Day Except 14 YEAR OLD BOY SOLE SURVIVOR OF OVERTURNED BOAT Watches Mother, Father and Brother Drown Before Rescue Arrives Detroit, July 6.--Rescued from the keel of an out-board motorboat to which he clung for nine hours, Edward Hausherr, 12 years old, told Capt. William Edgar, of the freighter Crescent City, how his father, mother, 5-year-old brother, uncle and cousin were drowned, one by one after their motorboat overturned in Lake Huron, during a heavy storm, Thursday after- noon: Edward is the son of Edward W. Hausherr, 42, of 2657 Hooker . avenue, Detroit, and his wife, Em- \ma. The others drowned were Lawrence, five; Edward Peterson, 50; Mrs. Hausherr's brother, and Shirley Bertram, five, a niece of |j Mr. and Mrs. Hausherr. For a time after his rescue Ed- wart was unable to tell of his ter- rible experience. He had been bat- tered by high waves thoroughly soaked, exposed to a cold off-shore wind and 'at least once thrown from his precarious place of safe- ty for so long that he was almost speechless. ly The Hausherrs went to -their 'summer home near Lexington,- 20. miles north of Port Huron, to spend the fourth of July. They took with them Peterson, who made: -his home with them, and Shirley, daughter of Harold Bert- ram, a brother-in-law of Mrs. Hau- sherr, At noon Hausherr took the whole party: for a motorboat ride. The little outboard motorboat was deep in the water when they chug- ged away from the dock, but the sufface near the shore was not rough. Hausherr headed toward |j the middle of the lake and ran info a heavy wind. Three miles from shore he attempted to turn the boat, when the wind sudden- ly. whirled down on them, twisted the boat about and turned it over. |. Peterson dived under the boat and disconnected the motor which was dragging the rear of the boat under water. For several hours Mrs. Hausherr held on and then down Not "iis To Sabi tack. the. cloak of .

Wdward said that several hours after the accident he saw a great ship. loom up, passing close to them. Both Peterson and Edward yelled, but apparently attracted no attention. The swells broke over the over- turned boat sweeping both surviv- ors off. Edward battled with the waves for 15 minutes before he re- gained his place of safety, but Pe- terson never returned. Then Ed- ward lost consciousness, awaking suddenly in pitch dark to see the lights of a ship bearing down on him." Gathering his last strength, he'yelled and yelled and members of the crew heard him.

Edgar and mem- bers of the crew rowed about the lake in a small boat until they located the calls and pulled Ed- ward off the motorboat just as he collapsed over the keel. He was revived in Capt.

As the universities close their doors for the summer thousanus of studentsa re finding themselves on the street, with scarcely a sou. That is not an unsual condition among university students the world over. Nine out of ten take the train home with empty pock- ets. But in Paris they are not taking the train, Of a hundred thousand men and women registered in the Universit- fes of France, 20,000 are in Paris. This does not include students of art and music. Between 7.000 and 8,000 are earning their own living, and paying their own tui- tion fees. They get the rent for their small rooms by methods zs precarious, colorful and monoton- ous and quixotic as the great city itself. Manya follower of th e classis music is an usher in a moving picture theatre. Many a medical student serves coffee in the morn- ings. Some never climb the "ston- ey way to Parnassus." They just become manager of a small movie house. Government gratuities are lim- ited. The 'university city" has a "French house" just as there is a "Canada House." In the French House 350 students are lodged, some gratuitously, but the majori- ty on a system of loans. But the loan method is distasteful to most students. Moreover, for the 350 occupied places there is a waiting list of 2,000. "Give work to the student in need," is the general appeal. vile newspaper suggests that during the holiday period students might .act as cicerones to tourists, and adds that 15,000 are coming to Paris from the United States. Piquant sketches by Parisian ar- tists depicting the typical student in his new function accompany the appeal. The Quartier Latin still has its romance but is no longer the Latin quarter of Trilby, or "vie de Bo- home." The student of todap is faced with the stern reality of high prices and low resources. He has to pay the rent. RAGLAN BRIEFS Raglan, July 4--Mr. and Mrs. B. Etherly and son Bert, Arthur Or- miston of Toronto, spent the holi- day at the latter's home, Mr. Irwin Ormiston's.

