SHIP CREWS HERE GO OUT ON STRIKE ' All American Vessels In -Port Are ""Tied Up by Marine Engineer Strike. Crews from every American Blilp In tlie harbor were ordered ashore yester day by Business Apent Mendel of the Marine Kneineers, Firemens", Cqoks and Stewards' associations in accordance "with telegraphic instructions to Kim from the national headquarters of the various as sociations at New York. J Mr. Mendel's instructions were for all men, both engineer and "deck, branches to refuse to sign on any ship, either ocean or coastwise. The result is that every American ship in port is tied up. The strike order applies to all sea-going tiiR.:. also, but does not affect harbor craft. The shipping board steamer Afoundria came in yesterday morning froni New Orleans to John A. Merrltt & Co., and Mr. Mendel declined to order her craw off until he receives further instructions from New York, inasmuch as the crew signed articles before the stike was called. The same situation exists with rezard to the Coahoma County, which was expected to sail Saturday and on which the crew signed. The Galveston and Lake Gardner, twc other shipping board vessels, are under going repairs and have only two or three men aboard. These men are ordered off.

TALLAHASSEE. May 1. Bungalow aprons, creamed onions and cullins out slacker - he,ns, were some of the subjects receiving attention at the hands of the club girls last week in their short course at the Florida State College for Women. To the ordinary layman, actually seeing this work or hearing about it in an ordinary .way. means little. .But to have it explained by the "capable home demonstration authorities of the college (Misses Sa rah W. Partridge, Harriette B. Lay ton, Agnes Webster, Lonny Landrum, May Morse and Minnie Floyd) is to understand much about it. Thu3 hav ing it explained is like "hearing is believing." .Among the course being given the following have received most stress: Poultry, sewing, cooking, home, im provement. The staff, named above, of the home demonstration department of the college are doing the instruct ing. ."' In the poultry course, Miss Floyd is teaching the' principles of culling out slackers, feeding for eggs and for meat, housing, etc. The girls are di vided into three " sections and each has made a chicken inspection trip into the city. ,The course in cooking does not em phasize as strongly as might be ex pected the ' preparation of delicacies, but stress is placed upon the more substantial dishes. The young ladies are taught how to take and make wholesome and palatable articles of food of things our grandmothers would .have thrown away. So clean are the practice kitchen kept that it makes one think of the "ar-mee" life. In the sewing course Miss Landrum has shown the youngsters how to measure and s'.eh and rip and hem and sew and ..at raw goods into fin ished garments, one'' would think were prepared in a high class tailoring shop of Chicago. Very conspicuous is the home im provement work bing done by the girls. Old, discarded furniture is be ing overhauled, repaired, patched and thrown together into high class tables. chairs, desks, washstand.j and dres.j ers. Coats of paint have been ap plied which gives one the impression that the work of an artist is being displayed. Theie courses opened on Monday, the 25th, and will close Saturday, May 7. There are. 66 girls in attendance from at least 20 counties of the state, from as far west as Escambia and as far south asJJeSoto and Palm Beach. All the girl? are receiving the work free of cost to themselves and their families,' having won the trips as pre miums for exceptional club work. Va rious civic organizations in their coun ties contributed money for the trips, which shows a splendid public spirit edness. ' - Eight different kinds of clubs are represented by the girls who have won their way to the' short course. These clubs are: Bread, calf. 'bee, poultry, sewing, pig, dairy, pantry, grape, orange and rabbit. On Wednesday of last week the girls met and perfected a state organiza tion. Miss Marie Bradfisch, St. Johns St. Johns clur; "'Miss county, is president of the Alene Young, Hillsboro county, is vice president; Miss Elsie Stoutamire, Leon county, is , secretary, and Miss Eva Simms, St. Johns county, ia treasurer. Tho purpose of this young organiza tion is to foster home demonstration work, in the state generally; and in the members' home counties in particular. Since coming he"re last Monday these girls, who may be the house wives of the Florida of tomorrow, have been royally entertained. In the be ginning a college girl was designated "big sister" for each club'girl, and this bifcj sister. see3 that her chai'ge re ceives every consideration and care. One night they were honor guests at a play on the campus ghien by the college students. : Thursday night, 66 strong, they passed by counties down the receiving line at the governor's reception. It is said that when the club girls appeared on the scene, high moguls, be they , law makers or su preme judges, dignified business men or humorous politicians, .wavered and held back till the club-girl procession had passed. It was noticed that the girls were highly pleased at this spe cial tribute to them. Yesterday, after noon they were given a party- on the college campus.

JACKSONVILLE, May 1 The Jack sonville board of city commissioners has decided upon the purchase of a naval sub-chaser to be converted into a fire boat for use on the river front here aiul has appointed a committee composed of Commissioner Evans, Fire Chief Thomas llaney and Coun cilman John Callahan to. inspect a number of the vessels. .According to a leter to the commis sion from A. M. Shoen, chief engineer of the Southeastern Underwriters' as sociation at Atlanta, the sub-chaser is considered the best type of boat for this purpose-. "With the putting of ;i j fire boat into service, Mr. Shoen said, I a reduction of 25 cents per $100 would I be made in insurance rates on all wharves and piers along the water! front. On all other buildings within 50G' feet of the buikhcad lines a re duction of 5 cents" on rates will he granted. Although Mr. Shoen said it would be necessary to have a crew of eight men bn the fire boat, the city would be re quired to keep only three men on board continuously, using five members of the fire department to fill out the crew if the fire boat was called into service to fight a blaze. According to information furnished by the navy, there are 12 sub-chasers at Charleston, S. C, and three at New Orleans, that the city could select from and hundreds of them are avail able at many yards on the Atlantic coast. While the prices average around $12,000, it is" believed a chaser can oe bought at a much lower figure in ac cordance with the government's desire to sell chajcrs for fire boats to mu nicipalities at reduced figures.
