TIiIh la due to the fact that uhlla tho budget and increase had been ex ploited beforo various civic bodies for a week or ho past, and Jlio tentative budget had been advertised several linifiH in tll Mall Tribune, together with notices of tho election, tho vast majority of tax payers apparently for got all about tho date of election. Vestorday's election fixes the school lax. levy for next year at about 211 mills, whereas last year's tax was 20.2 mils. Tho total operating expense of the schools next year will bo about ,93!l.ooo, wllh regular recelpls about $70.iiihi, which makes $108, 000 to bo raised by taxation. This is an increaso over last year's operating oxpensos by about $70,000. The most of this increased cxpenso is duo to the building of tho new high school; the fact that 10 now teachers will be employed next your, that tho present high school will be operated as a Junior high school, and tho pay ment on bonds and interest, nnd old warrants coming duo next year. IXCl.E SUI'I'OKTS STOItY (Continued from page 1.) Subsequent to Foley's visit, ho con tinued. "Foley and the secretary of the navy seized upon the first oppor tunity they could to Impeach Mrs. Lanmlownc'g testimony before this court." . The witness said they had "dug up" Coimiinndor Iansilowne's poHthuinmiK article in the Saturday Evening I'ost for. that purpose and that Mrs. I.ans downo's action In telling about the eolehrated Htutemont prepared for her by .Kolcy was in "lotnllntloii." Hour Admiral Hllury I". .tones, presi dent of the court, demanded of Dr. Mason If lie had any facts or wit iioshob to 8iipnort his suggestion that I'nlcy was sent to Mrs. Lansdowno by Hocretnry Wilbur. "No fucts other than what 1 have Klvuji," Dr. Mason replied. ''Any witnesses?" "None." Dr. Muson's wlfo, Agnes Kennedy Mason, corroborated what her hiiHliiind hud said concerning tho Interview be tween Foley und Mis. Lansilowne. Asked If she thought there was any thing Improper In Foley's call, Mrs. Mason said: '.'Yes, I thought It very queer that the Judge ndvocato should cull: I thought the manner In which hn tried to ImproHB her that she had to toll tho truth and nothing hut the truth was most Insinuating. Also I thought his Injunction to her not to nay this was n political flight was significant." Mrs. Mason said thoy was an argu ment between Foley and Mrs. I.iins (lowne as to whothnr tho Shenandoah flight was a political ono. "Hho said It was a political flight," the wltnoSR mild. "Ho replied: 'Mrs. Lansdownn, you must not say that whh a slitleal night.' " Mrs. Mason was Insistent Hint Folny had sought to sway Mrs. Uius dnwno'H testimony on the point of u political flight. Mr. Foley Testifies. Mrs. Foley, tho wlfo of Captain Folny, in giving hnr account of tho Interview, quoted Mrs. l.niisdowno ns saying: "I feel rather foolish In appearing hernuso overything I Intended to say lias been put In tho court record." Mrs. I.nnsdownc, she said, seemed eager to havo aid anil advice. Foley told Mrs. hnnsdnwne at the outset, Mrs. Foley said, that the court was composed of five men who did not want to embarrass or hnrrass her, but to "make it easy" for her. Mrs. ljinmlowne did protest velicni willy that this was a polltlral flight, Min Foley said.

Tho blaze started in the aft hole anil was instantly fought hy momherH of tho crew. About 11 p. m. some of the passengers noticed smoke and their anxious inquiries brought assurance from Captain Dovereaux and his staff that thero was no dan- However, tho flames continued to spread and tho smoko became more noticeable. Many of tho passengers left their cabins. At 11:45. according to some of the passengers, tho vessel's whlstlo was blown and all hands were advised to come on deck. All wero reassured there was no serious dan ger. Previously, at 11:18 Captain Dovereaux sent out an K. O. K. mes sage. There was immediate response ind he found that tho nearest ship to him was 20 miles away and tho next 40 miles. Hy this time tho Tenapo wns abreast of Cape May and Captain Dovereaux decided he could make tho Delaware break water on the Delaware sjdo of tho hay. The ship wns met by the steam pilot boat Philadelphia, the coast ffUHi'l eulter KIckapoo and coast guard boats from Cold Spring harbor. New Jersey and I-ewls. Captain Dev ereaux -ailed for a pilot and one wns taken aboard from the Philadelphia, name II 11 1-St- Ollt. The T-enapo with little fire showing but with great volumes of smoke pouring from her hold, anchored two miles off the Delaware shore. Shortly after she hove too. the flames burst out nnew. sweeping the ship from stem to stern. The rev enue cutter KIckapoo. which follow ed the Tenape into tho breakwater, a coast, guard patrol boat from the Lowes station, and several small craft which had trailed the burning vessel for several miles, immediately dash ed for her sides. With a strong wind whipplnir the flames over the liner's stern, passen gers could Oie discerned from shore dropping over the sides and sliding down ropes into the water. The crew of a pltot sailboat, the only craft able to roach the dock beforo davlight. told of a heroic battle amid the flames on the I-enape's deck when the rescue craft came alongside. Tho crew swarmed over the Clyde liner's smok ing rails, fought their way to passen gers who had been cut off In tho .in terior of the ship and il ragged them to the sides. Lines were attached to them and thev were ordered to jump. From shore they could he discerned dangling over the water as the life boats; nnd other craft ran up under the Lcnape's blazing 'stern to pick the tiiup. Painful Rheumatic Swellings Disappear liscovrrer Tells Orugglsl Not to Take a Cent of Anyone's .Money I'iiIonh Allciirhu Completely Hanislics All ItheumaUc Pains und Twinge. James II. Allen, of 20 Forbes St., Rochester. N. Y suffered for years with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. He finally decided, after years of ceaseless study, that no one can he free from rheumatism until the ac cumulated Impurities, commonly called .uric add deposit's, were dis solved In the joints and muscles nnd expelled from the body. With this Idea In mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and finally compounded n prescription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheuma tism from his system. He freely gave his discovery, which hc called AIJ,KNKHt to others who took it, with what might be called marvelous success. After years of urging he decided to let sufferers everywhere know about his discovery through the newspapers, lie has therefore instructed Heath's Drug Store and druggists everywhere to dispense AIXKNUIIU with the under standing that If the first pint bottle does imt show the way to oo nipt etc recovery he will gladly return your iii'itipv wtihmtt cntnmont. ndv. The big majority of people in this community are "sold on," have implicite faith in our financial service. Just why is this true? Because our institution is supremely safe, every dol lar being backed by an excess security in the form of first mortgages on real estate, homes principally.
