as was brought by the swell. the n0rther
burst from 4 clear sky, and chain was
paid out and a second anchor let go.
Then all became confusion. The break Of
T the sea against the vessels bows caused
the spray 10 fly up as high as the
topsall yards. Both chains snapped
aud toe bark was taken on the
crest of huge wave and dashed up on
the beach almost as quick as 1t takes to
tell. Fortunately our boats were sound,
and while the vessel rolled broadside on
the sandy beach we managed to get into
those on the lee side and reach the shore.
Everything belonging 10 the crew was
lost, and so savagely did the sea beat
against the bark that she was soon a
wreck. To show how completely the
vessel was used up, her hull was after
wards sold at auction for $40. and her
cargo of coal, which lay on the beach,
for $40"
Standing near Capt. Oxholm while his
story was bein9 told was the master Of
the wrecked Norwegian bark Holden,
Capt. A. Benson. He said his vessel left
Cardiff on Oct. 10 with 406 tons of coal for
the Panama Railroad Company, and ar
rived in Navy Bay Nov. %. On the
morning OF Dec. , seVenty-twO tons Of the
cargo he'd been DISCHARGED, and the yes
sci lay with an anchor out. No premo-
milton wss given of the coming storm,

second anchor could he let 20 his vessel
was dashed on shore. She struck broad
side on, and the rollers broke over her,
reaching as high as the lower yards. The
officers and crew jumped over the lee rail,
and, after a severe struggle, succeeded in
reaching the shore. The vessel was
dashed into small pieces, and not piece
OF her was left holding together.
All of the men who escaped agree that
the norther was the most terrific ever en-
cOuntered, and that the suddenness of it's
coming and the fatality attending Its
course was matter to be remembered
for lifetime. The heartrending Incl
dents accompanying the storm were
many, but none so sad as tine loss Of the
captain of the British bark Linton. who
was drowned with his boy, while his wife
and infant babe were saved. Many acts
OF heroism were recorded, and the gallant
attempts at rescue in the smothering
norther shows the bravery of the sailors.

IN A CAsK OF RUM.
The Peculiar Story of q MiIlionaire's
LAST Resting Place.

CHICAGO, Dec. 27.-Two weeks ago the
widow of Walter s. Newberry died in
Paris, leaving a large fortune, over So, 000,-
coo, which. by Mr.. Newberry's will. goes
TO the establishment of a public library
in Chicago. Newberry died at sea in
1887. The Herald to-day publishes
story which has caused a sensation among
the late millionaire's friends and ac-
quaintauces. as the secret. II it is truly
told, has been perfectly kept up to this
time.
In November. 1867, Mr.. Newberry sailed
for HavIe TO join his family, who were in
Paris. The boon cOmpaniOnship and al
most abandon, which ocean life awakeus
in most kindly souls was not at all to his
taste. He was always austere and tact
turn on shore and he chose to remain so
at sea, repellng every offer Of friendship
or even acquaintance. he was recog-
nized. however, By a gentleman from
New York, who knew him by reputation
and did not care, under such uuprOmising
circumstances, to force his acquain-
lance further. In such surround.
ings as this, an alien in the midst of his
own people. Newberry sickened and
died. He escaped the usual burial. of
those dying at sea by the interference of
the New York man who knew him, and
who assured the captain that the dead
mans relatives would meet any expense
incurred in keeping the body. A cask
of Medford rum that formed part of the
cargo was brought into requisition. Mr..
NewbeTry's body was placed IN the rum,
and, Of course, was preserved in the al
coholic liquid.
When the cargo was discharged the
cask was rebilled by the New York man
TO Newberry's friends in Chicago. Mrs.
Newberry was then in Paris, a fact of
which the gentleman referred to was
ignorant. The cask left for America on
the next steamer, and in due time arrived
at Chicago on a freight train over the
Michigan Central railroad. The friends
who had been notified by the New York
/ man OF the shipment of the body took
/ charge of the cask on its arrival and had
/ it carted to GrRceland Cemetery on a
/ dray. A grave was dug and the cask,
still containing Newberry's corpse, was
! put into it and covered up. MIR. +. /.
Tinkham, well-known citizen. who died
some years ago, was one of the partici.
pants in this affair, and stated the facts
before his death. The body of the grabbed
and unhappy millionaire still Feposes in
its bath OF rum In Graceland Cemetery.

SOME LoNG.LOsT ESTATES.
Millions of Money Awaiting American
Heirs and Many People Made Dupes.


