Continued From First Pare.)
LONl'O.V, March , t. Official an
nouncement was made by the Admiral
ty today that the British armed mer
cantile cruiser Calgarian was torpe
doed and sunk on March 1. Two of
ficers and 46 men were lost.
BKLFAST, Ireland. March 2. The
British liner Calgarian has been tor
pedoed off the Irish coast. There were
tlO persons aboard, nearly 600 of whom
have been landed at Irish ports. The
Calgarian was struck by four torpedoes.
The Allan liner Calgarian was a ves
sel of 17.615 tons gross. 568 feet long
and 70 feet of beam. She was built in
Ulasgow In I14.
There are no published records of
he recent movements of the Calga-
ian, which for some time has been in
he service of the British government.
The last report given out concernin
he liner was In April. 11. when she
sailed from Halifax for England with
Canadian troops. 1
Attack la Force Made.
A most unusual circumstance in con
nection with the sinking of the Calga
rian la the fact that ahe was struck by
four torpedoes. So far as published
reports have shown. In no previous
case has a merchantman been sub
Jected to such a heavy attack by sub
marines. Evidently the Hermans con
centrated U-boats to ensure the sink
ing of the liner.
NEW TURK, March . The Allan liner
Calgarian. torpedoed off the Irish
coast, has been for some months aerv
ing as a British cruiser, converted from
he status of a merchantman, convoy
ing cargo ships between British ports
nd Nova Scotia, according to officers
ere of the Canadian Pacific Ocean
Service, Limited, owners of the Allan
line.
AN IRISH PORT, March 4. (By the
ssociated Press.) The people of this
town, who a few days ago won, the
gratitude of the American people by
their kindness to the survivors from
he Tuscania, have extended their hos
pitality In the last few days to nearly
500 men from the Calgarian, one of
the finest auxiliary cruisers In the At
lantic service.
The Calgarian was torpedoed in the
late afternoon, not far from the place
where the Tuscania met her doom.
First thecal Slight.
The ship's bell had just sounded 4
o'clock when a torpedo struck. The
cago. by a man giving his name as T.
W. Allen. The company telegraphed
to all Eastern livestock markets to be
on the' watch for the missing ewes.
Meantime the ewes had been re-con-
signed., cn route, and had arrived at
Omaha, Neb., where the supposed
owners placed them for sale with the
commission firm of Clay, Kobinson A
Co. Again . the fact that the
ewes were unfit for the climatic.change
and that aucb tu shipment was unheard
of, caused comment and suspicion.
The commission firm telegraphed to
the w Innemucca bank, asking for light
on the responsibility and character of
T. w. Allen. In Harney County, at
Crane, holds forth a stockman of wide
and unblemished repute, "Tom" Allen,
With this individual in mind the bank
laconically Informed the firm that Al
ien waa "O. K."
Owirra Swear Oat Warrants.
Still the suspicions of the commission
house were not allayed, and they dc
layed the sale. Then came the N-bar-N'a
meBMge, advising that the ewes
had been stolen and that warrants
were out for Allen and all his accom
plices. 1
Upon the arrest of two of the al
leged rustlers in Omaha. It was found
that Allen waa an alias of G. A. Wheat.
of San Antonio, and that bis compan
ion was C H. Bown. an uncle of Pratt,
and once a buyer for the large aheep-dealing-
firm of Swift Si Knollin. They
were brought to Vale, Or., where bail
In each instance was fixed at 31500.
Both men were uncommunicative.
though Wheat claims that Bown in
duced him to come from Texas, offer
ing nim faOQ and expenses to take a
shipment of cattle from Winnemucca
to market. He declared that he knew
nothing about the ownership of the
ewes, and that he was surprised to find
them substituted for the cattle. Bown
furnished bail without delay.
Pratt Still Traveling.
Pratt, with the missing 600, and with
the pack animals and train, has not
yet been located. It was learned that
the Southern Pacific agent at Winne
mucca was first asked for ten double
deck cars, sufficient to ship the entire
herd, but that he Informed Wheat, alias
Allen, that only seven cars were avail
able. Mr. Murphy believes that the
herder is headed across country with
the remainder of the missing flock,
bound for some unknown point where
disposal will be attempted.
"We lost 100 of the ewes from the
effects of the forced drive, which was
Inhumane In the extreme, said Mr.
Murphy yesterday. "The cruelty of
such a proceeding, to my mind, even
overwelgbs the theft, which is the
largest I have any knowledge of.
We are far from pleased with the
amount of bail fixed upon Wheat and
Bown. Here are two men, charged
with the theft of property valued at
350,000, and their bonds are fixed at
the absurd sum of $1500. As for Bown,
I should not be surprised at any time
to be told that he had disappeared."
The N-bar-N property Is largely i
owned by Portland stockholders. Its
president Is John Kiernan, while James
H. Murphy is secretary and treasurer.

