Summer Resorts Wrecked and Mil lions o f Dollars Damage Done —Snow Breaks Record. New York—Two men drowned in East River and ten men— the crews of two barges wrecked on the New Jersey coast, given up as lost—is the cost in human lives of the storm which swept over this city and this vicinity early Saturday. At Seabright, N. J., a fashionable summer resort 30 miles south of here, most of the houses have been either wrecked or are under water. Several hotels and fine residences were among those undermined and badly damaged. Seventy families are homeless. The damage done to property is es timated at $1,000,000, most of it borne by Seabright and other points along the northern section of the New Jersey coast. Most o f the damaj^ was due to bulkheads giving way un der the onslaught o f waves lashed into fury by a gale which at one time reached a velocity o f 90 miles an hour. The two three-masted barges whose crews hftve been given up as lost were in tow o f the seagoing tug Edgar F. Luckenbach. While the storm was at its worst the barges broke away and then drifted inshore midway between the lifesaving stations 15 and 16, six miles south of Seaside Park, N. J. Only the masts o f one o f the barges was visible next morning and on it was the form of a man. Both mast and man soon disappeared. Much damage has been done to the pound net fishing along the New Jer sey coast for some distance south from Sandy Hook. The estimated loss to the various plants in $100,000. At Arverne the water swept in so far that cottages were flooded and the owners were forced to move out. Bulkheads were smashed, tons of lumber were washed up on the beach and other damage was caused by the storm which raged around Atlantic City. The five miles o f meadows be tween the city and the mainland re sembled a turbulent sea. A heavy snow fell in depths varying from five to 18 inches throughout this part o f the state. In this city about five inches fell, but the record mark was set in White hall and 14 inches fell in Glenns Falls. $10,000,000 A Year W asted On Trusses Away With Worthless Makeshifts No Belt—No Leg-Straps—No Springs Does sw ay entirely with the curse o f belt», leg-straps, and sprlnga.

This action disclosed the company’s plans for resisting the strike, to the amazement of the telegraphers, ship pers and railroad circles in general. Removal of all telegraphic instru ments from the company's offices be gan Sunday. It is said this is the first time such a transposition o f the use of the wires has been made by a railroad to avert a strike. Among those who will leave the service of the Frisco are many who were to present the demands of the Order of Railroad Telegraphers at a conference with the receivers of the road. At noon 24 special trains, consisting o f an engine and caboose, went out on the Frisco lines with right o f way over all trains except passengers. The crew of each train removed the in struments from every station it passed and joined the telegraph wires at every mile. Thus 12,000 miles of railroad telegraph were converted into a telephone circuit. Many points on the system were without telegraphic communication temporarily. Telephone operators will replace the telegraphers. The threat ened strike will be forestalled by what practically amounts to a lockout, and it is said by some Frisco officials here that the conference between the tele graphers and the receivers may not be held at all. According to E. G. Levy, general ’ manager of the road, every five miles of the Frisco’s wires will be guarded by a man day and night. At all points where it is necessary to give orders, he said, a deputy United States marshal will be on duty to protect the telephone operator. Gatun Spillway Used to Regulate Lake Level Panama— Gatun spillway, which re gulates the levels o f Gatun lake, was opened Monday for the first tinffe since June 27. During the elapsed period the water had risen from 48.25 to 84.7 feet above sea level. While the max imum level the lake can attain is 87 feet, the water will not be allowed to go any higher at present because the diking of the low ridges forming the rim o f the lake basin has not been completed. It is planned to open one gate o f the spillway for an hour or so each day to keep the water at the existing level. This process is to be utilized to rid the lake of the vast masses of swamp veg etation, commonly known as floating islands.

Sam had worked on the farm for nine years, and until his master took to poultry farming he was quit* sat isfied with life. Hut this poultry business was a bit too much. He had to take the eggs as they were laid and write the date on them with an indelible pencil. And worse than that, he had also to write on the eggs the breed of the hen that laid them. So one day he marched up to the farmer. “ I'm about fed up,” he said, ”*nd I’m going to leave!” The farmer was astonished. “ Surely, Sam,” said he, “ you are not going to leave me after all these years?” “ Yes, but I am,” retorted Sam. “I’ve done every kind of rotten job on thla here farm, but I’d rather starve than go on being secretary of your old hens.”— Answers, London.

Until a little more than a century ago humanity had to rub along with out false teeth, of which nowadays one firm alone sells more than 12,000,- 000 a year. One of the first success ful makers was Glussepangelo Fonzl, an Italian dentist, who begnn practice In Paris In 1798, and, thanks to his skillful treatment of Luclen Bona parte, soon made his way. After years of experiment he discovered the sub stance from which artificial teeth are made and received the gold medal of the French Academy of Science. One of the earliest persons fitted with false teeth was the Empress of Russia. After Waterloo Fonzl emigrated to London and then to Madrid, where Ferdlnnnd VII rewarded him with a yearly pension of 1000 ducats for a set of false teeth.—London Echo.
