ENGLISH STEAMSHIP
CONCERNS PLAN FOR
BIG SUMNER TRAVEL

London (by A. PD-The steamship
companies are anticipating a buster
transportati ton season than ever this
spring and summer, with Americans
as usual occupying the ma jority of
first class cabins. Six of the largest
transatlantic liners, including the
Leviathan. Homeric and Mauretania
resumed their regular crossings this
week. terminating the winter service
and so making happy foreigners on
both sides of the ocean who like to
hear from home more frequently
than is possible during the cold
months, when most of the fast ships
are either idle or have gone off to
the Mediterranean or on other spe-
cial cruises.
The influx of ordinary tourists is
expected to be supplemented during
the coming summer by the Wemblv
Exhibition, Holy Year in Rome and
the Decorative Arts Exhibition in
Paris.
Wembly will open this spring with
almost everything it had last year
and more besides. but many Of the

hibition in 1924 will not be there this

Since the Stone age the accepted
method of catching fish has been
to inveigle 1t onto a hook. Catching
fish in a net is also a method of
considerable antiquity.
1t has been left to the Americans to
evolve the latest method of catching
fish-that of sucking them up with a
pump,
A tube running fore apd aft of the
fishing vessel empties into q tank,
and an eightinch motor driven CEN
trifugal pump at the forward end
sucks in about IA tons of fish and
water a minute.
This goes into the tank which
catches the fish and allows the water
TO run off. The method is simple and
eNtiaordinarily efficient. for if the
boat passes through shoal. more
than two tons of fish a minute may
he caught.

Domesticated Animals

Among the animals which have
been tanned and domesticated by man
may be mentioned the horse, dog
and cat. These three are considered
pets by many people, but in that re-
spect the dog and cat lead the horse.
OF these three the horse is I'M
douhtedly the most intelligent and
useful, as is attested by the large
number of them still in use for vari-
Gus purposes. When thoroughly
tanned he is as gentle as a lamb and
causes very little destruction. Every
body loves the horse.
Next in usefulness and intelligence
comes the dog. BY many he is con-
Sidered mans best friend, but he
cannot compare in usefulness with
the horse except in certain localities
where it is impossible to use horses.
There he is sometimes used as a
beast of burden. His greatest value
is as protector of the home and hui
mans. Many times he has proved
himself a hero by rescues from
drowning or fire. Some of his species
are an annoyance to us bipeds be-
cause of their bowling at times, but
most of us like them. They are not
very destructive.
The cat is probably the most mum
erous and most petted of these three
animals. 1t is also the most useless
and most treacherous. Its principal
usefulness consists in keeping mice
out of the home. Seldom will IL at
tack any rodent larger than a mouse
Sometimes it is too indolent to dc
even that. But if you leave any food
such as meat and fish. standing on
the table and leave the room, 10 to /
the cat will jump on the table and
eat some of it. And if you have a
bird, look out for it or the cat will
get it. 1t matters not how well you
feed it, You cannot trust it Cats are

killed in West Palm Beach by an
automobile Fastening to the fire.
The Palm Beach fire chief shortly
before Z o'clock tonight announced
that it had been determined definitely
that the Breakers Hotel fire started
from an electrical appliance used by
a crippled woman guest occupying
an upper southeast room. When the
woman was taken from the room 1t
was said that it's interior was af1ame.
Four cottages belonging to the
Breakers Hotel, lying Immediately
south of it, were burning at seven
o'clock. One of these was occupied
by Leonard thl and another by
Charles L. Choate. Jr., both of Bos-
ton. A number of shops lying along
the north lake trail in the vicinity
of the Palm Beach Hotel also were
burned.
The Palm Beach Hotel. a $50 room
structure, was in direct line with
the breeze tanning the Breakers
fire, less than half a mile away. and
it caught fire shortly before six
o'clock. Calls for assistance We're
sent to all fire departments from
Fort Pierce along the east coast
down to Fort Lauderdale.
A crowd of approximately lO,OOo
persons assembled near the Break
ers and police were forced to throw
a line about the burning building.
AS the walls of the south wing fell,
the heat became so intense that some
of the onlookers were slightly burn
ed before they could fall back.
The Breakers Hotel. succeeded the
Old Palm Beach Inn, which was
built by Henry M. Flagler interests
in 1885 and was destroyed by fire
about ten years ago.
The present Breakers was built
Immediately after the fire of 1873
and has been in operation since. It
