The Government expenditure on coloniâ€" ration and byâ€"law roads constructâ€" ed under the supervision of the deâ€" partment will reach close to $570,â€" 000, or $40,000 above that of last year. The feature of the season‘s wortk, however, has been the large amount of work undertaken by the townships themselves under the byâ€" law system. The 116 byâ€"laws under which work was started in the m uwl q2 C 22 PET m SCY 0P PACHCET, "In the beginning," eaid Capt. Inch, "I want to say that the Carmania did the yery best that she could. I have nothlnr but praise and gratitude for those galâ€" lant seamen who eteamed fullâ€"speed to the aesistance of my poor ship, and this inâ€" eludes Capt. Barr and the Carmania. Nobody Brutal on Voiturno. "Likewise there is abeolutely no truth in any story which might create the imâ€" preéesion that anybody was brutal during the frightful, trying hours between the discovery of the fire and arrival of the reecuing ships. I never used a revolver Or any other weapon to cower the passenâ€" gere into discipline neceegar{ in such emergencies. As a matter of fact my pisâ€" tol was burned up in the wreckage of the bridge. 1 might add that none of m‘ ofâ€" ficers or any of the seamen used any kind of weapons in the maintenance of order among the paseengers. . h "The loss of our lifeboats immediately following the discovery of the fire is, of course, the saddest chapter in the awful story. It was my first duty to order those boats provisioned and made ready for launching, and the disaster that followed the drownn,r or the attempt to drop them into that frightful eea Pndicam better than any words of mine the kind of weaâ€" ther the Volturno faced that day. How Lifeboats Fared. "The first boat to be launched wae in command of Chief Officer Miller. It struck the water and immediately seas engulfed it and it was capsized and all in it unâ€" doubtedly lost. ‘The second boat, which was number six, was lowered under comâ€" mand of poor Langsell, the fourth ofâ€" feer. In it were about forty people. The boat got away from the ehip and was not seen again. The third boat, commanded by Boatewain Sunderetrohm, wae lowered and had about fifty of the steerage pas sengers in it. As it struck the water the tossing Volturno made a deep dip forward and a giant sea ewept the boat under the liner‘s «tern; when she settled back she sat upon the little craft, crashed it like awn eggsholl and everybody in it was lost except the boatewain, who dived out, and, coming up, caught hold of the tackle that was dangling from the ship‘s stern and was pulled back on board.

But we did not launch .? more boats, for Bennington, the frst Marconi operatâ€" or, came to me and said the Carmania had caught our signals and wu.le:goodinl to our mid at a nineteenâ€"knot speed. _ "It was 6.50 o‘clock in the morning when the fire was first discovered. I wase in my cabin getting m little cleep when Miller, the chief officer, came uieer in and, com» ing up to my bunk to?d me the ship was afame in hatch No. i. We were then proceeding through heavy seas at a sp¢¢d of swbout eight knots, in a head sea and before the wind. I told Miller to give the order to slow down and then to %;He“! order the crew to the fire statlions, but to keep the knowledge from the passengers until we could aecertain just how serious the situation was. A * d "‘But the passengers knew it already.‘ Miller arrived and I told him to order them all to the after deck. At 655 a.m. Miller came to me and said the Volturno was aflame forward and I hurried out on deck. The picture was a terrible one.P;et. all was quiet among the passengere. Forâ€" ward and whaft the forecastle the fames formed a solid wall of fire forty or more feet high and I eaw that the lifeâ€"rafts and the deckâ€"fittings were starting to blaze. Saw Moen Burning to Death. "While I was looking over the ship and was near the forecastle, Quartermaster Oller came up out of the forecastle. His face was badly burned, and as he stagâ€" gered towards me I caught him in my arms and aeked him where he had been. He anewered, ‘I am just out of the foreâ€" castle, and there are four men ‘buraing to death in there. It was all too true. ‘The poor fellows were all seamen, and good ones, and died before they knew what the matter was."

But, while these lands suffer worst, no part of Europe is wholl{ exempt. Fifteen thousand men are Aiâ€" ready out of work in Berlin, and the au thorities of that city are expecting a re petition of the bread riots of last year. Martial law prevails over large districts of Austria and Russia. Workers in Italy are striking for & living wage, and evon in prosperous France and Holland the pinch is felt. The Power of Publicity. Advertising not only pays, but ite value as news is coming to@be more and more appreciated. There is not an enterprising corporation or shrewd business firm that is not now informing the public through the medium of advertisements what kind of new businees each is engaged in and tho Government, cither independâ€" ently or through the new Highways Commission, secure quarries and gravel pits to supply the municiâ€" palities with material at reasonable prices. According to W. Bennett, direcâ€" tor of colonization, the great handiâ€" cap the townships are faced with is the high cost of material, gravel and crushed stone, and this has given rise to the suggestion that Cs:gtain Inch, in the course of his stoty of the disaster, eaid: "We were back at No. 1 hatch working for all we were worth to check the fire when the second officer came running up and told me that the Carmania was coming up. The Cunarder was coming at a great clip, and she lookâ€" ed like a great ball of foam as she cut her way through the water, but we did not have time to stop and look then and kept on with the Kre. The Carmania steamed to the windward and dro?'ped & boat. Reddon, the eecond Marconi opetrâ€" ator, was bringing me Capt.

The judge was not hit, but one apple struck a juryman in the face. The women cried ‘"Shame," and sang the ‘‘Marseillaise.‘"‘ spring indicated an eÂ¥penditure of roughly $175,000, with the Governâ€" ment contributing half. As a matâ€" ter of fact, the townships have spent considerably more than half this sum. % «hip was im&oslble for the boat that the Carâ€" mania had launched to reach us. The boat crew worked like mad, but they could do nothing in that sea, and after a time they managed to get back to their Edward Land and make temperature and magnetic observations, and adds, "I also want to explore land which no Englishâ€" man has trod." The latter is his real reason for setting out on this perilous journey. Scientific research is but an in: cident of the undertaking. The lure of the unknown has gripped him, as it gripâ€" ped Columbus, as it gripped Livingstone and Peary and Seott and Amundeen and countless others who have set out to g9 where man never was before, and as it will grip othere until there is no spot 0n the globe untrod by man. + Effects of the Balkan War.

"At sixtyâ€"eight years of age I can testify that I am never troubled with coughs or colds," writes J. E. Pilgrim, of Kingston. "They used to be the bain of my life, and that was before I used Catarrhozone, which was reâ€" commended to me by C. L. Prouse, druggist. To use Catarrhozone is just like being in an immense pine woods. The balsamic vapor of Catarrhozone is like a tonic, it is so stimulating to the breathing organs, so soothing to sore spots, so full of power to drive out colds and congestion. I will alâ€" ways use and recommend Catarrhâ€" ozone as a preventive and cure for coughs, colds, bronchitis, throat irritaâ€" tion and catarrh. (Signed) "J. F. PILGRIM."
