BRYAN AND DAUGHTER, LUCILLE RETURN FROM TRIP Persons on Board Grain Carrier Say It Had Virtually Come to Stop and Was Run Down by Liner Big Hole In Side. Southampton. England, June 18. The North (Jernian Lloyd steamer Kaiser Wilhelm II., which left South aniytcn for New York with l.OoO pas sengers, lies at anchor off Netloy, three miles to the southeast, with big hole in its side amidship, caused by a collision with the Liverpool grain eteamer Incemore, bound from a Black sea port for Antwerp. Tho Incemore, a small-er craft than the German steamer, of 3,000 odd tons is in the dock here with its bows bad ly smashed. The collision occurred in the Eng lish channel, thirteen miles south of the Nab lightship, In a dense fog- Just how it occured and on which vessel lies the responsibility cannot be ascer tained at present. The officers cf the Kaiser Wilhelm II. have permitted uo communication to be held with anyone cn board and they themselves refuse to give out any information. Such scant details as have been ob tained came from the Incemore. That vessel, it is stated by those on board had virtually come to a stop because of t'v dansrer of continuing under way in. autli a thick fog, wnen suddenly there loomed up just ahead cf it the huge bulk of the Kaiser Wilhelm in the act of running them down. Unable to Avoid Collision. Both captains did their best to avert a collision, but the short distance sop arating the two vessels rendered the ii efforts ineffectual, and the Incemore struck the liner on the starboard sidi amidship. The force of the impact crumpled up its own bows and tore a big gap in the Kaiser Wilhelm's side It was the impression of those aboard the Incemore that the hole was entire ly above the water line. The two steamers stood by each other until it was ascertained that neither needed immediate assistance then both started slowly for South ampton. The forcpeak of the Incemore rapid ly filled with water, but the stout bulk head confined it there, and, although so much down by the bows that the propeller was half out of water, it man aged to crawl into port. There it found that the damage to the bows extended for a length of twelve feet and a width of ten feet. A loiter was received yesterday by I'.niiiilv Assessor Y. R. Urvan from his wile, who, in company with Miss Lucille, is at Kirkville. Missouri, where Miss lirvan con- ulle.l Iho specialists there in ro ard lo the injury from which she has been sulieriii'' for the nasi iireo years, ami which has reu lered one of her limbs quite weak. The report of the physi cian was certainly ple;isi;ir to Mr. Inyan and his family, as ho promises ilial Iho injury is per manently cured and thai in a liii time it will bo possible for hor to abandon the use of crutches and resume tho use of her limb. The news was certain ly joyful tidings to tho father ami frionds of Iho lady in Ibis city and I hey will be anxiously await inir the time when she can bo with Ihom nfrain. Tho TJrynn family will leave in a short lime for Colorado, w here I hoy will spend a few weeks resting in the mountains. WRECKED IN LOST HARBOR AH on Board Saved, but Cannery Ship and Cargo Lost. Sewaid. Alaska, June 18. Forty-five men of the crew of the cannery ship l'aramita. which was wrecked in Lost Harbor, arrived here on the steamer Dora and were transferred to the steamer Northwestern, which is taking them to Seattle. i no i-aranuta, wnicn was carrying 170 men and supplies and machinery to the plant of the Bristol Bay Pack ing company, was caught in a gale oft Bierka island, near Unimak Pass, and went on the ro'jks. The vessel was worked off the rocks, but was found tc he sinking and was beached in Lost Harbor. Tho vessel and cargo, valued at $. 000, are a total loss, but all aboard reached shor.-j safely.

Yellow lace is apt to become white if it is washed with soap and water. bo that if the owner of yellow lace wishes to keep it yellow she must be very careful of its cleansing. Cover it first with gasoline, placing it in a covered earthen crock. Shake it about in the gasoline, rubbing soiled spots between the hands. Then cov er the crock and leave it for five or six hours. Be sure that the lace Is quite submerged in the liquid. At the end of this time shake the lace, squeeze it and hang In the open air until quite dry- Then place it on a clean ironing board and dampen a little. Pull it Into shape with your fingers while it Is damp. If It be a lace collar or a wide piece baste it to a thick, damp cloth, stitching each scallop or figure. Then place a thin, damp cloth over it and press with a warm Iron. Drag Store Monies How to Remove Soots From Table Linen.
