A GREAT captain of industry
IA passed away the o.her day
at the fine old age Of s0-nearly
81.
The end came as he always
had wished it to come; while he
was still Gin harness. still
actively engaged and interested
in his business, his hobbies, his
social life.
Had he put aside the harness
a time ago and taken his ease he
might have lived few years
longer. That, however, is by the
way.
The point is that as an octoge-
marian, an age when most men
are sitting in sunny corner and
giving up their minds to dreams
of the past, this splendid figure
was discharging the duties of

ArtichOkes

ITO the uninitiated the eating Of
artichokes is mysterious
rite. Steadying the vegetables
lightly with the left hand, each
leaf is pulled off one by one, the
tender end is dipped into the
sauce in separate dish or at the
side of the plate, and separated
from the rest of the lear with the
teeth. The frond or base is one
OF the most delicious parts. This
Is tender and Is eaten with a
fork. For family service the
choke may be left in and each
person removes it as he comes to
1T before eating the frond. but for
that a knife and fork must be
served with the course.

 IN S.5l PROBE
Jury Finds Captain of Steamer
 Not Negligent

Boston, uct 21 (R,-Captain John D. piohl, who commanded the steamer City of Rome when it ram med and sank the submarine S-51 off Block Island in September, 1925. was acquitted by a jury in federal court yesterday of charges brought in connection with that disaster. in which %3 lives were lost.
 Tn" jury. after dolibcratine more than three hours, returned a verdict of not guilty on the two counts, fail ur" fp stand by q reasonable length o' time, and misconduct and negli- @'ne" in operating his vessel.
 When the verdict was reported Judge Morton, who presided at the trial made tho following statement from the bench;
 As admiralty questions are in Folved in this case I think It proper to say that l entirely concur in the verdict of the jury, and that the evidence proved pretty conclusivcly that the cause of the accident was defective lights on the submarine"
 During the trial, which opened last week, Captain Dichl took the stand in his own behalf and told his version of the accident He claimed that the submarine was running with improper lights at the time of the collision and was in charge of thro" inexperienced officers, or rockies" He said that it was i'm possible 10 tell from the bridge Of the City of Rome the direction of the S-5l from the City of Rome
 In answering the charge of fail ure to stand by after the sinking. Captain Diehl said that after three survivors of the submarines crew had been picked up by one of his lifeboats. he had circled his ship about the scene for an hour and three quarters and Wirelessed the position before proceeding for Bos- ton. He said that he had asked Dewey (. Kyle, seaman, one of the three survivors, if he thought there was chance of saving any others, and the seaman replied: Not Chance.'
 Before the case went to the jury today Kyle was recalled as rebut- tai witness for the government and denied the statements attributed to him.
