ried mile down the shore from where the |
boat upset, SO f1ercely did the lateral cur
rent run between the shoal and the beach. |
Again and again they had attempted to
land and were once almost on shore when
the undertow carried them out again. |
Surfmen Reeves and Inman drifted still
farther south and were hauled out Of the
water barely alive by the men OF the crews
who had witnessed the horrible catastrophe
from shore, powerless to aid the victims
Surfman John Soper, Keeper Ridgeway's
first assistant and an excellent swimmer,
battled heroically with the surf and
reached the swift lateral current in good
condition, but when within SO yards Of
shore an eddy carried him to sea again.
| After another hopeless struggle the watch
ers on shore saw his head sink forward,
and from that moment he made no further
effort, and when dragged from the surf
the spark of life had fled. The remaining
| member of the crew and the oldest man in
the party, Solomon Soper, lost conscious
ness soon after the boat capsized and was
dead when taken from the water The

crew shipwrecked in that frightful mid

was the Kralj evica, bound from Marseilles
to New York and carrying a crew of "A

northeast gale, keeping watch out for
Barnegat light But the impenetrable fog
yelled the brilliancy of that beacon as
well as the cliffs and bar, and without
warning the bark struck Barnegat shoals
q with such force as to crush the ribs and
planking of her hull. The sailors knew at
once that the ship was doomed, for the

were cast out in all directions. One Of

Miss Matte Wicker, the pleasing
comedienne, who appears at the opera
house Friday, Sept. 7th, is at present
the brightest and most versatile lady
in the profession, and in her new play
''The Circus Queen" she has ample OPP
portunity for display of her peculiar
talents. During the action of the play
Miss Vickers appears in three distinct
characters, s:Flossie," Katrina" and
s'Bobby Bantam and in each charac
ter introduces one Of her original
specialties. The other parts in the
play are as prominent and important
as the star part and are in thoroughly
capable hands. Mr.. Eric Pollock, who
takes the role of Hannibal Hurrah the
circus manager, is a competent come
dian of experience and introduces sew
eral new songs, dances, limitations, ETC.,
as does Edwin Russell, E. G. Avery.
Miss Margaret Hatch, Miss Elma Lati-
more the Spanish dancer, and in fact
all members of the company. Special
scenery is carried for. the production
: and the second act represents the in
terror of a circus tent and the surround
ing grounds. In this scene severa
novel and startling acts will be intro
duced illustrative of circus life. Moth
ing great is claimed for the play, j
having been written for laughing pur
poses only. Still it has a plot and
much stronger one than most of tn
farce-comedies of recent date.

cause is losing ground, we cry. Ebb

we take a view farther-reaching if we
go back a generation, and from that
point look forward to the present day
and make our comparison, we shall see
that there has been a very decided ad-
vance. If we go back to the time OF
the civil war, since that date in how
many states prohibitory legislation has
been enacted and the open sale Of
liquor abolished. Temperance in.
struction is now given in the public
schools of many of the states.
AS to the drinking usages of society
while there is much room for improve
ment yet, there is less room thar
formerly. The frown on the excessive
use' of liquor has deepened. To s'get
drunk" is a serious offense against
fashion in high places. Then look a
the organization of temperance senti
ment into societies. We will specify
only one, the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union. Across the country i
stretches a magnificent bulwarl
against the drink evil, long dixie
against the turbulent flood, and tn,
sharp vision of woman's conservation
is ever on the watch for any encroach
ment.

If we did not have SO much Old Worl

GROVER ALL RIGHT.

United States senators may roar and
rant over the way Uncle Grover has
stepped on their toes in the tariff mat
ter. but they will find the country sol
idly against them The senate mas
ceased to represent the great mass Of
our people on any question and its
tariff tinkering has been steadfastly
against the interest of the people and
for the benefit of the trusts and mo-
nopolies The makers of the constitu-
ton Dever intended that the senate
should make tariff bills That duty
was put upon the house of representa-
tives. The constitution Of the United
States. article J. section Z. provides
that "All bills for raising revenue
shall originate in the house of repre-
sentatives, but the senate may propose
or concur in amendments as on other
bills" The tariff bill passed by the
senate recently was almost a new
measure. The bill proposed by the
house was set aside and a thing Of
shreds and patches, to which every
senator contributed his own particular
measure of protection, was substituted
for 1t. The senate talks with III grace
OF the president usurpng somebody's
prerogative. when that body itself vio-
lated the constitution in spirit and In
letter.

Spring Valley, H.. Aug. |, Mayor
l.. Il. Jack, of this city, was arrested
yesterday morning. He is charged
with maltraSancc in office. Some time
ago Mayor Jack attempted To remove
tho police force and made new appoint
mcntS but the council refused to con
firm them. and the old force remained
on duty The mayor then told the new
appointceS to act and he would see
that they received their pay. Al the
next meeting the council refused To
allow any pay TO tho new ap-
pointrrS but paid the old force.
At every subsequent meeting of the
council the mayors police presented
bills, but none of them were ever al
lowed. At a recent meeting of the
council a committee was appointed To
examine the city trcaSurCr'S books and
to their surprise they discovered war
rants issued upon the treasury to the
non-ronhrmcd police without the coun-
ellis consent or knowledge. These war
rants were signed by the mayor and
aggregate between 800 and $500. A
special meeting of the council was
called and the mayor forced 10 put the
motion ordering his own arrest for mai

SEARCHING QUESTIONS.

Congressman Michael ID. Harter of
Ohio, of the house subcommittee ON
trusts puts some pertinent questions

trust. He tells him that If the trust
can be shown to be earning no more
than an average return ON actual CAPT
tai invested. he does nut know why
on the gOvernmeut'S charity list of
industries to be given some protection
as certain other businesses which have
been favored. 70 enable him to deter.
mine whether the trust should thus
Ike favored, he asks liaNrmtyrr TO
answer these questions
First-What is the present tax value
lthat is, cost of replacinGl of the
plants actually in operation and n,<'cs-
sary to produce the quantity of refined
sugar turned out by your company?
Sccond-Wha have been the actual
profits of the American sugar refining
company for each full fiscal year since
its organiza ton, and what are It's
profits so far in the current year?
Third What annual salary is paid
To each of its general officers?
Fourth-Wha hat is the actual paid-in
cash capital, including the plants
turned in at their real cash market
value. and what is the present sur
plaS fund of the company, including
all individual profits:
And we may rest assured the trust $
officers will not answer these QllcS-
lions. They dare not give Il truthful
answer to the public. They are even
now dcfying Massachusetts law simply
to avoid making public statement of
the last years financial operations of
the trust with the enormous profits
involved. Aud there are men in the
United States senate who know this
and know the reasons, and who vet
are insisting upon Il continuance OF
laws under which the pockets of the
people are being ritpd by the trust to
an almost unlimited extent.
