Many Ships Lost in Storm.

New YOrk.-RepOrts of marine dis
asters indicate that last weeks gale all
along the North Atlantic coast added
materially to thes hipping' losses Of a
winter which already had placed a
heavy burden on insurance companies
and owners Sinister reports received
include one that the tanker Cubadist,
four days overdue from Matanzas to
Baltimore, has failed to respond to
wireless calls. The schooner Eva B.
Douglass had to be abandoned 18O
miles east of Cape Mary. The steamer
GuilfOrd was reported abandoned off
Nantucket, with the coast guard cut
ter Acushnet attempting to tow her in.
The Lake ElithOrpe, with a broken
propeller, is anchored dangerously
close to a ShOal near Sable island. An
attempt will be made to tow her to
Halifax. The Cape Breton, collier,
was abandoned as Il wreck on Scutari
island. The steamer Wisconsin Bridge,
from HangO, Finland, for New York, is
disabled several hundred miles at sea
and in tow of another ship.

THOUGHT cape Ann Greenland.

Cape Ann, which furnished bleak
and barren haven for adventurous ex-
plorers, was settled temporarily only
three years after the Mayfower ar
rived at Plymouth. Some evidence in
dicates that Thorwald's "Cape of the
Cross" which he thought to be a pro-
lection of Greenland, was the bleak
Cape Ann. Capt. John Smith landed
on what is now Cape Ann, and called
it Tragabigzanda in honor Of a Turk
ish POcahontas who did not risk her
head, but who fed him while he was
prisoner. Captain Smith explored the
coast within two decades before the
Pilgrims came.
Reports like that of Captain Smith
"angling with a hook, and crossing the
sweet air from isle to isle" attracted
many English fishing vessels. How
ever the early settlers seem to have
sought their subsistence largely
through agriculture. 1t was not until
100 that the northeast corner OF
Massa sachusetts became identified par
ticularly with fishing.

ALL FOR The BEST
-
Mr.. GosIington PHILOSOPHERS on
Human Ills.
Finally Comes to the Very Wise Con-
ciusion That Many Seeming Mis-
fortunes Are Really Bless
ings in Disguise.

"Glimmerby, my friend Glimmerby," }"
said Mr.. GoslingtOn, ''prOpOunds the
theory that both poverty and worry
are conducive TO longevity, and l
think there is something in that. /
am not so sure about the worry, and
yet l think even that may be true
l can see, for instance, that If man
worried hard enough he would keep
himself lean and SO escape the Ills
and Inconvenience attendant upon
obesity; but that poverty tends to
lengthen life 1 have no doubt what
ever.
'"The man who is poor, as we most
Of us are, has to work for living.
Surely it is in work that we are most
blessed; and if we have work to do
in which we are interested, that ap-
pealS to us, then are we fortunate In
deed; we find pleasure In labor and
joy in accomplishment; and it makes
me smile to think how in such work
we forget our worries entirely.
$50 we don't really need to con-
slider whether worry is life prolong-
er or not all we want to lengthen our
days is to be poor, poor enough so that
we have to work and keep plugging
but I do wonder that Gilmmerby did
not mention along with poverty and
worry, as among the things that might
tend to prolong life, our physical all
mentS.
"Some years ago a friend of mine
began to lose weight and he kept on
in that way until he had lost 20
pounds. Then he consulted a doctor.
1t was something that could be
checked, controlled and perhaps en-
tirely cured if the patient would fol-
low faithfully the prescribed treat
ment; and then he was told that the
general benefits he would derive from
the treatment were such that his life
might be prolonged to a greater limit
than it would have reached if he had
never had this ailment at all.
II might add that this friend has
now recovered several of his lost
pounds, he is feeling very clipper and
cheerful and he fully expects to live
to be very old man.
"The fact is that many things that
We may look at, when they come upon
Us, as drawbacks are in reality bless
ings in Disguise"

Graves Quits Forest Service.

Neutrality-suspicious. S. Graves,
head of the federal forestry service
since Clifford Pinchot, has resigned to
return to private life. Mr.. Graves
headed the Yale forestry school be-
fore entering government service and
was at the head of the lumber opera
tions conducted by the American eXpe-
dictionary forces in France. The poor
pay of scientific men in the govern
ment service was given by Mr.. Graves
as the necessity compelling him to
leave the position of chief forester.

nOunced in the House of Commons
that prompt measures had been taken
by the French government to send re-
Inducements to General GOurrand,
cOmmander-in-chief of the French
forces in the East, for the purpose OF
re-establishing his position and pre-
venting further attacks on ArmenlanS.
Mr.. Lloyd George made this statement
in answer to questions regarding meas
ures taken for protection of the Ar

had been sent to Messina.
Regarding Constantinople, the pre-
mier said Identical instructions for i'm
mediate drastic action had been dis
patched to allied representatives there,
who were acting in complete accord.
1t would be inadvisable, he added, to
disclose these instructions until reply
had been received.
While definite news of allied Oc-
cupation of ConstantinOple is still
awaited, it is stated in some quarters
that this operation is rendered all the
more inevitable owing to information
that Mustapha Kemal Pasha, the Turk
iSh nationalist leader, is Strengthening
his forces in Asia Minor and that Turk.
