From tho ton million dollar
Tltanlu largest of all vessels

turns, Wounded to death by rolllslon
with mi Iceberg, hIio waH sinking off
tho Grand Hunks of Newfoundland
with two thousand two hundred pas
nuugers and crew.
luHtuutly every steamship that
hoard the call bonded for the Titanic
at top speed under forced draught.
Hut none una nenr enough. Tho Ti
tanic, bollevcd to bo uuslukublo, was
sorely wounded. The biggest vessel
built by man had but four hours of
life
When the Cnrpathtn, first of the
ronculng fleet, arrived at daybreak,
tho great altlp had plunged to her
grave In ocean's depths. All that
was left of hor was hor lifeboats with
loss than nine hundred of her twen
ty two hundred passongerH and crew.
Nearly all of tho saved nro women
and children.
In that fact Is tho consolation and
tho prldo of the worst disaster to a
single ship, In point of loss of life,
that history has yet recorded. Tho
old and proud tradition of seafaring
inou of tho Engllsh-sDenklng races
was not forgotten on tho sinking Ti
tanic. "Women nnd chlldreu flrstl"
Evory sea has heard that command
to stand fast and dlo that the weak
er and tho helpless might be saved.
On every sea has it been obeyed by
strong men of our race. The lesser
broods "without the law" may do oth
erwise. Hut this Is our law.
"Women nnd chlldreu flrstl"
That is our patent of nobility as a
r.u-o. And whatever nnd whoever
may have been to blame for tho
tragedy of tho Titanic, lot us not for

'The Time Is Coming
When the Electric Motor
Will Move the World"
Said Thomas A. Edison recently:
Certain types of engines have more than 200
reciprocating parts. t The electric motor has
but one moving or revolving part.
Many of the prosperous factories of the state
aro operated today with electricity served
from central generating stations.
Central station electric power increases output
and saves cost.
Our power solicitor will make careful investi
gations of power problems and render depend
able, scientific reports, without charge.