LONDON, ' March 6. John E. Red
mond. the Irisn Nationalist leader, died
at 7:45 o'clock this morning. Death
followed a recent operation for an In
testinal obstruction. This was borne
courageously and It relieved the patient.
but heart failure intervened Tuesday
night.
The physicians attending Mr. Red
mond Issued the following announce
ment:
"We regret to announce that John
Redmond died at 7:45 this morning.
Owing to several serious attacks of
Illness a severe operation was laced
with great courage. It had become lirw
peratlvely necessary, owing to an in
testinal obstruction. This was relieved
by the operation and for some days
satisfactory progress was maintained.
After a fairly comfortable day Tuesday
heart fllure supervened during the
night and after a few hours Mr. Red
mond passed peacefully away."
The news of the death of tlfe Na
tionalist leader brought messages of
sorrow and regret from all sections of
the community. King George, when he
was informed of the event, was deeply
shocked and expressed his profound
regret. Premier Lloyd George was simi
larly moved when he learned the news.
It is expected the funeral will take
place In Dublin, with burial at Glas
haven Cemetery. Simultaneously a
solemn reaulem mass will be . held In
Westminster Cathedral.
Redmond became leader of the Na
tionalist party after the deposition of
Charles Stewart Parnell, "the un
crowned king of Ireland." While un
compromising in his demand for home
rule for Ireland, hi, was not a "eepa
rattst," but demanded government by
representative consent.
Redmond was born In County Wex
ford, Ireland, In 1851, and was educated
at Trinity College, Dublin. He was
elected to Parliament In 1881 from the
constituency of New Ross, which he
represented until 1885, when he was
elected as member from North Wexford,
and later represented Waterford. He
had served continuously in the House of
Commons for 37 years.
In paying tribute to the memory of
John Redmond in the House of Com
mons today. Sir Edward Carson, the
Ulster leader, eald:
'Indeed, we were not very far apart
in our attempts at a settlement of the
Irish question."
Significance seems likely to be at
tached to this expression vy the Ulsty
leader in view of the wide divergence
of opinion regarding the solution of
Ireland's troubles that formerly existed
between the Nationalist leader and the
Ulster Interests repiesented by Sir Ed
ward.

Our toys are defending
this country on the high seas
and on the land. Uur own
defense against a common
enemy is to keep the system
clean by ridding the body of
the toxins, or poisons, which
are bred in the intestines.
When you feel tired, sleepy,
headachy, when your breath
is offensive, or pimples ap
pear on the face and neck,
it is time to recognize the
dancer and protect your
bodily ' health by taking a
good laxative or liver medi
cine. .
The machinery of the body
needs to be oiled, kept in
'good condition, just as the
guns or machinery of a ship.
Why should a human person
neglect his own machinery
more than that of his auto
mobile or his euns? Yet
most people do neglect them
selves. 1 heir tongue has a
dark brown color, skin sal
low, breath bad, yet they fail
to see that their machinery
needs attention.

It is the function of tho kidneys to

more toxins and impurities than the
kidneys can eliminate, then the blood
uses the skin pores as the next best
means of getting rid of these impuri
ties which often break ot all over tho
skin in the form of pimples.
The surest way to clear the skin ot
these eruptions, says a noted authority,
is to get from any pharmacy about
four ounces of Jad Salts and take a
tablespoonful in a glass of hot water
each morning before breakfast for one
week. This will prevent the formation
of toxins in the bowels. It also stim

impurities and clearing the skin of
pimples.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of e-rapes

Here you have a pleasant, effervescent
drink which usually makes pimples
disappear; cleanses the blood and is ex
