London.-Little by little the world As learning some of the romance and at times punctuated spa «traffic lanes op€ \The dangers that lurked in the Arablun meas and Indian ocean have been in a general way from the too admiralty reports of ships by submarines and raiders. in the life of a raider pa- told by a correspondent of the Times, as follows: I At the beginning of March, 1917, I «was in H. M. S. on the Aden dull job, as all patrolling But we did not pretend to for the more thrilling occu- searching for the German Wolf, Her guns could outrange 'the guns of our little ship, so-effectual- ly, that, had we met her, we should .no great desire to meet her, About 10 o'clock one evening a 81g a malman appeared at the wardroom t door with a message from the bridge, \Prom the officer of the watch, sir. Ship on the starboard bow showing no Tights\ \Probably an old tramp scared out of his wits by these yarns about the Wolf,\ suggested someone. \All these merchantmen are going about without lights nowadays.\ 'The captain and the navigator went up to the bridge, where they were presently joined by the first Heutenant. The moon was nearly full, casting a white track across the dark blue car pet of the sea. It was the kind of my back memories of a ' “3m , of lounging in a well- * * «ushioned punt, and listening to a good s band. To connect such a night with German raiders, guns, mines and tor- pedces was quite impossible; the whole wetting was entirely wrong The mysterious ship was now two points on our port bow, and about 'three miles ahead. A thick volume of smoke pouring from her funnel sug» gested that she was in a hurry, or, at -all events, was not disposed to be so- «lable with us. We had been ambling along comfortably at eight knots; the order was given to Increase to ten. 'The shutter of our signal lamp began to rattle. . . *What ship is that?\ Claimed British Registry. The signalman had to repeat the «question twice before he evoked an answer, *Toritella,\ was the belated reply. *What - natlonality?\ . we - asked «promptly. \British was the answer, \What are your signal letters?\ was «our next question. \J. F. K. L.,\ came the answer. We hunted up the name in Lioyd's <list, but without success. \a \Are you sure you have got his \mame right, signaiman? Ask him again.\ _ \What is your name?\ asked the patient signalman. This time the mys; terlous stranger expanded volubly. \Turritella London.

Fish Had False Tooth. A fish wearing false teeth was hooked in the Gulf of Mexico, near In- dian Rocks, Fla., by A. L. Anderson of Independence. Judge Anderson was invited to go out in a boat with H. H. Ingersoll, a well known resident of Indian Rocks. During the day they brought up a specimen of the \swell toad\ or burfish variety. As the hook was pulled out it brought with it a front plate with four false teeth attached to a gold bridge. Later it was learned by the aston ished fishermen that a few days be- fore a visitor from Oldsmar, a nearby resort, had dropped his teeth while bathing.-Kansas City Star. C..0.
