CREWS WD J0 WORK HARD Men Had to Be Actors •• Well a* Ballore to Get Their Prey—Busineea Wae to Lure German Submarine Prom Depths to Position Where It Could Be Destroyed by Quna Con cealed on Mystery Ship. The "Q" boat, Britain's great "Hush Hush," or mystery ship, that was re sponsible for the sinking of more Ger man submarines than any other device ever attempted, has Just made a de mure appearance in the London docks. For the modest fee of 12 cents the British public Is allowed to carry oat a self-conducted tour of Inspection of her sinister closed hatches and her shadowed decks, where cunningly con cealed, great guns has their noses be hind innocent-looking deck houses, periscopes are to be found concealed In chimney cowls, and whole, decks fall away at the touch of a magic but ! ton. i London's "Q" boat Is one of the ac tual band of hlood brothers which, i rolled and reeled around the storm 1 cones, wallowing fiendishly down the traffic lanes,- looking, asking and pray ing for trouble of the first water; trouble with a shining horror of a tln 3sh as the beginning and the end of It. The business of a mystery ship Is well known. It la to lure a German submarine from the depths to a posi tion at which it may be destroyed by {una or other engines concealed in the (hip. The events recounted to ns by the mystery ship commander happened tome time ago, bat not till now has die silence been broken. First, the mystery commander talk id abont his early days when the mys :ery service was In Its Infancy, two >r three years ago, and of hopes de terred and disappointments. One day, Hunting In the Irish sea, he saw a fat )ld tramp torpedoed without the sub narine appearing, and soon afterward 1e saw a three-masted coaster go lown—but still no lack. The coaster, However, gave him an inspiration. - Oats His Big Idea. "If I could get a little ship like iat," be thought. "I might get my »lrds all right." So he bunted through die docks of the kingdom and at last le picked ap a vessel of the right size tnd look and pat Into her what was teceeaary, and after that had doubts vhether she would float. But at last le began his cruise. "I was near the Lizard In an awful lou'west gale when I got to kfiow that l sub was near by, a torpedo passing right under the engine room, too deep :o touch the ship." "This," as the ;ommander said, "was not In the song >ook. We didn't see the sub and kept >n with the men at action stations, with a good lookout, until three I'clock, when we caught sight of him Following and pretended not to have leen him—his oil was awful —when he was on the beam 3,000 yards away, tnd we could see the phosphorescent ivash of his propeller. He went down ind I Jammed the helm hard and Jbst nlssed the torpedo, which came as ex jected. It was three feet ahead.". The next Incident was off the French ;oast near the Channel Islands, when le heard reports that a submarine was about and saw two French air planes dropping bombs. This was con sidered a nuisance, for anything which :nterferes with a mystery ship being torpedoed, and preventing it doing its work after that, Is not liked in the ipeclal service. In this special service. It must be lOted, the ship has first of all to be torpedoed, and the officers and men yke their chances of death and wounds before they can break their illence or strike a blow. The torpedo hit the ship at the bulkhead just at ;he bridge. The commander was blown op and the forward gun dismounted and fell on one of the gunners.. A huge column of water went Into the tlr, and coming down in bulk on the ship did a lot of damage. Fortunate ly no one was killed, bnt two other officers were badly Injured. Show Good Acting. TOo wounded were put In safe places In the 'tween decks and the "abandon ship" party ordered Into the boat This Is a curious act In the tragl-comedy of the mystery ship. The crew la so like an ordinary tramp'* crew that Its own brothers could not tell the difference. Some acting takes place as they rush, panic stricken, to the boat It Is called the "movie act." The boat bucketed away; the ship lay silent, the wounded uncomplaining In their blood, the rest oC tj»e crew hid den In their recesses. If the ship sank ' j quickly there was no chance for any ! of them. The submarine came to the I surface and lay off three-quarters of a mile ahead watching her sink. She was golag down very slowly. The life boats palled away for a distance, then lay to. Would the second act ever come? Then followed 50 minutes of inconceivable strain, the commander t lying flat, gazing through his slit, watching the sea within bis angle of vision. He could not see the subma ' do* or what she was doing. 