others
Coming This Week.

The densest fog that even old Skip
por, Wood and williams could recall,
and the "reminiscences of these
mariners of the Barge Office and the
Ship News go back to the days Of the
Great Eastern, settled over city and
harbor Yesterday. There was almost
no movement OF vessels. except the
Indispensable ferry traffic. and these
boats drifted back and forth with ex-
IRENE caution. Now and then n fussy
incessant warnings. All day the moan
ing Of fog whistles echoed to the
shores.
Ferry ColIides with Lighter.
Service on some Of the ferry lines
was suspended temporarily. Only one
Incident occurred. That was a COL
llion between the Hamilton avenue
fsrryboat Montauk and the navy
lighter Charles Runyon in Buttermilll
Channel about noon. No one was in
,ured. but the passengers on the
crowded ferry suffered few moments
f tense excitement.
The French liner Chicago, which was
20 have sailed at 3 p. NJ, remained at
her pier until $3.50, and the Empress
Of Britain. which was to have left at
noon, did likewise. During the morn
Ing hours the ferries to Governors
Island, Ellis Island and South Brook
Hn discontinued their service. Other
L.,
ran their boats on a greatly reduced
schedule.
Special trains had to be provided
for the 5000 employees of the Stand
ord Shipbuilding Company, who are
Usually taken to Shooters Island on a
special ship provided by the company.
Quarantine reported that 1t was i'm
possible to see the vessels lying out
aide.
Several transports carrying a large
number Of soldiers were due in port,
but none got past Sandy Hook, no
doubt the commanders considering the
risk too great. The Dochra and the
Santa Anna should have come in, but
are outside somewhere in the impen-
etrabe mist waiting for breezes to
sweep clear the pathways. 1t was
such fog indeed as simply paralyzed
shipping. One could not see twelve
inches from the Battery wall toward
Governors Island.
The Leviathan is due early this
morning and should dock, provided
the fog lifts, at Pier 1. Hoboken, at
about 10 A. NJ. The big transport
carries more than 5000 soldiers and
sailors. The military complement is
made up OF siXty-two officers and
f2lS men; the naval, III officers and
AHA men. There also are 1,425 cas-
uals aboard including four officers and
L42l men; two officers and los sailors
OF the merchant Service and fifteen
nurses. Among the passengers is
Major-Gen George Barnett, command
ing the United States Marine Corps:
Lord Decies. Master OF Horse in the
Household OF King George. and Frank
]. Cobb. recently editor of the New
York World
At the Office OF the port OF en-
barkatiOn at Hoboken last night II
was stated that the Leviathan would
surely dock, provided the fog lifted.
Opinion seemed TO hold that the fog
may hang on a day longer and con-
t!nue to hold back the incoming troop
ships.

CONDENSED CANNED VEGE-
 TABLES.

There is marked difference be- tween American and European meth ods of packing canned vegetables and war necessities will lead us to adopt the European methods European canned vegetables are packed in d more condensed form than ours, with a smaller percentage of water, and are sometimes dehydrated or eyaporareu spefore canning, being put into tin chiefly for protection in storage and shipping. A packing plant in British Columbia has adopted the European plan for a canned soup mixture in which six egetables-carrots, turnips. potatoes, onions, peas, and beans are evaporated separately, each with different degree of heat, and then put into tins containing 15 pounds in proportion of pounds carrots, 2 1-2 of turnips, l 1-2 of potatoes, pound of onions, punds peas, and 3 pounds of beans. This mixture is packed for Canadian army rations.
 If European methods are better, then we will eventually adopt the Flu ropean methods, but first let us get all Arkansas women in the habit of can. ming their vegetables, and then we can come along and make improve ments in the methods. Let's get them to canning first.

WILL INCREASE DEMAND
 FOR HOGS AND CATTLE

When the war is over, live stock breeders in Europe will flock to the United States to buy up breeding stock to replenish the hog and cattle raising industry in England, France, Germany, Russia, Italy, Belgium, Bull garia and other countries where the war has practically wiped out all the hogs and cattle," declared J. F. Nich- olson, agriculturist of the Arkansas Profitable Farming Bureau, of the Little Rock Board of Commerce Tues day afternoon, in discussing why far mers should raise pure bred stock. These buyers will not want scrubs, and if the farmers of Arkansas want to reap their share of harvest they have not one minute to lose"

Listen, my much-beloyed people, Who dwell in this land of ours, Let's not be judged by the heighth of
 our steeples,
 Nor yet by the number of towers, But let's build up a nation of fame, A nation of which to be proud. A nation, that if you but mention it's
 name,
 Will draw the attention of crowds. We can all live well and be happy, If we can but see it that way. So let's try to the best of our knowl-
 edge,
 To make each and every deed pay.

WINTER.

WINTER. The sun shines dull through sullen clouds that wrap The sky from zenith to horizons rim; The hand of Winter shakes the oaks that cap The mountain crest, white flecked through distance dim. The redbird, seated on limb, gives plaint Unto the snow to loose the Autumn,s hoard; Above, the squirrel cracking nuts. fills want Of his from warm and cozy bin well stored. Here, in the town, gaunt hunger glares ate fate; Crime stays it's victim, cold now as the night; While Plenty, housed and clothed, puts shut the gate To keep out wraiths which timid souls alright. Not far away though spanned by seething seas, Lie heaps of slain, on ice-bound mount, in vale; Their groans were borne on chilling blasts to Him, Their loved ones weep and Hope grows wan and pale.

RUSSIAN LIBERTY
 DRAMA PRESENTED
MRS. BABcOcKS BATTALION OF DEATH" SUCCESSFULLY CIV . EN BY LITTLE THEATER
 OF MEMPHIS.

Mrs. John McRaven, of Pulaski Heights, who made herself an envia- ble reputation in Chautauqua circles by her interpretation last year of Mrs. Babcock's drama, Nanny, has been chosen to take the leading role in Mrs. Babcock's new Russian liberty drama, "The Battalion of Death, when it shall be presented in Little Rock.
 This drama was first given by mem bers of the cast before the Authors and Composers Society of Arkansas Shortly after this the author was of fered $500 for all rights to the drama by a leading photo-play company of New York As an agreement could not be reached whereby the author might retain some rights of publica- tion, this offer was refused.
 The play was presented in Mem phis last week by players of the Lit tie Theater of St. Mary's. Of this production the Commercial Appeal says: "The Little Theater of St. Mary's School presented on Thursday evening to very large and discrimi- hating audience, The Battalion of Death, by Mrs. Bernie Babcock The play deals with that organized body of women in Russia who startled the world a few months ago by their ex- traordinary heroism on the eastern front. They went into battle side by side with the men, and the fearless way in which they faced death, their unparellelled courage and determina- tion brought out in the Battalion of Death, held the attention of the aud fence throughout
 Mrs. McRayen, who will take the part of Petral, the brave little stand ard bearer in the Battalion of Death, gave a portion of the conflict scene between herself and her lover, Arto- man, at the Educational Aid Society meeting Wednesday afternoon. Those who heard this scene as given by Mrs. McRaven can fairly estimate the in- tensity of feeling that will be brought out in the play itself. Plans are being made for the production of the play for the soldiers and also for a citizen audience in Little Rock.
