SERVED IN TWO ~ WARSDESTROYE Passenget Ship “St. Louis” Used as Auxiliary Naval Ship in Both World War and Spanish- American Conflict NEW YORK, (By Mail.)—The pas- Senger steamship St. Louis, with a rec- ord of hoving served with distinction thru two wars in which the United States was a beligerant, and in the in+ ‘terval carrying passengers across the Atlantic under the American flag, is now a blackened hull, the victim of a fire started by g painters torch. The big ship was being reconditioned at a ship yard for service after her second honorable discharge from the “colors"" when the acident took place. Her owners, the American Line, say she can be repaired, but it will mean prac- ‘tically rebuilding her and it is a task of many months. The St. Louis, was christened by Mrs. Grover Cleveland. ‘Her construction and launching was an epoch in Ameri- can shipbuilding in that she was the first “ocean greyhound” to be built in this country. She made her first voy- age in June of 1895. Under a contract with the American government she was entrusted with the fast mail to England and Europe. y Under command of Captain W. Gooa- rich, U. S.N., she was equipped with heavy guns as an auxiliary cruiser in the Spanish-American war. Her first adventure of note was when she was ordered to cut the cable between San- ‘tiago de Cuba and Kingston, Jamacia. Running up until she was under the di rect fire of the guns of Morro Castle, American gunners sent back shot for shot and succeeded in silencing all but the motar batteries of the fortification. while sailors were fishing out and cut ‘ting the cable line. th | IVE NE [BARRICADES EREGTED BY RANCHER TO SAVE CROPS FROM DAMAGE BY MOOSE (Special to The Tribune.)

BEST Packard Official Says Fads and Yearly Changes Are Unnecessary “A high grade motor car is designed to give high grade transportation, not to answer the demands of some pass- ing fad,” says H. H. Hills, vice-presi- dent of distribution of the Packard Motor Car company.. “Whims have as little place in the body design of such cars as any other form of bad taste. “Imagine the Pullman’ company, which is in the business of providing first class transportation, announcing new models in sleeping cars each year, trying to throw .the previous models inte. discard. The ridiculousness of such a thing is apparent. And yet the public have only recently begun to ques- tion the good judgment of automobile miunutacturers who are doing. exactly that. “It was not so long ago that passen- ger cars were called ‘pleasure cars,’ and since that time the automobile indus- try has seen a. world of change. Per- haps that change may best be described by saying that there are fewer people ‘spending money’ on motor cars now— they are investing money, and doing it in a volume never before equalled in the history of the industry. This means that the automobile is recognized as an immense factor in thé world’s scheme of transportation, and that standards of excellence have been set. Year by year these standards will become higher Improvements ‘and ‘refinements will cer: tainly. be made, but as far as high rade motor cars are concerned the day of sweeping chahges has gone, The thotor car that gives first class trans: hortation today will be giving, first-class trdusportation five years trom todaly; be- enuge it’is fundamentally right in} de- sign, mechanically ‘and artistically.” = nt | Inithe Day’s Ni | The Countess 6f Waryick, who has been chosen as ja prospective candidate for parliament by the ‘British’ Labor party, has long been know as-one of ‘the most beautiful women of Engiish society, and also one.of the most vor- satile.
