Tile Hchonl elerdnii held in Medford
yesterday on the (UCHtiun of liicrean-
, IliK the Hchool tax of tho city Inoro
jthan 6 per cent above that of 11124 and
.approving tho budifet, waa a record
j breaking one. Only lili votcn wero
jcii-st, and every ono of lliein wuh In
ifavor of the above.
True tlio tax payera aeliloin turn out
J heavily at uuch Hchool elections, uh tho
javcriiKC of such votem at tho polls in
yearn puxl hua been 4UU or lens, but
ycnterday'8 vote wuh a Hurprluint; ono
in the littlo IntercHt shown.
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.

According to passengers ami tnem
bent if the crew, there was no un
due excitement und the transfer uf all

cue ships wus accomplished iw
smoothly as circumstances would per

Tho fire started about 10:15 last
night while tho ship was off Atlantic
City. Tho night was clear and cold,
the sea calm. 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.

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

The big majority of people in this community are "sold

Just why is this true?
Because our institution is supremely safe, every dol
