Standing of Candidates

Will Tie exception Oh the TACT EQdL
Helen Lindley still retains the lead
in this weeks list, decided shake
up took place among the candidates,
and the whole aspect of tthe race has
taken surprising change.
Miss Lindley is making spirited
run for the first prize, and is putting
in all of her spare time adding to the
votes which mean so much at this
time. Mary Dadey didn't like the
strain of peering up from fourth
place last week, and took flying
leap to second place, with less than
21G0 votes separating her from the
leader.
ElOyse Bumgarner makes a strong
bid for public notice this week by
polling an unusually heavy vote over
her figures of last week, placing her
third on the list with only $4,000
votes behind Miss Dadey.
Arlis Miller dropped to fourth place
even with her big increase over last
week, while Julia Dye gave up her
fayortte position as third, dropping
back to fifth.
This shifting of position is no more
than might have been expected at this
stage of the contest, and no one can
tell what the 1na: outcome will be.
Following is the standing of can

SHELLS
BURST ON SHIP
BROOKLYN HOMES UNDER RAIN
OF FIRE FROM BURN
ING LIGHTER.
NEAR ARSENAL
LARGE PRoJEcTILES eoM6ARD
NAVAL STORES ON ISLAND
NEAR FIT. HAMILTON.
western Newspaper Union News Service.


New York, Dec. G-Hundreds of
homes near the Fort Hamilton section
of Brooklyn virtually were under
heavy artillery bombar,lment result
ing from intermittent explosions of
slx-inch and ten-inch shells on a steam
lighter, which caught fire while
moored 10 the army reservation
wharf.
Gathering together their belongings
in n belief that the naval arsenal at
Fort Lafayette, IL small island near
Fort Hamilton, was ablaZe, terrified
scores fled their homes for safer
zones, driven TO frenzied haste by the
series of detonations which We're
heard for miles around.
An Official statement from Fort
Hamilton said no lives had been lost
slightly injured.
One of the terrifying incidents of
the barrage was the 400-yard flight of
a ten-inch shell clear over the reser-
walton and into house in Fort Ham
ilton parkway.
The projectile tore a huge hole in
the roof of the dwelling, passed
through two floors and buried itself
in the cellar. The house, occupied by
the family of August Galtern, all of
whom escaped injury, was shaken
with the violence of an earthquake.
The lighter, Amuckissan, which was
laden with shells for shipment to Bos-
ton, was torn from its noOrings by
the violence of the first explosion.
Two men were on board, but they es-
capped.
The naval tug Samoset soon reached
the scene, and in a desperate effort to
prevent the flames from spreading to
the wharf, Ensign benjamin Sucker,
commanding officer, deliberately
headed his craft for the blazing light
er and its exploding cargo.
He stuck her nose against the side
of the lighter and pushed her away
TO aosand bar In imminent peril of his
own craft being blown from the wa
ter.
The naval tug had scarcely with
drawn when heavy explosion Oc-
cured which tore the lighter apart.
The glare from the exploding am
muIition and the flames from the
burning wharf illuminated the lower
harbor, and attracted thousands TO
the Brooklyn and Staten island water
fronts.
As explosion followed explosion,
and the danger to craft passing the
Narrows between Fort Hamilton ard
Fort Wadsworth grew menacing,
"blinker light signals We're flashed
from the fortifications warning mar
iners to give the threatened area
wide berth.
Soldiers from Fort Hamilton We're
dispatched from the residential sec
ton to alluy panic
The proximity of the naval arsenal
at Fort Lafayette with its stores of
high explosives and inflammable ma
terial, was Il source of intense worry
TO fire fighters.
As the blazing lighter and its ex.
ploding shells broke away from the
wharf and began 10 drift in the di-
rection of the arsenal the crews of
navy tugs and municipal fire boats
redoubled their energies.

START OF~GREAT WHITE WAY"
First Attempt at Electric IIIumna-
ton In New York Took Place in
December, 1880.

The first electric illumination OF a
New York street was attempted De
cember 20, 1880, when trial was
given to the new system of street
lighting. With the crude apparatus
then in use the result was far from
brilliant, and was but dim forecast
of the wonders to be accomplished in
the future.
AS a result of this and other tests
it was predicted by many experts"
that electricity could never take the
place OF gas as an economical and
efficient method of lighting streets.
Poor as it was, however, the first
electric display of street illumination
in the American metropolis marked the
dim beginning Of the Great White
Wax" and the transformation OF
Brosdway by night into scene Of daz-
cling splendor such as our grandpa
Tiers could never have dreamed of.
The first display of electric light
ing on a large scale was at the Paris
exposition of 1873. when the wonders
of the electric candle" of Paul Jab-
loenkoff, a Russian engineer, startled
the world. The Partisan display, how
ever, was dim and droll compared with
the marvels since accomplished.

The mistIetoe Bird.

The Australian sflower-pecker, or
MISREPRESENTATION furnishes an eX-
ample of the interesting partnership
between plants and birds. Although
partial TO honey, fruits and insects,
the little swallow is an inyeterate con-
sumner of mistletoe-seed. The mistle-
toe propagates only in the assures OF
bark and wood, and Judgment is eff
fected literally through the pecker.
The missel-thrush or storm-cOck per-
forms the same humble service for the
mistletoe in England. The flower
pecker is found in India. Malaysia and
all Australia, except Tasmania, where
the mistletoe does not grow. The bird
is a gray, bright-eyed chap, glossy
blue-black above, scarlet on throat,
breast and under base Of tail, white
with a black central line on abdomen
and dusky on TANKS. His wife dresses
more soberly-dingy above. buff on
throat and breast; and pale scarlet
under base of tail. The nest is beau
tiful little .fnely-felted structure, with
dome, usually suspended in clump Of
mistletoe.
