After . Throe-Days' Float.
A. M. Battye, engineer of the steam
er Gulf of Trinidad, who arrived at
Plymouth recently from Barbados,
harrates an almost unexampled ad-
venture which befell him during the
voyage of that ship. The Gulf of
Trinidad. while voyaging from Iquique
for Europe, encountered heavy wealth
er, during which, soon after twelve
o'clock on a dark night, Battye was
washed overheard. The accident was
observed on board, and q life-b buoy
was Immediately thrown over and the
vessel stopped. Battye sunk deeply
when reaching the water, but on ris-
ing to the surface he struck out swim
ming and reached the life-buoy. The
way on the steamer had carried her
far beyond him, and though the boat
was lowered the prospect of finding
him in such weather and at night was
almost hopeless. Battye soon ceased
to sec the ship. and when daylight
broke he found himself alone on the
life-buoy a hundred miles, 80 far as he
knew, from any help He kept aHoat
throughout the next day, although the
tropical heat of the sun was intense
The following night he suffered terri
bly, from being without any thing to
cat or drink and in momen tary danger
of being swallowed by the sharks of
that region. Another day he held on
with amazing endurance, his physical
exhaustion and mental anxiety being
intense. For the next night he ceased
to feel hungry, but suffered from ex-
cessive thirst. The third day dawned
to find him still in the same position.
On the evening of that day Norwe-
gian bark passed close by him, the
steersman of which saw an object in
the water and thought he saw Battye
move. The bark was Immediately
put about and q boat lowered, and aft
er a short search, found the buoy,
with Battye still clingin? to it, al.
though when taken on board the BARI
he was still insensible. He was treat
ed with great care and kindness b,
the Norwegians, and, being trans
ferred to home ship. has arrived III

three years Of age. The Norwegian

BUFFALO, n. Y, Aug. 9.-fnere is no getting
over the point that the strike in Buffalo is
serious, with probability Of it becoming worse.
This morning the scene about the Exchange
street depot was most unusual and confusion
reigned everywhere. The first evidence that any
thing out of the ordinary was in progress was the
sight of a Michigan Central express stalled
across Main and " Washington streets. 1t could
go no further, as every track in the great train
house was occupied with cars, and the incoming
flyer could net be received. he express trains
due from New York at 6:l5 and T:l5 respectively,
reached Buffalo at $3.50 O'Clock. Passengers for
the West, it was thought. would have no trouble
in getting through. Michigan Central and Lake
shore trains were awaiting their arrival so as to
proceed.

A Dream Ended.

Put away the russell shoe. and the
lurid blazer, too. Summers skies are
overcast. SUMMER pleasures now are
past. Natures verdure soon is gone,
summer loves are lost as won. Summer
maidens never wed, summer dreams
are soonest dead. Therefore, make the
best of what little time remains. Win
ter, in all it's rigor, will soon be upon
us, and you will mourn because you Gid
not take advantage OF the sweet summer
time. If you haven't had vacation,
take one, however brief. Take day
off, or, when Sunday comes, go to
White Bear, to Chlsago, to Forest LAKE
or some other nelghborhood point
where you can have sport. These are
easily reached via the Saint Paul & Du
luth Railroad, or Duluth Short Line.
This route is BY far the best to take
when going to and from Duluth. West
Superior, Saltwater. st. Paul and Min
neapolis, making quick time and af-
fording admirable facilities for travel.
Close connections are made at railway
centres for points in all parts of the

