WILL RAISE SUNKEN SHIP
Probe of New York Blaze Plot Will Be
Made by Federal Officials.

New York, Nov. 22.-Salvage op-
orators today started to raise the
steamship Tanamo, which was par
TALLY sunk yesterday a her pier to
extinguish the fire in her forward
holds. The fire, according 10 associ-
ates of Gov. i. Mont Rely of Porto
Rico, who was a passenger. was start
ed by Porto Rican secessionists in a
plot against his life.
The fire which was discovered last
Thursday night fifty hours out from
San Juan, was believed to be under
control when the ship arrived Sunday.
Opening of the matches yesterday
caused the flames to break out afresh.
So rapidly did they spread that Fire
Chief Jenlon ordered the forward
holds flooded. AS a result the
steamer settled into the waters of her
slip until her forward decks were
awash. Water tight bulkneads pre-
vented the water from reaching the
engine room or the aft holds.
When the water is pumped out in
surance underwriters and government
agencies will search the wreckage to
discover if possible, evidence of what
caused the fire.

Get Nerve
Force from
Nuxated Iron

1t will strengthen your nerves and in
crease your 'vigor and endurance, often in
two weeks time. 1t contains the principal
chemical constituent of active living nerve
force in form which most nearly resem-
bles that in the brain and nerve cells of
man. 1t also contains organic iron like
the iron in your blood. and like the iron
in spinach, lentils and apples. Organic
iron enriehes the blood and plenty of rich
red blood means more nerve force, so that
Nuxated Iron not only feeds what might
be termed artificial nerve force to the
nerve cells, but it stimulates the blood to
manufacture a greatly increased supply of
new nerve force. Get a bottle Of Nuxated
Iron today, and if within two weeks time
you do not feel that it has increased your
nerve force, and made you feel better and
stronger in every. way, your money will be
rufunded. Sold by all druggists.-Adv.

club members who were hostesses- TO
their associate members and a num-
ber of guests.
Both Mrs. Yaggy and Mrs. Bollinger
were artists in the true sense. The
former will appear this evening ac-
cOmpanied by Mrs. BOllinger in con-
cert in Lawrence playing a joint pro-
gram with Vera Poppe, the celloist-
In the program given by Mrs.
Yaggy, each number displayed a diff
ferent style, and from the opening
number, a Mendelssohn Concerto, to
the closing one, which was the first
two movements of Sonata Opus 100 by
Brahms she displayed true feeling and
a wonderful mastery Of the bow. The
bowling was especially fine in the
Mozart Minuet. The number most
pleasing to the audience seemed to be
the Schubert Ave Maria" which was
beautifully and feelingly played.
Mrs. Newman was a wonderful ac-
companist as well as a splendid solo
ist. Not every one who is a good
soloist is indispensable as an accom-
panist, as accompanying is an art in
itself. Light of the Noon" by De-
busy, was perhaps the most artistic
number while the Schumann-Liszt
Spring Night" was the most difficult
The Chopin 'Nocturne," which Mrs.
Newman played, was given with much
feeling and her melody tones were
lovely. The whole concert was a
thoroly enjoyable affair.
Both Mrs. Yaggy and Mrs. Newman
were guests of Mrs. Carol Merriam.
Mrs. Newman and Miss Elizabeth
Hopkins, formerly of Topeka, have
studied with the same teacher in New
York.
