Officers Who Did Not Gome Back Leave Diamonds For Swgethearts. Paris, Dec. 27.—Two parcels as val- uable as they are small, are stowed ! away in a Y. M. C. A. safe at Ippe- court, France. They give the only clue to one of the unfinished ro- maaces of the war. HEach is ldd.roau. ed and ready for malling to a girl| back in America.

If we don't come back, send these things to the addresses on them.” They haven't come back—vet, but the “Y” man is not sure.

This One Sounds More Like a New England Fish Story. London, Dee. 27.—Now that censor- extraordinary stories of close shaves and unexpected happenings are being published. Hard to beat is one re- lated by the Liverpool Evening press. It tells how a torpedo from a U-boat passed under an intended vic- tim-—which at the psychological mo- ment was lifted beyond its reach by a big wave—and administered the quietus to another enemy submarine on the other side of the steamer. Here is the paper's account of it: The British steamer Algories, commanded by Captain Frederick Taylor, was off Bardsey Island and had a cargo of timber from Rosslare to Garston, There was a heavy sea on and the ship was pitching about. The first to see the first subma- rine was the gunner, who also spotted the track of a torpedo, whieh, if something like a miracle had not happened, would have struck them amidships. Nothing could be done in time to turn the ship clear of danger, but a heavy sea lifted high on its crest the steamer which was only drawing a few feet of water and then those ‘who had just been expecting to be torpedoed themselves saw a sec- ond U-boat, which was working in conjunction with the one on the other side of the steamer, struck by the torpedo. They heard a deafening explo- sion and saw a mountain of spray thrown up into the air. FORM JOINT COMMITTEE. Cuban Statesmen Summoned Home to Take Part in Reconciliation.
