Ship on Which r. H. Van Brunt OF
Tallahassee Was Passenger, Hits
Mine and Is Blown to Pieces

Tallahassee, May 2S.--That Bel
GUM is at present the most prosper
aus nation in Europe is the opinion
Of R. H. Van Brunt, who has just
returned from stay of several
months in Belgium, Holland, England
and France, and is the guest Of his
father, o. C. Van Brunt.
Mr.. Van Bcunt says that France Is
fast recovering from the effects of the
world war, and although he did not
get into Germany it is his under
standing that country is doing we'll.
al. the countries are now in need
Of raw material and relief supplies.
In his opinion Austria is the worst
wreck left by the ravages Of the world
conflict, and the people of that coun-
try are in greater need than any 9TH
er. He has witnessed with his OWE
eyes some of the children which have
been sent from Austria to Holland to
be fed and cared for and many Of
them ere little more than skin and
bone.
Mr.. Van Brunt is special represen-
tative Of the United States Shipping
Roard, and on his last voyage to Eu-
r0pean countries had some very try
ing experiences. He sailed from New
Work on November IL, 1910, aboard
n. ship Liberty Glow which carried a
cargo of relief supplies for Germans.
Thirty days out from New York and
only eleven hours from the port in
Germany his ship struck submerged
mine which cut It from underside to
Inderside. The ship lay for fourteen
Eours before 1t finally broke to pieces
in the strong gale and high seas. At
"a. m. the crew left the ship in life
boats, and although in sight Of light
house and only five miles from the
shore, the boat Of which he was an
occupant was eleven hours making
It's way to the shore Of Holland. A
second boat landed in Holland after
thirteen hours and the third reached
m isle Of Germany in fifteen hours
with four of the ten occupants dead
from exposure.
When the ship broke the fore part
sunk but the after part hoated and
in heavy seas was washed ashore on
the isle of Aneland, Holland. For
five months it lay, exposed to the
heavy breakers and frequent gales of
the Ncrth Sea, but on account of it's
strong construction and the good work
of the salvage cmopany it was, finally
lowed to Rotterdam, where it is
Eoped tC have it repaired and put to
sea again. During the time the boat
was on the beach Mr.. Van Brunt

When loading cars with melons the
growers will be required to reclip the
melons and use the stem end paste
treatment. This paste can be secured
in packages from the depot agent and
will be enough to do two to three
cars. The law requires this to be
done.

nisrmntion of CoalItltion

DUSSELDORF. March .25.-Disrup-
ton of the coalition of socialistic
parties hat usurped control in the
Ruhr basin, Is considered improbable
as a result of the Ebert governments
military campaign. Communists here
and at Hagen have not been active,
and moderate programs have been
adopted in various cities.
The communists, however, are rep
resented on several executive COM
mittees and are credited with a dis
position to hold out for extreme meas
ures particularly regarding wages.
Independent socialists appear to
favor closer relations with the major
ity socialists because of the resigna-
ton of Gustav Noske, minister OF
defense in the Ebert cabinet, news OF
which was published here today.
The exact number of men the radi-
calls have been able to put into the
field. is not available here, but the
few past days have demonstrated the
ability of these men to whip mex
perienced recruits into quite formid-
able soldiers. who handle a rifle and
take advantage of ground conditions
like veterans.

MONMOUTH COUNTY JAIL is
UNPOPULAR; few OCCUPANTS

81 Special Correspondent.
MATAWAN, March 25-Tbe eigh
tecnth amendment to the constitution
has worked wonders in the county OF
Monmouth. Almost every town in
the county has hardly had any use
for its local lookup or jail since the
sale of liquor with a kick" in 1t has
been discontinued. So gu ct are
things about the county Jail at Free
hold that at times. even Sheriff Ell
mer ii Geran has been doubtful about
it really being a Jail.
AT this time of year which is
known as the breaking UP OF the win
ter season, the county jail usually re-
leases its winter bOarders. but this
year there are no winter boarders to
be released. Expenses at the jail have
been greatly cut down during past
few months and no exceedingly des-
perate criminals have been detained
within its doors.
In other counties is also true in Mon
mouth county at hat time had a
population of 107.636 persons. Today
this number has been greatly increas-
ed, yet in view of this fact on Tues
day night, according to Sheriff Geran
there were but eighteen people con-
fined in the county jail. AS Is true
In other counies, is also true in Mon
mouth, that the majority of the per-
sons coming to the county Jail are
sent up from towns and cities of the
county by the Justices of the peace
and recorders for i~ntoxication or dis
orderly conduct.
Since the sale of "l1ickless" liquor
has taken the place of the regular
stuff, these cases have about dsap-
peared and days go by without a COM
plant of disorderly conduct or intoX-
location being brought against a per-
son. Not only is the county jail free
of prisoners. but the borough jails
and other local jail houses are for
rent,
