by Rev. Mr. Wilson this week. |
They sailed on the French liner

French port May 2.
The Rochambeau was attacked j
by a German submarine, accord- i
ing to press dispatches from Paris, >
and narrowly escaped torpedo tire. I
one torpedo passing ten yards
a-stern. The gunners of the Ro- I
chambeau returned the fire. Im
mediately upon receipt of news of
the attack of the French liner,
anxious inquiries were made by
friends of both families during al- j
most all of yesterday afternoon.
The substance of the cablegram '
relieved their fears. ;
PARIS, May -L? The French liner j
Roohambeau. recently arrived at a>
French porL narrowly escaped a tor-!
pedo fired by a German submarine, ac-|
cording to one of her passengers to-!
day. The torpedo passed a hare ten|

mediately fired a dozen shells at. the j
submarine. Whether they found their |
mark is not known.
As soon as the torpedo was sighted
the Rochambeau's officers sounded the I
alarm and all passengers were hurried j
10 i he lifeboats. There wa sno panic, j
Patrol vessels arrived at the scene
within 20 minutes, hut did not sight

parently saved her from a "hit" by the
submarine.

Mr. Ford sard that litis week an auiO|

driven into the building and another
tire on a new car had been punc

room.
Mr. Ford appealed to liie club to
apprehend the guilty persons who
have been dropping or throwing lacks
about the city. The club has a stand
ing reward for the arrest and con
viction of any person who throws
tacks and glass into the streets.
It is said that the tacks have been

;i$T!S SIT

D
REGISTRATION BOOKS WILL EE
CLOSED AFTER TUESDAY,
SITTING AT CITY HALL.
Citizens Who Want to Vote Will Have
to Be Careful to Sec Names
Are on the Poll Books.
Registrars engaged in listing the1
voters of Wheeling for the primary
May 10, and general city election,
May 21, are expected ..to complete J
their task today. Owing to the short
time in which the registrars had to
take the poll ol the city vote, they
have depended largely upon the poll
books of the election last fall to
secure their lists of voters for the city
election.
On Monday the registrars will sit
in the several precincts in the city,
each in the voting place in his own
precinct, for the purpose of amending
the registration book's. Those who
are entitled to a vote and whose
names may have been missed by the
registrar may he registered then.
The registrars will sit from 9 a. m.
to 12 o'clock "noon and from 1 p. m.
to f? p. m. in the precinct voting'
placfji. On Tuesday .at the same
hours, all the ivgisi raits will sit in
the Second branch council chamber
at city hall for the same purpose.
Every voter who desires a voice in
the selection of the men who will rule
th" city for the two years beginning
July 1. if he is not absolutely certain
that he is registered, should either
see his precinct registrar in his pre-!
cinct voting place during the hours
specified Monday, or at the council
chamber Tuesday. Apparently if vot
ers are not on the registration books
by 5 o'clock Tuesday evening they
will not be permitted to vote. The
ordinance adopted Tuesday night by
council provides specifically thai vot
ers not registered shall not be allowed j
to vote. No provision is made fori
permitting citizens to
davits.
Notices bearing the
precinct registrar and
which they will sii Monday for the
purpose of registering voters whose j
names have been missed are posted in
each of the thirty-nine city precincts.!
