radcs From Death.
A thrilling story of the res
cue of the crew of the Prince
Edward Island schooner Avcn-
ger, comes from St. Johns, n
+. The vessel was driven on
the rocks 20 miles from St.
Johns in a binding snow storm
While the vessel was pound
ing TO pieces the boat was
launched. and immediately
swamped. Certain death star
ed the crew in the face
Captain Rice called for a
volunteer 10 swim TO the shore
with a life line. Murdoch Gil
lies responded to the call and
was carried ashore on the
breast of an enormous wave.
but the shore was a prccipi-
uous rock upon which, in
the tumult of the waves it was
extremely difficult to effect a
landing.
There were in the sea a
number of barrels of oil swept
from the vessels deck. I'm
pcdcd and hindered by these,
Gillics could not obtain a hold
upon any point on the shore,
and was obliged to give it up.
He was drawn back on board
the vessel where he rested
about an hour.
Then he tried again. This
time he was successful. Get
ting his hand into a hole in
the rock he drew himself up
and by catching on to points
of rock he succeeded in climb
ing to a spot on which he
could fasten line. Then he
drew ashore a larger line, and
by means of this the Captain
and crew all got safely to
shore.
Gillies had nothing on him
but his drawers. under shirt,
socks and pair of slippers.
In this scanty clothing, hatlcss
and shivcring he had to walk
about five miles to the near
est lighthouse. There he OBJ
tanned more clothes and the
party proceeded to st. Johns,
having lost everything but
their lives.

53 DEGREES BELOW ZERO.
Men Die on the Roads and Birds
Drop From Trees.

LONDON, Feb. IS.-ln the
government of Penza, Russia,
the thermometer registers S.
degrees below zero, and there
is terrible suffering among
the peasants.
\ number of men have been
frozen to death on the high
roads and birds drop dead
from the trees.
Grain for the famine stuff
ercrs has arrived at Penza,
but it is impossible to distri-
butte it, as nearly all the hor-
ses have been killed for food
or sold TO procure money.
Five thousand horses have
been killed in Penza alone,
and it is estimated that sever
al million draught animals
haze been killed in Penza
alone, and ii is estimated that
several million draught ami
mails have been killed through
out the Empire since autumn.
Typhus fever. small pox and
diphtheria are decimating the
inhabitants. Around Penza
200 of the peasants have died
from these diseases.
In the governments of Sa-
mara, Saratoft and Mimi
Novgorod the conditions are
far worse than in Pcnza. Thou
sands of the peasants have
fallen victims to the hunger
typhus.
In the governments of kar-
koH and kazan the typhus
fever is killing the inhabitants
off by the hundreds.
In the vicinity OF Penza ~
go persons-men, women
and childred are daily fed
by charity.
In Samara grain only ar
rives in small quantities, and
is of bad quality and INSULT
cicnt for the needs of the PEG
pie. Hospital overflows with
cases of typhus fever. and an
other is being erected.

SENATOR John Walter Smith
last week introduced some
very important bills for the

receive the support of every

THE KELLEY INSTITUTE
Twelve Years of Established Merit !
NOTE OF
TO THE PUBLIC:

DWIGHT, ILL.,, April 80, 1892.
As a matter of justice to ourselves and to
the reputation of DR.. Leslie Z. Keeley's
Double Chloride of Gold remedies, for the
cure of the liquor, opium, n1orphine and
tobacco diseases and Neurasthenia, We warn
the public that these remedies are used by
no institution or sanitarium in the United
States except those established by ouI COM
pany under the uniform name of "The
Kelley Institute"
All others claiming to use our remedies
are frauds and imposters.
We have now sixty Kelley Institute, es-
tablished in various parts of the United
States where the Kelley treatment is adj
ministered and the Kelley remedies sold.
We, however, caution all to examine we'll
and know that they are dealing with genuine
representatives, authorized by us, before
taking the treatment or purchasing remedies.
The fraudulent establishments use the name
of "Bi-Chloride of Gold" or similar titles.
The newspapers do not discriminate suffi-
ciently to know that they are imitators, and
SO put down all accidents occurring at such
establishments as being brought about by
the Kelley treatment. This is a matter Of
much concern to us, hence this warning.
Respectfully yours,
THE LESLIE f. KELLEY co.
Curtis J. Judd, Sec'y and Treas.
The Kelley institute at Greensboro, y. c.,
is the only one in the state, and all repre-
sensations that there is in the state any cure
that is identical with, or the same as, the
Kelley Double Chloride of Gold Cure are
malicious, false, and made for the purpose Of
deceiving. We learn with indignant regret
that such claim is being made, and feeling
that if it be hurtful to us it will prove more
disastrous to those who are deceived thereby,
we sound this warning.

IusL nf Hugh Williams.

In the year 1864, ON the 5th day Of
December, the English ship Menai was
crossing the straits and capsized in
gale OF the elghty-one passengers on
board but one was saved His name
was Hugh Williams On the same
day, in the year l7S5, a pleasure
schooner was wrecked on the Isle Of
Man There were sixty persons in the
boat, among them one Hugh Williams
and his family. OF the threescore
none but old Hugh Williams survived
the shock On the 9th day of August,
1920, n picnicking party on the Thames
was run down by coal barge. There
were twenty five of the picnickers,
mostly children under i2 years of age
Little Hugh Williams, visitor from
Liverpool, only years old, was the
only one that returned to tell the tale
Now comes the most singular part Of
this singular story: On the 18th OF
August, in the year of our Lord 1889,
a Leeds coal barge, with nine men,
foundered Two OF them, both Hugh
Williamses, AN uncle and a nephew
were rescued by some fishermen, and
were the only men of the crew wh'
lived to tell of the calamity. Thes'
are facts which can be substantiated. =

Another bismarck story.

At moment when the battle of Sa-
dowa was as yet undecided, and when
indeed the Prussians appeared to be
losing ground. Bismarck was wander
ing over the battlefield like soul In
agony. Certain historians have gone
30 far rs to say that he kept loaded
revolver in his holster for tho express
purpose Of blowing his brains out II the
Austrians had won the day. Presently
he fell in with Won Moltke, who was
quietly looking on at the fight Being
anxious to arrive at an idea of the ex-
act state of affairs he pulled out his
cigar case, in which only two ''londres'
were left-one of them extra good and
the other of very inferior quality.
He handed the ease to Won Moltke,
who, after examining the cigars for q
long time, silently helped himself Ia
the best That was enough for the
chancellor. and he remarked 10 some
one Mt hand. when saw Won
Moltke use such deliberation in choos-
Ing his cigar, and above all when he
chose the best, knew that was sign
that things were going well with US. "
And he was right. San Francisco Ar
