COMPANY &c" MAN DIES
OF TYPHOID FEVER
Mr.. And Mrs. William Corkran, Of
Hurlock, Receive Word That Their
Son, Bugler Norman Corkran, is
Dead.

Mr.. and Mrs. William Corkran, OF
Hurlock, have been advised by the
War Department that their son. Blu
gler Norman Corkran, has died in
France of typhoid fever. At this
time information concerning the
young mans illness is lacking, as
friends who have heard from him
since the first of the year received
no intimation that he was sick.
The young man enlisted in Com
pany c before it left Cambridge,
spending sometime in the Company
while it was encamped on the Semi
nary grounds. He went to Admission
to train and went over with his orga-
nization when it was sent over last
spring. So far as could be learned
he had gotten along very nicely, and
the news of his death came as a
very great shock.

AMERICAN SHIPPING
INCREASING RAPIDLY
Now Includes Nearly Half Of All
Shipping Plying Between Ameri-
can And Foreign Ports Still
Many More ships to be Added.

| Washington, March 9.-Figures
made public by the United States
Shipping Board tonight indicate that
| the American merchant marine now
comprises 46 per cent. of all shipping
plying between American and foreign
shores, a fleet representing one-fifth
of the sea-going tonnage of the
world. At the opening of the Euro,
| pean war the sea-going tonnage I'M
der the American flag carried only
81 per cent. of exports and imports
of the United States.
On January 81 there was still a
considerable number of American
ships absorbed by army and navy
needs, 3O2 vessels being diverted to
the army, and 81 to navy uses. The
shipping left was sufficient to make
an important showing in overseas
commerce. On that date there were
752 vessels, of I,961,259 gross tons,
employed in overseas service under
the American flag. This included
351 freighters, "a freight and pas
senger vessels, freight and refrige-
rator vessels, Z freight, passenger,
and refrigerator ships, 6 golfers, II
steam tankers, and 230 sailing YES
sells.
The Shipping Board has opened a
new route from New York to China,
which was initiated with the sailing
of the 7,5O0-ton steamer Monmouth,
built by the Standard ShipDuilding
Company of New York. The $500
ton steaemr Westland, built by the
Northwest Steel Company, of Port
land, Ore, is making regular trips
between New York, Australia, and
New Zealand, carrying general cargo.
The 7,5OO-ton steamer Akron, built
by the Downey Shipbuilding Com
pany, has been placed in service be-
tween New York and India: the A.
O00-ton ship Aurora, built at Will
mington, in service between New
York and Grecian ports, and the l.
O00-ton Marshall, also built at Will
mington, between New York and the
West Coast of Africa.
Ships are now leaving Seattle,
Wash, and Portland, Ore, weekly,
for Danzig. Saloniki, and Turkey,
carrying relief supplies. The 5000
ton steamer Westland, built by the
Seattle, and the 7,5O00-ton steamer
Osaki, built at New York, have been
placed in service between New York
and the Dutch East Indies. The
Shipping Board has assigned some OF
its largest steamers to carry COM
MERGE between American ports and
those of Great Britain. These in
clude the East Indian, the Invincible,
and the Defiance, each of 1880
tons. These ships ply between New
York, London, and Liverpool, carry
ing general cargoes.
The Board has also opened ser
vice with American steamers be-
tween New York and Antwerp. The
ships plying between these ports are
the Westpool, Ossawatomie, and Au-
burn. When the army and navy re-
turn to the Shipping Board the ships
they are now operating, the CONNER
cial fleet under the American flag
will be augmented by 1,S73.521
gross tons, making total of 1884,
$50.

Meat forms uric acid which excites the Kidneys the become over worked from the strain get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sIeeplessnes and urinary disorders comes from sluggish kidneys.
 The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scaIding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of lad Salts from any phar- macy; take a tablespoonful in a t;lass of water before breakfast and in d few days your kidneys will act fine, This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com btned with lthia, and has been uSeo for generations to flush and stimulate the Kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder weak ness.

"Maytime''

TIME sheer novelty of "Maytime"
is such that It appeals to all
- classes of amusement seek
ers. It has a human story which, en-
claiming the audiences interest at
the outset, develops logically and en-
tertainingly to a surprising climax,
which is reached three generations
later in our own busy times. The
sprightly melodies with which the
story has been framed, have the viz
tue of enhancing the plays action
and smoothly dovetaii into its prog
ress. Not the least interesting
feature Of "Maytime" is the fact that
it is wholly removed from conven-
tional musical comedy. Unlike the
latter commodity, this play has a
genuine stofy-one of real appeal
that is worth telling for it's own
sake. The fact that the four acts,
or episodes, cover an equal number
of widely varying periods, the GUS
toms, manners and chief character
istics of each are being faithfully re-
produced, affords "Maytine" a var
iety seldom found in single play,
