Here Knuefken left the ship and
eventually made his way back to Ham

to five years in the penitentiary.
Meanwhile, members of the crew who
had remained with the Senator Schroe-

plotted to steal the ship and return
to Cuxhaven.
Getting permission to 60 out on a
fishing trip they overpowered their

YEAST GIVES new
STRENGTH TO
WEAK PEOPLE

Everybody is talking about yeast
and Of the apparent miracles 1t is
performing in bringing new strength
and health to weak, run down men and
women.
The reason is that yeast contains a
vital substance known as vitamines,
which we do not get in most of our
foods. These vitamines are absolutely
necessary to the system, and it is be-
cause people do not get enough of
them that they become thirk pale,
weak and old before their time.
Ordinary yeast cakes. however, con-
tain only about 20 per cent real yeast.
The most efficient form of yeast Is
brewers yeast, highly concentrated
This is the basis of the great new
tonic, Ironized Yeast, which is bring
ing almost incredible results every
where, especially in treating weak
ness, thinnes and general rundown
condition. Contains iron as wen as Vi
tamies, and being in tablet form is
pleasant to take.

the rat proofing and the Intensive
trapping that has gone on for more
than year, but it is also due in part,
no doubt, to the antipathy many citi-
zens have developed for the pests. Peo-
pie are much more careful that no food
IS left where they can get it. and when
there is suspicion of their presence
poison and traps are placed for them
Immediately. Such intelligent co-opv
Grafton on the part of "Pensacola's
best" has done much toward making
the campaign a success. OF course,
there has been opposition. many per-
sons have been free in expressing their
disbelief-but that is another story. 1t
is gratifying to note that some of the
most forcefuI opponents of the rat
proofing requirements are now willing
to admit that the expenditures were
not entirely without economic value,
some even say that it Is worth all that
it cost.
1t is considered advisable to continue
to trap and examine rats for a year
after the last infected rat is found,

LEAVES
WITH BIG CARGO

The sternwheeler Capt. Fritz left
the Baylen street wharf yesterday ar
ternoon with large cargo Of misceI-
laneous freight destined to points
along Choctawahatchee bay. Capt. Lee
Tucker is in charge. and it said that
business in general along Choctawa-
hatchee bay is beginning to show vast
improvement. The reason for the in
crease In the trading Is accounted for
by the manner in which the mer-
chants have been allowing their stocks
to dwindIe on account Of the uncertain
markets, and now are having to re-
plenish their stocks at present market
prices to furnish their customers with
goods.

Gotham Struggling
With Problems of
Congested Traffic
IBy AssOcintea PreAsl

New York, Sept. 21-Again they're
tinkering with New York's traffic.
The police department long has
been unable to dodge the law of ply
sizes that two objects can't occupy the
same space at the same minute. And
with the number of automobiles in
creasing daily and the crowd of pc
destrians holding its own, the traf-
fic problem is becoming worse.
In the old days, traffic went up and
down Broadway much the same way
it does in any Main street the coun-
try over-though with the same hec-
tic confusion that reigns in the sub
ways beneath the world-famous tho
roughfare.
But little while ago it was decid-
ed that at night, at hours when most
theater-goes were bound up Man
haitian to their homes, Broadway be-
tween 38th and 57th streets should
become one-way street.
Now that plan has been abandon
ed. Merchants have complained that
the northbound nightly traffic was
diverting to other thoroughfares
business which should come to them
So Special Deputy Police Commits
sioner Harris has ruled that for a
30-day trial period two-way traffic
shall be restored-to be regulated by
signal towers such as have been OPP
Grating for many months on Fifth
avenue. Signal lamps atop these
towers command traffic all along
