the first opportunity which Mrs. Robbins
many friends had 20 greet her since her
return to Washington and she was kept
very busy with greeting and serving the
callers. Many were astonished to find
that Mrs. Robbins brown tresses of a
year ago are now quite gray. She
was one of the early champions of
the bobbed hair and she still main
tains this preference. Mrs. Gillett
wore a robe Of salmon silk with frou-
frous of lace and IL was made In one
piece with slight suggestion of a
waist line in the rolled draplngs. As
the Speakers home is next door TO
that Of the Secretary of State and
Mrs. Hughes, the congestion from 4
until 6 o'clock, the two hours that
the ladies and their aides received,
rendered necessary the assistance of
what seemed a phalanx of police.
The chaffeurs OF callers, in frogged
overcoats and military-looking caps.
were lined on the opposite corners
and at first sight gave the alarming
appearance OF the reserves having
been called out. So difficult did ar
rivals and departures by cars prove
that few attempted to alight either
before Mr.. Hughes house or that of
the Speaker, but preferred to park
blocks away and take chances on

ALL ENDEAVORS FAIL TO SOLVE MYSTERY
 MISSING WARSHIPS

WAHINGTON, D. C., April 23.- More than one thousand American naval men have gone down to watery graves in score of vessels that have disappeared from the face of the earth, without trace. From the brig Reprisal lost in September, TIT, to the tug Conestoga, that dis appeared in the Pacific in 1921, there is chapter of naval history on which the navy department is able to throw but little light.
 Outstanding among the unaccount- ed for craft in modern days is the naval collier Cyclops, concerning which there is a maze of fanciful theory, but no official fact.
 During a wide stretch of years from the Civil War period to nearly the World War era, naval annals are devoid of entries concerning lost ships. Three have vanished from the seas since the beginning of the present century, however, in spite of the much vaunted safety to be found in modern apparatus of com munication. Many of the lost ships

AMERICAN PASTIMES
 WINNING F0OTH0LD
 CONSERVATIVE ITALY

ROME, April 24.-Serious students of the drama in the United States who complain loudly of the growing tendency of the moving picture, and point to the subordination of the stage to the silversheet as an indica- ton of Americas provinciality and uncouthness in matters of art, have no Italian brethern in arms to check the growth of popularity in Italy of all moving pictures, and especially those from the United States.
 The fact is that, while there are few people here who consider the cinema a form of art, the moving picture is carrying everything before it and is rapidly becoming the favor ite form of amusement of a large section of the population of the big ger Italian cities.
 Rome, for example, with a popula tion under 100000, and burdened by weighty conventions and traditions of dignified rejection of modern fads already has about thirty movie hous- es, many of them quite large, and usually filled to the doors. And sew eral weeks ago, the Supercinema, seating $500 persons, was added to the list This house, like several other large ones, shows the best American, German, French and Eng fish moving pictures. It is said to be the largest in Europe and it cer tainly is one of the most beautiful. And the moving picture has brot with it advertising on an American
 scale to support the already strong tendency toward Americanization felt
 in many walks of Rome life. The billboards are plastered with huge posters and the newspapers filled
 with display advertising to boost the films.

Radio Protects Mariners
 Making Rugged Vancouver

SEATTLE, April 24.-Radio has brought notable measure of pro- tection to vessels approaching the rocks of the west coast of Vancou- yer Island. Last winter not ship equipped with radio was lost i'll this graveyard of the Pacific, while in past years the toll nas been as high as ten wrecks and numerous deaths to passengers and crew.
 The improvement is due to the building of three radio telegraph di- rection finding stations on and near the island, which, by working togeth- CT with a ship with wireless, can fell the vessel her exact loca ton and guide her safely to port.
 The mouth of the Strait of Jaun de Fuca is but 15 miles wide and here tides and winds come from ail directions. Vessels coming to Pu. get Sound from any point on the Pa cific must head straight for the great body of Vancouver Island, 300 miles long before turning into the strait

were last heard of in the vicinity of the West Indies. The department has listed these vessels as missing without trace, and abandoned hope for their recovery:
 Reprisal, lost September, TIT; General Gates, 1777; Saratoga, 17S1; Insurgent, 1900; Pickering, 1900; the Hamilton, 1913; Wasp III, 1913; Ep- ervier, 1915; Lynx, 1921; Wildcat, 1929; Hornet, 1929; Sylph, 1889; Sea Gull, 1889; Grampus, 1S43; Jefferson, 1850; Albany I, with 210 men, 1854; Levant II, with 21O men, 1860; tug Nina, sailed from Norfolk and never heard from, 1910; collier Cyclops, with 293 persons comprising 14 Of ficers, and 222 men, and 57 passen- gers, sailed March f, 1919, from Bar badoes, West Indies; and tug Con- estago, with four officers and g men from Mare Island, Cal, for Pearl Harbor Hawaii, 1922
 Naval vessels have searched the seas for tidings of these missing craft but their fate remains mystery Naval officers consider the case of the Cyclops unusually puzzling, for she was equipped with radio and ap- parently encountered no storms, her captain last reporting all we'll and fair weather. She was 542 feet long 65 feet beam and 19,O0O tons Theo- ries exist that the Cyclops was inn properly loaded and split in two; that her machinery was disabled and her radio put out of commission and that she was scuttled, and that an enemy submarine destroyed her, but official information regarding her is wholly lacking.

