The authorities in this country and on
the continent are everywhere awakening to
a sense of the necessity of supplying towns
with really good, nonpolluted water. In
ancient days every family had its own draw
well, and water was supplied by springs.
If one well became polluted, it at all events
did not interfere with the health of the next
door neighbOr.
But nowadays we all drink out of the
same can, as it were and when, as in the
case of the WOrthing supply, the water be

the necessity for doing so should exist.

boots, and with steering oar pushed oil
into the fierce current.
When the boat reached the cross cur
rent running between the wreck and the
shore where the buoy lines had been carried
so far astray, it was caught up like "a shell
from the power of the oarsmen and swept
rapidly to the leeward. The batlled men
returned to shore, and recalling the eNpe-

the life savers built up a cheerful fire on

Vast and populous as China, is the expe.
rience of the present century shows that
she is weak for aggressive purposes. She
has not the hold on territory adjacent to
her borders which she could claim hun
dred years ago European nations are
pressing on her, both on the south and on
the north. She has been forced to cede a
portion of her territory to England and
she has been compelled to avail herself of
the help of Englishmen, both for civil ad-
ministration and for military command.
All these things show that an expansion
Of the Chinese race does not necessarily in
volye an extension of Chinese dominion.
On the contrary they tend to prove that it
is the order introduced by European admin
istration which leads to the multiplication

therefore at least as much ground for say
ing that though BorneO, Sumatraa and New
Guinea and the great islands Of the eastern
archipelago may be ultimately peopled by
yellow races, they will be governed by the
white races as for believing that a new
Chinese empire is in process Of formation.

spectators and the sorely beset crew gave
warning that help must be speedy or it
would be too late. A sailor in the tOpmast
rigging, paralyzed by intense cold, anxiety
and toll, lost his hold and plunged into the
sea. The captain and his wife We're so over
come by the horrifying sight that they new
er rallied and died in their lashings un-
known to their distressed companions.
The mate with the babe in arms was the
first to take a seat in the buoy. Both
crews on shore hauled for dear life, and the
frail ark began its doubtful journey.
When the buoy was riding the surf about
half way between the wreck and the shore
the line on sh!pboard became entanglel
and could not be cleared by the exhausted
sailors in the rigging. In thar moment Of
terrible suspense the life savers decided t.

the wreck, then they could possibly han.
the precious burden ashore; but if between
the shore and the buoy, then the strong
sailor and his darling protegee would be
cast into the breakers, hopelessy beyond
the reach of aid. Putting all hands to the
rope the crews ran back on the beach, and
the line broke near the ship. Shouts of
joy arose above the clamOrous sea when
the proud mate and the blue and half
frozen but smiling orphan girl were lifted
from their icy car and hurried away to the
warm boathouse of Station 10.
But the connecting link between the lit
tie ark of safety and the stranded souls ON
the wreck mad been broken completely
when the hauling line was torn away from
the ship in order to save the mate and child.
The traveller rope was still stretched from
the shore to the vessels rigging, but the
buoy could not impel itself. The next best
thing was to attempt rescue with boat,
desperate and dangerous as it was with that
tremendous sea and those enormous break
ers. Even if boat should live TO reach
the wreck, how could she lie alongside to
take off the exhausted men clinging there?

outlines of human beings, some of them
moving about on the ropes and some as
still as mummes. One figure held long,
well mulled parcel clasped to the breast rs

treasure. The vessel was the schooner David
III. TulCk, from Cuba to New York with
cargo of sugar. She had struck at 3 o'clock
in the morning within 200 yards of the
beach and about half a mile from Life Saw

The people in the rigging were the cap.
tain of the schooner, Irving +. Sawyer, his
wife Ida Sawyer, and the crew of eight men.
Captain Sawyer and his wife were both sick
and were dashed TO the rigging to prevent
them from falling into the sea. The figure
with the bundle in its arms was second mate
Emanuel Clauseu, and the bundle was the
captains baby girl, Genevra Sawyer, aged
l year and months. The vessel struck, no
matter why nor how, as vessels always
have and always WILL in the wrong place.
The patrolman Of No. 10 saw the danger
and alarmed the corps at the station.
The sailors on shipboard attempted to
back the schooner from the bar, but found
that her bottom was crushed in, and in IA
few minutes the hold showed 10 inches of
water. There was nothing to do but await

The foreign horticultural papers speak
with some admiration of the American
chrysanthemums which We're shown at the
autumn exhibitions in Great Britain. In
the term American, however, they not only
include seedlings raised in this country, but
importations which have reached Europe
by way Of America
One writer, speaking of the competition
between the chrysanthemums raised IN
France and those raised in America, states
that the best of the new introductions
have come from this side of the Atlantic,
and, with the exception of the new flowers
sent out by NJ. Ernest Calvat, the gen
