KAYS-VILL- C- -U DE- U. S. STEAMER RAMS AND SINKS SUBMARINE E ANATLANTICLPORTr June Holds City Rponible for the Drown-'in- f of His Two Song in New Surrey Reservoir Year Afo . Samuel B. Rushforth, of Kaysville, through his attorneys, Bagley & Ashton, of Salt Lake City, has. made money demand in the sum of $25,500 on Kaysville City. The demand which is signed by Bagley & Ashton as attorneys, is sworn to by Samuel B. Rushforth. The demand Bets forth that two sons of Mr. Rushforth were drowned in the New Survey reservoir and that said reservoir is owned and operated by Kaysville' City; that said reservoir was not properly fenced; that danger signs forbidding bathing in said reservoir had not been erected. For the above and other reasons set forth in the demand, the money demand was made. The Kaysville City Council, on which the demand was made by service on City Recorder Lawrence B. Coles, has not taken action in the matter, but probably will at the next regular meeting of the council on Mon- day evening. May 18th. The pedple of Kaysville and the readers of The Reflex will recall the sad story of the drowning of Walter and James Rushforth, aged 11 and 9 years, respectively, in the New Survey reservoir on the afternoon of , May 10, 1916. Through persistent effort on the part of people of Kaysville, Layton 'and Farmington, the bodies of both the lads were recovered from the waters of the reservoir just ' at sunset. The notice of the money demand, which is considered as a forerunner of a suit at law, comes as a distinct surprise to the people of 'Kaysville.

The story of how one of Germany's latest and largest submarines fell a victim to Yankee seamanship that did the trick arrived at an American port. On her voyage to the other side, from which she has just returned, the vessel was attacked at the' same t, by two acting in concert from port and starboard. They were too close to permit the training of the liners, defensive gUna upon either of them, a fact suggesting a new phase of strategy since the arming of merchantmen. But this very circumstance pfoved the undoing of one of them. It was on the morning of May 19, when the steamship was about 200 miles off the coast of Ireland, that the lookouts caught sight of two periscopes. At the same instant they perceived two torpedoes already cleaving toward the liner. The captain ordered the helm hard over, swinging the vessel out of her course. As she turned, the torpedoes just missed her, or grated her bows at a harmless angle, according to some accounts.' So far it was anybody's game, but the odds seemed in favor of the kaiser. The sea was calm and the going was good just as good, however, for torpedoes as it was for the hunted ship denied the use of her armament. Orders had been flashed to the engine room for every ounce of steam to be crowded in the boilers and great plumes of smoke began to trail from men in d her funnels as the the stokehold jumped to the work which meant life or death to the good ship and all on board.