From the Phil0de1phta Times.
NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-New YORK al
ways has a large class of people who are
constantly getting enormous fortunes
from England. Deluded by some second
rate lawyer they are often easily led to SUBJ
scribe sums OF money, more or less large,
tor the purpose of obtaining their rightful
share in some vast estate in England,
which, if existing at all, is usually pretty
we'll secured to some heir across the wa
ter. The TOwnleY estates, which are
valued at millions, has occu-
pied the attention of more than one i'm
pecuni0us lawyer and caused TO be
tleeced OF mis- hard earnings many an un-
fortunate supposed-to-be heir. Last week
the Townley affair was agitated again by
the discovery of some papers, which will,
it is claimed, prove that the Herbert
family was related to the Fownleys. The
documents were found by Alderman Her
bert, of New Brunswick, N. j., and
among them was a marriage certificate of
Hannah Bourne and Richard Lawrence,
at Flushing, l.. l., in 17l7. This is the
long missing link, and another delegation
will be sent TO England to advocate their
claims.
But, meanwhile, another long lost es-
penter estate in England, which is only
prevented from dropping into the pockets
OF number OF Carpenters in America, by
four trustees, who have retired to private
life so thoroughly as to leave no trace of
their whereabouts. The story of the es-
tate is somewhat imperfect. William
Carpenter, who died in 170o, was the only
son OF Richard OF Wales, who was born
Aug. %, 1901. On Aug. 10, 1907, the es-
tate, valued at 2,796 s.. lid, was turn
ed over to the custody of the Crown
and trustees appointed. In 1S45 the
| Carpenter family, residing at
Providence, r. L., and heirs of one
| William Carpenter, who died IN London
about 1900, commenced proceedings TO re-
cover the above estate, which, in 1873
years, had augmented to considerable
value, but after long litigation it was
decided that they were not the heirs.
Various subterfuges have been resorted
TO by the English lawyers, such AS re-
porting that the claim was mythical or
that such an estate might have existed,
but had been swallowed up in some mys-
FERROUS manner; but in lS45 these same
lawyers were compelled TO admit that
the estate not only existed, but
was awaiting an owner. When
were defeated the Carpenters now work
! ing for the estate set about completing a
chain Of evidence that would prove them
4 TO be the legal inheritOrs. The records do
not show who the trustees are. They
were not appointed in the legal way, but.
/ after the adjournment of the court, by a
| special order. One Of the trustees is said
/ TO he known. but the others are scattered
about 10 New York. Philadelphia and
| Boston. The estate IN question does not
! compare with the Baker or rOwnly claim,
1 nor win her Majesty be compelled 10 clap
/ a mortgage on Westminster Abbey in the
J event OF their success; but the claim Will
Involve many miliuns. One-tenth OF
which would more than satisfy the parties
! interested. ....

CAN'T PULL DOWN THEIR VEST.
Gossip About the New Adm Illustration
Leader In the Senate.
From the Esuo York World.


From the Eslo York World.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Vest
is beginning to be recognized as the adj
ministration leader upon the Democratic
side. he is to be the mouth piece of the
administration. This was shown In his
presentation of the resolution calling
for the Kelley correspondence and his
subsequent remarks upon the subject.
Mr.. Vest is a man who has more than Or
binary gifts as debater. He is perhaps
the best Otf-hand debater on the Demo-
cratic side. He has had longer train
ing in the active practice of the law
than almost any one among the Demo-
cratic Senators. he is below the me-
dunn size, with great round head set
down so low between his shoulders that
he has the appearance of no neck at all.
He is blonde, with a fiorid, high-colored
complexion. His face is very round and
double.chinned, and is shaven smooth,
with the exception of a small light-brown
mOustaohe, which curls in at the corners
of his mouth. His nose is straight. His
eyes are a cold tishy- blue, deeply set I'M
der broad bulging forehead. His blonde
hair Is beginning to thin and is brushed
so closely to bis head as to not conceal its
! outline. He has a pleasant voice, an
/ easy ueltNeIg anu Ieduy now OF language.
! He has positive, aggressive style. and at
! times a wonderfully fiOrid rhetoric. he
does net belong to the best school of ora
tors. He is not simple enough. His stvle
at times is very much overloaded with adj
jectives. But for all that be is an inter-
esting speaker when he is following a line
Of attack. l do not think he will be so
interesting posing Tor the defense. In his
position as a representative of the admin
istrstion and of the State Department he
is bound to be tettered and circumscrlbed.
He used TO dress in light gray cloth
similar to that worn by millers in the
country. But this winter he is much
more dignifed in his wearing apparel.
His short rOtund figure il now buttoned
up tn badly fitting black frock suit. He
still wears the soft hat which used
TO so with his miller's suit. but
he will doubtless give that up.
Mr.. Vest has always cultivated
those In authority, although he is
not fond OF going in general society. Last
year he lived economically by having
room in house rented by the Sergeant
alarms for the use OF the Senate on Cap
itOi Hill. This year he has given up That.
Mr.. Vest will have his powers as a lead.
er Of the Democratic side pretty thor
oughly tested when the Senate meets
again. Mr.. Vest was one OF the close
friends OF Mr.. Arthur. He was Arthur,s
companion very often on fishing trips. BE
was with him upon the Yellowstone ex-
pedition and could obtain more "a.
vors from Arthur than almost any Re
publican.

rler, az Chief Quanah desired that the
head men Of the tribe should meet him
t1at he might explain the causes leading
10 the death, lest the tribe should think
Yellow Bear had been murdered. About
a hundred bucks and some ffty squaws

the dry blood stood out IN welts on their
persons. This Is their way of mourning
