A letter frop Mrs. F. G. B. Weihe,
who is visiting her son, Capt. 2. e.
Weihe, in Newport News, Va, tells Of
a narrow escape she had on her way
Friday night at q o'clock, during q
severe rain and electrical storm. The
train was derailed by a wasnout near
Patrick, Va. and the baggage ca4
dining car, two day and two Pullman
cars were turned over. The car Mrs
Weihe was in did not quite turn over,
but was so nearly so that it threw
the passengers out of their berths.
The wheel trucks were driven entire
ly through the door of the car near
Mrs. Weihe's berth. The wooden
cars were badly torn up, but the steel
cars Jared little better although all
the wheels were torn off, and wheels
and wreckage were thrown for a
distance of half block. Fortunate
'ly the engine broke Loose when the
cars were first dsraiIed, otherwise it
is said the wreck would have been
very much worse. One day coach
was almost on end against hill near
the track. The rails were torn up
and twisted like wire. and it was re-
markable that no one was killed, but
quite number had limbs and ribs
broken, and many were bruised and
cut. Mrs. Weihe was knocked I'M
conscious, but sustained no injuries.
The passengers were taken to Rich
mond on a relief train, and Mrs.
Weihe finally arrived in Newport
News six hours late. but very thank
full FOR her escape.

HALIFAX WARMLY
WELCOMES FLYERS

HALIFAX, Nova Scotia, May e.
Arrival Of the United States naval
boats here last evening was the sig
nal for a great turnout of Halifax
residents and a noisy welcome from
harbor boats. Whistles on shore and
in the harbor shrieked, and the crowd
cheered as the NC-3, leading, flashed
into view and took the water with
a cloud of spray.
She alighted in the harbor mouth
Of McNab's island at 1858 p. m (Hali-
fax time), nine hours after the start
from Rockaway. She rushed along
the water at great speed to the east
ern passage where during the war
the United States had an air base.
Ten minutes later the second plane
came into view and made the same
route to Eastern bay. Both planes
came into the harbor in the face of a
strong wind.
The NC-1 and NC-3 took on enough
gasolene to carry them to Trepassey
bay Immediately on their arrival here
They were supplied from the United
States cruiser Baltimore, which was
waiting for them in the harbor.
Commander Towers, chief Of the
expedition, led his men aboard the
Baltimore, where they had dinner and
went to their beds. All were very
tired No statement was made by the
pilots or navigators of the two
boats.
The crews Of the NC-1 and NC-3
were astir at daybreak this morning,
eager to resume the flight.
Mechanics gave the machines a
nnal looking over. and everything
was in readiness for the 460-mile trip
to Trepassy. Commander Towers said
the flight to Trepassy would require
not more than seven hours if the sea-
planes encountered the same weather
prevailing here all the way.
The four American destroyers which
had been stationed here lifted an
chors early today and set out to sea-

and bombs burst with a crash hun
dreds of feet in the air, as the search
lights spotted" them-all combining
to make a brilliant spectacle; torches
of red fire f1ared on both sides of the
street, automobiles honked and footed,
and bands. military and civilian, blared
martial airs and fox-trots.
The already crowded street became
hopelessly damned when the 10000
people who had been listening on the
Ellipse to a stirring speech by. Ole
Hanson, the fighting mayor Of Seattle,
streamed into it. Nothing could stem
the tide, and the din increased into a
deafening roar.
Automobiles and Tanks.
Gayly decorated automobiles, filled
with girls and men in masquerade
costumes, made their way in a long
procession through the jam of hu-
manly that filled the street. while
ponderous tanks. streaked with cam
outage, rumbled along, their labored
progress drowned amid the general
din.
The official Victory loan truck was
in a class by itself and added much
to the mirth of the night. 1t was
brilliantly lighted. On the inside
were musicians and bond statesmen
(the latter did a land office business,
by the way), while half dozen gayIy
attired clowns danced on the roof.
The selection by the judges OF the
prize winners proved more of job
than they had anticipated. From 10
o'clock until IL the competitors
passed before the judges. who were
stationed at Twelfth street and Penn
sylvania avenue.
The prize for the most unique cos
tune advertising the Liberty loan was
awarded to Miss Leila NJ. Ellis, who
is a granddaughter of President Ty-
Ter. Miss Ellis wore a costume of
red, white and blue, with large blue
VS. on the skirt and the waist and a
Liberty cap studded with VS.. a. w.
Decker, of 5401 H street northeast,
who was dressed as a Victory Indian,
won honorable mention.
The prize for the prettiest automo-
bile of girls was given to Miss
Regania Fries, who drove car No.
2S1T2. With her were her sister, Miss
Maize Fries, and two other young
women, Miss Viola Baumgarden and
Mrs. z. Joseph Aronof. They wore
japanese hats and were in costume.
The prize for the most unique car
advertising the Victory loan was won
by the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing, who had a truck carrying
a press, on which there were printed
Victory bonds as the truck rumbled
along.
