IN DRY DOCK AT SPARROWS POINT MAN IN FLAMES LEAPS FROM DWELLING. Firmore Sailed For Cuba And Was 47 Days Out—Tropical Storm Encountered, Vessel Tossed Like Eg-g Shell And Crew Put To Work At Pumps.

Most of the men have left the vessel, but the few who are left say the last voyage of the Firmore will remain in their memory. They tell of a leaking vessel in a storm-tossed sea, of semi-starvation, of mutiny and finally of how the Firmore stuck her nose on a reef and remained there until part of her cargo was tossed overboard. Also before the Firmore returned to Baltimore she had another skipper in command of her and an entire new force of engine officers. On September 22 the Firmore sailed from Baltimore bound for .Daiquiri, Cuba, where she was to load a cargo of ore and then return instantly to Baltimore. The vessel was thought to be in good trim and as she steamed down the Chesapeake company officials thought that no more than two weeks would be required for the round trip. The trip took 47 days. First a tropical storm was encountered and the Firmore, a vessel of 11,000 tons, was tossed like an eggshell on the mountainous waves. Eigut days after she had sailed from Baltimore it was discovered that two feet six inches of water was in her holds. The crew was put to work pumping. For six days they pumped with the waves breaking over the decks of the vessed. They did not succeed in freeing the holds of water, but they did prevent the seas from making any headway Lindsets and the two remaining engineers. Capt. Oscar Grund and a new set of engine officers were sent from Baltimore to take charge of the ship. Matters had all been straightened out with the crew when the Firmore finally loaded cargo at Daiquiri and started for Baltimore. But as she skirted Fortune Isle, off the coast of Cuba, she stuck her nose in a reef. She was in bad shape then. Tropical storms razed around her and she was firmly stuck. Finally it was found necessary to dump large quantities of the ore overboard. After being aground for five days she was floated and proceeded to Baltmore. BLIND SOLDIERS FACE FAILURE IN CAMPAIGN. The drive of the United States Blind Veterans of the World War is one month old. On October 19 the veterans began their campaign for $1,000,000 with which to establish a home at Catonsville, this county. Total contributions to the fund amount to less than $23,000. It was after a statement of these facts that William T. Hemsley, treasurer general of the campaign,, expressed grave fears as to the success of the drive. Less than six weeks remain for the veterans to raise more than $125,000 if they are to obtain Beech-field, the proposed site of the home near Catonsville. Hemsley said: "The $150,000 which the vet-And the I erans have hoped to put into the site An unidentified negro is dying at Franklin Square Hospital following a fire in a vacant house at Washington boulevard and West Baltimore avenue. Thomas B. Brown of Hilltop, this county, was driving a bakery wagon near the house when he saw the negro jump from a second-story window, his clothes a mass of flames. Smoke was pouring from the window. Brown and Patrolman Huber extinguished the flammes on the negro's clothes. It is thought the negro was a tramp who was seeking shelter from the cold in the vacant house. He had started a fire on the second floor. 2500 TONS Galvanized Flat and Corrugated Sheets For Garages and Barns WM. A.

The Automotive Service Company As distributors in this territory for the Service Motors, Inc., Wabash, Ind., manufacturers of Service Trucks. Service Trucks are designed with a thorough understanding of truck-operating conditions. They are built to do the work you will require of them with the minimum of attention or care. They are designed for continuous service under the most exacting conditions. All the valuable features of truck design that our twelve years of specialization in truck-building have developed are embodied in the Service Trucks of today. Experimental construction is rigidly excluded until it is unquestionably perfected and proved. Service Trucks, while not the highest priced trucks made, are not sold at a low price. If they were, they could not be good, but they are positively the lowest price and cheapest truck in the end, by reason of their long life, comparatively light upkeep expense and reasonable price on repair parts, and their ability to give the greatest ton mileage for the leas< cost.

At Santiago Chief Engineer John Milley and First Assistant Engineer J. J. Sullivan were paid off and sent to a hospital. They had battled the seas valiantly and had collapsed from the strain. As the Firmore lay in Santiago the crew became dissatisfied. The food supplies of the vessel were practically exhausted and there seemed to be no effort to replenish them. So on October 22 the crew mutinied. They refused to turn to and no work could Capt. P. A. Lindsets make them do. Tne crew claimed there was not sufficient food aboard the vessel and what was aboard was not worth eating. A commission appointed by the American consul investigated their claims and found them true, it is said. In the meantime the officials of the Ore Steamship Company had heard of the troubles being experienced at Santiago. They instantly BLIND PREACHER TO CONDUCT CAMPAIGN. The famous blind preacher who conducted such a successful campaign in Chestnut Grove in October in coming to conduct a United Gospel Campaign in Ashland and Cockeysville. The Presbyterian and Methodist Episcopal congregations are uniting for this purpose. The Rev. Thomas Houston is a gifted and attractive singer and forceful preacher. He will begin his meetings in Ashland Presbyterian Church on Nov. 30 at 3 P. M. The first night service will be held in the Cockeysville Epworth M. E. Church. and equipment for the home must be collected by January 1 or the boys will lose $5000 which they have already put up for an option on Beechfleld. "And 1 am particularly afraid if they fail in their drive Congress will refuse to appropriatee the $350,000 it has promised for the construction of a school here. Congress is guided by public opinion, and if it notices the lack of interest on the part of the public in the blind veterans its reaction may prove disastrous to the boys. "We hope to go into each of the States separately later on and make an appeal. If each State gives $20,-000 we will get our million. But we have no machinery for an active, vigorous national campaign. We have depended entirely upon public sympathy. A successful termination of the drive seems very uncertain." ----------o---------- PIKESYILLE IS WIDE AWAKE, SAYS REPORT. Could You Use $4,000 ?

Duke, president of the Pikesville Community Association, just issued. Improvements within the last year include paving extensions, numbering of houses, better mail and trolley service and assignment of the town to fourth place under the metropolitan act for water and sewers. The report recommends that danger signals be placed at the east end of the bridge at Sudbrook Park over the Western Maryland Railroad. Two roads—Sudbrook avenue and Clarendon avenue—fork at the approach to the bridge. The Association is negotiating with the Suburban Club to eliminate backwater at Brightside avenue and Reisterstown road. This backwater resulted in a flood at Ralston last spring, the road being covered in some ' places by two feet of water. Other recommendations include a hospital at Pikesville, more fire plugs and sidewalks throughout the village, gas and water mains, street signs and sanitary collection of garbage. ----------o---------- "GOLDEN RULE" SUNDAY WILL BE OBSERVED DEC. 7. we do so feeling that our relations will be mutually helpful.
