liner LISTS after
STRANGE WARNINGS
Imperator, Formerly German,
Ends Perilous Trip With
Water Pouring In
SEVERAL OF CREW KILLED
RN the Associated Press

Southampton, England, March 10
The steamship 1mperator. which ar
rived here this morning from New York,
will have to be again overhauled. al
though this is only her second Atlantic
trip under new management. Her next
sailing date has been Cancelled.
1t is stated the Imperator has not
yet been relieved of the list which was
observed on her last voyage. This list
is said to be due to the fact that her
ash electors have failed to work and
instead of clearing out the ashes have
taken in water. The list caused some
alarm to those of her 2000 passengers
who did not know the reason for it.
London. March 10. The former
German, later American, now British
liner 1mpcrator has just completed the
most exciting journey of it's career. For
three days the giant vessel was vir-
tually helpless. with list of ~ de-
grees. Several first class statprooms
were flooded. Some members of the crew
were killed.
Among those on board was Samuel
Vauclain, president of the Baldwin Lo-
comotive Works, Philadelphia. Mr..
Vauclain was on his way to Paris to
confer with European managers of the
Baldwin concern. Later he intends to
visit Russia. Apparently he was not
injured.
The lmperator left New York on
March =. All went we'll until last Sun
day evening. when. in the course of a
concert in the first class saloon, 600
passengers were thrown from their seats
as the big ship dropped to a sharp list,
which increased steadily. The passen-
gers say there was no panic. however.
Several saloon passengers declared
that they received anonymous warnings
not to sail on the ship.
Mary Nash. we'll known actress. said
II received mysterious warning
from Washington that 1t would be dan
gerous to sail on the Imperator. but
determined to pay no attention to it and
sailed anyhow. The stateroomS were
flooded after the ship listed. My own
cabin had foot and half of water,
but continued to occupy it. l had to
crawl to my bed over trunks that were
floating around over the floor.
Arthur Hammerstein said: I'VE were
in grave danger but did not realize
Il until we reached Southampton this
morning. I was warned in New York
not to sail on the Impcrator, but l dis
regarded the warning. I thought it was
merely scare started from Germany'S
sources.

LUCKY FIGURE "9"
Almost Makes One Believe in
Science of Numbers"
Question May Well Be Asked, Is
There Any Connection Between
Number Nine and GoId?-Sta-
tistics That Are Interesting.

A nugget, weighing 1T3 ounces, has
been dug u in the Belgian Congo.
This is one of the largest nuggets ever
found outside Australia, and this new
find" of African gold Is said to be
amazingly rich.
1t is, of course, a coincidence, yet
a very curious one, remark a writer
in London Answers, That all the great
gold finds nave been made in years
ending with the figure -" The ia
nous California gold finds at Suffers
creek were in 1S49.
Just ten years later came the dis
covery of gold in Australia, and in
the very same year in British Column
bia. The rush to Australia was really
the beginning of the great island con-
tinent's career as n dominion of the
British empire.
In 1869 the famous Comstock lode
was opened up and proved the richest
ever discovered in the United States.
The year 1879 saw the Arizona gold
finds and the great rush to the famous
town of Tombstone.
In 1889 the almost equally impor-
tant diggings of Clover creek, in South
ern California, were opened up. Here
the gold was just below the surface,
and huge fortunes were piled up.
In 1899 history repeated itself. That
was the year when the world first
heard of the amazing riches of the
Klondike, and when the great rush
began in the far arctic. The Yukon
gold has made hat year a landmark
in the history of gold digging.
The year 1909 again was the year
in which British Columbia discovered
that she possessed a veritable noun
tain range of gold. The first discov-
cry was made at Bitter Creek, where
free milling samples of ock averaged
SIS worth of gold to the ton.
And now, in 1919, comes the news
of this new discovery in the heart of
tropical Africa.
This raises the question of the truth,
or otherwise, of the so-called Science
of Numbers'-one of the many occult
beliefs that have come to US from In
dia and the East.
There are 10 many little books
utaIihS VIII lhls supJeSI III Which
those who are attracted by out of the
way studies will find much to interest
n amuse them. 1t is as well, how
ever, to test thoroughly all such the
cries before putting them to any prac-
teal test. For one cannot help Won
dering why, If these sciences" are re-
liable, those who practice and profess
to believe In them are not rolling in
riches.

Nature Lovers F1Ocking To
Yellowstone National Park.