CO-OPERATIVE PLAN GROWS IN SCOTLAND Head of National Organiza- tion Tells of Progress Since 1868 Montreal, July o.--That the co- operative societies of Scotland have increased their capacity of buying and selling' - to the point where they have become the larg- est and most important organiza- tion of the kind, was the state- ment made this morning by Sir Robert Stewart of Glasgow, who is in Montreal en route to Winnipeg, where he will take part in the an- nual convention of Canadian co- operative societigs. Sir Robert Stewart, who is "president of the Scottish Federation of Co-opera- tive Societies, is accompanied by William Archibald, director, and James Sutherland, chief account- ant. The visitors are much inter- ested in Canada where the organ- ization buys a quanity and variety of products. "The Scottish co-operative soci- eties have developed marvelously in the last decade," Sir Robert, when seen at the Windsor Hotel, "and nobody can predict where their progress will be checked, be- cause Of their popular basis. "Catering to the needs of the working classes particularly, they have grown, since Their creation in 1868, into a strong organiza- tion of manufacturing wholesale and retail trade. In Scoltand only, these societies do a yearly trade of $90,000,000 and that figure is increasing constantly. "Joined with the English co-op- erative societies the Scottish Fed- eration does the largest tea busi- ness in the world. We have our own plantations in India, where we raise the best of teas, selling COLUMBUS BRIEFS Columbus, July 2--Mr. and Mrs. Robt.

Jackson, July 6.--Weorn by a grilling which had lasted since his arrest, Howard Shorney, 25, son of a Baptist minister, broke down and confessed the murder of his wife, Alberta, 26. He beat her to death with a furnace shaker, Shorney said, at the end of a stormy dom- estic quarrel. "I don't want to tell you any more about it," he sobbed, after his admissions. "Let me talk, first, to my parents, It'll be hard on them. Let me tell them, first. Then I'll go into court and admit I did it." : Shorney's parents, Rev. J). D. Jackson and Mrs. Jackson, former- ly of Jackson and now of Fairbury, Ill, arrived here yesterday after- noon, Chief of Police Charles Phelps 'announced hé would grant the young slayer"s request and dis- continue questioning until late.

FRENCH CABINET IN SPECIAL SESSION Confident Safeguard Clause Will Not Be Included in Debt Ratification Paris, July 6.--The French Cab- {inet was convoked unexpectedly in special session yesterday morning to consider varied attacks of the government perilously close to a ministerial crisis. The ministry decided to try to convince the finance commission ef the chamber it should reconsider its decision to inject a safeguard clause into its ratification of the debt accord with United States. it prepared also to fight the attack on Andre Tardieu, minister of tae interior. The cabinet discussed all phases of the situation presented by the finance . commission's unexpected action yesterday in voting to in- clude the safeguard reservations in ratification. It was agreed that al- though the situation had some serious aspects there was confi- dence parliament would be con- vinced of the uselessness of adopt- ing such a measure. There was no objection to Frenen sentiment being expressed simul- taneously, but separately in a re- solution. The attacks against M. Tardieu seemed today to have centred about the apparently trivial incident of an angry woman slapping the pre- fect of police during the recent veterans' parade to protest ratifi- cation. ARREST FOLLOWS HAMILTON HOLD-UP Toronto Man When Ques. tioned Has a Perfect Alibi Toronto, July 6.--Following yes- terday's unsuccessful attempt at bank robbery at Hamilton, the sec- ond of the week, one man was be- ing held by Toronto police lase night. He is William Toohey, Sea: ton street, former resident of Ham- ilton. He was detained by request of the Hamilton authorities aua held here on a charge of vagrancy. Local police are loath to believe that there is any real case against him, Toohey, tall and about 25 years of age, was arrested on Bain uve, at 7 o'clock by Detective-Sergeantt Waterhouse and Detectives Ewing and Mumberson. Counteracting reports from Ham- ilton that Toohey's picture had been identified by members of the bank staff there, the prisoner uau summoned to headquarters his em- ployer of one day, the proprietor of a small car-washing establishment on Victoria street. This man tua detectives that Toohey had asked 'for a position in the garage on Thursday evening and that he haa been given a job. All day yesters day, police were told by the pro- prietor, Toohey worked at cleaning automobiles and was out of sigmt of the employer for only 20 min- utes during the day. For that time he was at a neighboring res- taurant having lunch. Hamilton police it became known early yesterday, are looking for ane other man, a former acquaintance of Toohey, as the perpetrator of the robbery. To Toronto detectives last night Toohey said that this man had asked him early in the week to try to obtain a revolver, the gun to be used in the robbery of a bank. Toohey declared that he had scorned the proposal and, in- stead, had come to Toronto to seek a position, with the result that he started work yesterday morning in the Victoria street garage. The man now being sought, Hamilton police say, corresponds with the description of the bandit who yesterday afternoon walked into the Main and Locke streets branch of the Bank of Montreal and held up employes. The ban- dit was foiled when a clerk slam- med shut a steel door leading in- to the teller's cage.
