STRANDED SHIP, LEFT DY CREW, UNSOLVED MYSTERY OF OCEAN
(By Associated Press) BEAUFORT, N. March 7.--A grim spectre stood unseen at the helm of the Bath-built schooner Carroll A. Dcering -when she cleared Rio de Janeiro, harbor last peeember. Tiding light, and winged out to set with Norfolk port to make, via the Barbadoes. The ship -was tough and trim from truck to keelson, sound throughout and no more than sweetesed to the -ways of the sea by her year off the building slocks. A stout New England f-hipmaster,' weathered to all the gales that blow trod her quarterdeck. Above him clean, sound canvass towered away to the five great masts that drove more than a thousand tons through the water on airs that no more than fanned the cheek. Crew Disappears.
Today- she is "The Ghostship of Diamond Shoals," her bones bleaching in ' the grave yard of the Atlantic," her master and crew vanished, no man knows where or why. She has added one more page to the sea's great book of mystery; paid tribute to the grim power of -the deep that on occasion blrikes through all that men and pelenee can do to shackle it, to claim its own. - . There is no record of the Deering's last voyage. She sailed full handed, thrilling with life and power. A month later she staggered blindly shoreward, alone by night, to ram her way to her last berth on the shoal. No hand tended her wheel ; no man stood to clack a sheet or spill the wind from her tortured canvas to ease her death struggle. She was a dead ship. I No living thing eaw her end.-.-,,.... . Sunset was drawing down the gloom of night on a Sunday evening when patrols from the life saving station looked their last for the day across the storm fretted shoals. The suges ran white over the lurking menace of the sands, headstoned with relics of many a stout craft. But there was no sail in sight. The wido reach of sea beyond was empty in the gathering gale. A Ship Without Life. In the morning, the Deering lay before them in the grip of the sand, her canvas set and slatting to ribbins in the wind," her boat gear hammering overside, --her boats and her people vanished '. , All day the life savers sought to reach her. Some of her crew might still be aboard. Time and again they were beaten back by wind and sea and it was a day later before it was known positively that she was an emnty ship, stripped of all life before she had plunged into ; the death trap. . " ." ' There was'no mark on, her to show why she had been abandoned. She was apparently undamaged: until the wind and sea and sand had their will nf her and slowly ripped here timber from timber, on the shoal. Undpr Hie
rtrivr of her Fail the ship was burled beyond the power of lugs to pull her nut. And in the weeks that have passed not a word has come to tell v. hat became of her crew. Nobody l as been washed up; no remnant of life boat of clothing come ashore. The battered hulk of the big vessel, forlorn with toppling masts and grimy, torn canvas, the hull filling with sand ihroueh opened seams, stands a ghostly monument to the uncon5uertd power of the sea.'""'' -SERIOUSNESS

Administration Bills. - The following are at least the greats er part of the bills in which the state administration has been supposed to have: special .interest and the status of each: ' - "Woman's working hour bill to regulate the working hours of women in industry killed in senate last Saturday. -. -. Money' to keep the schools going in the poorer counties until the sevencent levy money becomes available (this measure also mentioned under educational head). All of the resolutions for constitutional amendments, including the amendment authorizing the legislature

After all of the measures above
will be voted on at the next general
election or at a special election depends on whether a senate bill providing for a special election Sept. 6, gets through the house. The resolution for the state superintendent amendment as has been related, has passed only the senate. Tax Law Amendments. Amendments to the state tax law giving the state tax board appellate jurisdiction in the matter of local levies and bond issues. This bitl, was passed in the house and then by the senate but was amended by the senate, the principal amendments being one that would permit the raising or lowering of assessments on property by property sub-divisions and one that would make It possible for corporations or companies to keep their dividends a secret from the taxing officer. This bill is now in conference between the two houses. Educational bills: At the beginning of the session the governor indicated his special interest in all bills relating to the schools. Bill for an elementary school inspector (also mentioned under educational head) has passed both houses.

(Contirued from Paee One) the next two years for schools in poorer counties (a makeshift until the seven-cent levy becomes active) has passed both houses. In the specific appropriation bill a great many things were done for the state institutions, but those that stood out and were of special interest as the discussion progressed, were the appropriation of $125,000 for the Muncie normal school building (already mentioned under educational head); $175,000 for hospital and kitchen at state Soldiers' home at Lafayette, and money for a men's building at the Central Hospital for the Insane; also
What Housewives Are Anxious to Know Every housewife is anxious to accomplish two important things in her home. One is to improve her cooking no matter how good her cooking might be. The other is to be shown a way to cut the present high cost of living. Mrs. Brown, Miss Denehie and Miss Boyd at the Palladium Eree Cooking School demon

The Original Silver Plated Ware Will Be Displayed and Demonstrated at the PALLADIUM'S FREE COOKING SCHOOL In the Coliseum Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, March 9th, 10th and 11th
YOUREX May indeed be termed a new discovery in precious metals. It expresses the highest achievement in the art of silver plated ware. In "YOUREX" you get a silver plated. knife that will not rust or wear black, that can be sharpened the same as a steel knife without showing black around the edges, and guaranteed for all time. We guarantee that this silver plate will give absolute satisfaction and we agree to stand behind and replace every piece of goods bearing the "YOUREX" TRADE MARK that does not give satisfactory service in any household.
The silver plate on "Yourex" is not only equal to but better than that on' any other brand on the market. It is scientifically applied and last better than on steel, as the "Yourex" grips it better. Yourex has the tensile strength and flexibility of steel and restains its cutting edge but does not turn color like the baser metal. Of course, rough or long continued usage will scratch the silver off the cutting edge of a Yourex knife just as it does off any other good silver plated knife, but with Yourex you can not tell the difference without examining it very closely.
YOUREX IS KNOWN IN FOUR BEAUTIFUL AND ATTRACTIVE PATTERNS - The "Liberty," "Panama," "Victory' 'and "Mar jo Mell" ,
