SAVED BY A BUOY.
DESPERATE STRAITS OF THE CREW OF A
WRECKED BRIGANTINE.

The Vessel Strikes on a Rock on a Stormy
Night and Goes Down-Sailors Fill the
Yawl, and Are Finally Rescued by Life
Savers.
NEW YORK, October 30.-Captain Munro,
his 16-year-old son and his crew of nine COL
ored sailors, of the wrecked brigantine
Eugene, which went to pieces on the beach
at Jones' Inlet, near Fire Island, arrived in
this city to-day. The castaways were sorry
looking men after their disastrous expert
ence. All they saved from the wreck was
the clothes they wore. OF these there was
very little. Captain Munro tells the follew-
ing story of the wreck:
SIT was about $50 o'clock on Tuesday
night when we struck. The night was dark
and stormy. 1 knew that we were in
dangerous waters, and consulted the chart.
There is no mention of the shoal we were
driven upon near Jones' inlet. took the
usual course straight towards the island
light. Suddenly saw a buoy ahead, and
put the helm hard down, but was too late.
There was crash, followed by shock,
which threw us off our pins, and the brig
was stuck in the sand.
"We were going along under full sail,
and you can imagine the force of the shock
to the vessel when she ran upon the bar.
The timbers ereaked and shivered, and the
next minute both masts snapped and went
over the side. 1 told the crew to get the
yawl ready, but / determined to remain
aboard until the last minute. 1 had all
the old sails brought on deck, poured kero-
sene over them and set them afire 1t made
a flare like a house afre. That was our
signal of distress, and it was seen by the
crew of the lite-saving station on shore. 1t
was two hours before the Eugene began to
90 to pieces. Then we entered the yawl.
tell you, IL of us crowded that little thing.
We had provided ourselves with flash
lights, which we waved continually. No
answering signal came, and no sound was
heard except the roar of the surf. Then we
began to drift out to sea, and knew if we
did not get help within the next ten min
utes we would surely be lost Ny only re-
gret was that I had my boy with me. I
blamed myself for bringing him along. All
at once we bumped against buoy.
"'Hold fast to that I shouted, but the
sea had already carried us beyond it.
urged the men to make a mighty effort to
reach the buoy again. They tried again,
and that effort saved us. The water filled
our boat, keeping US constantly bailing, and
every now and then a Sea would sweep be-
tween the boat and the buoy, as if de-
termined to wrench it away from us. We
finally found painter and made the yawl
fast to the buoy, and thus we were tossed
around ior another hour, when the life
saving crews life boat found us. 1t was the
closest call l had in my 20 years experience
at sea. The Eugene belonged to me. She
was a frst-class vessel, II years old, and
valued her at S., 600. 1 remained at Fire
Island until saw oil owned in the world
disappear under the waves"

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
The True Side Of
Clothing.

We fear we mayllose some
of you by saying our clothing
is the best.
We don't say the highest
in price. We say the best.
Quite another thing than
highest in price. The surer Of
being low in price for that.
We mean the best quality for
as little as we, buying 100000
yards, if need be. at a single
purchase, can sell it for. We
mean the best made for less
than anybody else does sell it.
We make our clothing styl-
ish., We make it substantial.
Everything else arranges
itself behind the quality and
make. These are the true
sides of clothing for you to
look at.

when my little boy was only few months
old, eczema, or salt rheum, appeared on his
face, head and neck. 1t also came out on his
body, but not SO severe as on and about his
head. Blotches and pimples would come out
thckly. break and discharge a thin watery
fluid, and then scales would form.
IT ITcHED INTENSELY
and caused the poor little fellow great deal of
suffering for nearly five years. In that time we
consulted several of the leading physicians, but
he did not seem to get any peter. Then, about
a year ago. we decided TO give him Hoods
Sarsaparllla, and as the result of fair trial he
is now entirely well, his skin being smooth and
fair as can be. We also used Hoods Olive
Ointment and found it excellent as an outward
application. To Hoods Sarsaparilla and Oint.
