Lasting 30 Years

NEW ORLEANS, Feb, rs.
THIRTY years ago, when
Franz Smith knew Anna
Schmidt in Steinbach, Hol-
land, she was a golden-haired
gretchen barely reaching his
shoulder - but tim e has
wrought changes in their rel

He discovered this when he
met her aboard the steamship
Frisia, in preparation for
their wedding, which occurred
at the immigration office.
The prospective groom iden-
titled his bride-to-be with
some difficulty, for she was
a full head taller than he.
Franz and Anna attended
school together when they
were children. They made a
tryst and the childhood TO-
nance endured.

7 SAILORS DIE,
Z INJURED, AS
VESSELS CRASH
American Steamer lowan in
Collision With British Ship
Off Altoona.
By international News Service.

PORTLAND, Ore, May 29.-Sever
sailors were killed and two in
jured in a collision of the British
steamer Welch Prince with the
American Hawaiian steamer Iowan
early today IN the Columbia river,
Ore, off Altoona, according to wire
less messages picked up at Fort
Stevens.
Three Of the men killed were new
hands, signed at Portland three days
ago. The crew has been taken
aboard the tug Oneonta.
The Welch Prince went down
thirty minutes after the ships
crashed, with her superstructure
still above water and blazing from
the fire that followed the collision
He'd bow badly dented and taking
water, the distilled Iowan stood by
the stricken British freighter fight
ing the flames and took off the
Welch's crew, which numbered
fory-three.
She was assisted by the tug One
onta, which rushed to the scene OF
the wreck from Astoria.
Reports conflicted as to just what
followed the crash. Early reports
indicated that the boilers OF the
ship exploded setting her on fire
According to the wireless operator
at Fort Stevens, there was no ex
plosion but the fire broke out al
most Immediately after the crash
He was in communication with
the Iowan the greater part OF the
night and said that according tc
his advices, the dead were killed
by the crash.
1t is believed here that the
Welch Prince was endeavoring tC
beach herself when she sank. thus
accounting for her superstructure
remaining above water.
The Iowan was inward bound
for Portland from Seattle and car
ried a crew OF about fifty men. /,
is belieYed all of these escaped
injury. She is a vessel Of $500
tons and was operated by the
william Diamond Company OF San
Francisco.
The Welch Prince was operated
by the Verniss Prince line, a great
English cargo carrying firm, was
outbound heavily laden for the
Orient.

EGYPTIANS HAD FINE
SURGEONS IN 100 3. c

CHICAGO, May 29.-Egyptians as
early as 1900 B. c. were able TO per.

PARIS, May 29.-As a result OF
the heat wave, lace or all variety
returned to fashionable favor at
Longchamps yesterday, when trans
Atlantic society turned out en- masse
to watch the Cadran Stakes, zone
OF the biggest races Of the season.
Four Of the five entries were ridden
by American Jockeys.
In an effort to stay cool, women
wore gowns of the flimsiest possible
cluding "slashed backs" bare shoul-
ders, bare legs and crocodile side
sandals.
Nina Myral. popular revue star,
wore a "irreducible minimum" gown
consisting of layers of wavy black
chantilly lace deeply weed" in front.
while a skillful slash in the rear
revealed practically an entire ex.
panse Of back, said to be the love
liest in Europe.
Another stage star wore a low
cut evenin gown, the shoulders
thinly> veiled with fragile netting
descending from a wide hat.
Long handled parasols of queer
shapes and vivid colors were car.
ried. Much amusement was created
when many women insisted that
their men companions carry the
parasols in order that the women'r
hands would be free to carry lap
dogs, monkeys, and other fashion
able pets.
The biggest sensation, however
was when Pierre des Moulins, an
actor and son Of the noted authUr
started the socl<less fad, his care
fully shaven limbs encased in white
| duck trousers, surmOunted by a
black cutaway coat and a tall gray
felt hat.
Andre de FouQuieras, a famous
dandy, after prolonged study
pronounced the new fashion i'm
| modest and unsuitable to men,
He also condemned the popular
male attire of V-cut shirts.
Among the great throng OF Amer
leans, William II. Vanderbilt was
noticed telling friends about the
