TIDAL WAVE MAKES
MANY HOMELESS

HIGH SWEEPS OVER
TEXAS TOWN.
Residential section Swept Away, At
Least Fifteen Lives Being Lost,
While Property Damage Will
Reach Four Millions.

Corpus Christi, Texas-Fifteen per-
sons are dead. approximately four
thousand are homeless and property
damage, 1t is estimated, will reach
$4,OO0,OOO as a result of the tropical
hurricane which ragged here for twenty
hours.
The damage was caused mostly by
tidal wave driven in from the north
by gale estimated at from sixty-five
to seventy miles an hour. The official
record of the tide places it at ten
feet six inches deep, but many say
the water was fifteen feet in depth OH
the beach.
Chapparal and Mesquite streets, in
the business districts, were flooded,
and while the water has receded, they
are filed with debris.
The entire North beach residential
section of the city has been swept
clean, except the SpOhn sanitarium,
the United States public health service
hospital, which was occupied by thirty
seven soldiers sent here for treatment.
and one frame house.
fractlcally every frame building on
the beach front was destroyed, to-
gether with most of the boats moore,l
there. The residence SECTION op the
hill was slightly damaged and few
houses were unroofed.
Many we're rescued from Neuces bay,
where th~y were found floating, cling
Ing to sprrs and debris, after the wind
had subsidized.
The mayor has sent an appeal to
the governor, asking that two COM
panies of national guard with supplies
be sent AZ once.
Port Arkansas, thirty-five miles from
Corpus Christi, on the upper end of
Mustang island, was completely de-
molished by the hurricane Sunday, ac-
cording to wireless message picked

CHINA MAKES PEACE
WITH GERMAN FOE
FRESH COMPLICATIONS HAVE
BEEN ADDED TO THE SHAN.
TUNG CONTROVERSY
The Action of Chinese in Terminating
War With Germany instead Of
Signing Treaty Negotiated at
Paris Comes as Surprise.

Washington. Fresh complications
have been added to the Shantung con-
troversy which is one of the obstacles
to ratification of the peace treaty with
Germany.
Following the disclosure that Presi-
dent Wilson has called upon Japan to
announce a definite date on which it
will restore KiaochOw to China it was
announced that China had declared
peace with Germany after refusing to
submit to Japanese pressure to sign
the Versailles treaty.
The action of China in terminating
the war with Germany by an edict
dated September 10 instead of signing
the treaty negotiated at Paris en-
hances the difficulties attending the
efforts of the president to abate the
Shantung controversy.
If Japan now yields to the impor-
tunities of the president it will be COM
PEELED to back down on it's recent as
serti0n that it would not enter into
negotiation with China for the restor-
alton of KiaOchow until China had
signed the peace treaty.
The news that Mr.. Wilson had made
representations to Japan in regard to
definite arrangements for the return
of the German leased territory in
Shantung to China reached Washing
ton from Toxic. In the absence of the
president and of Secretary of State
Lansing, William Phillips, the acting
secretary of state, declined to confirm
or deny the report.
Among other state department Off
Gals, however, and at the capitol the
intelligence was pronounced authentic.
One of the administration leaders in
the senate in the league of nations
fight confirmed the report unequivO-
cally.

FOIL BIG GAMBLING CLIQUE
Secretary Bobby Quinn Uses Novel
Plan to Break Up Noisy Crowd
In Wing Of Grandstand.

Bobby Quinn. secretary of the st.
Louis Browns. found way to break
up groups of gamblers who were wont
to congregate along the right fed
wing of the grandstand and ply their
nefarious trade in open defiance of The
police. Quinn called in the munich
pal authorities, but got no satisfac-
ton. He employed private agencies,
but still the wagering went on. Fin
ally he went among the men himself
and tried to break up the groups that
obstructed the passageway. Finally
he lift upon a plan that caused the
gamblers to howl to heaven. He
strung a series of signs along the Cir
ders, utterly blocking the view Of the
playing field from the rear Of the
stand. That did more than all the
cops In the Mound City. One may
walk in comfort through the st. Louis
stand now without hearing the boots
and bowls OF the short enders.

and by whipping the ball to Fletcher
like shot, which he did, hoped to
catch Vaughn off the bag, but the Cub
pitcher, thinking he saw Manager
Mitchell give him the signal to come
on to third, kept on going and reached
that bag, much to the surprise of
Young and nearly everybody in the
park. Had Young waited moment
before making his peg he would have
caught Vaughn standing up, as he is
one of the best throwing Outfielders in
the league.
Play upsets Giants.
This play rather upset the Giants.
Manager Mitchell saw it, and sent
Vaughn home on double steal, with
Flack. Gonzales in his eagerness to
throw to Fletcher shot the ball to the
ground and past Fletcher, letting Hip

center and Flack came across.

JOINT CLUB PROGRAM

Under the joint auspices OF the
Women's Clubs of Berea, a very
Casant social and literary after
noon was enjoyed by the women
and their friends at the Baptist
church, Thursday afternoon, May 3.
The church was prettily decorat-
ed with bunting and ported plants.
Mrs. John Smith gave violin solo
and Miss Claire Leedy gave a vocal
selection, both of which were much
appreciated. This was followed by
the reading of a modern play -
Mary, Come Firstly Prof. James
W .Raine. The audience entered into
the humor and satire brought out
by the complicated situations Of
two women aspiring to social promi-
nence. The different characters
were well portrayed by Professor
Raine. A social hour with dainty
refreshments followed.
