Buckley From Jacksonville Hurled Ashore by Northwest (iale. New York. April lt>.?Captain Hardy and his wife and eight members of the crew of the schooner Charles K. Buckley from Jacksonville for New York, perished last night, when tlicir life boat was wrecked after the Buckley had been rested themselves as a possibility end thp present investigation is bo iiig conducted to determine to what? ? xtcnt they can be successfully growr on lands of this character. The soil i? a rich, black muck, and the contir pour production of good crops ol r!ce for years with little or no fer tiMzer indicates its richness. It seems probable to the agricul tcral experts that basket willow rodf of commercial size can be raised, bul definite proof of thiR and of the besl methods to use is necessary befori willow can be fully recommended One difficulty, met with in all baskel willow ojerations on a large scale, ii said to be the securing of satlnfac tnry labor. The operation of cut ting and peeling the willows mus be carried on during a comparatively short period in the spring, and laboi of a fair degree of skill must bi available to perform the work exped it'ously and well. The present experiment Is bolnj carried out with approximately 1,001 rulings each of eight varities of has Vet willow, representing practically all of the types which give promts of being at all successful In the loca lity. These cuttings are set out h rows about 100 feet in length, run ning from the wetter to the drle trrntitl A In nrHor fn fonl V? nm ten Ha various conditions of soil and mois ture. The rods will be cut bacl each spring, and the experiment don Untied for several years until con elusive results as to the adaptablllt; of the various species are obtained.

One seaman, named Martinson, who remained on the deck of the Buckley, was rescued soon after midnight by being virtually lassoed by a lino shot across the bow of the schooner from the shore. Martinson got twisted up in the breeches buoy line and was iiragged from the deck into the seething sea. Life savers on shore ran with the line, dragging Martinson upon the beach more dead than alive. He was rushed to the Monmouth hospital in the automobile of a wealthy shore resident. Both of Martinson's shoulders and one leg were broken. He is not expected to live. Besides Captain Hardy and his wife It is believed that at least eight men, members of the crew, went down when the life boat failed to weather the waves. The Charles K. Buckley was heavily laden with lumber. She was a three-masted schooner of 430 tons. Her home port was Newark, N. J. The schooner became unmanageable early last night. She first struck the bea^. near Seabrlght, N. .1., then the iMnd caught her and f <\ ept her dowf!*tho coast where she appeared to break in two. Her careo of lumber kent her afloat. though a groat massyof it was swept away. ' Life-savers rigged up searchlights on the beach and shot line after line toward the vessei. Because of > the breakers it was impossible to launch a boat. A great crowd stood on the beach watching the spectacle. Several lines fell athwart the schooner, hut those on board were helpless or orowned and with the exception of the lone survivor made no attempt to seize them. Government# Trying Basket Willows In;South Carolina. # An investigation to determine the advisability of growing basket willows in the low-lying lands along the South Carolina coast has recently been started through cooperation bet ween Clemson agricultural college, the office of farmers, cooperative demonstration work, and the forest service of the United States department ot agriculture. Much of the low-lying lan din thif r< gion has previously been used foi the production of rice, but several factors, including the development of new rice areas in the Oulf States have made rice growing unprofitable and a new crop for the land is heinc sought. Basket willows at once sug SING THE PRAISES OF THIS SECTION Sotilli's Sous ami Daughters M?t't in Washington? Prominent Mrn There. Washington, April 15.?Sons and daughters of the South sang praises of her rapid coinmerical development and expanding influence in national affairs at the third annual banquet tonight of the Southern Society of Washington. Secretaries Bryan and Daniels put aside their responsibilities for the hour to attend. Other nota hies diners included Maurice Francis Egan, minister to Denmark, many of the Southern congressional delega' tion and Soutelierners in Washington official life. The scene was enlivened by the fre quent singing of Southern melodies, ' led by an old time negro quartette. As a North Carolinian, Secretary i Daniels spoke for "The Womanhood of the South," referring to the chang, ing scenes that have made women figure in modern economic life. The . chivalry of the type that was exemplified in the surrender of a seat in a street car, he thought, must be applied so as to lighten the burdens of women who were compelled to contribute to the support of their families. "Chivalry in its highest sense," he declared, "must not confine itself to the ball room, but must prove its genuineness by seeing that the woman who works is better paid and is not compelled to labor through long hours. "Perhaps we have been too tardy in this respects," he continued, 'but conditions are growing better. The Southern States are constantly improving conditions by the enactment of laws govering the employment of women, and the time is not far hefore it will be illegal for women to work at night or any longer than eight hours daily." Secretary Bryan, responding to the toast, 'Grandsons of the South." declared that when history was written President Wilson the latest president the South had given-?the nation, would stand out as illustrative of a courage not surpassed by any warrior.