Advices received from Yellowstone
National Park by Chas $. Hill, commits
sioner of immigration, state hat the
travel Ibis year is the greatest ever
known in the history of the park, which
indicates that our great va~cation-loving
people are travelling more and more
each year, and are firmly convinced
Of the fact that they are approaching
more and more the wonders of nature
to be found in Seeing America First
The Indications are that this travel is
going To result in opening up more of
the features of the park, with trails to
camping sites away from the present
crowded highways. and make it II
greater attraction for the spending of
vacations for those who are looking for
rest and recreation, which may event
ually make Wyoming more sought as II
permanent home for those who love
the frontier scenery and freedom.
Up to ana including the 25th of July.
81 .S9I people had registered at the park
gates. MS against 2G,02S up to the same
time last year, an icrease of practically
5000 people. Up to that time 5,292
automobiles had entered the park. as
against 4.T31 for the same time last
year. The total travel for the season
last year was 62.261. If the present
rate of increase continues to the end of
the season the total travel for 1920
will he around 10000. and the number
of automobiles will very nearly ap
proach $4,000.
1t is interesting to know that ON
July 9th the Cody entrance registered
90 automobiles, the most automobiles
that any II entrance has ever had in
any one day in the history of the park.
The 80 automobiles carried $40 people.
Up to the present time, the Cody en-
trance has maintained higher average
of private automobile travel than any
other gateway.

Now We Eat Mermaids.

Even mermaids nowadays yield
valuable commercial products. Their
flesh is very good to eat, different parts
Of the creature resembling beef, veal
and pork. Their skin makes an ex-
cellent leather; their bones take a
beautiful polish. and their livers fur
nish aR oil resembling that of cod
livers which Is commonly used for
medicine.
They are not called mermaids any
longer, but "~dugongs" their human
like appearance when seen at the sur
face of the sea, with head and shoul-
ders exposed to view, having in early
times given rise to n OF the most
picturesque of myths.
The animal is about the size Of a
pOrpoise, with huge lungs (enabling
It to stay for a long time under water)
and grinders like those of a ruminant.
Tusks that p%rotrude from the upper
jaw are a distinguishing mark of the
male.
Dugongs are denizens of warm seas.
Often they approach lear to land, com-
ing in with the tide and feeding on
the submarine algae of mud flats. To
capture them nets are stretched across
channels leading to such flats. They
become entangled, and, unable to rise
to the surface to breathe, are drowned.

influenza Epidemics.

A British doctor. writing in the Lon
don Lancet last November, calculated,
as a result Of his observation of influ-
enza epidemics, that one occurred
every thirty-three weeks, though those
falling in mild weather were so slight
as to be hardly noticeable. He pre-
dicted that the next epidemic would
occur in January or February of this
year, sixty-six weeks after the severe
epidemic of 1918. If his observations
and theory are correct the next two
should come in the mild weather of
next September and of April, 1921.
Another one would then be due in
December, 1921. But as the germ caus-
ing the disease seems to be losing its
virulence there is ground for hope
that, in spite of the defenselessness of
medical science in combating the cpl
demic, the worst is over for a good
many years.

heMystery Of Society
What We Don't Know About It Is the Thing That Makes
 Us Keep It Going.
Ry THOMAS MAssON.

According to writers on socialism and similar topics. which few people know anything about. the majority of people in the world are working. in order that few at the top may loll around on the divans or ride forth in golden chariots. These people are known as society" and tEey must be very interesting, their pictures constantly appear in papers and periodicals, and what they do or don't do is explained at great length.
 A lady who lived near me several years ago in the modest suburb where in spring and summer l put my numerous progeny out to graze, has recently married the brother of a European king. Whether she got bargain or not, can't know. But the fact that she has been in so- called society for so long, that she is handsome and that her former husband left her a great many nillions-all this has contributed to the international ex- citement caused by the event. The gentle man she rescued undoubtedly needed the money. He was living in a cheap board ing house at the time, and his brother. the king, was up against it so hard that he had to slink along the side streets and back alleys that Italy has so generously provided for this purpose, in order to avoid their numerous creditors. It was, therefore, a joyous moment in their lives when the younger brother was able to announce that America, in the shape of a suburban society queen, had come to the rescue, and that they could now get back their laundry each week without previously being obliged to sit on park benches and match coins with rude strangers.
 Now, the world is full of women. You meet them wherever you go. Some crit ical Frenchman (who wishes me to with hold his name on account of the fenaie members of his immediate family) has declared that when you get to know them all women are alike.
 Why is it, therefore. that when so- ciety woman, who has nothing to do but look pleasant and spend money, marries a prince with no visible means of support, there is SD much excitement about it.
