The Big SaaIe Reached New York With
Crew Exhausted. Passengers Scared

Oil Steamer Weehawken Saved by the
Devotion of Her Crew-Great Vessels
Transformed Into Icebergs,
New YORK, December 25.-Steamer
Saale, from Bremen, via Southampton,
reports that she had most dangerous
voyage, experiencing succession of ter
rife gales from the day she left the chan.
mel until she dropped anchor at quaran-
tine this morning. The Saale presented
the appearance of gigantic iceberg, her
sides, decks and rigging being covered
with ice. Her forward rigging up to the
yard arm, her bridge and upper works,
were coated with ice foot thick. On
the promenade deck the boats lay top
pied over, broken and knocked out of
the chocks by the huge seas which board
ed the vessel. The engine room veutila-
tors were carried away and lay bent and
twisted against the after starboard rail.
Scarcely boat was left dndamaged and
portion of the rails were broken. The
passengers were badly shaken up and
frightened. All were kept below and no
one was injured. The officers were
almost exhausted from hard work
and loss of sleep, some not having had
sleep for seventy-two hours.
The steamer Hermann arrived this
morning and reported that since leaving
Boston she had a whole gale from the
northwest, with high, confused seas and
intense cold. The vessel was iced up. Ths

REPUBLIC WILL LIVE.
That Seems To Be the Opinion Concerning

LONDON, December M.-The Paris

Rouvier's friends, rather than genuine
panic. The present political crisis could
have been foretold at any time in the
last 10 years by careful watcher. The
only regret is that it has been so long
hidden from the public. The best
course now is to apply the caustic.
France is none the worse for the expul-
sion of President Grevy, nor was Ameri-
ca any the worse for the washing of
White House linen when Andrew John
son was president. Itwould be public
benefit if the Panama Canal scandal
were followed by a gigantic scandal in
the department of public works. That
department. has long been controlled by
men lacking in character and technical
knowlege, for the benefit of influential
contractors who give commission on
their profits to deputies. [ anticipate
that the scandals will arouse the elector-
ate t, a sense of the value of moral
character I do not apprehend revolu-
ton that will sweep away institutions
which France has struggled for century
to secure.
II see no sign anywhere of a desire to
rush back to any pretender; but it is pretss
ty certain that an entirely new set OF
deputies will be returned at the next
election

HALIFAX, N. S., December 25.-The
Standard Oil steamer Weehawken arri ed
this afternoon in nearly b sssless state,
with the crew hopelessly exhausted. The

found its way below. The pumps became
choked and the engine DOM was flooded.
The entire crew were ordered below to
try to reduce the water and save the fiass.
On the 10th, the vessel ~as sighted by
the steamer Elbe bound east from New
York. The captain of the Elbe promised
to stand by until morning but during the
night the Elbe disappeared. The fire
men were then standing at their posts il
water. The next day another steam
lay near them but in the snow stolsg
they were parted. The engines wer
soon disabled, owing to coal and asIies
grinding in the water, but the crew got
clean water enough to allow the engines
to work and the vessel steered for Hall
fax. The captain says that it was the
crews hard work and devotion that
saved the ip.

THE MANAssEa SOCIETY.
An Organized Association OF Miscegeu-
ationIsts In Chicago.

CHICAGO, ILL, March 6.--There is a
local society in Chicrgo which could
live in no other country in the world,
considering that its members are out Oh
joint with the law Of the States OF the
Union. 1t is the ManasSeh society, and
it gave a large ball in a fair class hall
night or two ago.
The Menasseh Society is composed
entirely Of coored men who have mar
ried white wives. 1t afforded the I'M
usual spectacle OF promiscuous gath
ering Of both races, meeting together on
terms of social equality. In fact, they
were bound together by the closest ties
that can exiSt--a body of several hum
dred persons which seemed Ia be enjoy
ing itself as well as any other that
could be found in the city.
The Manesseh Society was organized
January ), 1892, and now has 120 mem.
bers. The qualifications for member
ship is legal marriage, good charac-
ter, and conclusive proof that the appli-
cants are living within the bounds OF
decency and morality. There is Com
mittee on Membership, which thor
oughly investigates each of these points
in every individual application. The
object is TO establish society, pure in
its moral tone, for the benefit OF this
class, which Is socially ostracised by
both races.
Incidentally, also, it is intended TO
make it a benefit organization, having
in view the care of its members in cases
of sickness, and providing suitable
burial in cases OF death. 1t is said that
there are $50 colored men living in the
city with white wives.

NERVOUS AND SICK HEADACHE.
How to Perfectly Cure Them.

All forms OF headache are OF nervous char
acter, and are caused by weakness, irrita-
ton or disease OF nerves Of the head, or to the
disorders of the system from Spring Debility'
malaria and TO cure such cases it is Absolutely
necessary to use Dr. Greele's NervurA. The
Grip, also, which has been so prevalent, causes
more headache and leaves the nerves OF the
head in a more weakened and diseased condl-
ton than any other known affection. THIS
condition should Hever be neglected. Many per-
sons who suffer from headache have, by repeat
ed failures to find relief despaired Of cure, To
