Statue of Prince

LONDON, November 2l.-A
statue of the Prince Of Wales that
has been admired by millions and
criticized by few is to be melted
down and made into soap. 1t is
a three ton butter model Of the
prince wearing his headdress and
robes as chief Morning Star Of the
Stony Indians, which throughout
the last year of the British Empire
exhibition at Wembley, has been
one OF the most popular attractions
Of the Canadian Building.
But, like the largest squash from

will consume him because preserv-

inedible.
Artists have not protested. Per-
haps the refrigeration plant went

to have settled down into his boots
and Is much too "stoutish" for
those critics who admired the stat
uary for its art rather than for the

CRAFT STRANDED
IN BOSTON HARb0R
DUE TO HEAVY FOG

Boston, Feb. 10-Several craft were
aground tonight in Boston harbor as
the result of trying to find their way
through the dense fog which almost
without intermission has shrouded
the shipping channels today.
The British steamer City of Boston,
carrying a cargo from the Orient and
bound for New York. edged out OF
dock this morning. After being held
in the upper harbor until this after
noon, she attempted to run out when
the vapor bank lifted momentarily.
The fog suddenly descended again
and the ship grounded on the mud
of the lower middle. It was believed
that she would be re-floated at high
tide tonight.
The police boat Guardian, attempt
ing to put to sea through the Mar
rows, was stranded on Ram Head
bar. A tug was sent to aid the boat
tonight. The fishing schooner May
flower was stuck on the same bar.
Throughout the morning a fleet of
more than a dozen ships which had
come from distant parts of the world
was anchored below. waiting for the
fog to unbar the entrance to Boston.
A slight lifting of the vapor banks
late in the afternoon enabled them
to slip in as far as quarantine. Mar
row escapes were reported frequent
ly as huge black shapes with screech-
ing whistles doomed up through the
mists. No collisions were reported,
however.
