WEDNESDAY, MAY 27. PIRATE TALE OF FLORIDA KEYS Key West Spongers Declare War on the Tarpon Springs Fleet. Burn and Rob. Tampa, Fla. —A tale of piracy, of looting a ship and robbing her crew, and finally of destruction of the ship by fire, off Marquesas Banks, some 25 miles from Key West, is told by the crew of the schooner Edna Louise, belonging to the Tarpon Springs sponge tleet. The crew made Tampa this morning, coming along the lower Florida coast in a lifeboat into which they claim they were forced by some 25 men who came out of Key West Saturday in o steam launch boarded the Louise and at the point of pistols made her crew of seven teen men load the lifeboat with a scant stock of provisions and leave in the small craft. After the Louise’s crew left the boat, according to the story of Captain Henri Michel, the Greek commander, the Louise was set on fire. They saw her burn to the water's edge and the pirates leave. Then the lifeboat was pointed toward Cape Romaine, where they landed for fresh water coming thence to Tampa under sail. Captain Michel says the men on the launch took the Louise's crew by surprise, leaping aboard with pistols drawn. They robbed the men of what money and other valuables they had, appropriated some of the diving outfits, ruined the remainder, then drove the crew overside into the life boat. This is second occurrence of the kind in the past few days. On Fri day the schooner Amelia of the Tar pon sponge fleet, was sunk half a mile from the Key West dock, by Key West spongers, who dynamited her, according to the story told by her crew, who arrived here Sunday by steamer.

THE SONG THAT AfIAOE HER WEEP The South Atlantic Squadron of His Majesty’s Navy dropped anchor in a British colonial port in the trop ics and the band came ashore from the flagship to give a concert on ihe plaza. A stately American girl on the Arm of a red-jacketed lieutenant W’alked up near the pavilion and it did not require much guessing to tell what part of the United States sue came from. "I say, old chap,” said the lieuten ant to the bandmaster, “Let’s have a dash of something from States—not that blawsted ‘Yankee Doodle,’ but — aw—sentimental, doncher know!” The bandmaster said “page 18” and then from the military band, like a great organ, came: “The sun shines bright on my old Kentucky Home” — the notes appeared to pronounce the familiar words on the still night air. “Tis summer, the darkies are gay”— the American girl tried to swallow something that rose in her throat. “The corn top’s ripe”—she reached for her handkerchief—“and the mea dow’s in the bloom"—it was no use! She must weep and she did—right on the lieutenant’s red jacket. Perhaps this meloily which reached the young American girl’s heart is the most popular of all of Stephen C. Foster’s songs. In any event most Kentuckians revere it as much as they could any hymn. This song and all other good “Songs That Never Grow Old” are in The Herald’s rare and unique collection.

RITCHIE GIVEN GOOD DRUBBIG Charlie White, of Chicago, Turns Trick on Californian in Hard 10-Round Go. Milwaukee, Wis.—Charlie White of Chicago decisively defeated Willie Ritchie of California in a ten-round boxing bout here last night. White outfought the Westerner in almost all of the rounds. The bout was vicious and bloody at all times, with Ritchie bleeding pro fusely from the face and nose. His eyes were nearly closed at the end and he was a sorry looking champion long before the bout ended. White bled some, too, but was far the fresher at the end. White took the lead in the first round and had the Californian hang ing on and groggy most of the round The Chicagoan slowed up, however, and Ritchie came back and took the lead in the second and third rounds. The remainder of the battle was Whites, except the seventh and tenth periods, which were even. The battle was one of the hardest ever seen here. Ritchie realized he was against a hard hoy early in the fight and did most of the boring in but always was met with hard left jabs to the jaw. White fought by far the cleaner battle. His judgment of distance was better and his lefts to the face and rights to the body were too much for the champion. Ritchie used a left swing repeat edly, but frequently missed and then was forced to clinch. Twice Referee Harry Stout wrenched the defeated man’s hands from the ropes while in clinches.

Heavy weight is a raid on your pock etbook. And a heavy six cannot give you greater service than a light six that’s equally well built. By modem engineering methods, pressed steel and cast aluminum take the place of heavy forgings in the Chandler. This gives greatest strength with lightest weight. Chandler power is enhanced, too, *-y im- Which Light Weight Six Are Yok Going to Buy? IF you pay more than fifteen hundred dollars for an automobile you are surely going to buy a six. And it must be a light six. Your only problem is which one to choose. Which One? Will you buy a light weight six that is an after-thought, a modification or abbrevia tion of some larger model, or will you buy the light weight six that is just what its de signers started out to build the best car they know how to build, regardless of cost? Will you choose a light six that has been rushed out to meet competition, when you can just as well get one that was carefully designed, by men who know, to meet a market and fulfill its requirements? If you study all the light weight sixes carefully, If you see how they are designed, if you consider their equip ment, if you examine their workmanship, if you meas ure the six-cylinder experience of the builders back of them, you will choose the Chandler.
