 The Minnesota, the worlds largest freight ship, built at Groton, Conn.,, with her sister ship. the Dakota, for the late James J.

American ship ping men said the great size of the Minnesota prevented them from talk ing her over. The Dakota was wrecked on 8 Pacific shoal before the war.

NINE PERISH IN FARM HOUSE FIRE
Aged Man And Eight Grand children Are Victims In
 Tragedy

OIL CITY, Pa, Jan. 1.-Nlne per- sons were killed in fire that de- stroyed farm house at Tylersburg near Shippenvilfe, Clarion county. to- day.
 The victims were James Mentzer and his eight grandchildren, seven of them being children of Claude Elm minger, at whose home the fire oc- cured. The other victim was Michael McManigle, 14, who was visiting at the Emminger home.
 The fire was discovered by Mrs Emminger, who had been sick and was sleeping on the first floor of the house. She was awakened by the fumes of smoke and groped her way to the stairway, summoning her hus- band.
 Emminger succeeded in rescuing Mrs. Mentzer from the second floor and attempted several times to re- turn for the children and their grandfather, but each time was driven back by the flames and smoke. He was badly burned about the face and hands.
 The high wind accompanying the cold wave was believed to have been the indirect cause of the fire. The Emmlnger family had been using gas from their own well until recently when they began to burn coal. A soot fire in a defective flue was be- lieved to have been famed to such a heat that it set fire to the house.
 The ruins were searched after the fire had burned itself out and the charred bones of the nine victims were placed in small box and taken to the Tylersburg Methodist church where funeral services will be held tomorrow.

SIX BLOWN ID BITS IN 0|L WELL BLAST
Seventh Man Has Narrow Escape In NitrogIycerine
 Explosion

OIL CITY, Pa, Jan. 1.-Six per- sons were killed in Stanley this afternoon when a quantity of nitro glycerine exploded at well near Franklin.
 All six were in the rig of the oil well that was about to be shot and all were blown to bits. One man who had just left the well was blown into a hole and miraculously escaped injury.
 When Kinnear, who was to shoot the well, opened the can containing l5 quarts of nitro -glycerihe, he warned those present as spectators to move back.
 kinnear was pouring the explosive when it let go, and his body was blown to bits. Only few bones had eeen found tonight. The bodies of the other five victims were badly mangled, but each was recognizable.
 The force of the explosion rocked houses within a radius of mile and shook windows here, five miles away. A wrench, weighing 125 pounds, was hurled through a stell oil tank 50 feet away

RADIO DEVELOPES NEW TYPE VOICE
Surpasses In Sweetness And Technique, Declares Music
 Teacher

l.. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Jan. 1.-Ra- dio is developing an entirely new type of vocal artists with voices sur- passing in sweetness and technique those of concert and theatrical stars, it was declared today by Miss Eleanor Poehler, music educational teacher of the northwest, and said to be the only woman executive director in complete charge of large radio broadcasting station.
 Miss Poehler, as director of broad- casting station WLAG. has for some time been experimenting with these
 radio voices" and developing them.
 There are thousands of radio voices in this country alone which are of surpassing sweetness" Miss Eoehler said, but because they have not the volume required to fill even small halls, have not heretofore been heard outside of circles of friends. The professional stage, the concert platform and operatic con. panies have all been forced to choose only the voices of the greatest power, and in so doing they have been forced to sacrifice that quality of sweetness which was most appealing.
 "'The acoustics of the air'-the sys- tenn of sound application which has made possible the present develop ment of radio broadcasting-has- sup piled the volume and power neces- - sary to these sweeterNvoices. A. though they would not be heard dis tinctly across the footiiShts, radlu waves carry them hundreds ami thousands of miles to millions 0! listeners.
 New voices are also popularizing new songs or old ones. Favorites de- veiop as they do from the stage"