Three Endurance Runs
 Show Stamina of Horse

WASHINGTON, D. O., April 24.- Interest in horses, eclipsed with the advent of automobiing, is believed by members of the American Remount Association again to be in ascendant They point to the three big endur. ance races for 1925 in Idaho, Colo rado and Vermont as proof.
 At Boise, Idaho, some time in Sep ten1ber, 3O0-mile endurance test Is to be held, under the auspices of the Boise Chamber of Commerce and the adju,ant general of the Idaho Nation al Guard. Members Of the AmeIi- can Remount Association expect the event to be similar to that held there last year when it occupied the week of September If, was based on Boise and consisted of a 60-mile stretch for five consecutive days.
 The Colorado endurance ride will h: held at Broadmoor, Colorado. Sep. 21-o5. inclusive This event also will be over a total course Of 300 mics. extending 60 miles each day for five days.
 Later in the fall, on October 19, a; yet undecided point in Vermont, the 1925 eastern endurance ride will begin. Brandon, Vt, is being favor ed in the selection by special com mittee which has the location ill hand. Regulations will be similar to those which governed last years ride except the reduction in weight from 225 to 200 pounds.
 This ride will be 300 miles total divided into five days of 50 miles each. An effort is being made to make it international this year, by securing Canadian entries.

 WELL PERFORMED DUE
 SENTRIES OF THE SEA

WASHINGTON, D. C., April 24.- Annually the coast guard is writing new and thrilling chapters of marine history by its protection of life at sea and its war on rum runners, but between times it also is attending successfully to a multitude of small nothing.
 One of the most unusual requests ever received was from the head of a religious cult for specimens of the purest sands of the sea- wanted to heal bodily and spiritual ills. A station in the vicinity of Cape Hat teras. without passing on the cura- tive qualities, has agreed to supply pure sea sand as requested.
 The department of agriculture call ed upon the coast guard to locate a place suitable for bee culture, un- der prescribed conditions, and free from objectionable vegetation. A propitious spot was found near h. dian River Inlet on the Delaware coast Samples of marine growths, singing sands" and other objects gathered, upon request, by the coast guard. Many times it has wrestled with the question, What is the most | dangerous part of the cOast?" pro- pounded by some curious correspon dent
 Messages in bottles washed up on l the beaches are coming to be written into the logs of coast guard sta tions with progressing frequency. Re gently one was picked up in a whis key bottle, the writer of the com munication saying he had been shang haied aboard a rum craft and was being held against his will on rum row.
 l Restoring lost children to their par
 ents, protecting wrecked property fighting forest fires, aiding children
 to get to school through coastal
 stormstricken regions and assisting
 surveying parties, all are among the odd jobs in which the coast guard has had major role.

LEAD PICKED UP
 NUKA BAY MINE
 AFEW DAYS AGO
FAULT STRUCK NUMBER DAYS AGO PICKED UP-APPEARS
 RICHER THAN EVER
Cyanide Plant Operate Soon
Frank Skeen Says Short Stretch of New Road Is CommendabIe
 Piece of Work

Following a 42-foot fault in the lower tunnel the lead was picked up in the Alaska Hills Mines company at Nuka Bay last week, according of the company, who has been in Seward for the past number of days. The lead apparently is richer than ever and measures between II and 15 inches in width, cuts the forma ton and is solid in place. The fault was struck about ten days ago and since that time driving has been going on steadily. The news of picking up the lead was received with much ela- tion, especially when it became known the ore is of the same splendid qual- ity as that of the previous, if not better.
 The cyanide plant is just about com pleted and will be in operation with in few days, it is announced. Car penters have the three tanks com pleted at this time. It is expected that at least 80 per cent of gold will be recovered from the tailings.
 MT. Skeen commended the work of the Alaska Road Commission crew which recently completed the two- mile road to the mine. He states, for the small amount of funds ap- for the project, he has never seen a better piece of road, 1 anywhere in the Territory, and es- pecially, when it is remembered that so much hard rock was encountered. |
 Until he returns to the property
