No one will credit the Car with an in
tention of restoring serfdom in Russia
on the meagre information that has yet
been received from st. Petersburg, an
nuuncing such scheme. 1t scarcely
seems possible that he would think of
such a thing, with the discomfort and
restlessness that are already rife in that
empire. 1t would scarcely seem polite,
whatever the Cars personal wishes, in
view of the present situation in Europe,
and the possibility of Russia being in
volved in hostilities at any time. Least
of all would it seem credible that he
would select the present time, when half
of his realm is stricken with famine, to
take so backward step.

BRAVE LIGHT HOUSE KEEPER.
Saved the Crews of Two Vessels that Had
Stranded on Pilot Island.

CHICAGO, Nov. S-If Martin Kanutzen,
keeper of the lighthouse on Pilot island. at
the entrance to Green bay. does not
get gold medal, it will not be
because he does not deserve it,
for he saved two crews of vessels which
stranded on Pilot island during the recent
gales. The firstwas the schooner J. E. Gil
more and the second the schooner a. P.
Nichols. When Capt d. E. Glow, together
with the crew of the Nichols reached here.
he told the following story: 1--WE were bound
from Chicago to Escsnabs lights and
were driven on Pilot island. We both
had anchors out. but they failed to
hold us and the schooner went on the
rocks. As soon as she struck the steamer
went over. and It seemed as If mono OF US
reef of the rocks with shoal spots all around.
Kanutzen came down from the lighthouse,
and although 1t was s O'Clock at night and
intensely dark be picked his way through
the surf along ledge of rocks which came
us. He made himself heard above the storm
and told me to jump overheard. did so
and went In fer over my head. AS came
up he reached out fer me from the shelf OF
rock where he stood and pulled me mp near
him. Then others of the crew jumped in
one by one, Kanutzen selzing each one as
they came to she surface and pulling them
safely to the spot wnere he stood. My
aged father and the female cook jumped
overheard in the same way. He O armed
these two ashore picking his way along
the ledge, which was crooked and uncer-
tain. The rest of us followed him and all
got ashore safely. A single mishap would
have thrown us into deep water. The sea
was running heavy. and 1t was with the
utmost difficulty that we GOULD stay on our
feet. When We reached the lighthouse we
found that the crew of the Gilmore had
been there week, and were told that they
had been saved in the same way. The
crews made big inroads on the provisions
of the lighthouse keeper and had not tho
sea gone down so we could get the provis-
ions from our boats we might all have
starved"