8t» - might be flriug another torpedo which l would take him and bia part of the crew into eternity. "It waa a bit of a strain," be said. "I rather wanted to know what he waa np to." At last, slowly, slowly, they bad a sight of her moving Into the line of vision. I had a look from an other allt. and the gun layer bad a look, bat it waa too chancy to open out In this Job yoa most get your bird dead or there la big trouble. At last he waa right He suapectsd aotfc- ing. r wTOGtwi cu DtraniGrgore; bat at any moment he might go down. Ha didn't We hoisted the colors and let go when he waa 860 yards away in a position, so that we could get both guns on him almost immediately. The first shot got him aft the conning tow er. The second shifted the conning tower bodily over the side, blew the commander up Iq the air. The se> ond gun came In and bluzed away on the hull. We got 17 ahots Into him. The submarlno seemed to shake hlm and then settled down by the stern; his bow coming out of the water. The last shots pat him down altogeth er." Crew Baw the Bhow. The "abandon ship" party, the spec tators of the drama, then retnmed. The wounded, who had been htaxledly ' bandaged, got further attention, and everything possible was done to save the ship. The man held down under the dismounted gun had been told that be could not be released for a time. All he had said was "All right, air." ' The whole time of the affair waa five bours, and the time from the torpedo ing of the ship till the submarine went down was 50 minutes. ''The crew was marvelous," the commander said, "as It «lay in that Intolerable 50 minutes." Officers and crew were violently sick from the gases of the torpedo explosion on the small vessel. The ship's books went overboard In the explosion, and one of the crew Jumped over the side and res cued them, knowing their value to the Hermans if they had fallen Into their | bands. Meanwhile the collier was settling i down. Two trawlers had come up, hav ing heard the firing, and the wounded were transferred. The commander carried on till they got In sight of land, ' with the ship rapidly filling. Ten miles iff land the' ship was awash to the bridge; the commander and his first of- Hccr remained on board till five mln . tes before she sank. The whole ship's company arrived safely In England. The submarine and Its crew had gone to the bottom. The commander received V. O. and blgh decorations went to officers and nen.

BUY WAR HAVING BTAMPB GRAHAM, N. o.a THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 13, 1910 EXPRESS HEIHODS > 10 GEJEFMED A "BETTER SERVICE CAMPAIGN" INAUGURATED BY 136,000 EM PLOYEE* OF COMPANY. STUPENDOUS DRIVE NOW ON Rulea Now Exlatlng, Relating to Bon ing and Peeking of Shipments to Be Rigidly Enforced. Charlotte, N. C.—Plans of a moel comprehensive nature to bring abooj conditions which will make possible a marked Improvement in the expreas ' service throughout the country, hart been announced by Mr. W. 8. Hall, Charlotte representatlre of the Amer ican Railway Express Company. A "Better Berries Campaign" will be undertaken by the 136,000 men and women employed in the express busi ness, tor the purpoee of ratsng the standards of packing, wrapping and marking shipments. The drlre started on February 10, in erery city and town In the coun of education and appeal among ex press employes simultaneously with a widespread effort to secure the co operation of the shipping public along the same lines. No new packing or marking rules hare been adopted for the campaign, but express drlrers and recefrlng clerks will be Instructed hereafter to Insist, flrmly but court eously, that the rales already in force be strictly adhered to. The chief pugpoee of the "Better Service Campaign" is to check, once for all, the waste of time, effort and money that result from lost or dam aged shipments. It Is a souree of die satisfaction and annoyance to both shippers and the carrier and tends to Impair the express serrice. It Is ex pected that all who ship by express, and 300,000,000 s shipments are annual ly traveling that way, will be keenly interested In the forthcoming drive, because It so intimately concerns the transportation end of many different trades and Industries, some of which depend almost exclusively upon the express serrice. Regarding the conditions which led to a decision for a national drlre of this character, an express official made this statement: "It is an ac knowledged fact that the arerage American businss man regards a sat isfied customer as a direct asset to his business. He would do nothing that might Jeopardize his good rela tions with that customer. But If the goods he sends to the customer arrlre in bad order, if the contents are dam aged or pilfered because they were exposed during the Journey, or If, may be, entire shipments are lost because of Inadequate marking or insecure packing, the customer may not wait long for explanations, but place his business elsewhere." "Start Express Shipments Right" Is a slogan which will be carried throughout the campaign and which if adhered to will mean a great sarlng to business and their customers. | 18 DIVISIONS OF GERMANS ARE ON THE WESTERN FRONT London. —British newspapers of all shades of opinion are derotlng seri ous attention to the attitude adopted by the Oerman gorernment toward the armistice conditions.

"She haa now concentrated more than 18 divisions under Von Hinden burg on the western front," the cor respondent quotes his Informant as saying. "We also have the beat rea j sons to believe that Germany is keep ing her troops under arms on the pre text of economic necessity.
