Is n statement Of al eye witness Of the

cended to the upper deck. Hero the
scene was terrible. The texas WAS
gone. The volumes Of escaping steam.
combined with the shrieks and groans
of the poor men caught In the ma

cold with horror. I saw the little
time left for thought, as the boat had
taken fire. 1t broke out near the
boiler. | looked QUE for a. float, but
could find none. I then took q state

ORIGIN Of LAGER BEER.

The German words lager beer sig
nifty stock beer-i. G., beer that has
been stored away. The story, as told
In Germany, IL an old Que. and runs
thus Many years ago a shoemaker,
near hamburg. sent his apprentice 70
get a bottle OF hamburg beer, which
was sold at that place ; but the boy,
not knowing this, went to tho city
itself. On returning lie met an 40
quaintance Of his who told him that
when he would come home his boss
would whip him for staying 20 long,
Tho poor boy, who was frightened at
this, thought it better not TO. 20 home
at all, but took his bottle, buried It un
der q tree, and ran away. He went
among the soldiers, where he llstin-
guished himself so that In a short time
lie became an officer. When one day
his regiment was quartered In this
small town, the officer thought proper
to pay a visit to his old boss, but not
before he had got the bottle Of beer
which he had buried some years before
under the tree. When he entered he
said. well. sir, here I bring you
your bottle Of Bamburg beer that you
sent me for" The shoemaker NOT
knowing what this meant; WAS told BY
the officer all about It. Thebottle was
then opened, and the bder was found
to be Of superior quality. When this
fact was known, some Of the brewers
built deep vaults, where they put their
beer, aud called 1t, after 1t had lain
there some time, lager, which meant
nothing moro than lying. The officer
afterward married the daughter Of tho
shoemaker, and drank q good deal OF
lager beer, receiving In his occupation
the assistance Of his fathsr-in-law.