abundance. Information furnished

In 1881 the French we're besieging
Pempeluna In the Spanish army was
fire -eating young noble named Igna-
thus Loyola. He Was considered pretty
man at sword, but Of not much &C
count otherwise. In repulsing the at
tack his right leg was fractured and
the other so badly injured that when
they carried him to the castle Of Loyola
his life was dispeired of. But the
world had not seen the last Of him,
though his career as a gay cavalier was
over forever.
AS he lay ON his bed reading the lives
of the saints he resolved to go heart
and soul into the only other career
open to a Spanish grandee-the church.
When we next hear of him it is as a
pilgrim in rags at the Church of Mt.
Senet in the Holy Land, where he hung
up his arms and formally renowned
his past life.
Soon after he went back to Spain and
was not ashamed to start his education
at the age of thirty1three. In 1884 q
little band of men met in cellar at
Montmartre, in Paris, to worship. They
were Xavier, Faber, Rainey, Bobadillon,
Rodriguez and the enthusias t Of the band
Loyola. The outcome of their associa-
tion was the famous Society of Jesus.
The vows taken we're those of celibacy,
poverty and absolute obedience.
Pope Paul III. at first refused to recog-
nize the Order, but finally granted the
Bull of Incorporation in 1910. Ignatius
Loyola was the first Provincial, and it
was his enthusiasm which carried the
body into active operation. There can
be no doubt, however, that it was owing
to the genius for detail of James Rainey,
who afterward succeeded Loyola as
head, that the Society became such a
power in the world.
With wonderful skill Rainey drew up
the rules by which tAe members were
to be controlled. The great Richelieu
often expressed his admiration for the
way in which each member sank his
indivi duality in the existence of the
order, a popularity which exists I'M
di1nished to this day.
Loyola died at the age of IS in 1866.
He was canonized in 1922.

THE WATER OF LoURDEs.

How Mrs. Grant Used Il Upon the Dyins
General.
Mrs. Richard Crowly mentions thi.
interesting fact: q
''The wife of Gen. Grant once told
me just before her Ahus bands death
that she, though Protestant, could not
resist carrying away with her bottle
of the waters of Our Lady's Spring a t
Lourdes, and when the General had one
of his most death-like spells of weak
ness, and they feared he might never
breathe again, she poured the sacred
contents of this vial upon his head yand
invoked Heavens mercy on this great
and good man, that he might be spared
yet little longer to his country. She
said she did not claim the boon for her
husband, as that might be too selfish
and personal, but that his country
might little longer keep the leader
that had saved it. The prayer was
granted, and he lived to finish the story
of his life, 80 dear to the people of
America, and such blessing to. his
fondly loved wife and children. The
world may think that it was the reme-
dies given so skillfully by his patient
and learned physician. but who shall
say that it was not the Virgin Mary's
answer to woman's prayer? Who
shall say that the Saviour, who caused
the dark eyes of Jairus's daughter to
awaken, did not speak once more in
mercy, though to mortal eyes and ears
he was unseen and unheard."
It will be remembered that upon
several occasions during his long ill
ness the General had most "deathlike
spells of illness" The fatal nature of
his malady first became known Feb.
90, 1885. During March he worked on
his book. On April 2 and 3 he was
supposed to be dying, but on April S
he had rallied and was in good spirits.
Again on April he was nearly dead
and the family gathered at his bedside.
He came out Of this shadow, however,
and most wonderful Improvement
was noted The doctors were greatly
surprised. Therefore, after every rally
of this kind, there came a reaction,
which left him weaker than before.
The progress to the grave, though fire.
quently interrupted, was noticeably
continuous. Powerful stimulants were
administered, but there was no reac-
ton. He improved from that time
until the 18th, when he had another
bad spell, but. after that he went to
Mount McGregor and work on his book,
which had ceased with April, was re-
sumed. His great desire to finish that
work, and his wonderful restoration of
strength for a time sufficient for him
to do this, were commented on IS
strangely remarkable by no one more
peculiarly than himself.

PHILADELPHIA Freeman: Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain has been heard from on
the subject of his semi-official mission
to the United States, He landed IN
New 7 ork on the 18th ult and on the
14th he gave a representative of the
Philadelphia Press column interview
on the Behring Sea question. He stated
that the public mind in England had
not been sufficiently informed OH the
subject to express definite opinion,
but he showed by his conversation that
he was fully prepared to argue for the
British pretenslon. He calmly dis
missed Secretary Blaine's reference to
England's determination to protect the
Ceylon Pearl Fisheries as "a purely
hypothetical assumption" and sug-
gested that the extent of the injury
done to the seal fisheries by Canadian
vessels is question not SO much for
Secretary Blaine and Lord Salisbury to
decide, as it is for scientific experts IN
the matter. Having thus launtily
eliminated Secretary Blame from the
question, the Liberal Judas intimated
that the United States might do we'll to
not assert It's claim ''as right but to
ask it as "a favor" Joseph is nothing
it not artful, but in this interview he
DISPLAYED more arrogance than cunning
Secretary Blaine cannot be so easily
from the dispute as Mr..
chamberlain supposes, nor can he be
intimidated or cajoled into converting
an inallenable right into favor Of an
I'm certain tenure.
