After denying the deportation of - Christians, Rushdi Bey brought fresh Y charges against Great Britain. ` One d was that au Iraq band, after commit - h ting atrocities, had attacked a Turk - 1,• ish` post north of the Brussels line. , A second was that 50 persons of all n ages and sexes, escaping from the op - h pressive rule;, of the British forced oc- - cupation, had taken refuge ; in the h Turkish zone. A third charge was s that a band of 500, including Assyr- on tans, commanded by. British officers were preparing, to attack the Turkish t posts. e Col.

U.S. SUBMARINE RAMMED BY LINER Thirty-four Men Imprisoned With Small Hope of Rescue -Three of Crew Saved. New London, Conn., Sept. 27. - With deep seadivers tapping, tier steel skin and listening in vain for a . response from her closed compart- ments, the submarine S-51 lies 130 feet deep on the floor of the Atlantic to -night, a gaping hole in her side and her slender hull, it is feared, the cof- fin of thirty-four officers and men who have psrished in the United States Navy's greatest underwater disaster. The wreck of the S-51 was 'located fifteen miles due east of Block Island and the same distance south of New- port, R,I., where it sank at 1.0.24 o'clock Friday night, immediately after collision with the Savannah lin- er City of Rome, bound from Savan- nah to. Boston. Above the stricken submarine is anchored -a reseue fleet of other sub- mersible boats, destroyers, mine sweepers and the cruiser Camden, anxiously awaiting the arrival of sal- vage vessels rushing to the scene from New York and hoping the reports of the first divers to reach the- sunken ship'do not mean there is no life left aboard. Here, at the S -51's home port, head- quarters for the relief expedition have been established at the Navy Submar- ine base, and the same atmosphere of tense anxiety and prayerful hope pre- vans. Some relief was afforded by news from Boston that the three men of the submarine crew who were picked from the sea by the City of Rome had been landed safely in that city and none is seriously injured. Guelph Woman Celebrated 103rd Anniversary Guelph, Sept. 27. -Mrs: Mary Car- ruthers passed the one hundred. and third'mi:estone on life's voyage yester-' day. She, spent her birthday quietly and contentedly among her friends and . relatives at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Charles Robertson, with whom she resides. Among those whom she honored with a clasp of the hand and a cheery word of greeting was Mayor George A. Diew, who paid his respects and conveyed the congratulations of the city. Mrs. Carruthers came to Can- ada from Glasgow, Scotland, 68 years ago, in a sailing ship, and settled with her husband in Puseinch Township, where she lived for many years. Al- though a little hard of hearing she retains her other faculties to a re- markable 'degree. She was presented with a beautiful bouquet of flowers from the city, as well as from the Daughters of Scot- land and other organizations, Parishville Man Instantly Killed by Steam Roller Prescott, Sept. 27. -William 0.

Mar del Plata, Argentina, Sept. 27. -The Prince of Wales is homeward bound after a six weeks' visit to South America. H.M.S. Repulse, with the Prince aboard, sailed at 7.30 o'clock this morning. On the eve of his departure for England the Prince entertained Presi- dent De resi-d'entDe Alvear at a farewell banquet aboard the British warship. Several members of the Cabinet and high Government officials, as well as many others socially prominent, who had come from Buenos Aires to bid the Prince farewell, attended. The Re- pulse was lavishly illuminated and the function was a brilliant affair. The Prince spent the last three days of his visit to Argentina at the ranch of the noted Argentine sportsman, Miguel Martinez de Hoz,, who is now in Europe, but whose sons acted as hosts. Before embarking on the Re- pulse the Prince was the guest of honor at a reception given by the President and Madame de Alvear at their Summer residence here, Argen- tina's premier seaside resort. Old Roman Inscription Explains Nance "Britain" Paris, Sept. 27. -The origin of the names Britain and Brittany may be settled byea discovery recently made near Dijon, France, of a Roman in scription mentioning the name of the god "Britus," which is a legendary' Celtic divinity. Chief interest in the discovery lies in the fact that no cer- tain references to the god Britus had ever been discovered so far, although dim allusions come down from Roman times setting forth reports that this god was worshipped by the Britons of Western France and the British' Isles long before the Gauls and; CROSS -WORD PUZZLE ©THE INTERNATIONAL SYNDICATE.

