ers yesterday afternoon at the Fon
tenelle, outlined briefly the transpor
tation difficulties encountered these
days at the factories.
"Only last week several of our east
ern dealers journeyed to Racine and
we called in a group of railroad of
ficials and tried to prevail upon them
to put a special train through for us,
hut could not make it. We are get
ting the cars to the western dealers,
and in this respect the west is for
tunate," stated Mr. Tainsh.
R W. Pelton. assistant sales man
ager, gave an interesting talk on the
way in which a large concern spends
SI. (100.000 in one vear for a national
; advertising campaign. He presented
a series of motion pictures, following
in real life the pictures of himself as
shown upon a screen.
J. T. Sewart, 2d, general western
sales manager (or the Mitchell people,
presided at the , function, which in
cluded a dinner. He told of inspira
tion he received by making trips to
the factory, where a bunch ot rega
iar fellows always greeted the dealer.
George W. Hippie, general mer
chandising counsel, was taken ill at
L)es Moines last week and upon ad-
nee of a physician returned to Racine
for a rest He was expected here
this week. J. W. Parish spoke from
the standpoint of a Mitchell owner
and driver.
Announcement was made that the
Mitchell factory at Racine wilt make
..'5,000 cars this year and at this time
, the output is 100 per day.

Puzzle: Who Sold First Automobile?
Snapped Them Right Up at Show
When a fellow needs a friend" is
the automobile editor's feeling on the
opening day of the show when the
mad rush to make the first sale is on
and four-thirds of the dealers honestly
think the honor belongs to them.
It's a great event but Lord help the
umpire, and thank heaven there are no
pop bottles or bricks in tne grana
stand. After a great deal of deliberation
and a sincere effort to determine what
the rules of the game are, when the
show officiallly opened and what goes
to make a bona hde H-karat nrst
sale the automobile editor, as usual,
must confess that its too deep for
him and resort to stating the claims
in the order given.
In this connection, gentle readers,
bear in mind that no definite rules
have been made by the show mana
ger, C. G. Powell, which would dis
qualify any of the contestants. This
Deing tne case eacn is a winner, ac
cording to his own rules. But give
them all credit for the cd 0,(1
American spirit. They all tried and
not a one will admit defeat. "A man
is never licked until he admits it him
self."

sea while the ship was making sev
enteen knots. The first torpedo
struck on the starboard abaft the en
gine room. The engines stopped and
the ship turned, listing to starboard.
Most of the boats were launched
from the starboard side.
iwentv minutes later, after most
of the boats were clear, a second
torpedo was fired, striking the en
vines on the nort side. The ship
sank forty-five minutes after the fir-
mo- nf th first mruedo.
1 he ship waa armeu wiin two i.i

kept in continual action until the last
moment, Six rockets also were sent

"Trie submarine was not seen from
the Laconia, but after the second
torpedo had been fired and the boats
launched a submarine appeared on the
surface, came alongside the boat con
taining the second officer and asked

exposure in the cold water.
"The boats after leaving the Lacrj.
nU had to scatter rather widely in
order to avoid the danger of colli

were running. Flares were kept alight

hours of anxious waiting for the pa
trol to arrive. The patrol began pick.

morning, but had not finished until
after daybreak.

Four Passengers Injured.
Queenstown, Feb 27. Correct re
turns on those missing from the
sunken Cunarder Laconia are not yet
obtainable, although the Cunard staff
is working on the list of crew and
passengers, rour passengers are
among those sent to hospitals. Their
injuries are slight. Among the four
is Dr. Hawke, a resident ot ban fran
cisco, who said he was playing a game
of bridge in the snip's surgeon
room, when he heard an awful crash
and guessed that the ship had been
attacked by a submarine. He said
that the first torpedo struck the liner
aft on the starboard side and every
one made for the life preservers. The
passengers had previously been ill'
1
structed in boat drill and got into the
boats without panic. Dr. Hawke said
that all behaved well and that disci
pline was truly good.
ne conimuea:
"The submarine returned after we
had been in the lifeboats and fired
another torpedo, which put out the
lights and was followed by a terrmc
explosion, and the ship must nave
sunk soon after. The second torpedo,
mind yoU, was fired although the
lifeboats were close to the vessel, and
the crew of the submarine could not
have failed to see us, as it was moon
light. It was about 9:30 p. m on
Sunday when we took to the beats
and about 3 o'clock on the following
morning when we were picked up."
Dr. Hawke gave tne nignesi praise
t- the behavior ot tne women ana
children and said that the captain
and crew were marvelous.
It appears that two boats reached
Bantry with twenty-two people, eight
of the occupants having died from
exposure. Among those saved ws
the singer, Miss Mitzie Siklosi, of
Paris.
The bodies of the eight persons
who died were consigned to the dei:p.

Careless Use of Soap '
Spoils the Hair
Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best Most soaps ana prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsifted cocoanut oil (which
is pure ana greaseiessj, ana is acucr
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in. It makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, which rinses
out easily, removing every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil.
The hair dries quickly and evenly,
and it leaves the scalp soft, and the
hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous,
fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsifted cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
ber of the family for months. Adv.

WATER BOARD BILL
DIES ING0MH1TTEE
Craddock's Measure to Turn
Plant Over to City Com
mission of Omaha Fails.
BITTER WORDS SPOKEN
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, Feb. 27. (Special Tele
gram.) By a vote of 6 to 4, the cities
and towns committee of the house in
definitely postponed H. R. 534 by
Craddock, a bill to turn over the man
agement of the Metropolitan Water
board of Omaha to he city commis
sion and eliminate the present board
of directors, Beal, Keegan, Segelke
and Shannon voting no and Rich
mond,, Anderson, Hunt, LaBounty,
Keneker and stuhr yes.
For a time the hearing took on the
aspect of a hostile battle of words, be
tween Shannon, a member of the com
mittee and Richmond, chairman of the
committee, in which each accused the
other of trying to run things to suit
himself.
Who if Boss?
"You can't run this committee if
you are chairman," shouted Shannon
when Richmond showed signs of
wanting to adjourn the meeting.
1 II run it as mucn as l want to
without your assistance, retorted
Richmond.
I want you to understand that 1 11
run part of it anyhow," shouted back
Shannon. J
lust then some one in the crowd
made the remark that Shannon had
the true Irish fight m him, and then
ReDresentative Terry Howard got
sore and said that "any mon who said
that Shannon was Irish again, would
get a swat on the nose," and then in
the excitement some one proposed an
executive session to vote on the bill
and the trouble was over.
Craddock Defends.
Most of the argument for the bill

was made by Representative Crad
dock, who charged that Manager
Howell of the water board, who was
present, had not run things as they
should be and that his charges for
water were not justified. Mr. Howell
went into the situation at some length,
but was frequently interrupted by
Craddock and Shannon, who shot
questions at him which he answered,
but not always satisfactorily to either
of the gentlemen. Judge Dick Hunter
closed the argument in favor of the
bill. .
