The yacht Argo belonging to DR..
sLeffingwell, of Chicago started out Of
this harbor on Saturday morning last at
9 o'clock for Chicago. On board besides
the crew were Mayor Petit and his son
Milton and Fred H. Joerndt. When they
reached the end of the pier a heavy swell
was running and no wind. Her anchor
was thrown out to keep her from going
on the breakwater and being dashed to
pieces. They signalled the life saving
crew and Capt. Cameron and his men
went out at once with the surf boat, and
after an hours hard pull succeeded in
! towing the yacht inside. There was
nothing in the harbor at the time and had
it not been for Capt Cameron and the
life saving crew the yacht would have
gone on the breakwater and became to-
tai wreck and all on board have gone to a
watery grave, and no little credit is due
them for their prompt and efficient action