SIR PRATAB SINGH WAS FRIEND' OF BRITAIN Loyal Maharajah May be Suc- ceeded by "Mr. A." of London Courts Fame. A despatch from London says: - News has reached London of the death in Kashmir' of Lieutenant --General Sir Pratab Singh Indar Mabindar Baha- dur, Maharajah of Kashmir and Jam- mu, GeO.S.I., G.C.I.E., G.B.E., and the probable successor to the throne of his nephew, Sir' Hari Singh, hero of the "Mr. A." case in the London courts last year. Sir Hari was black- mailed out of $500,000 by a gang, who used as a decoy Mrs. Robinson, pretty wife of a broken-down race track gambler. It is practically certain that Sir Hari will succeed to the throne. He is persona grata to the Government be India, which has the final decision, and it; was for this reason that every effort was made to conceal his identity when the scandal broke last year. The throne of Kahsmir is one of the wealthiest and most romantis re- gions in India. The country is known as the land of nightingales and roses, and the income of the ruler is more than $5,000,000 yearly. The territory is about 80,000 square miles, and the population 3,000,000. Pratab Singh was one of the best friends Britain had in India. When the Great War broke out, although 65 years of age, he insisted on the right to bring his own army to fight in France and to fight with it. He also insisted on paying the cost of his own troops, and refused reimburse- ment by the British. ASTRONOMERS MAP 100 MILLION STARS Gigantic Task of Surveying 'Heavens Started Forty Years Ago. A despatch from London says: - The great work of remapping the heavens begun nearly forty years ago, and involving the definite location of 100,000,000 stars, is in danger of breaking down. Eighteen of the world's largest observatories agreed to share the vast undertaking, but only two famous English observator- ies -Oxford and Greenwich -have completed the tasks allotted them. In the majority of cases progress has been slower than expected, and in others no attempt was made to fulfil the obligations' entered into in 1885. The Director of the Paris Observatory still hopes the four French observa- tories taking part will finish their work by 1935, but this is not at all certain. Copies of the Greenwich and Ox- ford photographic charis and. catee logues prepared at great cost have bean distributed throughout the world, More than 100,000,000 stars have been located, it was explained at the Royal Astronomical Society, and this num- b ber is being constantly added to, Officials of the society admitted it was a mistake ever to have begun s such a tremendous undertaking, for 1 long before other observatories have b Oshawa, Ont., Sept, 27. -Last night, completed their section of the heavens $ about 11.30, R.

Jaynes Cranswick Tory, fo portfolio m Working Seventy-five Years for One Dollar. much hes' been heard of the value of Canada's natural resources, but some- times an incident crops up which creates the iinparcessiorl that we do net recognize their value in doIlars.. and cents when their devedopmeut is be- ing considered. One incident of this nature recently carne to the attention of the Department of the Interior. It. concerned the sale .of a number of birch trees in a forested area, where the purchaser desired the wood of these trees only. No tree under ten inches was to be cut, while the diam- eters of those to be removed ranged from the minimum to twenty-eight Inches. These trees had been grow- ing for from fifty to one hundred years, they had struggled agaiust in- tense competition for light and mois- ture, they had seen their competitors droop and die from being cut off by their neighbors from sunlight, they had withstood the winds and storms of all seasons, and had reached a state of maturity where their wood content was covote3 by industry. When the time came for: their dis- posal, however, the struggles of these trees .vera forgotten. They went to the block and were sold as they stood for one dollar each. Seventy -live years growing and then to bow their majes- tic heads for one dollar each, was surely small compensation for a long lifetime of struggle. And yet, this may net be the only return to those age-old trees. As the . rough diamond, after the work of the master cutter has given it its best. ap- pearance, may repose at the throat of the society queen, so may the lordly birch, after preparation in the Cana: than workshop, reflect back the singe of the debutante when used in the con- struction of her majesty's dressing table -sometimes in its natural state, or when suitably colored, as beautiful mahogany.
