SHIP, j, 80 ABOARD,
IS BELIEVED LOST
Steamer 'WiIIar Encounters
Terrific Gale on Lake
Superior.
sAULr STE MARIE. Mich, Novem-

SAULT STE MARIE, Mich, Novem-
Der 13.-Sixty hours overdue at this
port, the steamer Francis J. Willar. a
steel freighter. with crew of thirty
three men, is believed to have foun-
dered in Lake Superior, northeast of
Whitef1sh point.
Capt. William Mesier Of the steamer
John E. Rickson, which arrived here
tonight, after battling her way
through a severe storm, reported that
he saw a vessel believed to be the
Willar drifting toward Pancake shoals
before the gale.
At the height Of the storm the ves-
sells lights disappeared.
The unidentified steamer accord
ing to Capt. Mesier, passed his vessel
as he was taking shelter near the
treacherous shoals. His ship lay in
shelter for hours afterward. but he
saw no further signs of the other
vessel, Capt. Mesier added. He be-
lieved it would have been impossible
for a helpless steamer to weather the
storm. His own vessel, he said. was
turned about completely several times,
and once was believed to be at the
mercy of the gale, which he said, was
one of the most furious he had ever
experienced on Lake Superior.
Wrecking tugs were ordered tonight
to proceed to the vicinity Of Pancake
Shoals in search of the Willar.
The vessel was in command of Capt
Arthur Forbes of Ashtabula, Ohio.
She was owned by the Becker Steam
ship Company and carried 5.O0O-ton
cargo Of haxseed from the Canadian
Northwest. She was 446 feet long,
and registered 5000 tons.
Reports from coast guard stations
and other vessels on the lake today
brought no news of the position of
the Willar.

ton for the speech he will deliver
next Thursday at New Orleans.
The President-elect and his party
virtually were marooned for the day,
the cold norther which blew up yes

ing grounds of Laguna Madre and a
downpour of rain making the winding
dirt road into Brownsville practically
impassabls. He had hoped at least to
go in for golf game at the Browns
Vile Country Club, but automobile
drivers pronounced the trip impracti-
cable.

Unless the weather moderates by
tomorrow the Harding party may be
moved to a Brownsville hotel. Local
weather sharps thought tonight. how
ever, that tho storm would be over
in few hours and that warmer
weather would follow. Mr.. Harding
wants to remain here and get one
more try at tarpon fishing of Point
Isabel If possible. 1t is about twenty
miles to Brownsville along a road
that is little more than a trail through
cactus and mesquite, and for fifteen
miles of the way there are no houses
visible from the roadway. An old
style narrow gauge railroad train OF
two cars. hauled by gasoline engines,
makes the trip each way once day.
and today it was used in preference
to motor cars by two or three mem
bers Of Mr.. Harding's party, who took
permanent leave of Point Isabel and
started for home.

ed on a number of other members
of his party in the unheated rooms
of the hotel which was erected for
summer accommodations and not to
shelter guests against a norther, such
as that which has swept the coast
the last two days.
One of the messages that has reach
ed Mr.. Harding here is an invita-
ton to visit the city and republic of
Panama during his weeks stay in
the canal zone. Despite his hesitancy
in his present position to enter the
territory of any foreign nation, he is
to have replied that he
would be glad to receive delegation

 THOUGHT OF THIS
New York Day Nursery Takes Foot prints to Identify Various
 Babies.

New York, Jan. "A system of taking footprints of children has been adopted in the New York Nursery and Child's hospital to prevent infants born there from going to the wrong mothers. It's adoption was due to the fact that a soldiers wife who re-
 gently gave birth to baby in that hospital at first denied that the child
 was hers. The young mother, who had
 been reading stories of accidental sub
 stitution of children at hospitals. and similar public. institutions declined: to
 nurse the baby. = -
 We brought. all the proofs we could 'muster,'' explained the 'superin
 tendent, but the mother persisted in her Authorization. She became hys-
 terical with grief and fright. Finally,
 I brought her our records which
 showed that only little colored baby
 and her own had been born in the hospital that day. That convinced her, but just think of what would have happened to that poor woman if other ! white babies had been born here on the same day."
 In order to avoid a similar; experf> ence the superintendent engaged
 Gngerprint expert to instruct the head nurse in trying the system on the 1 babies. We found we couldn't get | good prints of their hands, said the
 official Their feet, however, came !. out beautifully and for greater se- 1 curity the mother is finger-printed l also.''
